Glycine (Standard)
- CAS Number: 56-40-6
- UNSPSC Description: Glycine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Glycine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS and also acts as a co-agonist along with glutamate, facilitating an excitatory potential at the glutaminergic N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors. Glycine is orally active. Glycine can be used to study cell protection, cancer, neurological diseases, and angiogenesis[1][2][3][4][5][6].
