 |  | [General Description] 
 
 Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. L-Lysine is an essential proteinogenic α-amino acid, containing basic side chain and is hydrophilic in nature. L-Lysine is actively used in the form of its acetate salt. It serves as a precursor for secondary metabolites, such as β-lactam antibiotics. It also serves as a precursor for the biosynthesis of α-aminoadipic acid. |  | [Biochem/physiol Actions] 
 L-Lysine is an essential proteinogenic α amino acid used in a wide range of applications including as a supplement in cell culture media; a substrate of enzymes such as L-lysine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.14); a component of poly-lysine polymers; and a substrate for oxidation and glycation mechanism studies.

 L-Lysine acetate (40 μg/kg; p.o.) ameliorates arterial calcification in adenine rats and protects the femora from osteoporotic changes in adenine rats[1].L-Lysine acetate (10 and 400 mg/kg; i.g. and p.o.; Male mice) inhibits pancreatic tissue damage[2].
 | Animal Model: | Male mice[2] |  | Dosage: | 10 and 400 mg/kg |  | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection and oral administration; for 15 days. |  | Result: | Inhibited the release of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 and enhance antioxidant activity. |
