L-Arginine (hydrochloride) (Standard) is the analytical standard of L-Arginine (hydrochloride). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. L-Arginine ((S)-(+)-Arginine) is the substrate for the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) to generate NO. L-Arginine is transported into vascular smooth muscle cells by the cationic amino acid transporter family of proteins where it is metabolized to nitric oxide (NO), polyamines, or L-proline. L-Arginine is a potent vasodilator, and can be used to induce experimental acute pancreatitis [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] .
