GlutaPlus（L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine）,609-066

L-Glutamine plays an important role in cell culture, providing energy for cell growth and serving as a primary material for the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins. It also acts as an alternative energy source for rapidly dividing cells or those unable to efficiently utilize glucose. However, L-glutamine is an unstable essential amino acid that spontaneously degrades, producing toxic ammonia, which can harm cells. GlutaPlus (L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine) is a dipeptide of L-glutamine that can effectively improve this adverse phenomenon.

GlutaPlus is a commonly used cell culture additive that functions stably in cell culture media without self-degrading to produce toxic substances. It boasts extremely high bioavailability and can replace L-glutamine, thereby enhancing cell growth vitality, prolonging cell culture duration, reducing the frequency of necessary cell passaging, and improving cell culture efficiency.

WISENT provides individually packaged 100× GlutaPlus (200 mM) solution, which can replace L-glutamine at an equimolar concentration in culture medium and be directly used for cell culture.
