L-Arginine monohydrochloride is a precursor of nitric oxide synthesis that induces vasodilation, there by relaxing blood vessels. It is an important intermediate in the urea cycle and involved in the detoxification of nitrogenous wastes. It is commonly used in cell culture media and drug development.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
