Physical and Chemical Properties | Bioactive 2-Ketoglutaric acid Sodium (Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid Sodium) is an intermediate product of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and is simultaneously linked to glutamic acid and glutamine metabolism through transamination. |
In vitro study | 2-Ketoglutaric acid Sodium (Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid Sodium) has other physiological capabilities including reduction of ammonia level formed in the lung and general ammonia detoxification, protective role against lipid peroxidation and neuroprotective effect against cyanide poisoning. 2-Ketoglutaric acid Sodium acts as precursor for the synthesis of amino acids and nucleotides. |
Hazard Symbols | T - Toxic |
Risk Codes | R23/24/25 - Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. R36/37/38 - Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. |
Safety Description | S26 - In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. S36/37/39 - Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. S45 - In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label whenever possible.) |
