R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid CAS:1200-22-2 Manufacturer Supplier
R-(+)-α-Lipoic acid was shown to significantly increase pyruvate oxidation while abrogating fatty acid oxidation in rat hepatocytes. These effects make R-(+)-α-Lipoic acid a promising treatment option for the treatment of Type II diabetes. It is a biological antioxidant with prooxidant activities, its therapeutic potential is widely investigated, e.g. in the treatment for Alzheimer′s disease.α-Lipoic acid has been used as a reference standard for the analysis of α-lipoic acid in human plasma by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to electron capture detector (HPLC-ECD), in various food matrices and dietary supplements by HPLC combined with coulometric electrode array detector (CEAD) as well as electrospray ionization mass spectrometer (ESI-MS).It may be used as a reference standard for the determination of α-lipoic acid in human urine by isocratic reversed-phase HPLC and in α-lipoic acid capsules by HPLC with chemiluminescence detection.
