| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride does not exhibit direct in vitro biological activity as it is an isotopically labeled tracer. However, the parent compound L-Lysine is an essential amino acid involved in protein synthesis and calcium absorption. In cell culture studies, L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride is used to trace lysine metabolic pathways by monitoring the incorporation of 13C into downstream metabolites using mass spectrometry. |
| ln Vivo |
L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride is not administered as a therapeutic agent; it is used as a metabolic tracer in in vivo studies. When administered to animal models, it allows researchers to track lysine metabolism and its role in protein synthesis, calcium absorption, and gut health. The labeled compound is used to study amino acid metabolism in healthy and diseased states.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride are not applicable, as it is a metabolic tracer rather than a bioactive compound. Quality control assays involve HPLC or mass spectrometry to verify isotopic purity (≥98 atom % 13C) and chemical purity (≥98%). The compound is also tested for solubility and stability under recommended storage conditions. It is soluble in water.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride involve metabolic tracing studies rather than traditional bioactivity assays. Cells are cultured in media containing L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride, and the incorporation of 13C into metabolites such as proteins and other amino acids is measured by LC-MS or GC-MS. These studies allow researchers to quantify lysine flux through various metabolic pathways.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride involve metabolic tracing experiments. Animals are administered the labeled lysine via oral or intravenous routes. Blood, tissues, and excreta are collected at various time points, and the 13C enrichment in metabolites is measured by mass spectrometry. These studies provide insights into whole-body lysine metabolism, including protein turnover and amino acid utilization.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride has a molecular formula of 13C6H15ClN2O2 and a molecular weight of 188.60. It has a purity of ≥98% and an isotopic enrichment of ≥98 atom % 13C. It appears as a solid. The compound is stable under recommended storage conditions. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride is not extensively characterized, as it is a stable isotope-labeled tracer rather than a therapeutic agent. The parent compound L-Lysine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is generally recognized as safe. Standard safety data for handling isotopically labeled compounds in laboratory settings would apply. L-Lysine-13C6 hydrochloride is intended for research use only and is not approved for clinical use.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
