L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine Solution (200 mM) is commonly called “Stable Glutamine”. This is a ready-to-use stock solution used to supply L-glutamine, an essential amino acid that is a required additive to most cell culture media. L-glutamine facilitates the storage and transfer of nitrogen to the cells in culture. Glutamine is also one of the most readily available amino acids for use as an energy source when glucose levels are low and energy demands are high, especially for rapidly proliferating cell types or cells cultured under hypoxic conditions, where glucose metabolism is less efficient.
