200 mM L-glutamine (100 X)

200mM L-glutamine solution (100-times). L-Glutamine is an amino acid that is essential for cell culture. L-Glutamine is used in the formation of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, amino sugars, glutathione, L-glutamate, and other amino acids, as well as in protein synthesis and glucose production. Unlike most other amino acids, L-glutamine is not stable in solution. The rate at which degradation proceeds is a function of time, temperature, and pH. Genaxxon L-glutamine is a ready-to-use 200mM stock solution that acts as a cell culture supplement. The optimal concentration is dependent upon the cell type and medium used to culture the cells, but generally falls in the range of 2–6mM. Genaxxon offers also a stable glutamine (L-alanyl-L-glutamine) which is not degraded in solution and can be used by cells instead of L-glutamine.
