Description
A type 1 glycine transporter inhibitorSarcosine is used in the production of biodegradable surfactants and toothpastes. It is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of antienzyme agents. It is found to be a marker for prostate cancer bioagression. It acts as a biochemical reagent, dye stabilizer, daily chemical, amino acid surfactants, health drugs fatigue recovery agent and so on. It is involved in the preparation of N-methyl-glycine ethyl ester by reacting with ethanol.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
