Product Information
| Description: | L-dihydroorotic acid (L-dihydroorotate) is an intermediate product of pyrimidine metabolism that can be reversibly hydrolyzed by dihydroorotase to yield acyclic L-ureidosuccinic acid. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
