L-NMMA acetate is a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor of all NOS isoforms, with Ki values of approximately 0.18, 0.4, and 6 µM for nNOS (rat), eNOS (human), and iNOS (mouse), respectively. It acts by inhibiting the generation of NO from arginine. L-NMMA acetate is an endothelium-derived relaxing factor inhibitor.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
