Product Information
| Description: | Aminooxy-acetic acid (AOA) is a GABA transaminase (GABA-T) inhibitor (Ki = 9.16 μM) that induces GABA accumulation in the brain. It also inhibits cystathionine β synthase (CBS) and cystathionine γ lyase (CSE) with IC50 values of 8.5 and 1.1 μM, respectively. Aminooxyacetic acid (Carboxymethoxylamine) is a malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS) inhibitor. |
| 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. |
