Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) is the natural, active form of folic acid used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. Levomefolic acid has been used for research of cardiovascular disease and advanced cancers such as breast and colorectal cancers. Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) has the prominent antioxidant activity. A high dose of 5-MTHF or folic acid does not influence Natural killer (NK) cell function in vitro.

| 2'-Deoxyinosine
2′-Deoxyinosine is a nucleoside composed of hypoxanthine attached to 2′-deoxyribose via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. It is a DNA damage product resulting from the impairment of DNA by reactive nitrogen species. 2′-deoxyinsine can be used as a model compound to study the chemistry of adduct formation and radical chemistry that may affect DNA structures. 2′-Deoxyinosine is used to produce hybridization-sensitive fluorescent DNA probes with self-avoidance ability. |
| Ribitol
Ribitol (Adonitol) is a crystalline pentose alcohol formed by the reduction of ribose. |
| Glycodeoxycholic Acid
Glycodeoxycholic Acid is an endogenous metabolite. Glycodeoxycholic Acid induces hepatocyte necrosis and autophagy in patients with obstructive cholestasis. |
| Glycolithocholic acid
Glycolithocholic acid, an endogenous metabolite, is a glycine conjugated secondary bile acid. Glycolithocholic acid can be used to study ulcerative colitis (UC), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH0) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). |
| 4-Aminohippuric Acid
4-Aminohippuric acid is a typical substrate of organic anion transport systems. 4-Aminohippuric acid is a diagnostic agent, useful in medical tests involving the kidney, used in the measurement of renal plasma flow. |
