Aicar

Aicar, or 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide, serves as a valuable tool in metabolic research. It plays a role in the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which is crucial for cellular energy homeostasis. Researchers utilize Aicar to investigate its effects on metabolic pathways and potential implications in various physiological processes. Available in a 50mg strength, Aicar is intended strictly for research purposes.

Store lyophilized material at -20°C in a dry, light-protected environment. After reconstitution, store at 2–8°C and follow validated laboratory stability limits.

Requires reconstitution with bacteriostatic water if lyophilized prior to analysis. Handle under sterile lab conditions. Keep away from direct light exposure during mixing protocols.
