description Product Description
L-Tetrahydrofolic Acid is widely used in biochemical research and medical applications. It serves as a crucial coenzyme in the synthesis of amino acids and nucleic acids, playing a vital role in cell growth and division. In medicine, it is utilized in the treatment of folate deficiency and related conditions, such as megaloblastic anemia. It is also employed in prenatal care to support fetal development and prevent neural tube defects. Additionally, L-Tetrahydrofolic Acid is used in metabolic studies to understand one-carbon transfer reactions and in the development of therapeutic agents targeting folate-dependent pathways. Its applications extend to nutritional supplements, where it aids in maintaining optimal folate levels in the body.
