3-Mercaptopropionic acid-d4 (Cat No.:I041494) is a deuterated form of 3-mercaptopropionic acid, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. It is used in chemical and biological research, particularly in studies involving sulfur-containing compounds, protein labeling, or metabolic tracking. The presence of deuterium makes MPA-d4 useful in mass spectrometry and other analytical techniques, enabling precise quantification and tracking of reactions. MPA itself is a thiol-containing compound, often employed in the synthesis of various chemicals and in the study of biochemical pathways and interactions involving sulfur.
