MeIQx-d3（Cat No.:R020488）is a deuterated form of the compound 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx), a mutagenic and carcinogenic heterocyclic amine found in cooked meats. The “d3” refers to the incorporation of three deuterium atoms, which are heavier isotopes of hydrogen, into the molecule. This modification allows for more accurate tracking and quantification of MeIQx in biological studies using techniques such as mass spectrometry. MeIQx-d3 is primarily used in research to investigate the metabolism, distribution, and excretion of MeIQx in animal models or human samples, as well as its role in cancer research.
