Description
AICAR (50MG) — Research Material
AICAR (Acadesine) is a cell-permeable imidazole carboxamide nucleoside analogue that functions as a direct activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Upon intracellular phosphorylation to ZMP (5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5'-monophosphate), this compound mimics AMP to allosterically activate AMPK without altering intracellular ATP, ADP, or AMP ratios. Provided as a lyophilized powder intended exclusively for in vitro scientific, academic, and industrial laboratory research applications.
Each ChoicePeps research vial is batch identified and supported by available batch-specific analytical documentation to assist researchers with material identification, verification, and laboratory recordkeeping.
The 50MG presentation provides a standard-format option for laboratory research applications while maintaining ChoicePeps standards for batch identification, independent analytical testing, and transparent documentation.
