N-(4-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid is an oxidation product and a metabolite of tetrahydrofolate.1Levels of N-(4-aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid are increased in the plasma of mice fed a high folic acid-containing diet.2 1.Reed, L.S., and Archer, M.C.Oxidation of tetrahydrofolic acid by airJ.

L-Glutamic acid-15N is the 15N-labeled version of L-Glutamic acid, an excitatory neurotransmitter and an agonist at metabotropic, kainate, NMDA, and AMPA glutamate receptor subtypes. It directly activates the release of dopamine (DA) from dopaminergic terminals.
DL-Glutamic acid, the conjugate acid of Glutamic acid, serves as a crucial metabolite. In comparison to the α and β polymorphs of L-Glutamic acid's second phase, DL-Glutamic acid exhibits enhanced stability[1].
