2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid (HY-W008150). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid is an alpha-hydroxy analogue of valine and a valine precursor that reduces urea excretion. 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid can promote the growth of chickens and rats, and is converted into valine in the body, participating in protein synthesis and maintaining nitrogen balance, thereby supporting animal growth and development. 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid has a more significant effect on the valine-deficient dietary model. 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid is mainly used in animal nutrition research to evaluate its potential application as a nitrogen source substitute in feed.
