Atomfair Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride ALA HCl, 5-ALA HCl C5H10ClNO3 CAS 5451-09-2

Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride (ALA HCl) is a highly purified, pharmaceutical-grade compound with the molecular formula C5H10ClNO3and CAS number 5451-09-2. This derivative of 5-aminolevulinic acid is widely used in photodynamic therapy (PDT), dermatology, and oncology due to its role as a precursor in the biosynthesis of heme and porphyrins. When applied topically or administered systemically, ALA HCl is metabolized into protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), a photosensitizer that accumulates preferentially in rapidly dividing cells, enabling targeted destruction under light exposure. Our product is rigorously tested for purity (≥98%) and consistency, ensuring optimal performance in clinical and research applications. Available as a white to…

Description

Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride (ALA HCl) is a highly purified, pharmaceutical-grade compound with the molecular formula C5H10ClNO3 and CAS number 5451-09-2. This derivative of 5-aminolevulinic acid is widely used in photodynamic therapy (PDT), dermatology, and oncology due to its role as a precursor in the biosynthesis of heme and porphyrins. When applied topically or administered systemically, ALA HCl is metabolized into protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), a photosensitizer that accumulates preferentially in rapidly dividing cells, enabling targeted destruction under light exposure. Our product is rigorously tested for purity (≥98%) and consistency, ensuring optimal performance in clinical and research applications. Available as a white to off-white crystalline powder, it is soluble in water and compatible with standard laboratory protocols. Ideal for studies involving PDT, fluorescence-guided surgery, and cellular metabolism research.

Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride is primarily used in photodynamic therapy (PDT) for treating actinic keratosis, basal cell carcinoma, and other skin conditions. It also serves as a diagnostic tool in fluorescence-guided tumor resection, where it highlights malignant tissue under blue light. Researchers utilize ALA HCl to study porphyrin biosynthesis pathways and oxidative stress responses in cellular models. Its role in enhancing PpIX accumulation makes it valuable for investigating mitochondrial function and cancer therapeutics.
