[In Vivo]

Tetraglycine and Triglycine (1.0 μmol glycine/g body wt, injected into a central vein) results in greater glycine concentration in the kidney than injection of either Glycine (HY-Y0966) or Diglycine[1]. Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (270-300 g)[1] Dosage: 1.0 μmol glycine/g body wt Administration: IV, injected over a period of 30 s Result: Five minutes after the Tetraglycine injection, there were accumulations of diglvcine, triglvcine, and Tetraglycine in the kidney.
