    General description

    Folic acid, also known as pteroyl-L-glutamic acid, belongs to the vitamin B group. The conformational analysis of folic acid in the solution has been reported based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and theoretical calculations.[1] The reaction kinetics of the photodecomposition under ultraviolet radiation has been investigated.[2] This product is a high quality pharmacopoeia product that meets the testing specifications of USP (United States Pharmacopoeia). It can be employed in research and pilot studies.

    Application

    Folic acid has been used in a study to investigate its protective effects against the toxicity caused by valproic acid (VPA) on maternal liver tissue.[3] It has also been used as standard for the quantification of plasma folic acid by reversed-phase HPLC.[4]
