L-Argininamide is a hydrophilic amino acid derivative and can be used as a compound for ligand binding DNA aptamers. L-Argininamide has the potential for fluorescent aptasensors development[1].

ChEBI: L-arginine amide is an amino acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of L-arginine with ammonia. It is an amino acid amide, a member of guanidines and a L-arginine derivative. It is a conjugate base of a L-arginine amide(1+).
