Uses
5,6-Diaminopyrimidine-2,4-diol-13C3 Hydrochloride is an intermediate for the synthesis of Uric Acid-13C3 (U829204), which is a heterocyclcic compound that is created when purine nucleotides are broken down of by the human body. High blood concetration of Uric Acid is known as hyperuricemia and is often associated with a wide range of disorders and medical conditions such as gout, diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Uric acid may be a marker of oxidative stress and may have a potential therapeutic role as an antioxidant.
