L-谷氨酸是哺乳动物中枢神经系统（CNS）中主要的兴奋性神经递质。它与膜结合的谷氨酸受体相互作用。 L-谷氨酸单钠盐水合物被用作- • 大鼠海马切片培养物的化学调节剂，用于研究偏头痛发作前小胶质细胞的运动 • Neurobasal培养基的添加剂，用于培养从怀孕小鼠获得的胚胎神经元 • GYE（葡萄糖酵母提取物）固体培养基的成分，用于培养植物病原体叶缘焦枯病菌 的四种菌株，即CVC克隆9a5c、Temecula（皮尔斯氏病）、Jab1（咖啡叶焦病）和分离株6747（李叶焦枯病） ，这一病原体会导致重要农作物生病 • 储备溶液的成分，用于平衡果蝇幼虫 • 腹神经节节段神经细胞内外[H+] RPMI（Roswell Park Memorial Institute）培养基1640的补充剂，用于供养每周传代两次的K562细胞培养物。 L-glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in mammalian central nervous system (CNS). It interacts with membrane bound glutamate receptors. L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt hydrate has been used- • as a chemical modulator to rat hippocampal slice cultures for the study of microglial movement post spreading depression (SD) prior to migraine • as an additive to Neurobasal medium for the growth of embryonic neurons obtained from pregnant mice • as a component of GYE (glucose yeast extract) solid medium for the growth of four strains of phytopathogen Xylella fastidiosa namely, CVC clone 9a5c, Temecula (Pierce’s disease), Jab1 (Coffee Leaf Scorch), and the isolate 6747 (Plum Leaf Scald), which causes diseases in important crop plants • as a component of the stock solution for the equilibration of intracellular and extracellular [H+] in segmental nerves obtained from the ventral ganglion of Drosophila larvae • as a supplement to RPMI (Roswell Park Memorial Institute) medium 1640 used to maintain K562 cell cultures with twice-weekly passage.
