Frequently Asked Questions
What is D-Serine used for?
D-Serine (CAS 312-84-5) is the dextrorotatory enantiomer of the amino acid serine, supplied as a high-purity biochemical reagent and chiral building block. It is used in laboratory research, enantiopure organic synthesis, and as an intermediate for specialty derivatives.
What is the difference between D-serine and L-serine?
D-serine and L-serine are mirror-image enantiomers of the amino acid serine; L-serine is the proteinogenic form, while D-serine is the dextrorotatory form used as a chiral research reagent and synthesis building block. Both share formula C3H7NO3.
Where can I buy bulk D-Serine?
RawSource supplies D-Serine as a high-purity reagent for research and synthesis applications. Request a current CoA and SDS along with a bulk quote specifying your target purity, volume, and packaging.
What purity grade of D-Serine is available?
D-Serine is supplied as a high-purity biochemical reagent suitable for laboratory research and chiral synthesis. Exact purity and specifications vary by lot; request a current CoA to confirm before ordering.
What is the HS code for D-Serine?
D-Serine is classified under HS code 2922.49 (oxygen-function amino-acids and esters; other). Contact RawSource for a bulk quote with your volume and packaging requirements.
What is the REACH and TSCA regulatory status of D-Serine?
D-Serine (CAS 312-84-5) is subject to U.S. TSCA Inventory requirements; supplying it into the EU requires valid REACH registration ((EC) No 1907/2006). RawSource cannot verify a third-party supplier's registrations — buyers should require documented TSCA and REACH compliance for their jurisdiction and volume (EC 206-229-4).
