L-Ascorbic acid, cell culture, known as Vitamin C, is an essential micronutrient that fulfills roles in various biological processes. It necessitates regular intake to sustain optimal health since the body does not store it. L-Ascorbic acid, cell culture participates in numerous physiological and biochemical functions, including collagen synthesis, immune system support, and antioxidant defense. Moreover, it exhibits protective effects against the detrimental impact of radiation and oxygen radicals. It possesses properties such as promoting mineralization in osteoblasts, engaging in hydroxylation processes of proline and lysine, reducing Na+/Ca2+ exchange in cultured astrocytes, and modulating cyclic nucleotide levels in B and T cells.
