Usages:

Medicine usages

(1) L-alanine is an important raw material for synthesizing VB6 and is one of the components of the nutritional supplement "Sperm Amino Acid Nutrition Infusion".

(2) "Amino Acid Injection-800" with L-alanine as the main ingredient is mainly used to treat liver and brain diseases, and promote the rapid awakening of patients with hepatic coma. It is also a good diuretic.

Food additive usages

(1) It can improve the nutritional value of food. In various foods and beverages, such as bread, ice cream, fruit tea, dairy products, carbonated beverages, ice cream, etc. Adding 0.1~1% alanine can significantly increase the protein utilization rate in food and beverages. Because alanine can be directly absorbed by cells, drinking it can quickly restore fatigue and invigorate the spirit.

(2) Improve the taste of artificial sweeteners, increase sweetness and reduce dosage. Adding 1~10% alanine to compound sweeteners can increase sweetness and make the sweetness softer like natural sweeteners, and improve the taste.

(3) Alanine is also one of the raw materials for synthesizing highly sweet alitame (L-asparagine-D-alanineamide, 600 times sweeter than sucrose).

(4) Biochemical research. Tissue culture. Liver function test.

(5) Used as a flavor enhancer. It can increase the flavoring effect of condiments; it can also be used as a sourness corrector to improve the sourness of organic acids.
