Product Overview

L-Asparagine Monohydrate (CAS 5794-13-8) is a non-essential amino acid.  It is widely used in the food industry as a nutritional fortifier to supplement amino acid nutrition in functional food and dietary supplements. It also acts as a flavor precursor and participates in the Maillard reaction during thermal processing, generating desirable aroma and color in baked and thermally processed food products. Besides food applications, it serves as an important nitrogen source raw material for cell culture and microbial fermentation in biotech research and production.  High purity grades can be used for pharmaceutical related nutrition formulation.

Character

L-Asparagine Monohydrate is the monohydrate form of L-Asparagine, featuring stable crystal structure under cool, dry sealed storage. It is soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol. Manufactured by microbial fermentation, it has high purity, low impurity content and stable batch consistency. It takes part in biological nitrogen transport and protein biosynthesis, widely adopted for food nutrition fortification and pharmaceutical nutritional preparations.

 

Main Functions

1.Amino Acid Supplementation — provides essential amino acid for protein biosynthesis

2.Nitrogen Metabolism Regulation — participates in nitrogen transport and metabolic balance

3.Nutritional Support — supports body normal physiological metabolism

4.Clinical Nutrition Formulation — key ingredient for compound amino acid infusion

5.Tissue Metabolism Support — maintains normal tissue cell metabolism

6.Nutritional Fortification — added into compound amino acid nutritional blends

 

Applications

1.Clinical Nutrition & Infusion Solutions — compound amino acid infusions, parenteral nutrition preparations

2.Dietary Supplements — capsules, tablets, compound amino acid powder formulas

3.Functional Food & Beverage — fortified functional food and nutritional drinks

4.Pharmaceutical Preparations — raw material for amino acid pharmaceutical intermediates
