L-threonine powder
3 month agoWhat is L-threonine?
L-threonine, one of the amino acids, has a chemical formula of C₄H₉NO₃ and a molecular weight of 119.13. It is a white crystal or crystalline powder, odorless, and slightly sweet. Its melting point is about 256°C. It is easily decomposed in dilute alkali at high temperatures and slowly decomposes in acid. The purity of L-threonine is usually as high as 99%, which meets the strict requirements of food, medicine and other fields. It is an important nutritional enhancer and can be used as a food additive. It can also be used as a widely used health care material to regulate emotions and improve sleep. As an essential amino acid, it is widely used in medicine, chemical reagents, food enhancers and feed additives.

Functions and Applications:
Food additives: L-threonine is an important food additive and nutritional supplement in the food industry, and is widely used in dairy products, meat products, baked goods, flour-based foods, beverages, candies and other foods. It not only improves the nutritional value of food, but also produces caramel and chocolate aromas when heated with glucose, adding a unique flavor to the food.
Pharmaceutical raw materials: In the pharmaceutical field, L-threonine is an important pharmaceutical raw material. Due to its structural characteristics, it can promote phospholipid synthesis and fatty acid oxidation, and can maintain normal physiological functions of the human body. It can also be used as a pharmaceutical chemical to produce health foods, biological drugs, etc., providing strong support for the development of the pharmaceutical industry.
Feed additives: L-threonine is an essential amino acid additive in the feed industry. It is often added to the feed of young pigs and poultry to improve the nutritional value of the feed and promote the growth and development of animals. As the second limiting amino acid in pig feed and the third limiting amino acid in poultry feed, the addition of L-threonine can have a significant impact on feed formulation and animal production performance.

Introduction |
L-Threonine is an essential amino acid with the chemical name α-amino-β-hydroxybutyric acid, the molecular formula is C₄H₉NO₃, and the molecular weight is 119.12. It is a white crystal or crystalline powder with a slightly sweet taste and no odor. It is easily soluble in water and insoluble in ethanol and ether. The production methods of L-threonine mainly include microbial fermentation, chemical synthesis and protein hydrolysis. Among them, microbial fermentation has become the main production method due to its simple process and low cost. As an important essential amino acid, L-threonine has demonstrated its unique value and broad application prospects in many fields such as food, medicine, and feed. |
Function |
Nutritional fortification and supplementation: L-threonine is an important nutritional fortifier that can enhance the nutritional value of foods such as cereals, pastries, and dairy products. Like tryptophan, L-threonine helps to restore human fatigue and promote growth and development. In addition, it can also provide the necessary nutrition for patients who cannot eat normally and improve malnutrition. Enhance immunity: It can promote the proliferation and differentiation of lymphocytes and the production of antibodies in the body, thereby enhancing the body's immunity. This is of great significance for resisting diseases and maintaining health. Protect skin and promote metabolism: This amino acid contains hydroxyl groups, which has a water-holding effect on human skin and helps protect cell membranes. At the same time, it can also promote phospholipid synthesis and fatty acid oxidation, which has a positive effect on skin health and metabolism. Improve sleep quality: It also helps to relax brain nerves, thereby improving sleep quality. This is especially beneficial for people with neurasthenia and insomnia. |
