Alanine, with chemical formula C3H7NO2 and molecular weight of 89.09, is the basic unit of protein and one of the 20 amino acids that make up human protein. yes α- Alanine and β- Alanine is two isomers.
Purpose
Industry: raw materials for the synthesis of new sweeteners and some chiral pharmaceutical intermediates.
Medicinal: prevent kidney stones, assist glucose metabolism, help alleviate hypoglycemia and improve body energy.
Food Additives
(1) can improve the nutritional value of food, in all kinds of food and beverages, such as: bread, sorbet, fruit tea, dairy products, carbonated beverages, sorbet, etc. Adding 0.1-1% alanine can significantly improve the protein utilization rate in food and beverages, and because alanine can be directly absorbed by cells, it can quickly restore fatigue and cheer up after drinking.
(2) Improve the taste of artificial sweeteners (saccharin sodium, lensin, cyclamate, etc.), which can increase the sweetness and reduce the amount. Adding 1-10% alanine to the compound Sweetener can improve the sweetness and ease the sweetness of the artificial sweetener, just like the natural sweetener, so that the aftertaste is lasting. It is one of the raw materials for the synthesis of high-sweetness Alitame (L-Asparagine Chemicalbook acyl-D-alanamide, 600 times sweeter than sucrose).
(3) Improve the sour taste of organic acids. Adding 1-5% of organic acids to the mixture can improve the sour taste such as glacial acetic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, etc., so that the mixed sour taste is closer to the natural taste.
(4) The effect on pickled products. Adding 5-10% of the amount of salt can taste early and shorten the curing time.
(5) After adding L-alanine to alcoholic beverages, it can make the taste mellow, and can prevent the aging of beer and sparkling wine, reduce the yeast odor, and the addition amount is generally 1-3%.
(6) Adding 1-3% L-alanine to mayonnaise can prevent oxidation.
(7) Adding 2-3% to soybean meal products (such as soy sauce, etc.) can improve the taste.
