L-Glutamic Acid NEW

Glutamate is commonly found in nature. A variety of foods and human body contain glutamate, which is one of the structural amino acids of proteins or peptides, and free amino acids, L-glutamic acid is more delicious. Glutamic acid was discovered by Risothson in 1856. It is colorless crystal, with fresh Chemicalbook flavor, slightly soluble in water, but soluble in hydrochloric acid solution, isoelectric point 3.22. It's found in large quantities in cereal proteins and in the brains of animals. Glutamate plays an important role in protein metabolism and is involved in many important chemical reactions in animals, plants and microorganisms.

Usages:
L-glutamic acid is mainly used in the production of monosodium glutamate, flavoring, and used as a substitute for salt, nutritional supplements and biochemical reagents. L-glutamic acid itself can be used as a drug to participate in the metabolism of protein and sugar in the brain and promote the oxidation process. The product combines with ammonia in the body to form non-toxic glutamide, which makes the blood Chemicalbook ammonia decrease and reduces the symptoms of liver coma. It is mainly used to treat hepatic coma and severe hepatic insufficiency, but the effect is not very satisfactory. Combined with antiepileptic drugs, it can treat minor seizures and psychomotor seizures. Racemic glutamate is used in the production of drugs, but also used as a biochemical reagent, etc.
