Product Technical Details

Product Overview

L-Glutamine stands as one of the most abundant free amino acids found in the human body, playing a pivotal role in various metabolic processes. Although classified as a non-essential amino acid under normal physiological conditions, it is widely recognized as a conditional essential amino acid. This distinction arises because endogenous synthesis may become insufficient during periods of severe metabolic stress, illness, or intense physical exertion. Our premium grade L-Glutamine is manufactured under strict quality control systems to ensure consistent purity and performance for diverse industrial applications.

We specialize in supplying high-quality L-Glutamine that meets rigorous international pharmacopeia standards. Our production facility utilizes advanced fermentation and purification technologies to deliver a product with exceptional stability and solubility. This ensures that formulators and researchers can rely on our material for critical applications where consistency is paramount.

Quality Assurance and Compliance

Quality is the cornerstone of our manufacturing philosophy. Every batch of L-Glutamine is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA). Our product complies with the requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), Japanese Pharmacopeia (JP), and Food Chemicals Codex (FCC). We maintain strict control over residual solvents and impurities to ensure safety for human consumption and sensitive biological applications.

Storage and Handling

To maintain optimal quality, L-Glutamine should be stored in a tight container at controlled room temperature. The product is hygroscopic and should be protected from moisture and direct sunlight. Proper storage ensures the longevity of the material and preserves its physical characteristics over time. We offer flexible packaging options, including 25kg and 50kg drums, to suit various logistical requirements for global shipment.
