Description

5'-Inosinic Acid Disodium Salt Hydrate is a high-purity nucleotide salt widely used as a flavor enhancer and a key biochemical intermediate. Its primary commercial value lies in its ability to synergistically amplify the umami taste of monosodium glutamate (MSG) in food systems and its role as a critical precursor in nucleic acid synthesis. This product is essential for manufacturers in the food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries seeking to improve product flavor profiles or produce nucleotides and related compounds.

Application

• Food & Beverage Flavor Enhancer: Used as a potent umami taste enhancer, often in combination with MSG, in soups, sauces, snacks, and processed meats.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a crucial building block in the synthesis of antiviral drugs, nucleotide analogs, and other active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research & Cell Culture: Employed in media formulations and as a substrate in enzymatic studies and metabolic pathway research.
• Diagnostic Reagent Production: Used in the manufacture of diagnostic kits and reagents for clinical and research laboratories.
• Nutritional Supplementation: Incorporated into specialty nutritional products and supplements for its nucleotide content.
• Feed Additive: Applied in animal nutrition to enhance feed palatability and support animal health.

Quality Control

Our 5'-Inosinic Acid Disodium Salt Hydrate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets specifications for identity, purity, and safety, aligning with standards such as FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) for food-grade applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, heavy metals, residual solvents, and microbiological data is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
