Description

Fructose-Histidine CAS NO 25020-13-7 is a specialized biochemical compound formed from the Maillard reaction between fructose and the amino acid L-histidine. This product is valued for its role as a key intermediate and flavor precursor in advanced food science and pharmaceutical research. It is primarily utilized by R&D laboratories and production facilities in the flavor & fragrance, nutraceutical, and life science sectors seeking to develop or enhance product profiles.

Application

• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: As a crucial precursor for creating savory, meaty, and roasted flavor notes (umami) in processed foods, seasonings, and reaction flavors.
• Nutraceutical & Pharmaceutical Research: Investigation into advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and their biological implications, serving as a reference standard or research chemical.
• Food Science & Development: Study of Maillard reaction pathways and kinetics to control flavor, color, and antioxidant development in thermal food processing.
• Biochemical Synthesis: Used as a building block or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex glycated peptides or novel bioactive compounds.
• Diagnostic Reagents: Potential application in the formulation of assay kits or calibrants for detecting glycation markers in clinical or food testing.

Quality Control

Our Fructose-Histidine is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise customer and research-grade specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a low-humidity environment to prevent product degradation and clumping.
