Description

Potassium L-Alaninate is the potassium salt of the essential amino acid L-Alanine. This high-purity, water-soluble compound is valued for its role as a stable and bioavailable source of L-Alanine in critical formulation processes. It serves as a key intermediate and buffering agent for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and high-end cosmetic industries, where precise pH control and ingredient quality are paramount.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Used as a chiral building block and buffering agent in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and peptide-based drugs.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Incorporated as a stable mineral-amino acid chelate in formulations designed to support muscle metabolism and recovery.
• Biochemical Research & Cell Culture: Serves as a component of defined media and buffer systems in microbiological and cell culture applications.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Functions as a skin-conditioning agent and pH adjuster in high-performance serums, lotions, and moisturizers.
• Food Science: Employed as a flavor enhancer and pH regulator in specialized food products and flavor systems.

Quality Control

Our Potassium L-Alaninate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, chiral purity, and heavy metal content 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 controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept in a dry environment to prevent caking and degradation.
