Description

L-Lysine Monosalicylate is a high-purity, organically bound form of the essential amino acid L-Lysine, complexed with salicylic acid. This specific salt form enhances stability and bioavailability, making it a critical ingredient for advanced nutritional and pharmaceutical formulations. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the human and animal nutrition, dietary supplement, and pharmaceutical industries seeking a reliable, high-quality source of this vital nutrient.

Application

• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: As a bioavailable source of L-Lysine in capsules, tablets, and powder blends for immune support and protein synthesis.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of more complex active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and as a component in parenteral nutrition solutions.
• Animal Feed & Pet Food Fortification: Enhances the amino acid profile in feed for poultry, swine, and aquaculture to promote optimal growth and health.
• Food & Beverage Fortification: Incorporated into functional foods, sports nutrition products, and medical foods to boost nutritional value.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Utilized in skincare formulations for its potential role in collagen production and skin barrier function.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a defined component in cell culture media and microbiological growth media for laboratory studies.

Quality Control

Our L-Lysine Monosalicylate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for nutritional and pharmaceutical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request. We can supply grades compliant with relevant specifications, including Food Chemical Codex (FCC) and in-house pharmaceutical standards.

Storage

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