Description
Beta-Alanine Product Overview
Beta-alanine (C3H7NO2) is a white crystalline powder that dissolves easily in water and has a slightly sweet taste. Unlike alpha-alanine, its amino group sits on the beta carbon, so it is not built into proteins. In the body, it combines with histidine to form carnosine.
Producers of sports and nutritional products use it in powders, pre-workout blends, tablets and capsules, under the regulations of each market. Single high doses can cause a harmless tingling sensation, which is why sustained-release forms exist. In the chemical industry, it is the starting material for calcium pantothenate, the commercial form of vitamin B5, available in our range as Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B5).
It is often combined with other amino acids and sports ingredients such as Creatine monohydrate, Glycine and Taurine.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the tingling sensation associated with it?
Higher single doses can cause a harmless, temporary tingling of the skin (paresthesia). Sustained-release forms and divided doses reduce it.
What is the difference between beta-alanine and L-alanine?
They are isomers; L-alanine is a protein amino acid, while beta-alanine is not built into proteins and forms carnosine in the body.
How can I get a price and documents?
Prices depend on quantity, packaging and destination. Contact us with your required volume to receive a quotation together with the CoA and SDS.
