Description
L-Glutamine Product Overview
L-Glutamine (C5H10N2O3) is a white crystalline powder that dissolves in water. In solution it slowly degrades, especially when heated, so it is usually added to products as a dry powder. It is produced by fermentation.
In addition, producers of nutritional products use it in sports recovery powders and capsules, often combined with BCAA. Similarly, medical nutrition producers use it in enteral and parenteral formulas, and biotechnology companies use high-purity grades in cell culture media. Food producers also use it in protein drinks and bars.
Notably, related amino acids in our range include L-Arginine, Glycine and Taurine.
