DL-Alanine is a food-grade racemic form of alanine, used as a flavour enhancer, nutrition fortifier and pharmaceutical intermediate in food and supplement applications.We supply bulk DL-Alanine sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder form for international food processing operations. Our DL-Alanine is widely used in sweetness enhancement, amino acid infusion solutions, pharmaceutical intermediates, condiments and animal nutrition.
DL-Alanine is produced by chemical synthesis from acetaldehyde and ammonia via the Strecker synthesis.
This yields the racemic mixture. It has a sweet, clean taste and is used as a food flavour modifier, nutrition enhancer in infusion solutions, and intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis.
