Description
L-phenylalanine is a colorless to white flaky crystal or white crystalline powder. L-Phe has a slightly special smell and a bitter taste. Stable in heat, light and air.L-phenylalanine is readily soluble in water, slightly soluble in methanol and ethanol, and insoluble in ether and benzene.
Advantages:
Essential amino acids: The human body cannot synthesize L-phenylalanine on its own and needs to obtain it through diet or supplements. L-Phe is a key component in protein synthesis.
Neurotransmitter precursors: L-phenylalanine can be converted into tyrosine, which further synthesizes neurotransmitters such as dopamine and adrenaline, regulating mood and cognitive function.
Metabolic support: L-Phe is involved in gluconeogenesis and fat metabolism, helping to maintain energy balance.
Special needs groups: L-phenylalanine is suitable for people with protein deficiency or those who need to recover quickly (such as athletes and postoperative patients).

Application
Nutritional fortifier
Infant formula milk powder: L-phenylalanine is an essential amino acid for fortification and promotes growth and development.Sports nutrition products (protein powder, energy bars) : L-Phe supports muscle repair and synthesis.
The synthetic raw material of aspartame
Aspartame is formed by the condensation of L-phenylalanine and aspartic acid. Replace sucrose in low-sugar/sugar-free beverages, chewing gum, yogurt and desserts to reduce calories.
Flavor-enhanced and functional foods
Bitterness masking: L-Phe combines with certain bitter substances to improve the taste (such as in plant protein beverages).Promote digestion and absorption: Add L-phenylalanine to functional beverages or dietary supplements to enhance protein utilization.
Fermented food additives
L-phenylalanine serves as a nitrogen source in fermented products such as soy sauce and miso, promoting microbial growth and enhancing flavor.
