product description
Crystalline leaflets or a white, crystalline powder having a bitter taste. It is soluble in 25 parts of water, slightly soluble in hot alcohol, and soluble in diluted mineral acids and in alkaline solutions. It sublimes at between 168°C and 170°C, and melts with decomposition at about 284°C. The pH of a 1 in 100 solution is between 5.5 and 7.0.

Absolute: The absolute is prepared by alcoholic extraction of the concrete in approximately 55 to 60% yields. The absolute consists of a semisolid, olive-green mass with a characteristic ambergris odor.

Product Usage

L-Isoleucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) that plays a critical role in muscle metabolism, immune function, and hemoglobin synthesis. In the sports nutrition industry, it is a key component of BCAA formulations, working synergistically with leucine and valine to promote muscle recovery after intense exercise and prevent muscle breakdown. The pharmaceutical sector utilizes high-purity L-Isoleucine as a vital ingredient in parenteral and enteral nutrition infusions, providing essential metabolic support for patients recovering from trauma or surgery. In food science, it is used as a nutritional fortifier and flavor enhancer in specialized diets. Additionally, it serves as a high-value chemical intermediate in the synthesis of specialized peptides and surfactants. In the animal feed industry, it is increasingly used to optimize the amino acid profile in livestock diets to ensure healthy growth and efficient feed conversion.
