The Characteristics and Uses:
Lysine is mainly used as food enhancing agents, pharmacy, and feedstuff additives.
1. Used for food industry
Lysine is one of important compositions of protein. The body requires Lysine which is one of eight essential amino acids, but cannot synthesize it so it must be provided in the diet. For a good enhancing agent, to add lysine into potables, rice, flour, will rise up the rate for utilizing protein so that it can enhance food nutrition greatly. It is also efficient dietary supplement in improving growth, adjust appetite, reduce diseases, and make body stronger. It can deodorize and keep fresh in tinned food.
2. Used in pharmaceutical industry
Lysine is available for formatting compound amino acid infusion and making effection better than hydrolytic protein and less side-effect. It can be made nutritional enhancing agent with various vitamins and glucoses, and is easily absorbed in gastrointestine after oral. Lysine can also better performances of some drugs and improve their efficiency.
Transport and Storage:
Load and unload slightly, protect them from moisture and exposure. Do not transport them together with poisionous or harmful goods. Stored in drying, cleaning, shaded places and sealed containers. The expiry date is for two years. |
