Uses and synthesis of L-Citrulline powder

L(+) -2-amino-5-urevaleric acid, also known as L-Carnosine, is a dipeptide consisting of β-alanine and histidine. Colorless crystal or white crystalline powder. L-Citrulline powder is soluble in water and weak acid, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in ether. It is relatively stable at room temperature, but is easily degraded under acidic conditions. It is relatively stable in the pH 3-7 range and can maintain its functional activity. L-Citrulline has many physiological activities such as anti-oxidation, anti-aging, anti-saccharification, cell protection and metal ion chelation.

Applications/Functions of L-Citrulline powder

• L-Citrulline powder has antioxidant and anti-glycation properties that help reduce oxidative stress and the aging process caused by protein glycation.
• Cell protection: L-carnosine protects cells from oxidative stress and damage and promotes cell growth and repair.
• Exercise performance: L-carnosine can improve muscle endurance and durability and delay the occurrence of muscle fatigue.

Physicochemical Property of L-Citrulline powder

White crystalline powder, soluble in water but insoluble in methanol and ethanol due to polar side chains.

Production methodprocess of L-Citrulline powder

The common way to prepare L-Citrulline powder is through the condensation reaction of β-alanine and histidine, which usually requires a catalyst and suitable solvent conditions.
