What is Alanyl-glutamine?

Alanyl-glutamine is a chemical compound which in the form L-alanyl-L-glutamine is used in dietary supplementation, in parenteral nutrition, and in cell culture. It is a dipeptide consisting of alanine and glutamine. As a dietary supplement, alanyl-glutamine protects the gastrointestinal tract. The protective effect reduces bacterial translocation, thus reducing the risk of infections and infection-related problems such as diarrhea, dehydration, malabsorption, and electrolyte imbalance.

Function of Alanyl-glutamine

Alanyl glutamine is a white or off-white crystalline or crystalline powder; odorless; hygroscopic; soluble in water, soluble in glacial acetic acid, almost insoluble or insoluble in ethanol.
N(2)-L-alanyl-L-glutamine can be broken down into glutamine and alanine in the body, and its characteristics can be supplemented with glutamine via parenteral nutrition infusion. The amino acids released by the decomposition of the dipeptide are stored as nutrients in the corresponding parts of the body and are required to be metabolized by the random body. For the treatment of depletion of glutamine in the body, this product can be used for parenteral nutrition support.

Application of Alanyl-glutamine
Alanyl Glutamine Powder is the most abundant amino acid found in human muscle and plasma. Over 60% of the free-floating amino acid pool in skeletal muscle cells is made up of L glutamine. It is also a primary nitrogen donor, meaning that it moves the nitrogen around in the body to where it is needed. Maintaining a positive nitrogen balance is absolutely necessary for muscle building.
