Factory Supply Pure Glycine Powder CAS14281-83-5

Glycine is Amino acid series of 20 members of one of the most simple in structure, also known as amino acetic acid, an Amino Acid that's not necessary for the human body, both acidic and basic functional groups in the molecule, in water solution as strong electrolyte, in strong polar solvent solubility is bigger, basic not soluble in nonpolar solvents, and has high boiling point and melting point, Glycine can take on different molecular morphology by adjusting its acidity and alkalinity in aqueous solution. Glycine's side bond is a hydrogen atom. Since its alpha carbon also has a hydrogen atom, glycine is not optically isomeric.

Because glycine's side bonds are so small, it can take up space that no other amino acid can, for example, as an amino acid inside a Collagen helix. At room temperature, it is white crystal or light yellow crystalline powder. It has a unique sweet taste, which can moderate the acid and alkali taste, mask the bitter taste of added saccharin in food and enhance the sweetness. If the amount of glycine ingested by the human body is too much, it will not only be absorbed and utilized by the human body, but also break the absorption balance of amino acids and affect the absorption of other amino acids, leading to nutritional imbalance and affect health.

With glycine as the main raw material to produce milk containing drinks, adolescents and children's normal growth and development is easy to bring adverse effects. The density of 1.1607. Melting point 232~236℃ (decomposition). Soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol and diethyl ether. Can react with hydrochloric acid to form hydrochloride. In the muscles of the dry lower hauls. It can be formed by the action of monochloroacetic acid and ammonium hydroxide, and can also be hydrolyzed and refined from gelatin.
