**Product Overview** L-Aspartic Acid is an acidic amino acid with a wide range of applications in medicine (as a detoxifier and in the synthesis of drugs), food (as a souring agent), health supplements (for anti-fatigue), and industry (as a biodegradable material). It is characterized by good water solubility and its participation in metabolic cycles, such as the urea cycle. It is commonly available in the form of a white crystalline powder with a purity of ≥98%. **Chinese Names:** L-Aspartic Acid **English Names:** L-Aspartic Acid, Asparagic Acid **CAS Number:** 56-84-8 **Molecular Formula:** C4H7NO4 **Molecular Weight:** 133.10 **Structural Formula:** **Application Guidelines and Recommendations** **2.1 Food Industry** - **As a Nutritional Fortifier:** Used as a raw material for protein synthesis to supplement essential amino acids, especially for vegetarians or those with insufficient protein intake. - **Suggestions for Use:** - Add it to sports drinks, protein powders, or energy bars to enhance recovery after exercise when combined with branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). - Utilize in elderly food or special medical formula foods (FSMP) to support muscle health. - **Precautions:** - Comply with national regulations on amino acid addition (e.g., GB 14880 in China, FDA 21 CFR §172.320 in the US). - Avoid excessive intake; there is no strict upper limit for daily consumption in adults, but balance with other amino acids. **2.2 Pharmaceutical Industry** L-Aspartic Acid serves as a starting material for various pharmaceutical products, including aspartic acid ornithine, calcium aspartate, potassium aspartate, magnesium aspartate, and aspartic acid insulin. It is also used in the synthesis of sweeteners like aspartame and acesulfame potassium, as well as in the production of potassium polyaspartate, a stabilizer and coagulant. **2.3 Animal Husbandry** The powder or granules can be directly added to premixtures or complete feeds, or in the form of chelates (e.g., zinc aspartate, iron aspartate, magnesium aspartate) to improve mineral absorption. This can significantly enhance animal growth, improve health, reduce breeding costs, and offer energy, protein, and immune benefits. - **Dosage Recommendations:** - **Pig Feeds:** - **Weanling pigs:** 0.1–0.3% (better when combined with glutamine) to reduce weaning stress and increase feed intake; 0.2% increases daily weight gain by 8–12% when used with probiotics. - **Finishing pigs:** 0.05–0.15% to improve feed conversion and reduce backfat. - **Breeding pigs:** 0.1–0.2% to improve feed conversion and meat quality. - **Poultry Feeds:** - **Broilers:** 0.1–0.25% to promote muscle growth and improve feed conversion. - **Laying hens:** 0.05–0.15% to increase egg production and eggshell quality. - **Ruminants:** - **Cattle:** 50–100 g/day in the diet to enhance rumen microbial protein synthesis and reduce heat stress. - **Sheep:** 0.05–0.1% in concentrate feed. - **Fish Feeds:** 0.1–0.3% to increase feed intake and growth. **2.4 Agriculture** L-Aspartic Acid plays a crucial role in plant growth regulation, stress resistance, and nutrient absorption. It can be applied to seeds, leaves, or the soil to improve crop yield, quality, and disease resistance. - **Application Methods:** - **Seed Treatment:** Soak seeds in a 0.05–0.1% solution for 6–12 hours. - **Leaf Spraying:** Apply 0.1–0.3% solutions every 10–15 days during the growing season. - **Drought/Alkali Stress:** Use 0.3–0.5% solutions to improve stress resistance. - **Fertilization:** Apply 1–2 kg/acre in combination with organic fertilizers. **Quality and Packaging** We ensure stable quality at competitive prices. - **Product Assistants:** - **He Weiqiang:** +861513219856 - **Cao Kaidong:** +861512711972 - **Li Miaomiao:** +861510332711 - **He Ruihong:** +8613503208306 - **Li Miaomiao:** +8615103327112 **Compliance and Environmental Benefits** L-Aspartic Acid is naturally derived, with no residue risks. Its degradation products are carbon dioxide and water, making it environmentally friendly. It reduces nitrogen fertilizer usage and lowers pollution. **Production Capacity and Certifications** We have an annual production capacity of 30,000 tons and use a bioenzyme-catalyzed process to ensure natural safety. **Packaging and Storage:** - **Packaging Specifications:** Various sizes in food-grade PE and paper bags. - **Storage Conditions:** Store in a cool, dry place, sealed to prevent high temperatures and moisture. - **Shelf Life:** 24 months (unopened and sealed). **Additional Information:** - **Compliance Certifications:** BRC, FSSC 22000, ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, KOSHER, HALAL, FDA registration. - **Patents:** Several related to L-Aspartic Acid detection methods are under review. **Our Commitment:** We tailor packaging to your needs and provide comprehensive support, including formula guidance.
