Product Description

Product Description

 

1. Basic Information
   • Definition: Branched - chain amino acids (BCAAs) refer to amino acids with a branched - chain structure in the side chain of α - amino acids, mainly including leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
   • Chemical Formula and Molecular Weight
     • Leucine: The chemical formula is C6H13NO2, and the molecular weight is 131.17.
     • Isoleucine: The chemical formula is C6H13NO2, and the molecular weight is 131.17.
     • Valine: The chemical formula is C5H11NO2, and the molecular weight is 117.15.
   • CAS Number
     • Leucine: 61 - 90 - 5.
     • Isoleucine: 73 - 32 - 5.
     • Valine: 72 - 18 - 4.
2. Physical Properties
   • Appearance: They are all white crystalline or crystalline - powder substances.
   • Solubility
     • Leucine: Slightly soluble in water, with a solubility of about 2.19g/100g water at 20°C. It is easily soluble in acid and alkali solutions and almost insoluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.
     • Isoleucine: Slightly soluble in water, with a solubility of about 4.12g/100g water at 20°C. It can dissolve in dilute acid and dilute alkali solutions and is difficult to dissolve in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.
     • Valine: Has a slightly better solubility in water, with a solubility of about 8.85g/100g water at 20°C. It can also dissolve in acid and alkali solutions and is insoluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.
   • Melting Point
     • Leucine: 293 - 295°C.
     • Isoleucine: 285 - 286°C.
     • Valine: 315 - 317°C.
3. Chemical Properties
   • Stability: They are relatively stable under normal storage conditions, but may decompose under extreme conditions such as high temperature, strong acid, and strong alkali. For example, under acidic conditions, the amino group may undergo a protonation reaction; under alkaline conditions, the carboxyl group may undergo a de - protonation reaction.
   • Chemical Reactions: They have the general chemical properties of amino acids and can undergo a condensation reaction to form peptide bonds, which is the basis of protein synthesis. At the same time, they can also form complexation reactions with certain metal ions.
4. Physiological Functions
   • Muscle Protein Synthesis: Leucine plays a crucial role in stimulating muscle protein synthesis and is an important signaling molecule for regulating protein metabolism. It can activate the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway to promote muscle growth and repair. For example, after strength training, supplementing with leucine helps accelerate muscle recovery and growth.
   • Energy Metabolism: During long - term exercise or when energy intake is insufficient, branched - chain amino acids can be oxidatively metabolized in muscles to provide energy for the body. Valine and isoleucine participate in transamination and deamination processes during this process, generating corresponding keto - acids and entering the tricarboxylic acid cycle to produce energy.
   • Regulating Blood Glucose Levels: They can help stabilize blood glucose to a certain extent. For example, they can reduce muscle protein breakdown and gluconeogenesis, thus avoiding excessive increase in blood glucose.
5. Production Methods
   • Fermentation Method: Production through microbial fermentation. For example, using certain bacteria (such as Corynebacterium glutamicum), fermentation is carried out in a culture medium containing appropriate carbon sources (such as glucose), nitrogen sources (such as urea), and other nutrients. Microorganisms synthesize branched - chain amino acids during the fermentation process, and then the products are obtained through separation and purification processes.
   • Chemical Synthesis Method: Using the method of organic chemical synthesis, branched - chain amino acids are synthesized through a series of chemical reactions. However, this method is more complicated and may produce more by - products, requiring fine - tuned separation and purification operations.
6. Application Areas
   • Sports Nutrition Field: Widely used as sports nutrition supplements. Athletes and fitness enthusiasts take them before and after high - intensity exercises such as strength training and endurance training to help improve sports performance, reduce muscle fatigue, and promote muscle recovery. They are usually added to sports drinks and other products in powder, capsule, or liquid form.
   • Medical Field: Used for the treatment and rehabilitation of certain diseases. For example, for some patients with liver diseases or those who need nutritional supplementation after surgery, branched - chain amino acids can improve the patients' nutritional status and promote physical recovery. At the same time, they may also be used in the treatment of diseases caused by abnormal protein metabolism.
   • Food Industry Field: Can be used as food additives to enhance the nutritional value of food. They are added to health - food products such as protein powder and nutrition bars and can also be used for the preparation of food for special medical purposes to meet the nutritional needs of specific populations.
7. Safety and Precautions
   • Safety: Generally, they are safe when used in an appropriate amount. They are essential amino acids for the human body, and normal intake will not harm the human body.
   • Precautions: Excessive intake may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, such as nausea and vomiting. In addition, for people with certain diseases (such as renal insufficiency), they need to be used under the guidance of a doctor, because excessive branched - chain amino acids may increase the burden on the kidneys.
