What is L-Serine ?
Serine, also known as beta hydroxyalanine, is an non-essential Amino Acid. It is found in eggs, fish, soy, and can be synthesized by the body from glycine.It plays a role in fat and fatty acid metabolism, as well as muscle growth.Serine is also needed to maintain a healthy immune system, as it helps in the production of immune cells and antibodies.Serine plays a role in cell membrane manufacturing, muscle tissue and the synthesis of the sheath that surrounds nerve cells.
Function
1. Precursors of synthesis of purine, thymine and choline;
2. L-serine hydroxyl can generate phosphoserine with important physiological functions after phosphorylation, and it is one of the main components of phospholipid.
3. It has the function of stabilizing the pH value of eye drops and has no stimulation after eye drops;
4. One of the important natural Moisturizing factors (NMF), the primary role of the cuticle in moisture retention, and a key additive in advanced cosmetics.
Application
1. Medical raw materials: serine is widely used in the configuration of third-generation compound amino acid infusion and nutritional supplement, and in the synthesis of various silk amino acid derivatives, such as cardiovascular, anti-cancer, AIDS new drugs and protective Amino Acids used in genetic engineering;
2. Food: serine is used in sports drinks, amino acid diet drinks, etc.
3. Feed: serine is used in animal feed to promote animal growth and development.
