Nouramicyte®L-Lysine Health Benefits:

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine is an essential amino acid and an alkaline amino acid. Its hydrochloride salt is a common commercial form used in food additives, animal feed, and pharmaceuticals. L-lysine is called the "first limiting amino acid" because it is found in very low amounts in cereals and is easily destroyed during processing, resulting in deficiencies.

In 1889, German chemists Franz Huber and Emil Fischer first isolated a basic amino acid containing two amino groups from casein, a milk protein.In 1902, Fischer determined the chemical structure of lysine through further research, proving it to be diaminohexanoic acid with an ε-amino group. Subsequently, as stereochemistry developed, scientists clarified that naturally occurring lysine is L-configured (levorotatory), so it was named "L-lysine."

Natural sources of L-lysine include animal proteins such as meat, fish, dairy products, and eggs, which are high in lysine. Beans, nuts, and grains also contain some amount of lysine, but grain proteins are lower in lysine, which is one of the reasons vegetarians need to be careful about matching their diets.

Particularities of Nouramicyte®L-Lysine:

Product Specifications:

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine is available in the following specification and contents:

○

○

☑ Nouramicyte®L-Lysine 98.5%-101.5% crystalline powder

Product quality standards:

● USP/FCCIV/AJI92/EP/BP/JP/Feed grade

Production technology description:

●Microbial fermentation is a common method for producing Nouramicyte®L-Lysine.Through metabolic engineering, modified microorganisms efficiently synthesize the lysine, which is then obtained by separation and purification. The process includes bacterial isolation, decolorization, desalination, ion exchange resin, concentration, crystallization, and drying to obtain a white, powdery product.

▶ Protein synthesis and muscle maintenance

▶ Immune health

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine Applications:

Adding Nouramicyte®L-Lysine to flour, bread, pasta, and breakfast cereals increases their protein nutritional value, raising it from "limiting amino acid deficient" to nearly that of animal protein. Add L-lysine to milk powder, soy milk, and sports drinks to meet the amino acid needs of children, athletes, and others. Nouramicyte®L-Lysine is available in tablet, capsule, or powder form as a dietary supplement to prevent lysine deficiency.

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine can be used in low-protein diets for patients with liver disease to replenish essential amino acids and maintain nitrogen balance. It can also be used as an ingredient in postoperative rehabilitation foods to promote wound healing. Adding Nouramicyte®L-Lysine to animal feed can increase lean muscle mass, lower feed-to-meat ratios, promote muscle growth, and reduce farrowing time. L-lysine supplementation enables animals to utilize feed protein more efficiently, reducing the environmental impact of nitrogen excretion.

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine is an essential amino acid and a key component in protein synthesis. It plays a role in constructing biological macromolecules, such as muscles, bones, skin, enzymes, and hormones.

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine promotes the differentiation and proliferation of T- and B-lymphocytes and enhances antibody synthesis. As a precursor of the antioxidant glutathione, it is involved in scavenging free radicals in the body and reducing damage to immune cells caused by oxidative stress. It inhibits the overexpression of pro-inflammatory factors, alleviating inflammatory reactions (e.g., symptoms during colds and infections).

▶ Improves nutrient absorption and metabolism

Nouramicyte®L-Lysine forms a soluble complex with calcium, which increases the efficiency of intestinal calcium absorption and assists in preventing osteoporosis. It promotes the absorption of trace elements, such as zinc and iron, and improves taste loss caused by iron or zinc deficiency.
