Properties and stability

1. Found in tobacco leaves.

Storage method

This product should be sealed and stored away from light.

Synthesis method

1. Indole is condensed to form pyridamine (3-dimethylaminomethylindole), which is further condensed to form α-carboxylic acid ethyl ester-β(3-indole)-N-acetyl-α- Alanine ethyl ester undergoes hydrolysis, decarboxylation, and rehydrolysis to generate DL-tryptophan.

2.Using indole as raw material, tryptophan is produced under enzyme catalysis in a high-concentration pyruvate and ammonia atmosphere. Or from indole and acetamidomalonate ethylene glycol.

Purpose

1. Nutritional and biochemical research. Prepare tissue culture medium. Nutritional supplements and antioxidants can be added to foods with low tryptophan content such as gelatin and corn. Combined with lysine, methionine and threonine in beef, rice, corn, etc., the best results can be obtained. L-tryptophan is obtained by optical refraction of DL-tryptophan, which is an important component of amino acid infusions and comprehensive amino acid preparations, and can treat niacin deficiency. As a feed additive, it participates in the renewal of plasma proteins in animals, promotes the function of riboflavin, contributes to the synthesis of nicotinic acid and heme, can significantly increase antibodies in the fetuses of pregnant animals, and has a stimulating effect on dairy cows and sows during lactation. The role of milk. When livestock and poultry lack tryptophan, their growth stagnates, their weight decreases, their fat accumulation decreases, and their testicles atrophy. 2.Used as a feed nutritional fortifier, it can significantly increase the body antibodies of animal fetuses and promote the milk production of dairy cows and sows during the lactation period. When animals lack tryptophan, their growth stagnates, their weight decreases, and their fat accumulation decreases. It is mainly used in artificial milk for piglets, and a small amount is used in sows and laying hens. The general dosage is 0.02% to 0.05%.
