L-Glutamic acid, monosodium salt

Description:

L-Glutamic acid, monosodium salt, commonly known as monosodium glutamate (MSG), is a sodium salt of the amino acid L-glutamic acid. It is a white crystalline powder that is highly soluble in water, imparting a savory umami flavor, which makes it a popular flavor enhancer in food products. The compound is characterized by its ability to enhance the taste of various dishes without adding significant calories. In terms of its chemical structure, it contains a carboxyl group and an amino group, making it an amino acid derivative. MSG is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by food safety authorities when consumed in typical dietary amounts. However, some individuals may experience sensitivity to MSG, leading to symptoms often referred to as "Chinese restaurant syndrome." In addition to its culinary uses, monosodium glutamate is also utilized in the food industry for its preservative qualities and is involved in various biochemical processes within the body, including neurotransmission. Overall, L-glutamic acid, monosodium salt is a versatile compound with significant applications in both food science and biochemistry.

Sodium L-glutamate

CAS: 142-47-2

Glutamate is the most abundant amino acid in the body and plays an important role in metabolism, brain function, and immune function. It is involved in many biochemical reactions and has been found to be associated with liver lesions, thermal expansion, and brain functions. Glutamate also has a role in diseases such as Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Parkinson's disease. Furthermore, glutamate is used as a neurotransmitter that regulates the central nervous system. The treatment of diseases can be done through glutamate replacement therapy or by inhibiting glutamate receptors. Glutamate levels in human serum have been shown to increase when blood sampling is taken from individuals with metabolic disorders. Results show high values for glutamate levels in human serum samples collected from patients with metabolic disorders.
