L-Glutamic acid monopotassium salt monohydrate

Description:
L-Glutamic acid monopotassium salt monohydrate, with the CAS number 6382-01-0, is a potassium salt of the amino acid L-glutamic acid. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline powder and is highly soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, particularly in the food and pharmaceutical industries. It serves as a flavor enhancer, often utilized in savory foods due to its umami taste. The monohydrate form indicates that each molecule of the salt is associated with one molecule of water, which can influence its stability and solubility. L-Glutamic acid itself is a non-essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism and neurotransmission. The potassium salt form can also contribute to dietary potassium intake, which is important for maintaining proper physiological functions, including nerve transmission and muscle contraction. Overall, L-Glutamic acid monopotassium salt monohydrate is valued for its functional properties and its role in enhancing flavor profiles in various products.
