Introduction of food additive L-lysine base.
L-lysine base is an important food additive, which is mainly used to supplement the lysine content in foods to meet the body's demand for essential amino acids. Lysine is one of the essential amino acids in the human body, which plays an important role in growth and development, immune function and nervous system. However, many foods lose lysine during processing and storage, resulting in insufficient levels. Therefore, the addition of L-lysine base becomes an effective solution.
L-Lysine base has the following characteristics:
1.High safety: L-lysine base is an amino acid extracted from natural raw materials and has a high safety. Under normal use, it does not cause harm to the human body.
2.Good stability: L-lysine base has good stability during processing and storage, is not easily affected by temperature, humidity and other factors, and can maintain the quality and taste for a long time.
3.Soluble in water: L-lysine base is easily soluble in water, easy to mix with other food ingredients, and not easy to precipitate or separate.
4.Enhance nutritional value: The addition of L-lysine base can increase the amino acid content in food, improve the nutritional value of food, and meet the health needs of consumers.
In the food industry, L-lysine base is widely used in the following aspects:
1.Infant food: Infants and young children are in a critical period of growth and development, and have high nutritional needs. Adding L-lysine base to infant formula, rice flour and other foods can help meet the nutritional needs of infants and young children and promote their healthy growth.
2.Sports Nutrition Foods: Athletic people need to supplement with enough protein and amino acids during training to support muscle growth and recovery. L-Lysine base, as a building block of protein, helps to increase the effectiveness of sports nutrition foods.
3.Baked goods: Lysine is a gluten fortifier that can improve the elasticity and water-holding capacity of gluten, improving the taste and quality of baked goods. Adding an appropriate amount of L-lysine base to baked goods such as bread and biscuits can improve the quality and market competitiveness of products.
4.Other foods that need to be supplemented with lysine: In addition to the above application areas, L-lysine base can also be used in other foods that need to be supplemented with lysine, such as beverages, meat products, dairy products, etc.
When using L-lysine base, there are a few things to keep in mind:
1.Control the amount of addition: According to the food standards and formula requirements, reasonably control the amount of L-lysine base added to avoid the burden of excessive addition to the human body.
2.Storage conditions: L-lysine base should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humid environments. It should be inspected for clumping or discoloration before use to ensure its quality and safety.
3.Reasonable combination with other ingredients: When adding L-lysine base, it should be reasonably matched with other food ingredients to ensure the taste, quality and safety of food.
4.Watch out for allergic reactions: Although L-lysine base is an amino acid extracted from natural raw materials, there are still some people who may be allergic to it. The allergen of the product should be labeled before use to avoid accidental ingestion by people with allergies.
In conclusion, L-lysine base, as an important food additive, has a wide range of application value in supplementing the lysine content in food. In the process of use, relevant standards and requirements should be followed to ensure that it is safe, effective and compliant to be used in food, and provide consumers with healthy and delicious food choices.
