2-Amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid Use and Manufacturing

1. Nutritional additives. Also for the preparation of amino acid infusion and comprehensive amino acid preparations.
2. Threonine is an important nutrient enhancer, being able to strengthen the grains, cakes and dairy products with similar effects of restoring human fatigue, promoting growth and development as tryptophan. In the field of medicine, due to that the structure of threonine contains hydroxyl, it has a water retention effect in human skin, can be combined with the oligosaccharide chain and play an important role in the protection of cell membranes. It can also promote phospholipid synthesis and fatty acid oxidation in vivo.
