L-Phenylalanine

L-Phenylalanine is a high-purity, essential amino acid used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and food applications as a protein-building nutrient and precursor to key neurotransmitters. As a hydrophobic, aromatic amino acid, it plays critical roles in metabolic, neurological, and endocrine function. L-Phenylalanine is

• A pharmaceutical- and food-grade essential amino acid
• A precursor to tyrosine, dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine
• Used in oral supplements, parenteral nutrition, and amino acid therapies
• Suitable for protein fortification, metabolic support, and neuroactive formulations
• Manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) conditions
• Supplied with complete regulatory documentation including Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and supporting technical data

L-Phenylalanine appears as a white, crystalline powder that is slightly soluble in water and stable under dry conditions. It is absorbed from the small intestine via active transport and incorporated into proteins or converted to tyrosine through hepatic hydroxylation.

In pharmaceutical and health-related applications, L-Phenylalanine is used in:

• Oral dietary supplements for cognitive, metabolic, and nutritional support
• Amino acid blends in parenteral nutrition (PN) and total parenteral nutrition (TPN)
• Medical foods for phenylketonuria (PKU) dietary management and diagnostics
• Mood and focus supplements targeting neurotransmitter synthesis
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing as a chiral building block or intermediate

L-Phenylalanine is essential for protein synthesis and neural signaling. Its downstream metabolites contribute to the biosynthesis of catecholamines and thyroid hormones, making it relevant in stress regulation and alertness.

CarboMer supplies L-Phenylalanine with validated control over enantiomeric purity, assay, moisture content, and heavy metal levels. Material conforms to major pharmacopeial standards (USP, FCC, EP) and is suitable for regulated pharmaceutical and nutritional formulations.

The material is packaged in sealed, tamper-evident, moisture-resistant containers. Available in laboratory, pilot, and full-scale commercial volumes. Minimum order quantities (MOQ), lead times, and documentation including CoA and SDS are provided upon request.

Each batch is tested for identity (IR, HPLC), assay (anhydrous basis), optical rotation, pH, loss on drying, and microbial content. Certificates of Analysis (CoA), Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and full traceability documentation accompany every shipment.

As with all CarboMer essential amino acids and therapeutic nutrients, L-Phenylalanine is supported by formulation guidance, regulatory compliance, and dependable global supply to help you develop effective, high-purity health products.
