L-Lysine is a vital essential amino acid that cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through diet or supplementation. It plays a central role in protein biosynthesis, calcium absorption, collagen formation, and immune system function. As a key amino acid for both human and animal nutrition, L-Lysine is widely applied in nutraceuticals, clinical nutrition, sports supplements, and feed formulations.
L-Lysine (C₆H₁₄N₂O₂) is a basic amino acid with a positively charged ε-amino group, enabling it to participate in various metabolic and structural functions, including tissue repair, enzyme formation, and viral resistance modulation.
Chibio Biotech provides high-purity L-Lysine with 99.2% assay, manufactured in ISO-certified facilities using fermentation-based biosynthesis. The product is supplied as a white to pale yellow powder, highly soluble, and free from other amino acid residues, ensuring it meets in-house pharmaceutical and food-grade specifications.
