L-Glutamic Acid Usage
1. Food Industry
L-Glutamic acid can be used as a flavor enhancer, enhancing beverage and food taste. It not only can enhance the flavor of food, but also has animal food preservative effect.
2. Cosmetics industry
L-Glutamic acid as a nutritional drugs can be used for skin care and hair care. For hair agent, it can be absorbed by hair scalp to prevent hair loss; When applied to the skin, it has effective treatment on wrinkles .
L-Glutamic acid is a natural plant ingredient, from the world's most advanced biological enzyme engineering technology, to develop daily used cosmetics such as hair care and skin care cosmetics. So surface active agent to synthesize L-Glutamic acid has great market.
