High Purity L-Valine Raw Material from China Suppliers and Factory for Premium Nutritional and Pharmaceutical Products
Basic Information
Product Description
L-Valine, also known as L-2-Amino-3-methylbutanoic acid. L-Valine is one of three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), alongside leucine and isoleucine. BCAAs are directly utilized as an energy source in muscles, helping to reduce muscle breakdown during exercise, enhance endurance, and reduce fatigue. As an essential amino acid, L-Valine cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through dietary sources such as meat, dairy, eggs, and legumes. It plays a critical role in muscle metabolism, tissue repair, and energy production, particularly during fasting or intense physical activity.
Applications
💊
Nutritional Supplements
L-Valine is commonly used in dietary supplements to support muscle health, athletic performance, and recovery.
🏥
Clinical Nutrition
It provides necessary amino acids for patients with muscle-wasting conditions or liver diseases.
🔬
Pharmaceutical Industry
L-Valine and its derivatives are used in the design and synthesis of new drug molecules, particularly in the development of antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer agents.
🍽️
Food Industry
It is added to various food products to enhance their nutritional value.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q
What is L-Valine and why is it considered an essential amino acid?
L-Valine is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), along with leucine and isoleucine. It is classified as an essential amino acid because the human body cannot synthesize it on its own. It must be obtained through dietary sources such as meat, dairy products, eggs, and legumes, or through supplementation.
Q
What are the main benefits of L-Valine for athletes and active individuals?
L-Valine plays a key role in energy production within muscle tissue. It helps reduce muscle breakdown during exercise, supports endurance, and minimizes exercise-related fatigue. It is widely used in sports nutrition and BCAA supplement formulations to aid performance and recovery.
Q
In which industries is L-Valine commonly used?
L-Valine has broad applications across multiple industries. It is used in nutritional supplements, clinical nutrition for patients with muscle-wasting or liver conditions, the pharmaceutical industry for drug synthesis (including antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer agents), and the food industry to enhance the nutritional profile of various products.
Q
What is the standard purity and quality specification of your L-Valine product?
Our L-Valine meets a high-purity standard with an assay of 98.5%–101.5%. It appears as white crystals or crystalline powder, with a pH range of 5.5–7.0 and a specific rotation of +26.6° to +28.8°. Heavy metal content is strictly controlled, and microbiological tests confirm it is free from E. Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus, and Salmonella.
Q
Is L-Valine safe for use in food and pharmaceutical products?
Yes. Our L-Valine is manufactured to meet strict safety standards. Microbiological testing confirms negative results for harmful pathogens including E. Coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus Aureus. Heavy metal levels such as Lead, Arsenic, Cadmium, and Mercury are all well within internationally accepted safety limits.
Q
What packaging and storage conditions are recommended for L-Valine?
L-Valine should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, away from direct sunlight and moisture. It is recommended to keep it in its original sealed packaging to maintain product integrity. Please contact us directly for specific packaging options and bulk order inquiries.
