L-lysine hydrochloride

L-Lysine Hydrochloride (CAS 10098-89-2), also known as L-Lysine Monohydrochloride, is the stabilized salt form of the essential amino acid lysine. It offers improved solubility and shelf stability over the free base form. It functions as a nutritional supplement, feed additive, and pharmaceutical excipient across multiple industries. In animal nutrition, it is incorporated into compound feeds for swine, poultry, and aquaculture.

This additive helps to correct lysine deficiency in cereal-based diets and support lean muscle development. Food and beverage manufacturers use it to fortify protein-enriched products and meal replacements. It is particularly useful in functional foods where lysine is the limiting amino acid. Pharmaceutical formulators rely on it as an active ingredient in oral supplements and infusion solutions.

In food applications, it also contributes mild flavor-modifying and acidulant properties in certain formulations. The product is supplied as a white crystalline powder for easy handling. It is available in feed-grade, food-grade (FCC compliant), and pharmaceutical-grade (USP/BP) specifications. These grades ensure compliance with various global regulatory requirements.

Bulk supply is standard in 25 kg bags to suit diverse manufacturing needs. Larger quantities are also available in bulk bags for large-scale feed and industrial applications.
