Description
L-Arginine hydrochloride (CAS 15595-35-4) is the hydrochloride salt form of the amino acid L-Arginine, also known as arginine chlorhydrate or arginine muriate. It carries no assigned E-code and is commercially referenced under identifiers including EINECS 239-674-8.
In pharmaceutical formulations, it serves as a pH-adjusting agent, neutralising acidic active ingredients to improve solubility and stability in injectable and oral preparations. In food and nutritional supplement manufacturing, it functions as a buffering agent, maintaining target pH ranges during processing and extending shelf stability of protein-based products.
L-Arginine hydrochloride is available in pharmaceutical-grade (Ph.Eur., USP) and food-grade (FCC) specifications, supplied as a crystalline powder. It is a registered substance under REACH and is handled in compliance with EU food and pharmaceutical regulations. Standard packaging includes 25 kg bags or fibre drums.
