Whether in nutrition, cosmetics, or industrial manufacturing, Parchem is your best source for raw materials. This week Parchem highlights Beta Alanine, a non-essential amino acid frequently used in supplements for athletic training.
Beta Alanine [ CAS # 107-95-9 ] is the limiting amino acid in carnosine synthesis, combining with L-Histidine. With carnosine being an important compound in the regulation of intramuscular chemistry, multiple studies have shown Beta Alanine to decrease fatigue and increase the total muscular work able to be completed.
Beta Alanine can act as an intramuscular buffer, balancing pH levels and helping maintain homeostasis within the body. The muscles in the human body function the strongest while within the proper pH range, making pH regulation critical. Beta Alanine also acts as an antioxidant acting to help protect the body during times of oxidative stress.
