Product Description：

Properties and Usage:

α-ketoglutarate is an important metabolic intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) and is used in medicine, health care, food, feed and chemical industries.

1. Medicine and health

In the auxiliary treatment of liver disease, α-ketoglutarate effectively reduces ammonia toxicity and protects liver function by combining ammonia in the body to produce glutamate. In addition, it supports amino acid synthesis and protein metabolism and can be used for the treatment of metabolic diseases and nutritional supplements.

2. Food and feed additives

In the field of feed, α-ketoglutarate provides support for livestock and aquaculture by improving animal growth performance and enhancing immunity, while alleviating metabolic stress caused by high temperature or environmental pressure and improving production efficiency.

3. Industrial chemistry

As an important raw material for the fermentation industry, α-ketoglutarate is a core intermediate in the synthesis of amino acids such as glutamate and proline. At the same time, it is also a precursor of antibiotics and other pharmaceutical products, providing key support for the development of biodegradable materials.
