Glutamate is commonly found in nature. A variety of foods and human body contain glutamate, which is one of the structural amino acids of proteins or peptides, and free amino acids, L-glutamic acid is more delicious. Glutamic acid was discovered by Risothson in 1856. It is colorless crystal, with fresh Chemicalbook flavor, slightly soluble in water, but soluble in hydrochloric acid solution, isoelectric point 3.22. It's found in large quantities in cereal proteins and in the brains of animals. Glutamate plays an important role in protein metabolism and is involved in many important chemical reactions in animals, plants and microorganisms.

1. It can be used for the pharmaceutical, food additives, and nutritional supplements.
2. It can be used for biochemical research. In medicine, it can be used for treating hepatic coma, seizures prevention, and reducing ketonuria and ketosis.
3. It can be used as salt substitute, nutritional supplements, and flavor enhancer (mainly for meat, poultry, soups and so on). It can also be used as the prevention agent for the production of magnesium ammonium phosphate in shrimp, crabs and other aquatic can with the usage amount of 0.3% to 1.6%. According to the provisions of GB 2760-96, it can be used as a spice.
4. L-glutamate is mainly used for the production of monosodium glutamate, spices, and as a salt substitute, nutritional supplements and biochemical reagents. L-glutamate itself can be used as drugs and is involved in protein and carbohydrate metabolism in the brain, promoting the oxidation process. This product can combine with ammonia in the body into non-toxic glutamine, causing decreasing ammonia and
