Amino acids

Alsiano supplies amino acids from Ajinomoto. Our range of amino acids can all be supplied as 100% non-animal origin.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Amino acids get together and form peptides or polypeptides. It is from these groupings that proteins are made.

A total of 20 different kinds of amino acids form proteins. Commonly recognised amino acids are glutamine, glycine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and valine. Phenylalanine, tryptophan, and valine are essential amino acids for humans. The others are isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, and threonine.
