Frequently Asked Questions
What is beta-alanine used for industrially?
Beta-alanine (CAS 107-95-9) is a naturally occurring beta-amino acid. Established uses include service as a building block for pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and its derivatives, a nutritional-supplement ingredient, a flavoring agent, and a buffering agent in electroplating.
Is beta-alanine an amino acid?
Yes. Beta-alanine is a beta-amino acid (molecular formula C3H7NO2), differing from alpha-alanine in that the amino group is attached to the beta carbon. It is the only naturally occurring beta-amino acid in mammals and a precursor to pantothenic acid.
Is beta-alanine soluble in water?
Beta-alanine is highly soluble in water (over 50 g/100 mL at room temperature), which supports its use in aqueous supplement and electroplating-buffer formulations. Confirm exact solubility and assay on the lot CoA.
What CAS number and HS code apply to beta-alanine?
CAS 107-95-9, molecular formula C3H7NO2, HS classification 292249. Request a lot-specific CoA and SDS to confirm assay, identity, and GHS handling data for your records.
What bulk packaging is available for beta-alanine and how is it priced?
It is supplied in bulk for industrial and nutritional use; packaging (bags/drums) and pricing track volume and grade, so we quote per order. Submit a bulk RFQ with your target volume and grade requirement for a quote plus CoA and SDS.
