Glycine betaine, chemically known as trimethylglycine (CAS 107-43-7), is a naturally occurring, water-soluble zwitterionic compound widely applied in feed, aquaculture, agriculture and biochemical industries. With a molecular formula of C₅H₁₁NO₂ and a molecular weight of 117.15 g/mol, this high-stability organic compound features water solubility, low volatility and strong biological compatibility, making it a core functional additive in multiple industrial scenarios.
Our standardized glycine betaine product adopts advanced purification technology, with a guaranteed purity of 98.0% on a dry basis. Strict quality control indicators ensure stable product quality: the loss on drying is controlled below 0.5%, residue on ignition is ≤0.1%, and harmful impurities are strictly limited, with content ≤10 ppm and arsenic content ≤2 ppm. At 20°C, its water solubility reaches 160 g/100 mL, and the pH value of a 5% aqueous solution remains stable between 5.0 and 7.5, adapting to biological and industrial application environments.
As an efficient and safe methyl donor, glycine betaine can effectively replace 20%–30% of synthetic methionine in feed formulas. Practical application data shows that regular addition can increase the daily weight gain of livestock and poultry by 4%–7%, optimize body nutrient absorption, and significantly improve lean meat rate and breeding economic benefits. In aquaculture, it serves as a powerful osmotic pressure protectant, effectively alleviating heat stress, high-salinity stress and hypoxia stress of fish, shrimp and crabs, reducing mortality and improving survival rate of aquatic organisms.
In agricultural planting, glycine betaine can enhance the stress resistance of crops, improve plant tolerance to drought, high temperature and saline-alkali soil, and promote healthy growth of crops. All products are packaged in 25kg moisture-proof woven bags, with a shelf life of 24 months under cool, dry and well-ventilated storage conditions. With reliable quality and prominent functional effects, our glycine betaine has become a preferred additive for global breeding and agricultural production enterprises.
