The worldwide amino acid market is $8 billion and is projected to reach $20.4 billion by the year 2020. The US market for amino acids represents about 20% of the global market, at nearly $1.6 billion ...

Amino acids have long been known to improve the stability and solubility of proteins. Amino acids might be added to insulin, for example, to maintain shelf-life and stop undesired chemical reactions ...

NEW ORLEANS — Building muscle, nine essential amino acids (EAA) at a time, is the driving force behind muscle protein synthesis (MPS) – overcoming the normal effects of muscle protein breakdown (MPB) ...

An Emory University study, published Friday by Science Advances, provides the first evidence that exposure to higher ...

Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) have beneficial nutrient signalling effects but paradoxically are associated with obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) BCAAs might be a ...

Science is built on reproducibility; if someone else can replicate your results, chances are pretty good that you’re looking at the truth. And there’s no statute of limitations on reproducibility; ...

Protein hydrolysates are produced by breaking down proteins into short protein fragments (peptides) and amino acids. They are ...

Astrobiologists are looking at amino acids and trying to figure out if these building blocks of life can be replicated on other planets. A team in Indiana is about to look at amino acids that have ...

Scientists have devised a way to create a green alternative to the light-emitting materials often used in TV, smartphones and ...
