L(+)-Monosodium glutamate monohydrate CAS#6106-04-3
High Solubility: Sodium glutamate monohydrate is highly soluble in water, making it ideal for various food and pharmaceutical applications.
Consistent Purity: Products typically maintain a purity range of 98.0%-102.0%, ensuring consistent quality and performance, with some reaching up to 99% purity.
Premium Quality: Renowned brands like Fujifilm and Heguang Pure Pharmaceutical produce high-quality sodium glutamate monohydrate, ensuring reliability and safety.
Versatile Solubility: While highly soluble in water, it also has limited solubility in organic solvents, which allows for controlled use in different formulations.
Sodium glutamate monohydrate typically appears as a white to nearly white crystal or crystalline powder. It is highly soluble in water, mildly soluble in organic solvents like ethanol, and insoluble in others such as ether. The purity is typically required to be between 98.0%-102.0% (using the titration method), as seen in high-quality products from companies like Fujifilm and Heguang Pure Pharmaceutical. Some products also achieve a purity of 99%.
