[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a method for separating and purifying leucine. Background technique
[0002] L-leucine, also known as leucine, is one of the essential amino acids for humans and animals. In 1819, Proust first isolated L-leucine from cheese, and later Bracon-not obtained its crystallization from the acid hydrolyzate of muscle and wool, and named it leucine. There are only 20 kinds of amino acids that constitute human protein, of which 8 are essential amino acids. From a nutritional point of view, evaluating the nutritional value of a protein mainly depends on the content and types of these 8 essential amino acids. L-leucine accounts for the highest share of complete proteins in nutrition, and is widely used in many industries such as medicine, food, flavoring, animal feed and cosmetics.
[0003] In the field of medicine, L-leucine is an important raw material for clinical compound crystalline amino a...
