Glycine (abbreviated as Gly), also known as amino acid, has the chemical formula C2H5NO2. It is a white solid at normal temperature and pressure. It is the simplest amino acid in the amino acid series and is not essential for the human body. It has both acidic and basic functional groups in its molecule. It can ionize in water and has strong hydrophilicity, but it is a non-polar amino acid. It is soluble in polar solvents but insoluble in non-polar ones, and has a relatively high boiling point and melting point. By adjusting the acidity or alkalinity of the aqueous solution, glycine can present different molecular forms.

Product application:
Glycine, also known as glycine, is a non-essential amino acid that can be synthesized in the human body on its own. The following are the main functions and benefits of glycine:
1. Participating in protein synthesis: Glycine is one of the basic units that make up proteins and is crucial for maintaining the health of muscles and tissues.
2. Regulating neurotransmitters: Glycine helps regulate the levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, thereby influencing mood and sleep.
3. Antioxidant effect: Glycine can exert antioxidant effects, which help delay the aging process and protect body cells from oxidative damage.
4. Promoting good sleep: Glycine is involved in regulating neurotransmitters, increasing the concentration of glycine in the brain, which may promote good sleep, relieve anxiety, and may have a positive impact on memory and learning ability.
5. Protecting cardiovascular health: Glycine helps lower cholesterol levels in the blood, which may reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and protect the health of the cardiovascular system.
6. Enhance immune system function: Glycine can assist the human body in generating antibodies, enhance the function of the immune system, and improve the overall resistance of the body.
7. Application in the food industry: Glycine can be used in the production of condiments and has a certain inhibitory effect on the growth of certain microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli. Meanwhile, its antioxidant properties also help to extend the shelf life of food.
8. Treating specific diseases: Glycine can be used in clinical research for microbiological and biochemical purposes. When combined with aspirin, it can reduce irritation to the gastric mucosa. Glycine and polypeptide synthesis can be used as amino acids to protect the body.
