β-Alanine has good application prospects in the pharmaceutical field. Huaheng Biotechnology is a leading company in my country.

β-Alanine, also known as 3-aminopropionic acid, has a molecular formula of C3H7NO2 and is an organic compound. β-Alanine appears as colorless or white crystals with a slightly sweet aroma. It is easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in acetone and ether. β-Alanine has the characteristics of stable chemical properties and non-toxicity, and is widely used in food processing, medicine, feed, health products, chemical industry and other fields.

The preparation methods of β-alanine include biological methods and chemical synthesis methods. The biological method has the advantages of low production cost and high production efficiency, but the raw materials are highly acidic and can easily cause environmental pollution and harm human health. Industrial production has not yet been realized; the chemical synthesis method is the mainstream preparation method of β-alanine, which requires equipment The requirements are higher and the reaction conditions are harsh, but the yield of the finished product is higher. In recent years, biological methods have gradually become the research focus of global β-alanine research institutions and manufacturing enterprises, and are expected to replace chemical synthesis methods as the mainstream preparation method of β-alanine in the future.

According to the “2023-2028 China β-Alanine Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that β-alanine has a wide range of application fields, with the pharmaceutical field being its largest demand end. β-Alanine has the functions of buffering fatigue toxins, improving high-intensity exercise performance, and maintaining blood sugar levels. It can be used to produce drugs such as balsalazide, pamidronic acid, and guanidinopropionic acid. In recent years, the market share of pharmaceutical-grade β-alanine has continued to increase, attracting many pharmaceutical companies in my country to lay out production tracks. Against this background, the development speed of my country’s β-alanine industry has further accelerated.

There are many β-alanine production companies in my country, with leading companies occupying a dominant position in the market and a high degree of industry concentration. Anhui Huaheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Hubei Maxis Refining Technology Co., Ltd., Hubei Zhenbo Chemical Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Jiatu Technology Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Sanhuan Chemical Co., Ltd., etc. are the main manufacturers of β-alanine in my country. manufacturer.

Huaheng Biological is the leading beta-alanine company in my country and even the world, accounting for nearly 60% of the global market. Huaheng Biotech focuses on the research, development, production and sales of amino acids and their derivatives. DL-alanine, L-alanine and β-alanine are its main alanine series products. According to Huaheng Biological’s annual report, the company will achieve revenue of 1.42 billion yuan in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 48.7%. At present, Huaheng Biological’s β-alanine production scale ranks first in the world, and it is promoting the “annual production of 7,000 tons of β-alanine derivatives project.”

Industry analysts said that β-alanine has good application prospects in the pharmaceutical field. With the growth of downstream demand, its market space will continue to expand. my country is a major producer of β-alanine, and local companies have a competitive advantage and voice in the global market. It is expected that in the future, with the in-depth research and the continuous improvement of the level of technological innovation, the prosperity of my country’s β-alanine industry will further improve.
