Betaine powder Usage and Synthesis.

Betaine is a quaternary ammonium alkaloid. Anhydrous betaine is a new type of fine chemical that can be widely used in food, medicine, daily chemicals, printing and dyeing, chemical industry and other fields. Anhydrous betaine is an efficient and high-quality nutritional additive.

Pharmaceutical grade betaine can be used in medicine, cosmetics, food, juice industry, and dental materials. In addition, betaine can also be used in the fermentation industry. Anhydrous betaine has the effects of improving eyesight, resisting fatty liver, protecting kidneys, treating cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, etc.and is used in health foods.

Uses of Betaine.

Feed-grade anhydrous betaine can be used as a feed additive. It is a natural and efficient methyl donor. It can partially replace methionine and choline chloride, reduce feed costs, reduce pig back fat, and improve lean meat rate and carcass quality.

Adding betaine to feed can protect the vitamins in feed. The feed can withstand high temperatures and has a long storage period. It can greatly improve the utilization rate of feed and reduce costs.

Adding 0.05% betaine to chicken feed can replace 0.1% methionine; adding betaine to bait has an attractant effect on fish and shrimp, and can be used in large quantities as a fattening agent for aquatic products; adding betaine to pig feed makes pigs love to eat, and the lean meat rate is improved.

1kg of betaine is equivalent to 3.5kg of methionine. The ability of betaine to provide methyl groups is 1.2 times that of choline chloride and 3.8 times that of methionine, and the feeding effect is very significant.

Application of Bulk Betaine powder.

Betaine is widely present in animals and plants, with the highest content in beets. Betaine is a highly efficient and active methyl donor in animals, playing an important nutritional regulatory role in methyl metabolism. It can replace part of methionine and choline, promote fat metabolism, improve the palatability of feed, alleviate heat stress, regulate the body's osmotic pressure, maintain the stability of vitamin premixes, and improve breeding efficiency.

Product Methods of Betaine.

(1) Extraction method. The mother liquor of beet sugar production contains 12%-15% betaine, which can be directly recovered. Heat 300 parts of the mother liquor to 50°C, add 80 parts of calcium chloride, stir for a certain period of time and filter while hot.

The filtrate is acidified with hydrochloric acid and cooled to 20-30°C for crystallization. After separation and drying, about 30 parts of betaine are obtained.

(2) Synthesis method. It is obtained by quaternization of chloroacetic acid and trimethylamine. 195 parts of 48.6% chloroacetic acid aqueous solution are neutralized with 16% sodium hydroxide solution to form sodium chloroacetate solution, and then mixed with 360 parts of 16.4% trimethylamine solution, ventilated at 50°C for 1 hour, and ventilated at 80°C for another 1 hour.

After dilution, the reactant is adsorbed by ion resin (Dowex-50-8) and eluted with ammonia water to obtain betaine solution. Then it is vacuum concentrated and crystallized to obtain the finished product.
