Properties and stability

1. Irritating. Its aqueous solution or slightly alkaline aqueous solution can be oxidized into cystine by air, and the acidic solution is relatively stable. The biochemical reagent content is not less than 98.5%

2. Exists in tobacco leaves.

Storage method

Should be sealed and stored in a dry place away from light.

Synthesis method

1. Tin particle reduction method Dissolve cystine in dilute hydrochloric acid, filter, add tin particles to the filtrate, heat and reflux for 2 hours. Dilute the reducing solution with water, remove the remaining tin particles, add hydrogen sulfide to saturate it, filter it, wash the filter residue with a small amount of water, combine the washing and filtrate, concentrate under reduced pressure, cool and crystallize, filter and dry to obtain L-cysteine salt Acid.

2. Electrolytic reduction method Add distilled water, hydrochloric acid, and cystine to the electrolytic tank, stir and dissolve, and maintain the electrolysis below 50°C until the end point. The resulting electrolyte was passed through hydrogen sulfide for several hours and then filtered. The filtrate is decolorized by adding activated carbon, filtered, concentrated under reduced pressure, crystallized by cooling, filtered, and dried to obtain L-cysteine hydrochloride.

3. Synthesis: It can be made by hydrolyzing protein (such as human hair) with hydrochloric acid, then treating it with copper oxide, and decomposing it with hydrogen sulfide. It can also be derived from the degradation of cystine.

Purpose

1. Mainly used in medicine, cosmetics, biochemical research, etc. Used in bread ingredients to promote gluten formation, fermentation, mold release, and prevent aging. Used in natural juices to prevent vitamin C from oxidizing and preventing juices from turning brown. This product has detoxification effect and can be used for acrylonitrile poisoning and aromatic acid poisoning. This product also has the function of preventing radiation damage to the human body, and is also a drug for treating bronchitis, especially as a phlegm-reducing drug (mostly used in the form of acetyl L-cysteine methyl ester). In cosmetics, it is mainly used in beauty water, Perm liquid, sun protection cream, etc.
