Product introduction
5-Aminolevulinic acid phosphate is the phosphate form of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA).
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a naturally occurring amino acid widely found in nature and plays an important role in living organisms. Trace amounts of 5-ALA are found in common foods such as bananas, spinach, tomatoes, and mushrooms, while large amounts are found in fermented products such as wine. 5-ALA and iron are key components in the synthesis of heme in the human body, major components of heme and myoglobin, and essential components of cytochromes, thus playing a crucial role in mitochondrial energy production.

A naturally occurring amino acid, 5-ALA phosphate serves as a universal precursor to heme and chlorophyll. Specialized grades tailored to two different high-growth industries are offered by TIANJIN YINAO:
| Feature | Agriculture Grade (Plant Booster) | Supplement/Pharma Grade (Anti-Aging) |
|---|---|---|
| Purity (HPLC) | ≥≥ 95.0% – 98.0% | ≥≥ 99.0% (Ultra-Pure) |
| Core Function | Chlorophyll synthesis & Stress tolerance | Mitochondrial health & Metabolic energy |
| Key Benefits | Enhances photosynthesis, cold resistance, and fruit coloring (especially for grapes/apples). | Promotes ATP production, supports healthy aging, and NAD+ synergy. |
| Application | Foliar spray or fertilizer additive. | Oral capsules, powders, or PDT agents. |
| Compliance | Agri-Tech standard. | Food Grade / GMP Pharmaceutical standard. |
Laboratory Synthesis & R&D Capability
In order to guarantee the structural stability of the phosphate salt form, which is more stable than the hydrochloride (HCl) form for long-term storage and formulation, we at TIANJIN YINAO use cutting-edge chemical synthesis and purification methods.
- Precision Catalysis: We guarantee low organic contaminants and no leftover heavy metals thanks to our exclusive synthesis method.
- Formulation Stability: Our 5-ALA Phosphate is designed to be highly soluble and compatible with a variety of carriers, including pharmaceutical excipients and agricultural chelates.
- Verification: To ensure molecular identity and concentration, each batch is examined using H-NMR and HPLC.
