L-Tyrosine Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a L-Tyrosine manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for L-Tyrosine production, including the cost of L-Tyrosine production, L-Tyrosine plant cost, L-Tyrosine production costs, and the overall L-Tyrosine manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a L-Tyrosine production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

L-Tyrosine is a non-essential alpha-amino acid that is produced from phenylalanine. It serves as an essential component in the production of various important brain chemicals, i.e., neurotransmitters. It is widely used in the production of dietary supplements and other pharmaceutical drugs. It is commonly used in protein supplements for a disorder named phenylketonuria (PKU). It is also used as a flavor enhancer to impart flavor and enhance protein content in various food products. Additionally, L-tyrosine inhibitors are often employed in the manufacture of several cosmetic products to reduce hyperpigmentation and contribute to lightening the complexion.

The market for L-Tyrosine is majorly driven by its applications in the medical, pharmaceutical, and healthcare industries, as it is used as an ingredient in dietary supplements and certain pharmaceuticals, which boosts its market growth. Its usage as a flavor enhancer further propels its demand in the food industry. Additionally, its employment in the production of various skincare products significantly amplifies its demand in the cosmetic industry. Furthermore, several factors influence industrial L-Tyrosine procurement, including the availability and cost of production of L-Tyrosine's raw materials, L-Tyrosine market prices, sustainable practices, quality standards, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, regulatory compliance, environmental regulations, safety standards, etc.

Raw Material for L-Tyrosine Production

According to the L-Tyrosine manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for L-Tyrosine production include Phenol- Citrobacter freundii.

Manufacturing Process of L-Tyrosine

The extensive L-Tyrosine production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

1. Production by Citrobacter freundii: This method of production uses Citrobacter freundii for the biotransformation of phenol to L-L-tyrosine. The bacteria is maintained on L-L-tyrosine agar media that contains meat extract, yeast extract, peptone, and agar to form broth. After 16h, the broth is centrifuged, and the cell pellet is washed with borate buffer. Further, the resting cells are used as catalysts for biotransformation reactions, followed by the synthesis of L-L-tyrosine by an enzyme L-tyrosine phenol lyase.

L-tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid and is synthesized from phenylalanine in animals. It also serves as the precursor of epinephrine, thyroid hormones, and melanin. The molecular formula of the compound is C9H11NO3, and its molecular weight is 181.19 g/mol. Its melting point is 343°C. It exists in the form of solid, white, fine crystals and fragments. It is an alpha-amino acid bearing a hydroxy substituent at position four on the phenyl ring. It comprises a 4-hydroxybenzyl group. It often helps produce melanin, the pigment that gives color to skin and hair. L-tyrosine is hydrophilic, polar, and neutral.
