What is BS 4401-14-Determination of L-(+)-glutamic acid content in meat and meat products about?
BS 4401 is a British standard on methods of test for meat and meat products that discusses the determination of L-(+)-glutamic acid content in meat and meat products to ensure meat and meat products are safe for consumption.
BS 4401-14 is the fourteenth part of the BS 4401 series that specifies a reference method for the determination of the L-(+)-glutamic acid content of meat and meat products.
Who is BS 4401-14-Determination of L-(+)-glutamic acid content in meat and meat products s for?
BS 4401-14 on the determination of the L-(+)-glutamic acid content of meat and meat products is useful for:
- Meat and meat products manufacturers
- Food scientists
- Food technologists
- Food laboratories
- Food health and safety departments
Why should you use BS 4401-14-Determination of L-(+)-glutamic acid content in meat and meat products?
Glutamic acid is an amino acid that is used for protein production. It transforms into glutamate in the body. This is a chemical that lets other cells transmit and receive information from nerve cells in the brain. L-(+)-glutamic acid content of meat and meat products is the L-(+)-glutamic acid content determined according to the procedure described in BS 4401-14 and expressed as a percentage by mass.
High quantities of glutamine can cause some side effects including blood in urine, changes in skin colour, lower back pain, fast heartbeat, dizziness, or rash
BS 4401-14 provides you with guidance on apparatus, sample, the procedure for the preparation of the test sample, determination, duplicate determination, expression of results, method of calculation and formula, test report, etc.
The reference method and procedure provided by BS 4401-14 assist you in the determination of L-(+)-glutamic acid content in meat and meat products, improving the quality and subsistence of meat and meat products and ensuring a reduction in the risk to human health due to the high consumption of L-(+)-glutamic acid content.
With obedience and compliance to BS 4401-14, you can enhance meat and meat products’ effectiveness and efficacy and manufacture a standardized high-quality product.
