- RXSOL
Overview
Applications
Glutamic acid often is used as a food additive and flavor enhancer in the form of its sodium salt, known as monosodium glutamate (MSG).
Dosage and directions
Characteristics and notes
The relatively high glutamate levels in some traditional diets suggest that it is a safe food additive. However, anecdotal and scientific evidence indicates that high levels of glutamate and MSG consumption cause adverse health effects.
Safety and SDS
Read the safety data sheet before handling. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection.
