Specifications

Product typeDry instantised blend of fermentation-derived amino acids with mineral citrates — a mixture, not a separate chemically defined compound, so no single CAS applies
Amino acid fraction (w/w)L-Glutamine 60.0 %; L-leucine 10.0 %, L-isoleucine 5.0 %, L-valine 5.0 % — BCAA at 2:1:1; amino acids 80.0 % of the blend in total
Electrolyte & carrier fraction (w/w)Trisodium citrate dihydrate 7.0 %, tripotassium citrate monohydrate 6.0 %, magnesium citrate 5.0 %, sunflower lecithin instantising aid 2.0 %
Component CAS numbersL-Glutamine 56-85-9 · L-Leucine 61-90-5 · L-Isoleucine 73-32-5 · L-Valine 72-18-4 · Trisodium citrate dihydrate 6132-04-3
Component molecular formulaeL-Glutamine C5H10N2O3 (146.14); L-leucine and L-isoleucine C6H13NO2 (131.17); L-valine C5H11NO2 (117.15)
Component assayEach amino acid 98.5 % minimum on the dried basis to USP and Ph. Eur. monograph limits; citrate salts to USP and FCC
Declared minerals per 100 gSodium approx. 1640 mg, potassium approx. 2170 mg, magnesium approx. 810 mg, calculated from the salts used and verified per lot
Typical 10 g serve6.0 g L-glutamine, 2.0 g BCAA 2:1:1, sodium 164 mg, potassium 217 mg, magnesium 81 mg
Appearance & dispersionWhite to off-white agglomerated free-flowing powder; lecithin-instantised for cold-water dispersion without lumping
Particle sizeAgglomerated, approx. 95 % through 30 mesh (600 µm) and largely retained on 100 mesh (150 µm); non-instantised fine grade to order
Origin & allergen statusAmino acids fermentation-derived from plant carbohydrate; no hair, feather or other animal hydrolysate. Vegan. Free from milk, egg, soy, fish, crustacean, gluten and nuts
Lecithin optionSunflower lecithin is the standard instantising aid so the blend carries no soy declaration; soy lecithin only on request, with the allergen declared
Loss on drying & heavy metalsLoss on drying and Pb, As, Cd and Hg reported per lot against USP <232> and Ph. Eur. 2.4.8 criteria
Shelf life & storage24 months from manufacture, unopened, below 25 °C at low humidity — glutamine and the citrate salts are moisture-sensitive
HS code2106.90.99 (India ITC-HS 21069099) — see the classification note; the spreadsheet value 21061000 is incorrect
Glutamine Recovery Powder is Thovek's instantised post-training base, built around fermentation-derived L-glutamine (CAS 56-85-9) at 60 % of the blend and completed with branched-chain amino acids at the conventional 2:1:1 ratio — L-leucine 10 %, L-isoleucine 5 %, L-valine 5 % — plus sodium, potassium and magnesium supplied as citrates and a small lecithin instantising fraction. It is a different article from Thovek's single-ingredient L-glutamine: that one is a separate chemically defined compound sold on a monograph assay, whereas this is a finished blend sold on its declared composition, and the two classify under different tariff headings. Every amino acid in the blend is produced by microbial fermentation on a plant carbohydrate feedstock, with no hair, feather or other animal hydrolysate anywhere in the chain, so the powder is genuinely vegan and free from milk, egg, soy, fish, crustacean, gluten and tree nuts. Sunflower lecithin is used as the instantising aid precisely so that the blend carries no soy declaration; soy lecithin is available on request, but the allergen then has to be declared on the finished pack and the buyer's label copy changes accordingly. As standard the powder is agglomerated to roughly 95 % through 30 mesh and disperses in cold water without lumping, which is what stick-pack and shaker formats require. At a 10 g serve the standard grade delivers 6.0 g L-glutamine, 2.0 g of 2:1:1 BCAA, 164 mg sodium, 217 mg potassium and 81 mg magnesium, all calculated from the salts used and confirmed against each lot certificate. Ratios are open: the glutamine share can be lifted, the BCAA fraction re-cut, or the electrolyte load rebalanced to a buyer's own specification, and flavour, acidulant and sweetener systems can be incorporated at the blend stage or left to the buyer's own filling line. Thovek supplies specification, certificate of analysis, allergen and GMO statements, vegan and non-animal origin declarations, MSDS, and kosher or halal certification where the destination market asks for it. Nutrition and health claims on the finished pack remain the brand owner's responsibility under its own market's rules.
