Properties and stability

Hygroscopic. Oxidizes and decomposes slowly in air. Aqueous solutions are acidic.

Storage method

Should be sealed and stored in a cool, dry place away from light.

Synthesis method

1. Dissolve cystine in dilute hydrochloric acid, filter and add tin particles to heat and reflux. Dilute the reducing solution with water, remove the remaining tin particles, saturate with hydrogen sulfide, filter, wash the filter residue with a small amount of water, combine the washing liquid and filtrate, concentrate under reduced pressure, cool and crystallize, and dry to obtain L-cysteine hydrochloride.

2. Hydrolyzed by α-keratin contained in hair Cystine can be obtained, and then reduced to cysteine through chemical reduction or electrolysis, and hydrochloric acid is added to form a salt.

Purpose

1. Used for biochemical research. Determination of calcium and magnesium in steel raw materials. Reducing agent for determination of hemolysin. Growth culture and enumeration of anaerobic bacteria.

2.Used in biochemistry Research. Determination of calcium and magnesium in steel raw materials. Reducing agent for determination of hemolysin. It is used to treat acrylonitrile and aromatic poisoning, prevent radiation damage, treat bronchitis and reduce phlegm. It is also used in cosmetics to prevent aging, and as a food additive to promote fermentation and maintain umami taste.

3.Used as analytical reagents, As a masking agent, it is used to measure calcium and magnesium. It can be used as a reducing agent for biochemical research, such as hemolysin determination. Also used for the cultivation of anaerobic bacteria.
