Description and Uses

Betaine monohydrate is a minor pathway of methionine biosynthesis as an end product of oxidative choline metabolism. Betaine inner salt monohydrate is a variant of betaine. This chemical is known for its ability to function as an osmolyte, meaning it helps maintain cell volume and fluid balance within cells by controlling water flow in and out. This property is in various biological processes, especially in plants and microorganisms, to withstand stress from environmental changes, such as salinity or dehydration. In industrial applications, betaine inner salt monohydrate is utilized for its compatibility with a wide range of formulations, contributing to the stability and functionality of products. The mixture of betaine monohydrate and glycerol can form a Deep eutectic solvent (DES) at a molar ratio 1:2. Betaine monohydrate-glycerol DES can extract palmitic acid in palm oil.

Betaine monohydrate has been used:

• in the preparation of KLA buffer to perform polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
• to study the its effects on K_m and V_max of human aldose reductase
• to study its effects on the growth of A549 lung cancer both in vitro and in vivo
