Liposomal L-Theanine – Liposomal Powder (spray-dried)
L-Theanine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid naturally found in tea leaves, now produced by enzymatic or fermentation routes as well as tea extraction. It is valued for promoting relaxation without drowsiness and pairs well with caffeine for smooth focus; liposomal, microencapsulated and application grades broaden formulation options.
Spray-dried liposomal powder: the active is encapsulated in phospholipid vesicles to support stability, taste-masking and absorption.
GUTINS Liposomal L-Theanine — Liposomal powder (spray-dried) is offered for manufacturers, formulators and brands. Specification: Assay per active; phospholipid carrier declared; form / technology: Liposomal powder (spray-dried); diet suitability: Verify phospholipid source.

Solubility & Formulation
Disperses in water to re-form a liposomal suspension; do not dissolve in alcohol or strong surfactants, which disrupt the liposomes.
Storage & Handling
Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place; liposomal grades refrigerated (2-8 °C) and protected from light.. Keep container tightly closed; use clean, dry utensils. Shelf life is typically 24 months in unopened original packaging (see CoA).
Regulatory Note
L-Theanine is GRAS in the US for use in foods; in the EU, synthetic/fermentation L-theanine status for food supplements should be verified (tea extracts are traditional). Verify in the destination market.
