Micronized BCAA 2:1:1 – D90 < 20 µm

BCAA 2:1:1 is a blend of the branched-chain essential amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, typically made by fermentation. Micronization improves mixability of these hydrophobic amino acids in shakes and drinks. It is valued in sports nutrition for training and recovery.

Micronized (particle-engineered) grade with a tightly controlled particle size for improved dispersion, content uniformity and dissolution.

GUTINS Micronized BCAA 2:1:1 — D90 < 20 µm is offered for manufacturers, formulators and brands. Specification: D90 < 20 µm; form / technology: Micronized powder; diet suitability: Verify source.

Solubility & Formulation

Micronized for faster wetting and dispersion. Intrinsic solubility of the active: sparingly soluble in water (leucine least soluble); micronized/instantized grades disperse better; insoluble in oils

Storage & Handling

Store sealed in a cool, dry place; protect from humidity to prevent caking. Keep container tightly closed; use clean, dry utensils. Shelf life is typically 24 months in unopened original packaging (see CoA).

Regulatory Note

Amino acids are permitted in US dietary supplements and EU food supplements (some national limits apply); verify fermentation source and vegan status.
