HS v2017 Code: 292243

About amino-acids, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, and their esters; anthranilic acid and its esters; salts thereof

HS code 292243 covers a diverse range of organic compounds known as amino-acids, which are essential building blocks for proteins and other biomolecules. These compounds play a crucial role in various industries, from pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals to food and agriculture. The global amino-acid market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by increasing demand for nutritional supplements, animal feed, and specialized medical applications.

Production process

Amino-acids are typically produced through chemical synthesis or microbial fermentation. In the chemical synthesis approach, the amino-acids are derived from the reaction of ammonia with various carboxylic acids. Microbial fermentation, on the other hand, involves the use of genetically engineered microorganisms to convert carbohydrates or other feedstocks into the desired amino-acids. The specific production techniques may vary depending on the target amino-acid and the desired purity and quality requirements.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of amino-acids under HS code 292243 include various organic precursors, such as carboxylic acids, ammonia, and other chemical reagents. Additionally, specialized equipment like bioreactors, fermentation tanks, and purification systems are necessary for the production process. In the case of microbial fermentation, the input also includes the cultivation of microorganisms and the necessary growth media and nutrients.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 292243 are the various amino-acids, such as 292241 Lysine, 292242 Glutamic acid, and 292249 Other amino-acids. These amino-acids are then used as building blocks in the production of pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements, animal feed, and other specialized applications. The outputs from this industry may also be consumed by industries covered under related HS codes, such as 293624 Lecithins and other phosphoaminolipids and 293629 Other organic compounds.
