HS v2017 Code: 292249

About amino-acids, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, their esters; salts thereof, excluding lysine, glutamic acid, anthranalic acid and tilidine, their esters and salts thereof

HS code 292249 covers a diverse range of amino acids and their derivatives, excluding certain specific compounds. These amino acids are essential building blocks for proteins and play a crucial role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and personal care products. The global market for amino acids has been growing steadily, driven by increasing demand from these end-use sectors, as well as advancements in biotechnology and fermentation processes.

Production process

The production of amino acids covered under HS code 292249 typically involves fermentation or chemical synthesis processes. Fermentation utilizes microorganisms, such as bacteria or yeast, to convert carbohydrates or other feedstocks into the desired amino acids. Chemical synthesis, on the other hand, involves a series of chemical reactions to produce the target amino acids from various precursor compounds.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of amino acids under HS code 292249 include carbohydrate-based feedstocks (e.g., glucose, sucrose), various chemicals and reagents, as well as specialized fermentation equipment and bioreactors. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced biotechnology and process engineering expertise to optimize production yields and efficiency.

Production outputs

The amino acids produced under HS code 292249 are widely used as ingredients in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and personal care industries. These amino acids can be further processed or combined with other compounds to create a wide range of products, such as dietary supplements, food additives, and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Other industries that may consume the outputs of this industry include 290540 Amino-alcohols, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, their ethers and esters; salts thereof, 293359 (Heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen hetero-atom(s) only, containing an unfused pyridine ring (whether or not hydrogenated) in the structure), and 293499 (Heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen hetero-atom(s) only, not elsewhere specified or included).
