Molecular Structure : 

 

Property:

MSG is normally obtained by the fermentation of carbohydrates and by using bacterial or yeast species from genera such as Brevibacterium, Arthrobacter, Microbacterium, and Corynebacterium. Yields of 100 g/litre can be prepared in this way. From 1909 to the mid 1960s, MSG was prepared by the hydrolysis of wheat gluten, which is roughly 25% Glutamic Acid. Glutamic Acid is one of the least soluble amino acids, which facilitates its purification.

Like the sodium salts of other amino acids, MSG is a stable colourless solid that is degraded by strong oxidizing agents. It exists as a pair of mirror image stereoisomers (enantiomers), but only the naturally occurring L-Glutamate form is used as a flavour enhancer.
