| Applications: | A labeled non-essential amino acid. Present in every food that contains protein. Large amounts of free glutamic acid can be found in cheese and soy sauce. The compound is responsible for umami. The carboxylate anions and salts of glutamic acid are called glutamates and are very important excitatory neurotransmitters. |
