Case 1: Baking Industry: A small - scale bakery was facing problems with dough elasticity and the final texture of their bread products. After adding l-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate at a dosage of 0.02% of the flour weight, they noticed a significant improvement. The dough became more extensible, which made it easier to shape. The baked bread had a softer and more uniform crumb structure, and the volume increased. Customer feedback also indicated that the bread had a better taste and longer shelf - life.
Case 2: Pharmaceutical Product: A pharmaceutical company was developing an antioxidant supplement. They incorporated l-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate into the formulation. Clinical trials showed that the supplement effectively reduced oxidative stress markers in the test subjects. It also had a positive impact on overall health and well - being, such as improved skin condition and enhanced immune function.
Case 3: Cosmetic Product: A cosmetic brand launched a new anti - aging serum containing 0.5% l-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate.
