L-Theanine Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Theanine
L-Theanine supplier for food, beverage, nutraceutical and research formulators in Malaysia. Also called theanine, the bulk ingredient is a white to off-white crystalline powder that should be purchased against its L stereochemical identity and grade-specific quality controls.
Food and beverage grades support functional beverages, nutrition powders and manufactured foods, while nutraceutical grades are used in bulk supplement and specialist ingredient formulation. Laboratory grades serve analytical method, reference and formulation work requiring a defined L-theanine material.
D-theanine and racemic DL-theanine have different stereochemical identities. Tea extracts, carrier premixes, finished blends, tablets and capsules also have separate compositions and are not aliases or grades of pure L-theanine.
For an L Theanine supplier Malaysia quotation, send the required grade, stereochemical and assay criteria, source basis, quantity and delivery location. Availability, packing, documentation, delivery timing and price are confirmed with the quotation.

L-Theanine grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Food and beverage-grade L-theanine | fine crystalline powder | — | Beverage, nutrition-powder and functional-food formulation where the buyer specifies L-theanine identity, purity, source basis and particle properties. | The required food-ingredient pack format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Nutraceutical formulation-grade L-theanine | white to off-white crystalline powder | — | Bulk supplement and nutraceutical manufacturing where stereochemical identity, assay, impurity and formulation requirements are stated for the incoming L-theanine ingredient. | The required formulation-grade pack format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Laboratory and research-grade L-theanine | controlled crystalline powder | — | Analytical method development, reference preparation and formulation or materials studies requiring identified L-theanine rather than a tea extract or an unspecified stereoisomer mixture. | The required laboratory pack format is confirmed with the quotation. |

L-Theanine applications
Common questions about L-Theanine
What is L-theanine?
L-theanine is the L stereoisomer of an amino acid derivative used as a bulk ingredient in selected food, beverage, nutraceutical and research formulations. It is specified by stereochemical identity, assay, impurity profile and application grade.
Are the terms theanine and L-theanine interchangeable?
Theanine is commonly used as the short name for L-theanine in ingredient trade, but the purchase specification should still state the L stereoisomer. An unspecified name should not override the required identity criteria.
Is L-theanine the same as D-theanine or DL-theanine?
No. D-theanine is the opposite stereoisomer and DL-theanine is a racemic mixture. Buyers should specify L-theanine and the required stereochemical purity so these materials are not treated as substitutes.
Is L-theanine the same as green tea extract?
No. Tea extract is a multi-component botanical ingredient with its own composition and marker specification. This page covers L-theanine as a defined bulk ingredient, not tea solids or an extract blend.
Does this page cover premixes and finished L-theanine supplements?
No. Carrier premixes, beverage blends, tablets, capsules and other finished products have separate compositions and dosage-form specifications. State separately if the enquiry is for a formulated product.
Which specification details matter for L-theanine?
State the L stereochemical identity, assay and impurity criteria, source basis, moisture and particle requirements, application and requested documentation. Numerical limits should come from the buyer's specification.
What is needed for an L-theanine quotation in Malaysia?
Provide the grade, stereochemical and assay requirements, source basis, quantity and delivery location. Add preferred packing and documentation needs so availability and delivery timing can be confirmed with the offer.
