2.16 Toxicity Summary
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: L-Proline; is a solid. It is used in biochemical and nutritional research, microbiological tests, culture media, as a laboratory reagent, and dietary supplement. It is also used in pharmaceutical preparations for injection or infusion. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: There are no data available. ANIMAL STUDIES: In a 30-day study, a group of seven female rats were given L-proline; at a dose of 50 mg/kg bw per day in water;. A group of 10 rats served as the control group. After 30 days, all animals were weighed, necropsied, and subjected to a complete gross examination. Histopathology and microscopic examinations of the liver and kidneys were conducted. Samples of serum were obtained for determination of enzyme activities, and concentrations of creatinine; and total protein. There were no treatment-related effects in rats given L-proline; at 50 mg/ kg bw per day compared with the controls. Of 20 common amino acids only proline enhanced formation of mutagenic activity measured in S typhimurium TA98 with rat liver microsomes. In the assay for reverse mutation in Salmonella typhimurium, negative results were reported for L-proline; at concentrations of up to 1000 mg/mL, with and without metabolic activation, in several strains of S. typhimurium (TA92, TA97, TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1530, TA1531, TA1532, TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, and TA1964). ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: Proline-treated plants showed high antioxidant enzymes activities (superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione; peroxydase) in roots and leaves as compared to Cd-treated plants. Proline plays an important role in plant response to various environmental stresses. For example, proline supplementation alleviated the deleterious effects of young olive plants exposed to Cd stress.
3. Use and Manufacturing
3.1 Description

L-Proline is highly soluble in water, forming a clear solution. It has a melting point of 228-232°C and a boiling point of 214-216°C. This chemical is stable under normal conditions and is both odorless and tasteless.

Applicable Fields
L-Proline has various applications in different fields:

Pharmaceutical Industry: L-Proline is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a building block for the synthesis of peptides and proteins. It is an essential component in the production of drugs, such as antibiotics, antiviral agents, and immunosuppressants. L-Proline also plays a role in wound healing and tissue repair.

Nutritional Supplements: L-Proline is used as a dietary supplement to support joint health and promote collagen synthesis.

3.3 Methods of Manufacturing
From alpha-piperidone;; from cyclopentantone; from l-glutamic acid;
3.4 Purification Methods
A likely impurity is hydroxyproline. Purify L-proline via its picrate which is crystallised twice from water, then decomposed with 40% H2SO4. The picric acid is extracted with diethyl ether, the H2SO4 in solution is precipitated with Ba(OH)2, and the filtrate is evaporated. The residue is crystallised from hot absolute EtOH [Mellan & Hoover J Am Chem Soc 73 3879 1951] or EtOH/Et2O. Its solubility in H2O is >100%. It sublimes at 182-187o/0.3mm with 99.4% recovery and unracemised [Gross & Gradsky J Am Chem Soc 77 1678 1955]. It is hygroscopic and is stored in a desiccator.
