Group at CAS Chengdu Institute of Biology develop improved method for L-serine production

The method starts from L-cystein and follows a chemical route through N-protection of the thioester, hydrolyzing the thioester to N-protected halogenated L-alanine and saponifying in alkaline solution. After deprotection, L-serine is isolated by ethanol precipitation.
