Why did my 200 mM L-Glutamine precipitate out of solution when I thawed it?

When L-glutamine is in a concentrated stock solution it easily precipitates when cooled. Warming the solution briefly in a 37C water bath with gentle swirling will dissolve the precipitate. Do not use the product unless the precipitate is fully dissolved.
