Description

Magnesium L-Lactate Hydrate is a high-purity, bioavailable magnesium salt of L-lactic acid. This compound serves as a superior source of essential magnesium, offering excellent solubility and bioavailability compared to inorganic alternatives. It is primarily utilized in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries for dietary supplements, as well as in food fortification and specialized chemical synthesis where a highly soluble magnesium source is required.

Application

• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical Formulations: As a key active ingredient or excipient in magnesium supplements, tablets, capsules, and liquid preparations.
• Food & Beverage Fortification: Used to enrich foods and drinks, such as sports nutrition products, health beverages, and functional foods, with bioavailable magnesium.
• Dietary Supplement Manufacturing: A preferred magnesium source for its high absorption rate and compatibility in various supplement delivery systems.
• Biochemical Research & Reagents: Employed in laboratory settings as a component of cell culture media, buffers, and enzymatic reaction mixtures.
• Specialty Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a catalyst or reagent in organic synthesis processes requiring a soluble magnesium ion source.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Incorporated into topical formulations for its potential skin-conditioning properties.
