Description

Magnesiumchlorophyllin is a water-soluble, semi-synthetic derivative of chlorophyll, where the central magnesium ion is retained. This compound is valued for its stability, intense green color, and bioactive properties, making it a superior alternative to natural chlorophyll in many applications. It is essential for manufacturers in the nutraceutical, food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries seeking a consistent, high-quality coloring and functional agent.

Application

• As a natural green colorant in beverages, confectionery, dairy products, and processed foods.
• Key ingredient in dietary supplements and nutraceuticals for its purported antioxidant and deodorizing properties.
• Used in cosmetic and personal care formulations such as soaps, creams, and toothpaste for coloring and functional benefits.
• Applied in pharmaceutical products, including tablets and capsules, as a colorant and excipient.
• Utilized in diagnostic and research reagents as a biochemical stain or marker.
• Potential use in pet food and animal feed as a safe coloring additive.

Quality Control

Our Magnesiumchlorophyllin is produced and tested under strict quality management systems. We ensure compliance with relevant food grade (FCC) and pharmaceutical standards where applicable. Each batch is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and safety parameters, guaranteeing consistency and reliability for your production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to air and humidity.
