Description

Calcium Di-β-Alaninate is a specialized, organically-bound calcium complex derived from the amino acid β-alanine. This compound is engineered to offer superior bioavailability and stability compared to inorganic calcium salts, making it a high-value ingredient for advanced nutritional and pharmaceutical formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, functional food, and animal feed industries seeking to enhance product efficacy with a well-tolerated and efficiently absorbed calcium source.

Application

• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: As a highly bioavailable source of calcium for bone health, muscle function, and cardiovascular support supplements.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: For enriching products like dairy alternatives, sports nutrition drinks, and cereal bars with a stable, organically-complexed calcium.
• Pharmaceutical Preparations: Used in the formulation of mineral supplements and therapeutic products requiring enhanced calcium absorption.
• Animal Nutrition (Premixes & Feed): Incorporated into feed for livestock, poultry, and pets to support skeletal development and metabolic functions.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Potential use in skincare formulations for its role in skin barrier function and as a stabilizing agent.
• Research & Development: Serves as a key intermediate or reference standard in biochemical and nutritional studies.

Quality Control

Our Calcium Di-β-Alaninate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for nutritional and pharmaceutical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, potency, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
