Description

Magnesium Di(D-Glycero-D-Gulo-Heptonate) is a high-purity, organically complexed magnesium salt derived from a specific sugar acid. This compound matters for its enhanced bioavailability and stability compared to inorganic magnesium sources, making it a superior choice for sensitive formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries seeking a reliable, soluble magnesium source for advanced dietary supplements and specialized medical nutrition products.

Application

• Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in magnesium supplementation therapies.
• Key mineral source in high-end nutraceutical and dietary supplement formulations.
• Excipient or mineral fortifier in specialized medical nutrition products (e.g., enteral feeds).
• Raw material for research and development in bioinorganic chemistry and mineral metabolism studies.
• Component in cosmetic or dermatological preparations where magnesium delivery is required.

Quality Control

Our Magnesium Di(D-Glycero-D-Gulo-Heptonate) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. While we offer standard pharmaceutical-grade material, production can be aligned with specific pharmacopeial monographs or customer requirements upon request. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are provided with every shipment.

Storage

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