Description

Citric Acid, Manganese Sodium Salt is a coordination complex formed from citric acid and manganese(II) with sodium counterions. This compound is valued for its role as a bioavailable source of manganese, an essential trace element, in various nutritional and technical formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the animal feed, food fortification, and pharmaceutical industries where a stable, soluble, and highly absorbable form of manganese is required.

Application

• Animal Feed Additive: Serves as a critical trace mineral premix to prevent manganese deficiency and support bone development, reproduction, and metabolic functions in livestock and poultry.
• Human Nutritional Supplements: Used in vitamin and mineral formulations, including tablets, capsules, and liquid supplements, due to its excellent bioavailability and stability.
• Food Fortification: Incorporated into food products such as infant formula, cereals, and meal replacement shakes to enhance their nutritional manganese content.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Acts as a source of manganese in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and in parenteral nutrition solutions.
• Technical & Industrial Applications: Functions in specialized chemical processes, including catalysts and as a stabilizer in certain polymer systems.
• Agricultural Solutions: Used in foliar sprays and fertilizer blends to correct manganese deficiencies in crops, promoting healthy plant growth.
