Calcium Magnesium Alpha-Ketoglutarate Complex

Calcium magnesium alpha-ketoglutarate complex is a mixed mineral salt of alpha-ketoglutaric acid in which the acid is bound to both calcium and magnesium. Nustras supplies it as a powder for supplement use. Alpha-ketoglutarate is an intermediate of the citric acid cycle and a precursor of the amino acid glutamate; calcium and magnesium are major minerals.

The complex is formulated into mineral supplements in tablets, capsules and powders, into sports-nutrition powders and ready-to-mix drinks, into nutritional premixes and into functional beverages, where a mineral-bound form of alpha-ketoglutarate is preferred to the free acid for its neutral taste and easier handling.

The material is a white to off-white powder, standardised to specification for calcium, magnesium and alpha-ketoglutarate content. The minerals are assayed by ICP or complexometric titration and alpha-ketoglutarate by HPLC; identity is confirmed by infrared spectroscopy. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies calcium magnesium alpha-ketoglutarate complex in bulk commercial quantities, in food-grade bags and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Calcium, magnesium and alpha-ketoglutarate salts are accepted supplement ingredients in major markets; buyers confirm the permitted level for their application.
