Magnesium Alpha-Ketoglutarate (Magnesium AKG)

Magnesium alpha-ketoglutarate (magnesium AKG) is the magnesium salt of alpha-ketoglutaric acid, a dicarboxylic keto acid that is an intermediate of the citric acid (Krebs) cycle. Nustras supplies it as a powder, made by our represented factory, as a combined source of magnesium and alpha-ketoglutarate for supplement manufacturing. Magnesium is an essential mineral and a cofactor for several hundred enzymes.

Magnesium AKG is formulated into capsules, tablets and powdered supplement blends, sports-nutrition and amino-acid formulas, mineral premixes for functional foods and beverages, and medical nutrition products where an alpha-ketoglutarate salt is specified.

The material is a powder standardised to specification for alpha-ketoglutarate and magnesium content, with identity confirmed by infrared spectroscopy or an equivalent method, alpha-ketoglutarate assay by HPLC or titration and magnesium by complexometric titration or ICP. CAS 42083-41-0, molecular weight 168.39. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies magnesium alpha-ketoglutarate 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. Magnesium AKG is a supplement ingredient whose listing varies by market; buyers confirm the elemental-magnesium contribution, listing and permitted level for their application.
