CAS 35947-07-0 Calcium Glycinate Powder

Calcium glycinate is the most advanced new generation product among calcium nutritional enhancers. It has a chelated structure, stable chemical structure, good water solubility, and high absorption rate. Experiments have shown that the surface absorption rate is 6% higher than that of calcium lactate. It is a chelate composed of two glycines and a calcium ion. It is a short peptide chain. Its absorption does not require the cooperation of vitamin D. It can easily penetrate the intestinal epithelial cell membrane and be absorbed directly through the human intestine. Moreover, the chelated structure material is stable in nature and is not easily combined with oxalic acid, plant acid and other substances in food and consumed by the human intestine. It will not cause calculi in the body, which greatly improves the utilization rate of calcium by the human body. It is the latest generation of calcium preparations.

The theoretical calcium content of calcium glycinate is 19.4%, which is white crystals. Calcium glycinate has a stable chemical structure and an absorption rate of 44%, which is higher than other common calcium salts. It has a wide utilization rate and does not require the cooperation of vitamin D. It can better penetrate the intestinal epithelium and be absorbed directly through the human intestine. Therefore, calcium glycinate can effectively reduce the gastrointestinal temperature and lead to the rapid excretion of metal elements, playing a role in shielding metal ions. In the food industry, calcium glycinate is mostly used in high-end calcium supplement products, feed, aquatic feed and other products.

● Absorption Rate: The absorption rate of calcium glycinate is higher than that of organic acid calcium salts.

● Functional Characteristics: It can chelate harmful metal elements in the body, promoting their rapid excretion, while also masking metal ions.

● Application Fields: As a third-generation calcium nutritional fortifier, it is widely used in industries such as milk powder, soybean powder, soy milk powder, and solid beverage manufacturing.

● Granular Calcium Glycinate: The granules are uniform, with good dispersibility and compressibility, making it suitable for tablet products and the solid beverage industry.

● Microsphere Powder Calcium Glycinate: It has good dispersibility, a reduced bitter taste, and excellent premixing effect, making it suitable for solid mixed products.

In summary, both conventional and formulated forms of calcium glycinate possess excellent characteristics and are suitable for various food and nutritional supplement fields.

Calcium glycinate can be added to a variety of food products, including dairy products (such as milk powder, milk, soy milk), solid beverages, grain-based health products, salt, and other foods. Compared to other calcium supplements like calcium gluconate, calcium glycinate is more easily absorbed by the human body.

● Children's Food, Health Supplements, and Sports Drinks:

Due to its good solubility and high absorption rate, calcium glycinate is suitable for fortifying children's food, health supplements, and sports drinks. Its high solubility also makes it ideal for formulating fruit-flavored, high-calcium concentrates and products like yogurt.

● Fried Foods and Pastries:

Adding an appropriate amount of calcium glycinate during the production of fried foods or pastries not only strengthens the nutritional content but also helps prevent oil oxidation and food discoloration, thereby improving the sensory quality of the products.

● Multifunctional Uses:

Calcium glycinate can serve as a calcium fortifier and nutritional agent in foods, helping with bone formation and maintaining normal excitability of nerves and muscles. Additionally, it can be used as a buffer and coagulant.

In summary, calcium glycinate has wide application value in food fortification, nutritional supplementation, and food processing, offering both functional and sensory improvement benefits.
