Magnesium alpha-ketoglutarate (Mg-AKG) is the magnesium salt of alpha-ketoglutaric acid, a pivotal intermediate in the Krebs cycle. It is produced via controlled neutralization of high-purity alpha-ketoglutaric acid with a magnesium source, yielding a stable, water-soluble compound. Our material is manufactured under cGMP conditions and assays at ≥98.0% by HPLC, ensuring consistent quality for demanding applications.
As a bioavailable source of both magnesium and alpha-ketoglutarate, Mg-AKG is gaining traction in sports nutrition, clinical nutrition, and metabolic health formulations. It offers formulators a dual-functional ingredient that supports cellular energy metabolism and mineral balance without the gastrointestinal discomfort often associated with inorganic magnesium salts.
With the rising demand for chelated minerals and Krebs cycle intermediates, Mg-AKG stands out for its solubility, stability, and evidence-backed role in ATP production. We supply this ingredient to supplement brands, pharmaceutical companies, and research institutions worldwide, backed by robust documentation and scalable production.
