Overview
Calcium glycinate (CAS 35947-07-0 ), also known as calcium bisglycinate, is an amino acid-chelated mineral in which calcium is bound to glycine for enhanced bioavailability compared to inorganic calcium salts.
It functions as a bioavailable calcium source across nutritional, pharmaceutical, and agricultural applications. In dietary supplements and functional foods, it delivers calcium with improved gastrointestinal tolerance.
This makes it a preferred choice for high-potency tablet, capsule, and powder formulations. Food and beverage manufacturers incorporate it into fortified products including dairy alternatives and infant nutrition.
It is also used in sports nutrition formats where clean-label mineral delivery is a formulation priority. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it serves as an active mineral ingredient in bone health preparations.
The material is frequently used in prenatal preparations where the absorption profile influences product positioning. Animal feed producers use it to supply bioavailable calcium in premixes and compound feeds.
This is particularly effective where digestive efficiency in monogastric animals is a key performance target. Calcium glycinate is supplied as a white to off-white powder available in food-grade and feed-grade.
Some suppliers offer material compliant with USP or Ph. Eur. standards for specialized applications. Bulk quantities are standard for industrial buyers with various packaging options.
Packaging typically ranges from kilogram quantities to metric ton volumes to suit different manufacturing scales. This ensures a reliable supply chain for large-scale production requirements globally.
