Product Overview

Calcium L-Lactate (CAS No. 814-80-2, E327) is the calcium salt of L-lactic acid. It appears as a white crystalline powder or granules, highly soluble in hot water, and widely recognized for its excellent bioavailability. Due to its neutral taste and stable properties, Calcium L-Lactate is an ideal ingredient for fortifying foods and beverages with calcium, as well as for use in dietary supplements and pharmaceutical formulations.

Specifications

• Chemical Name: Calcium L-Lactate

• CAS Number: 814-80-2

• E Number: E327

• EINECS Number: 212-406-7

• Molecular Formula: C₆H₁₀CaO₆ · xH₂O

• Appearance: White crystalline powder or granules

• Assay (Ca content): 98.0–101.0% (on dry basis)

• Calcium Content: 13.0–14.5%

• Solubility: Freely soluble in hot water; slightly soluble in cold water; insoluble in ethanol

Production Method

Calcium L-Lactate is produced by the neutralization of natural L-lactic acid with high-purity calcium carbonate or calcium hydroxide. This process ensures that the product maintains the bioactive L-configuration, which is easily absorbed and metabolized by the human body.

Raw Materials

• L-Lactic Acid (natural fermentation source such as corn or sugarcane)

• Calcium Carbonate / Calcium Hydroxide (pharmaceutical or food grade)

Working Principle

Calcium L-Lactate provides a stable and readily bioavailable source of calcium. Once ingested, it dissociates into calcium ions and lactate in the gastrointestinal tract. The calcium ions are absorbed in the intestine to support bone mineralization, nerve transmission, and muscular function, while the lactate component is naturally metabolized to energy.

Applications

1. Food Industry:

• Used as a calcium fortifier in beverages, dairy products, confectionery, baked goods, and jellies.

• Functions as a firming agent and stabilizer.

2. Nutraceuticals & Dietary Supplements:

• Incorporated into tablets, capsules, and functional foods as a calcium source.

• Preferred due to its mild taste and excellent solubility.

3. Pharmaceutical Industry:

• Used in calcium supplements and syrups to prevent and treat calcium deficiency.

• Safe and well-tolerated in long-term use.

4. Animal Nutrition & Agriculture:

• Added to feed formulations to support healthy bone development and growth in livestock and poultry.
