CalciumD-gluconate,medicinal

Product name:Sodium Gluconate

Molecular Formula:C12H22CaO14

Structural Formula:

Calcium gluconate is an organic calcium salt with a series of notable characteristics:

First of all, from the perspective of physical properties, calcium gluconate is a white crystalline granule or powder, odorless and tasteless, easily soluble in boiling water, but slightly slower in cold water. This feature makes its application under different conditions more flexible.

Secondly, the aqueous solution of calcium gluconate is neutral, with a pH value of about 6 to 7, which makes it more compatible when mixed with other substances and reduces the risk of chemical reactions.

In application fields, calcium gluconate has a wide range of uses:

In the field of medicine, it is not only an effective and non-toxic calcium supplement, it can be used for calcium supplementation during the growth period of children, women during pregnancy and lactation, and calcium deficiency diseases in the elderly. It also helps reduce the permeability of capillaries. , maintain normal excitability of nerves and muscles, thereby increasing contractility and promoting bone formation. In addition, calcium gluconate is also used clinically to treat urticaria, eczema, contact dermatitis, pruritus, angioedema, and serum sickness.

In the food industry, calcium gluconate is commonly used as a calcium fortifier and nutrient for food, as well as a buffer, solidifying agent, chelating agent, etc., to increase the nutritional value of food and improve the taste and texture of food.

In addition, the preparation process of calcium gluconate is also relatively mature. The main production methods include fermentation, homogeneous oxidation, electro-oxidation, heterogeneous oxidation, etc. The application of these methods has improved the production efficiency and purity of calcium gluconate.
