Product Details of Manganese Gluconate​

1. Basic Information​

1.1 Chemical Formula​

The chemical formula of manganese gluconate exists in two common forms. The anhydrous form is ​

C12​H22​MnO14​

, while the more prevalent dihydrate form is ​

C12​H22​MnO14​⋅2H2​O

. These formulas reflect the combination of gluconic acid moieties with manganese ions and water molecules in the case of the dihydrate.​

1.2 Molecular Weight​

For the anhydrous manganese gluconate, the molecular weight is approximately 445.24 g/mol. When considering the dihydrate form, which contains two additional water molecules, the molecular weight increases to about 481.27 g/mol. These molecular weight values are crucial for accurately calculating dosages in various applications, such as in nutritional supplements and pharmaceutical preparations.​

1.3 Physical Properties​

Manganese gluconate typically appears as a light pink granular or crystalline powder. It is odorless, which is an advantage in applications where an absence of odor is desired, such as in food and dietary supplements. It exhibits good solubility in water, with the ability to dissolve readily, making it suitable for aqueous - based formulations. However, it is only slightly soluble in ethanol, which restricts its use in alcohol - based products.​

1.4 Standards Compliance​

Our manganese gluconate strictly adheres to the GB 1903.7 - 2015 standard. This standard comprehensively regulates aspects such as the product's appearance, identification methods, purity requirements, heavy metal limits, and microbiological criteria. By complying with this standard, we ensure that our product meets the highest quality and safety standards for use in different industries.​

2. Pharmacological and Physiological Functions​

Manganese is an essential trace element for the normal functioning of the human body, and manganese gluconate plays several important roles:​

2.1 Enzyme Activation and Metabolism​

It serves as an activator for numerous enzymes in the body. These enzymes are involved in a wide range of metabolic processes, including fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis. By activating these enzymes, manganese gluconate promotes the body's overall metabolic capacity, facilitating the efficient breakdown and utilization of nutrients for energy production and the synthesis of essential biomolecules.​

2.2 Bone Growth and Development​

Manganese is crucial for the proper development and maintenance of bones. It participates in the formation of bone matrix and the regulation of bone - related enzymes. Adequate intake of manganese gluconate can contribute to healthy bone growth, helping to prevent conditions such as osteoporosis by ensuring proper bone density and structure.​

2.3 Brain Function and Nervous System Support​

It is an important nutrient for the brain and nervous system. Manganese is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters, which are essential for nerve impulse transmission. This plays a vital role in maintaining normal cognitive function, memory, and mood regulation. A deficiency in manganese may lead to cognitive impairments and neurological disorders.​

2.4 Blood Sugar Regulation and Lactation Support​

Manganese gluconate also aids in blood sugar regulation. It is involved in the function of enzymes related to glucose metabolism, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels. Additionally, it plays a role in the production of breast milk in lactating women, ensuring proper nutrition for the infant.​

2.5 Fatigue Relief and Digestive Aid​

Consumption of manganese - containing supplements like manganese gluconate can help relieve fatigue. Manganese is involved in energy - producing metabolic pathways, and its adequate supply can enhance the body's energy - generating capacity. Moreover, it can assist in the digestive process by promoting the function of digestive enzymes, improving nutrient absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.​

3. Indications​

3.1 Prevention and Treatment of Manganese Deficiency​

Manganese gluconate is primarily used for the prevention and treatment of manganese deficiency conditions. In cases where an individual's diet is insufficient in manganese, supplementation with manganese gluconate can help correct the deficiency. Symptoms of manganese deficiency may include impaired growth, skeletal abnormalities, and altered glucose and lipid metabolism.​

3.2 Nutritional Fortification​

It is widely used as a nutritional fortifier in the food and health - care industries. By adding manganese gluconate to various food products and dietary supplements, the manganese content in the diet can be increased, ensuring that consumers meet their daily manganese requirements. This is particularly important for certain population groups, such as infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, and the elderly, who may have higher manganese needs.​

4. Application Areas​

4.1 Food Industry​

4.1.1 Dairy Products​

Manganese gluconate can be added to dairy products such as milk, yogurt, and cheese. According to the regulations of GB2760 - 1996, the recommended dosage in dairy products is 1.08 - 4.32 mg/kg. This fortification helps to increase the nutritional value of dairy products, providing consumers with an additional source of manganese.​

4.1.2 Infant and Child Foods​

In infant formula and other foods for children, manganese gluconate is also used as a nutritional enhancer. The dosage in infant formula foods is typically 1.32 - 5.26 mg/kg. Manganese is essential for the healthy growth and development of infants and children, and its inclusion in these foods helps to meet their specific nutritional requirements.​

4.1.3 Special Dietary Foods and Sports Nutrition Products​

For individuals with special dietary needs, such as those following a restricted diet or athletes with increased nutritional demands, manganese gluconate - fortified foods can be beneficial. In sports nutrition products, it can help athletes maintain optimal metabolic function, support muscle recovery, and enhance energy levels during training and competition.​

4.2 Health - care Industry​

4.2.1 Dietary Supplements​

Manganese gluconate is a common ingredient in dietary supplements.
