Biological Characteristics
Calcium malate is a new - type calcium - fortified nutrient. It has the characteristics of high solubility, high biological utilization rate, low iron - absorption hindrance, good taste, and safety and non - toxicity. Its component malic acid is an intermediate metabolite in the body's tricarboxylic acid cycle, which can ensure the slow release of calcium ions.
Uses
It is widely used in the food, health product, and pharmaceutical fields. It can be used as a calcium - fortified agent to prevent and treat calcium - deficiency diseases, such as osteoporosis, tetany, osteogenesis imperfecta, rickets, etc. It can also be used for calcium supplementation in pregnant and lactating women, post - menopausal women and other groups.
Packaging and Storage
Usually packaged in 25 - kg/50 - kg cartons/bags/drums, or 500 - kg bags. It needs to be stored in a clean, dry, and sealed container.
