Jungbunzlauer Suisse AG Trimagnesium Citrate meets the requirements of the US Pharmacopeia (USP) and/or the European Pharmacopeia (Ph.Eur.) always in their latest versions.Trimagnesium Citrates are produced by complete neutralization of citric acid with a high purity magnesium source, subsequent precipitation and dehydration. The two commonly available forms are trimagnesium citrate anhydrous and trimagnesium citrate nonahydrate. In some countries such as USA, trimagnesium citrate is simply denominated magnesium citrate. Trimagnesium citrate is mainly used as mineral source in food supplements, foods for particular nutritional purposes, and pharmaceutical preparations. Comparable to other magnesium salts, it shows a laxative effect at higher dosage levels. An agglomerated trimagnesium citrate anhydrous is available for direct compression of tablets. Being an excellent desiccant, it is commonly used to stabilize dry blends and to protect water sensitive ingredients. Magnesium citrates are organic mineral sources and are preferred in many applications to inorganic sources because of their superior bioavailability and physiological compatibility. Trimagnesium citrate anhydrous has the highest magnesium content (16%) among the organic magnesium sources commonly used, the magnesium content of the nonahydrate is 12%. Trimagnesium citrate is supplied as a white to almost white powder. It is practically odorless, soluble in water, freely soluble in diluted acid and practically insoluble in ethanol (96%). generally, hydrated forms of trimagnesium citrates are less soluble than the anhydrous type.granulation types are available as Powder and TMC GN.

Jungbunzlauer Citric acid DC is a direct compressible type of citric acid coated with a thin layer of maltodextrin.

Jungbunzlauer Suisse AG Potassium Gluconate is supplied in accordance with the requirements of the Food Chemicals Codex (FCC), the US Pharmacopeia (USP) and the Commission Regulation (EU) No. 231/2012 always in their latest versions.Potassium gluconate is the potassium salt of gluconic acid, which is obtained from glucose by fermentation and subsequent neutralization with a potassium source. Potassium gluconate is recommended for introducing or enriching potassium in food, especially in dietetic food. Furthermore the product acts as a buffer salt and as a salt replacer in foodstuffs where sodium salts are not desired. In pharmaceuticals, it serves as a potassium source against potassium deficiency or as a systemic alkaliser. Potassium gluconate is also used in technical applications e.g. as sequestering agent in textiles or for galvanic surface treatment. Potassium gluconate is a free flowing, white to slightly yellow, crystalline powder with a slightly bitter taste.Furthermore, it is non-toxic and possesses good physiological compatibility so that it may be used in food and pharmaceutical products. Jungbunzlauer potassium gluconate is supplied in its anhydrous form and shows little hygroscopic behavior. Aqueous solutions of potassium gluconate resist oxidation and reduction, even at high temperatures, and are not corrosive. It is easily biologically degradable and consequently, provides no wastewater problem. The directly compressible form potassium gluconate shows optimal tableting properties due to its amorphous structure.
