Creatine pyruvate
Description
Creatine pyruvate (CAS 208535-04-0) is a salt combining creatine and pyruvic acid, offering higher solubility and bioavailability than standard creatine monohydrate. It functions as a performance and energy metabolism ingredient in sports nutrition and health supplement formulations.
In sports nutrition, it is used in pre-workout and endurance supplements where improved creatine uptake and sustained energy release are formulation priorities. Pyruvate's role in cellular energy pathways makes this compound relevant for functional food and beverage products.
These products often target athletic recovery and metabolic support. Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers incorporate it into capsule and tablet formats where enhanced bioavailability justifies the premium over conventional creatine salts.
Animal feed and veterinary nutrition represent a secondary channel, particularly in performance animal diets requiring efficient creatine delivery. The compound is highly valued for its dual-action metabolic benefits in various biological systems.
Creatine pyruvate is supplied as a white crystalline powder. It is available in food-grade and nutraceutical-grade specifications, with buyers typically evaluating purity levels of 98% and above for supplement applications.
Bulk quantities are standard for contract manufacturers, with smaller quantities available for R&D and formulation development. The material is processed to meet rigorous industry benchmarks including FCC and USP quality standards.
Our supply chain ensures consistent particle size and stability for seamless integration into dry mix or liquid formulations. This ensures that the final product maintains its efficacy and shelf life across diverse global markets.
