Calcium glycerophosphate

Calcium glycerophosphate (CAS 27214-00-2), also known as beta-glycerophosphoric acid calcium salt, is an organic calcium and phosphorus salt used across food, pharmaceutical, and personal care manufacturing. It delivers both mineral nutrients in a single compound, making it a preferred source for calcium and phosphorus fortification where solubility and tolerability matter for the final product.

In oral care formulations, it is incorporated into toothpastes and mouth rinses as a remineralizing agent that helps restore enamel mineral content. This makes it a versatile ingredient for dental health. Food and supplement manufacturers use it to fortify products such as infant formula, nutritional beverages, and dietary supplements where a bioavailable calcium-phosphorus source is required for health.

Pharmaceutical formulators select it as an excipient and active mineral source in tablet and liquid dosage forms. In cosmetic products, it functions as a stabilizer and pH buffer in skin-contact formulations. Calcium glycerophosphate is supplied as a white powder. It is available in food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications, with compliance to USP, BP, and Ph. Eur. monographs.

These monographs are commonly referenced by buyers to ensure safety. FCC-grade material is also available for food and supplement applications requiring documented purity standards for production.
