Magnesium taurate

Magnesium taurate (CAS 92785-94-9) is an organic magnesium salt formed from magnesium and taurine, combining mineral and amino acid supplementation in a single compound. It is recognized in trade as magnesium ditaurate and is sourced primarily for use in dietary supplements.

This compound is utilized in functional nutrition products where bioavailability of magnesium is a formulation priority. In nutraceutical manufacturing, it is used in capsule, tablet, and powder supplement formats targeting magnesium and taurine co-supplementation.

Sports nutrition and functional food formulators incorporate it into products where amino acid-mineral combinations are a label differentiator. Animal feed and veterinary supplement producers use it as a dual-function additive for livestock and companion animal diets.

Pharmaceutical-grade applications include use in finished dosage forms where controlled mineral delivery and formulation stability are required. Magnesium taurate is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder for various industrial applications.

It is available in food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications, with the latter conforming to relevant pharmacopoeial standards where applicable. This includes compliance with USP, BP, and EP quality standards for global distribution.

Bulk supply is standard in kilogram and metric ton quantities to meet the needs of large-scale manufacturing. Documentation including COA, heavy metal testing, and microbiological data is typically provided for regulated markets.
