Description

Calcium Ascorbate USP

Calcium Ascorbate USP is a high-purity mineral ascorbate used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and food applications as a buffered source of Vitamin C. Compliant with United States Pharmacopeia (USP) standards, it provides antioxidant activity and nutritional supplementation while delivering Calcium in a well-tolerated form.
Calcium Ascorbate appears as a white to slightly yellow crystalline powder that is readily soluble in water and stable under recommended storage conditions. As a salt of Ascorbic Acid and Calcium, it offers reduced acidity compared with Ascorbic Acid alone, making it suitable for formulations designed to minimize gastrointestinal irritation.
In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications, Calcium Ascorbate USP is used in:
• Vitamin C nutritional supplements
• Multivitamin and mineral formulations
• Effervescent tablets and powder blends
• Antioxidant systems for pharmaceutical and food products
• Nutritional fortification of beverages and functional foods
• Research involving antioxidant activity and nutrient stability
Calcium Ascorbate USP functions as a stable antioxidant that supports protection against oxidative degradation in formulations while also contributing to nutritional Vitamin C intake. The presence of Calcium provides an additional mineral component useful in balanced nutritional products.
