◆ Product Description

Potassium Glycerophosphate (KGP) is an organic phosphate compound derived from glycerophosphoric acid and potassium. It is typically supplied as a white or almost white crystalline powder, freely soluble in water and physiologically well tolerated.

KGP is widely used as a highly bioavailable source of potassium and phosphorus in pharmaceutical, nutritional, and medical formulations. Owing to its organic phosphate structure, it offers superior compatibility and absorption compared with inorganic phosphates, making it particularly suitable for sensitive applications.

📄 Certificate of Analysis (COA), 📘 Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), and 📑 Technical Data Sheet (TDS) are available to support formulation development, regulatory review, and quality assurance.

◆ Applications

💊 Pharmaceutical & Medical Applications

Potassium Glycerophosphate is extensively used in pharmaceutical formulations as a physiologically compatible potassium and phosphorus source, especially where gentle electrolyte replenishment is required. Typical uses include oral electrolyte supplements, injectable and parenteral nutrition solutions, and clinical formulations supporting cellular energy metabolism and mineral balance.

🥗 Nutritional & Dietary Supplements

In nutritional applications, KGP is valued for its high absorption rate and low irritation profile. It is commonly incorporated into mineral tablets and capsules, effervescent electrolyte powders, sports nutrition products, and medical nutrition designed for elderly, post-operative, or nutritionally vulnerable populations.

🧬 Biotechnology & Laboratory Use

KGP may also be applied in specialized biochemical systems, including cell culture media and fermentation processes, where an organic phosphate source is preferred over inorganic phosphates.
