L-Ornithine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (OAKG)

L-Ornithine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (OAKG)

Details
L-Ornithine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (OAKG) is a stable salt synthesized from L-Ornithine and Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid. It is widely used in sports nutrition, healthy aging products, functional foods, and specialized amino acid formulations. By combining two active components into a single molecule, OAKG simplifies raw material procurement, lowers formulation complexity, and improves production efficiency compared to sourcing L-Ornithine and Alpha-Ketoglutarate separately.

Key Advantages for Manufacturers


High Batch-to-Batch Consistency
To ensure predictable finished product quality, every lot undergoes rigorous purity and assay testing prior to release.


Superior Processing Performance
Supplied as a free-flowing crystalline powder with excellent water solubility, OAKG delivers: Efficient dry-blending and uniform ingredient distribution. Consistent capsule filling and smooth tablet compression. Rapid dissolution in ready-to-mix (RTM) beverage applications.


Enhanced Storage Stability
Controlled moisture levels (Loss on Drying <= 1.0%) and protective double-layer packaging help prevent caking during international transport and long-term storage.
