N Acetyl D Glucosamine Powder

Products Description

N Acetyl D Glucosamine Powder (NAG) is a naturally occurring amino sugar derived primarily from the hydrolysis of chitin, which is extracted from crustacean shells such as shrimp and crab. It is a well-characterized monosaccharide derivative widely used as a raw material in the food and nutraceutical industries. Industrial production involves enzymatic or chemical hydrolysis followed by purification to obtain a high-purity, water-soluble, and fine crystalline powder.

N Acetyl D Glucosamine Powder demonstrates excellent stability under standard processing conditions and is compatible with a variety of food and beverage matrices. Recognized for its safety and regulatory acceptance, NAG is suitable for use in dietary supplements, infant nutrition, and functional foods. Its reliable quality, ease of handling, and consistent physicochemical properties make it an attractive choice for international B2B manufacturers seeking versatile, science-backed ingredients for health-oriented products.
