About Manganese Gluconate TPS
Manganese gluconate is a manganese salt of gluconic acid with the chemical formula C12H22MnO14 x 2H2O. It is typically obtained by reacting manganese carbonate with gluconic acid in aqueous medium and then crystallizing the product to form a slightly pink powder. Manganese gluconate is a direct ingredient in food substances as a nutrient supplement. In pharmaceutical preparations, it is used as a manganese supplement.
Manganese gluconate is currently only available in combination products. It is indicated for the prophylactic or nutritional supplementation of Manganese. This salt dissociates in body fluids to form manganese and gluconic acid. Its pharmacological effects are due to the normal role of Manganese in the body. Manganese helps the body form connective tissue, bones, blood clotting factors, and sex hormones. It also plays a role in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, calcium absorption, and blood sugar regulation. Manganese is also necessary for normal brain and nerve function.
