  • Applications

    Magnesium pyruvite (CAS 81686-75-1) is commonly used as a biochemical reagent and a source of pyruvate with Mg2+ in enzymatic studies and microbial culture media, supplying pyruvate and magnesium ions for biological assay systems; it is regarded as a building block for organic synthesis, enabling the introduction of a pyruvate moiety into organic frameworks; in cosmetics and personal care, the salt may be used as a source of pyruvate and Mg2+ that can contribute to formulation stability; in industrial chemical manufacturing, magnesium pyruvate can serve as a building block or precursor for pyruvate-derived compounds and related processing steps; applications are subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
