Product Overview
N-Acetylneuraminic Acid (Neu5Ac or NANA), commonly known as Sialic Acid, is a naturally occurring carbohydrate found widely in mammalian tissues and especially concentrated in glycoproteins and glycolipids. It is a critical component of cell surface membranes and plays a vital role in cellular recognition and signaling.
SRBio N-Acetylneuraminic Acid is produced through advanced fermentation or high-precision synthesis, resulting in a crystalline powder of exceptional purity. Our ingredient is designed for manufacturers seeking to enhance the nutritional profile of infant formulas, cognitive support supplements, and wellness-focused functional foods.

Key Advantages
1. Exceptional Molecular Purity
SRBio utilizes a multi-stage purification process to ensure every batch meets a minimum 98% purity threshold. Our N-Acetylneuraminic Acid is free from residual fermentation by-products and chemical solvents, making it suitable for even the most sensitive applications, such as early-life nutrition.
2. Superior Stability and Solubility
Our crystalline format is highly stable at room temperature and exhibits excellent water solubility. This allows for clear, stable integration into liquid formulations, including pediatric syrups, functional beverages, and “ready-to-drink” (RTD) products without precipitation.
3. Targeted Nutritional Support
As a primary component of sialylated glycans, NANA provides essential structural building blocks for healthy cellular development. It supports the natural integrity of cell-to-cell communication systems and contributes to a balanced nutritional profile in specialized dietetic formulations.
