High-purity sialic acid (NANA) is offered. A high-function bioactive ingredient with a wide range of benefits for nutrition, immunity, and anti-aging care.
N-Acetylneuraminic Acid (commonly referred to as NANA) is a functional component found in human breast milk, often called "sialic acid" or "nests acid." It is distributed at the terminal ends of mammalian glycan chains and is known as an important oligosaccharide derivative that plays a role in physiological functions. This product is a high-purity raw material utilized across a wide range of fields, including food, health supplements, cosmetics, and even pet nutrition. In food applications, it is expected to support neurological function, maintain immune function, and contribute to anti-aging care, and is used in infant nutrition products, functional supplements, and brain activity support products. Additionally, as a cosmetic ingredient, it possesses moisturizing, antioxidant, and skin conditioning effects, making it suitable for use in anti-aging cosmetics, serums, and moisturizing creams. In recent years, with the increasing value-added of pet food and pet supplements, its adoption for cognitive function support and immune care purposes has been on the rise. Our company has established a stable supply system for high-purity grades and ensures product safety and lot stability based on a quality management system (certifications such as ISO9001 and FSSC22000). We also have a track record of exporting to international markets and offer NANA in various specifications.
