Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Human studies have shown that the calcium in L-threonate calcium is absorbed. In an open-label, single-dose and multiple-dose study, a single oral dose of 2025 mg of calcium threonate in healthy adult Chinese subjects resulted in a peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of 32.3 mg/L. The time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) was approximately 2 hours. Threonate has been detected in human urine. In a pharmacokinetic study of 200 mg/kg body weight calcium threonate in rats, approximately 30% of the calcium was excreted in the urine, approximately 40% in the feces, approximately 10-20% remained in the blood and bones, and approximately 10% was stored in organs 24 hours after administration. The apparent total volume of distribution after a single oral dose of 2025 mg calcium threonate in healthy adult Chinese subjects was approximately 53.6 L. The apparent total clearance after a single oral dose of 2025 mg calcium threonate in healthy adult Chinese subjects was approximately 14.5 L/h. Biological Half-Life The terminal elimination half-life of a single oral dose of 2025 mg calcium threonate in healthy adult Chinese subjects is approximately 2.7 hours. |

| Additional Infomation |
L-Threonate calcium salt is an L-α-D-Hepp-(1→7)-L-α-D-Hepp-(1→3)-L-α-D-Hepp-(1→5)-α-Kdo. Calcium threonate is the calcium salt of threonate acid, a novel drug used to treat osteoporosis and as a calcium supplement. It is found in dietary supplements as a source of L-threonate acid for the treatment of calcium deficiency and prevention of osteoporosis. The most common form is L-threonate calcium, or (2R,3S)-2,3,4-trihydroxybutyrate calcium. L-Threonate acid is an active metabolite of vitamin C and promotes its absorption. Its therapeutic efficacy has been studied and investigated because it is speculated that calcium threonate may participate in the mineralization process through its positive effect on vitamin C.
Drug Indications Currently, there are no approved therapeutic indications. Mechanism of Action After L-threonine dissociates into calcium and L-threonine, it significantly promotes the absorption of vitamin C and prolongs the retention time of vitamin C in human T lymphoma cells. Vitamin C is a marker of osteoblast formation and has been shown to stimulate the production of procollagen and enhance collagen synthesis. L-threonine, by promoting vitamin C absorption, affects the mineralization process as a metabolite. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
