Potassium lactate is the potassium salt of lactic acid (CAS 996-31-6; C3H5KO3, MW 128.17), an organic-acid salt often supplied as a concentrated aqueous solution as well as a solid. It delivers about 30% elemental potassium, among the mid-to-lower-load organic salts, above the gluconate and orotate but below the citrate. It is very soluble and hygroscopic, and despite the name the lactic acid is fermentation-derived rather than milk-derived, so it carries no dairy allergen. It is recognised as food additive E326. We manufacture it in liquids, powders and tablets.
