NEW YORK - Aug 31/04 - SNS -- Cargill Health & Food Technologies and China's Wuhan Alking Bioengineering Co. Ltd. have entered a joint venture agreement to market arachidonic acid (ARA) in China to the country's infant formula business.
ARA is an essential fatty acid that, in conjunction with DHA, an omega-3 essential fatty acid, has long been recognized as important in infant nutrition, including promoting the growth of organs and tissues.
Found naturally in breast milk, ARA and DHA are thought to support the development of infants’ brains and eyes. The nutrients are becoming an important ingredient in infant formula globally.
The joint venture is expected to be up and operating within the next 30 to 120 days.
