Description

Cobalt Acetylmethionate is a coordination complex of cobalt with acetylmethionine, identified by CAS NO 105883-52-1. This compound serves as a highly bioavailable source of cobalt, a trace element critical for numerous biological and industrial catalytic processes. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of nutritional supplements, animal feed premixes, and as a specialized catalyst or reagent in fine chemical synthesis.

Application

• Nutritional Supplements: As a bioavailable source of cobalt in vitamin B12 analogs and trace mineral formulations for human and veterinary use.
• Animal Feed Additives: Incorporated into premixes to prevent cobalt deficiency and support rumen microflora in livestock.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of specific cobalt-containing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Acts as a cobalt ion source in cell culture media and enzymatic studies.
• Catalysis: Employed as a precursor or catalyst in specialized organic synthesis and oxidation reactions.
• Cosmetic Ingredients: Potential use in trace element formulations for specialized skincare products (subject to regulatory approval).
