Description

Phospholipids CAS NO 123465-35-0 are a class of amphipathic lipids that form the fundamental structural components of all cell membranes. Their unique dual-nature structure, featuring both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions, makes them indispensable for creating stable emulsions, liposomes, and other delivery systems. These versatile biomolecules are critical for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food & beverage, and cosmetic industries seeking to enhance product bioavailability, stability, and functionality.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipients & Drug Delivery: As key components in liposomal formulations for targeted drug delivery, improving the solubility and efficacy of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Used in the encapsulation of sensitive nutrients (e.g., ω-3s, vitamins) and as emulsifiers in liquid supplement formulations to improve stability and absorption.
• Food & Beverage Industry: Function as natural emulsifiers and stabilizers in products like margarine, chocolate, infant formula, and nutritional drinks to ensure consistent texture and shelf life.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Act as skin-identical lipids in creams, lotions, and serums to restore the skin barrier, improve moisturization, and stabilize active ingredients.
• Research & Diagnostic Reagents: Serve as essential raw materials for producing diagnostic kits, cell culture media supplements, and research tools in biochemistry and molecular biology.
• Industrial Applications: Utilized as dispersants, release agents, and lubricants in various technical processes.

Quality Control

Our phospholipids are produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure it meets stringent specifications for purity, composition, and performance. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing parameters such as phospholipid content, fatty acid profile, peroxide value, and residual solvents. Production can adhere to relevant standards including cGMP, ISO, and food-grade (FCC) guidelines as required.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and hydrolysis. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a cool, dry place and opened under controlled, low-humidity conditions to prevent moisture uptake.
