Description

Butaphosphone is an organophosphorus compound that serves as a vital source of bioavailable phosphorus and energy for metabolic processes. This compound is valued for its role in supporting cellular energy transfer and membrane integrity, making it a key ingredient in specialized formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the veterinary pharmaceutical and animal nutrition sectors for metabolic stimulant and tonic applications.

Application

• Veterinary Injectable Solutions: As a key active component in metabolic stimulants and tonics for livestock and poultry.
• Animal Feed Additives: Incorporated into premixes and supplements to enhance phosphorus bioavailability and support energy metabolism.
• Aquaculture Health Management: Used in formulations aimed at improving stress resistance and overall vitality in farmed fish and shrimp.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a synthetic building block for more complex organophosphorus active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Metabolic Correctors: Formulated into products designed to correct phosphorus deficiencies and support recovery in animals.

Quality Control

Our Butaphosphone is manufactured under a GMP-compliant quality management system, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, residual solvents, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
