Description

Pyridoxine Tripalmitate is a lipid-soluble ester derivative of Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) and palmitic acid. This chemical form offers enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to its water-soluble counterparts, making it a valuable ingredient for advanced formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, cosmetic, and specialty chemical industries for its functional properties.

Application

• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Used as a stable, fat-soluble source of Vitamin B6 in oil-based supplement formulations, softgel capsules, and functional foods.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Incorporated into skincare products (creams, serums) for its potential skin-conditioning and vitamin-delivery properties.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key intermediate or pro-drug in the synthesis of specialized pharmaceutical compounds requiring lipid-soluble vitamin activity.
• Animal Nutrition: Utilized in premium feed premixes and veterinary products to provide a stable form of Vitamin B6.
• Research & Development: Employed in biochemical research as a model compound for studying lipid-soluble vitamin esters and their metabolism.
• Food Fortification: Potential use in fortifying fat-based food matrices where standard pyridoxine hydrochloride is less stable or compatible.

Quality Control

Our Pyridoxine Tripalmitate is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. While specific grades (e.g., Cosmetic, Nutraceutical) are available, all products are supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, related substances, and heavy metals. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to ensure reliable supply for sensitive applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from excessive heat and moisture. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere to maintain optimal stability.
