Description

Cycotiamine is a synthetic thiamine (vitamin B1) derivative, specifically the O,S-diacetyl thiamine disulfide. This compound is valued for its enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to thiamine hydrochloride, making it a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of high-potency nutritional and pharmaceutical products. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and animal feed industries for formulating advanced vitamin supplements and therapeutic preparations.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: A key building block in the synthesis of advanced thiamine-based drugs and injectable formulations.
• Nutraceutical Manufacturing: Used in the production of high-potency vitamin B1 supplements, multivitamin complexes, and functional foods.
• Animal Nutrition: Incorporated into premixes and feed additives for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture to prevent thiamine deficiency and support metabolic health.
• Research & Development: Serves as a reference standard and a critical reagent in biochemical and pharmacological research studies.
• Cosmetic Applications: Utilized in specialized skincare formulations for its potential role in cellular energy metabolism.

Quality Control

Our Cycotiamine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, to ensure it meets high-grade standards suitable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place 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.
