Description

Pantothenic Acid Calcium Salt Monohydrate is the stable, water-soluble calcium salt of the essential B-vitamin, pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5). This compound is critical for the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA), a fundamental cofactor in numerous metabolic pathways for energy production and synthesis. It is a vital ingredient for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and animal feed industries seeking a reliable, high-purity source of Vitamin B5.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Formulations: Used as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in vitamin B-complex injections, tablets, and capsules to treat or prevent pantothenic acid deficiency.
• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: A key component in multivitamin, mineral, and standalone Vitamin B5 supplements, supporting energy metabolism and skin health.
• Animal Nutrition (Feed Premix): An essential vitamin additive in poultry, swine, and aquaculture feed to ensure optimal growth, reproduction, and overall health.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Incorporated into topical creams, lotions, and hair care products for its moisturizing and purported skin barrier repair properties.
• Food & Beverage Fortification: Used to fortify breakfast cereals, health drinks, and infant formula to meet nutritional labeling claims.
• Cell Culture Media: Serves as a defined nutrient component in microbiological media and cell culture formulations for biotechnological research and production.
