Description

Spiramycin Adipate is a macrolide antibiotic salt formed from spiramycin and adipic acid, offering enhanced stability and handling properties. This compound is valued for its broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, particularly against Gram-positive bacteria and certain intracellular pathogens. It is a critical active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for the formulation of veterinary and, in some regions, human medicinal products. Industries requiring this material include pharmaceutical manufacturing, veterinary medicine, and advanced research and development.

Application

• Primary Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) in veterinary antibiotic formulations.
• Key intermediate in the synthesis of specialized macrolide antibiotic derivatives.
• Raw material for the production of medicated feed additives for livestock.
• Research and development of novel antibacterial therapies and drug delivery systems.
• Reference standard in analytical laboratories for quality control and method validation.
• Component in topical preparations for the treatment of bacterial infections in animals.

Quality Control

Our Spiramycin Adipate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment. We can support compliance with various pharmacopoeial standards, including EP and other relevant specifications, upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 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. Store away from incompatible materials.
