Description

Acetyl Vitamin B12 is a chemically modified, stabilized form of cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) designed for enhanced stability and bioavailability in advanced formulations. This high-purity derivative is critical for applications requiring precise dosing and long-term shelf-life, offering superior performance over standard B12 forms. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and advanced research sectors for producing injectable solutions, high-potency dietary supplements, and specialized cell culture media.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Key starting material for the synthesis of advanced parenteral (injectable) Vitamin B12 formulations and prescription medications.
• High-Potency Nutraceuticals: Active ingredient in premium dietary supplements, capsules, and sublingual tablets where enhanced stability and bioavailability are required.
• Cell Culture & Microbiology: Essential growth factor in specialized cell culture media, fermentation processes, and microbiological assays.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Used in vitamin supplements and therapeutic treatments for livestock and companion animals.
• Cosmetic & Dermatological Actives: Incorporated into advanced skincare formulations for its purported revitalizing and protective properties.
• Biochemical Research: Standard and reagent in enzymatic studies, metabolic pathway analysis, and biochemical research.

Quality Control

Our Acetyl Vitamin B12 is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, detailing parameters such as assay, purity by HPLC, and identification. We can support compliance with relevant pharmacopeial standards (e.g., USP, EP) upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment and opened under conditions of low humidity to prevent degradation.
