Description

Glycofurol is a versatile pharmaceutical-grade solvent and excipient, widely recognized for its excellent solubilizing properties and biocompatibility. Its primary value lies in its ability to dissolve poorly water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients, thereby enhancing their bioavailability and formulation stability. This makes it an essential component for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and advanced drug delivery sectors seeking reliable and effective formulation solutions.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Solvent: Used as a primary or co-solvent in injectable formulations, including parenteral solutions and intramuscular depots.
• Drug Delivery Systems: A key excipient in the development of micellar systems, nanoemulsions, and lipid-based formulations to improve drug solubility and absorption.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Employed as a penetration enhancer and solvent in topical creams, lotions, and transdermal patches.
• Veterinary Medicine: Utilized in formulating injectable and topical veterinary products for enhanced drug delivery.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a reaction medium or solvent in organic synthesis and purification processes for sensitive compounds.

Quality Control

Our Glycofurol is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of pharmaceutical applications. We provide material that conforms to relevant pharmacopeial standards (e.g., USP/NF, EP). Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality.
