D-CALCIUM PANTOTHENATE
Introduce briefly
Calcium pantothenate is a kind of B vitamin and one of the essential nutrients for the normal growth of organisms. Calcium pantothenate exists in three forms because it has chiral carbon atoms: D L-body (hybrate), D-body (right-body) and L-body (left body). Only D-calcium pantothenate has biological activity, with a white or slightly yellow needle-shaped crystal or powder in appearance, and a melting point of 195~196 ℃ (decomposition), Soluble in water, methanol, glycerine, slightly soluble in ethanol and acetone, with hygroscopicity, slightly sweet, but slightly bitter. In terms of chemical stability, it is the most stable in aqueous solutions with a pH between 5 and 7. It is more stable in air and sunlight, and less stable in acids and alkalis.Introduce briefly Calcium pantothenate is a kind of B vitamin and one of the essential nutrients for the normal growth of organisms.
