For procurement specialists and R&D professionals in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and fine chemical industries, understanding the precise specifications of raw materials is fundamental to ensuring product quality and consistency. Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate (PLP), the active coenzyme form of Vitamin B6, is no exception. As a leading supplier of this critical biochemical, we emphasize the importance of key specifications that buyers should consider.

The most fundamental specifications for PLP relate to its physical and chemical properties. Typically, PLP is supplied as a white to light yellow crystalline powder. This appearance is a standard indicator of the compound's quality and purity. Equally crucial is the assay, which quantitively measures the amount of active PLP present. A high assay, such as the commonly specified 98%min, ensures that the material is highly pure and suitable for demanding applications, including pharmaceutical synthesis and advanced nutritional formulations. Lower purity could indicate the presence of impurities that might interfere with enzymatic reactions or affect the stability of the final product.

Other important parameters for PLP include its melting point (typically in the range of 138-143°C), water content (usually specified as ≤10.0%), and pH (ranging from 2.6-3.0 for a specific concentration). These properties provide further insight into the chemical integrity and handling characteristics of the substance. For instance, controlling water content is important for the stability and shelf-life of the powder.

As a manufacturer and supplier, we understand the need for reliability. Our 25kg drum packaging is designed for efficient handling and storage, catering to both laboratory research needs and larger industrial production runs. When you decide to buy PLP, partnering with a reputable manufacturer ensures that you receive materials that consistently meet these rigorous specifications. This not only guarantees the performance of your products but also streamlines your procurement process.
