Custom Manufacturing, Project Outsourcing, your Trusted Partner from China
NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. specializes in providing high-quality chemical compounds, and understanding the intricacies of their structure and properties is fundamental to our mission. Canthaxanthin, a vital carotenoid pigment, exemplifies this focus.
The canthaxanthin chemical structure is defined by its molecular formula C40H52O2 and a molecular weight of 564.84 g/mol. It is a diketo derivative of beta-carotene, featuring an extended system of conjugated double bonds. This conjugated system is responsible for its vibrant red-orange color and its ability to absorb light energy, which is key to its function as both a pigment and an antioxidant. The molecule consists of a beta-ionone ring at each end, connected by a polyene chain with specific methyl and keto group substitutions. The all-trans isomer is the most biologically active form.
Physically, Canthaxanthin typically appears as a brown powder. Its solubility characteristics are important for formulation; it is generally soluble in organic solvents like chloroform and slightly soluble in oil and methanol, while being insoluble in water. This dictates how it is incorporated into various products, from animal feeds to cosmetic formulations.
Regarding sourcing, Canthaxanthin can be obtained through chemical synthesis or extracted from natural sources, such as certain algae and fungi. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. prioritizes the supply of high-purity Canthaxanthin, ensuring consistent quality for diverse applications. Our manufacturing processes adhere to strict quality control measures to guarantee the integrity of the canthaxanthin chemical structure and its intended properties.
The diverse canthaxanthin uses in food and animal feed, along with its therapeutic applications, underscore the importance of reliable sourcing and synthesis. As an antioxidant, the canthaxanthin antioxidant properties are directly linked to its molecular configuration, allowing it to efficiently scavenge free radicals.
Understanding the nuances of the canthaxanthin chemical structure and its physical properties allows NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. to provide customers with a product that meets precise specifications for their unique applications, whether it's for pigmentation, health benefits, or other industrial uses.
