Description
Delta-carotene (CAS 472-92-4 ) is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment found in plant sources, functioning as a precursor to vitamin A and a source of orange-yellow coloration in food and feed applications. It belongs to the broader carotene family and is evaluated for use across nutrition, agriculture, and cosmetic formulation contexts. In animal feed, delta-carotene contributes to yolk and skin pigmentation in poultry. It also supports provitamin A nutrition in livestock diets. Food manufacturers incorporate carotenoid blends into beverages, dairy analogs, and fat-based products where natural coloration and antioxidant stabilization are required. In personal care, it is used in skin-conditioning formulations where carotenoid-derived color and antioxidant activity support product positioning in natural and clean-label lines for various consumer markets. Agricultural supplement programs targeting provitamin A enrichment in animal nutrition represent a further procurement channel. Delta-carotene is typically available as a crystalline powder or in oil-suspension forms. Emulsified forms are also suited to different formulation matrices. Supply is generally sourced as part of mixed natural carotene extracts rather than as an isolated single-isomer material for industrial use. Buyers should confirm these details at the specification stage. Technical and food-grade designations apply depending on the intended end use and regional regulatory requirements for the specific application. Contact us for supply of Delta-carotene Request Quote
