Pyridoxamine
Description
Pyridoxamine (CAS 85-87-0 ) is one of the three natural forms of vitamin B6, alongside pyridoxine and pyridoxal. It functions as a coenzyme precursor in amino acid metabolism and is recognized for its ability to inhibit the formation of advanced glycation end-products. Procurement interest centers on its use in pharmaceutical synthesis, functional nutrition, and specialty feed formulations. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it serves as an active ingredient in B6-complex formulations and is investigated as a therapeutic agent targeting glycation-related pathways. Functional food and nutraceutical producers incorporate it into premium vitamin B6 supplements where bioavailability differentiation from standard pyridoxine hydrochloride is a commercial priority. In animal nutrition, it is used in precision feed premixes where metabolic support is a target. Agrochemical and veterinary product developers also source it as a reference standard or minor active in specialized nutritional programs. Pyridoxamine is supplied primarily as a white to off-white crystalline powder, with the dihydrochloride salt form being the most prevalent. This salt form is preferred due to its stability and solubility profile. Standard grades include pharmaceutical-grade material meeting USP and Ph. Eur. specifications. Food-grade and research-grade quantities are available depending on application requirements. Contact us for supply of Pyridoxamine Request Quote
