What is Vitamin B6 CAS 8059-24-3?

Vitamin B6 is a water-soluble B vitamin that participates in amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis and red blood cell formation. Commercial products listed under CAS 8059-24-3 are commonly supplied as pyridoxine hydrochloride.

Which form of Vitamin B6 is supplied under this product?

This page describes pyridoxine hydrochloride, also called pyridoxine HCl or PN HCl. It is a white or off-white crystalline powder widely used in food fortification, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, animal feed and premixes.

How stable is Pyridoxine Hydrochloride in premixes?

Pyridoxine hydrochloride is relatively stable to heat and atmospheric oxygen but is sensitive to light, moisture and certain reducing or oxidizing conditions. Store it in closed, light-protected containers and avoid prolonged contact with moisture.

What specifications should be checked before ordering Vitamin B6?

Confirm assay, appearance, identity, loss on drying, residue on ignition, heavy metals and microbial limits. Specify the required grade and compendial standard, such as food, feed or pharmaceutical grade.

How should Vitamin B6 be stored and handled?

Store in tightly closed, light-protected containers in a cool, dry area away from moisture and incompatible materials. Use dust-control measures and appropriate PPE when handling bulk powder.

Vitamin B6 CAS 8059-24-3

Vitamin B6 (CAS 8059-24-3), commercially supplied primarily as Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, is a water-soluble vitamin functioning as a vital coenzyme in animal feed additives and food fortification. This white crystalline powder, technically identified as 5-hydroxy-6-methyl-3,4-pyridinedimethanol hydrochloride, acts as a crucial cofactor in amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and red blood cell formation. We provide bulk supply of this feed and food grade ingredient with competitive factory pricing to support the livestock and nutritional supplement industries. Our manufacturing process ensures high stability and flowability, making MSDS, TDS, COA available alongside customized specifications to meet BP/USP/EP or Feed Grade standards.
