PlantD™ cholecalciferol is vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) obtained from a plant-derived, non-animal source, in contrast to conventional cholecalciferol made from lanolin. Nustras supplies it as a concentrated oil or as a dry, cold-water-dispersible powder for vegan and vegetarian formulations.
PlantD™ cholecalciferol is formulated into vitamin D supplements in softgel, capsule, tablet, gummy and drop form, into multivitamin and vitamin-mineral premixes, and into fortified plant-based milks, beverages and foods.
The oil grade is a clear to slightly yellow oily liquid and the powder grade is a white to yellowish free-flowing powder. Vitamin D3 potency is standardised to specification and determined by HPLC; identity is confirmed by HPLC retention against a reference, and oxidation (peroxide value), loss on drying, heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis. CAS 67-97-0, molecular formula C27H44O, molecular weight 384.6.
Nustras supplies PlantD™ cholecalciferol in bulk commercial quantities, in sealed, light-protected packaging and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Cholecalciferol is a permitted vitamin D source for supplements and fortified foods in major markets; buyers confirm the potency, source statement and permitted level for their application.
