Pyridoxal 5-phosphate monohydrate, known as P5P, is the phosphorylated coenzyme form of vitamin B6, supplied by Nustras as a pale yellow-white to light yellow crystalline powder. In the body, dietary forms of vitamin B6 are converted to pyridoxal 5-phosphate, which acts as a cofactor for enzymes of amino acid metabolism.
It is formulated into vitamin B6 and B-complex supplements, multivitamins, tablets, capsules, sublingual and liquid products, sports-nutrition formulations and nutritional premixes, where the coenzyme form of the vitamin is specified.
The material is a pale yellow-white to light yellow crystalline powder, sparingly soluble in water and sensitive to light, so it is stored protected from light and moisture. Identity is confirmed by infrared or ultraviolet spectroscopy and assay by HPLC, both standardised to specification; heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.
Nustras supplies pyridoxal 5-phosphate monohydrate in bulk commercial quantities, in sealed light-protective packaging and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Pyridoxal 5-phosphate is an accepted form of vitamin B6 in major supplement markets; buyers confirm the vitamin B6 contribution, grade and permitted level for their application.
