Thiamine nitrate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Thiamine nitrate is the thiamine salt formed from one mole of thiamine base and one mole of nitric acid. It occurs as an anhydrous crystalline solid of low hygroscopicity. Thiamin (vitamin B1) is a member of the vitamin B complex. Attributing to low hydroscopicity, thiamine nitrate works as a more stable form of thiamine in pharmaceutical preparations.
Thiamine nitrate is preferred to be used for the preparation of multivitamins and as a food fortification in dry blends and dry products such as in wheat flour.

Description

Thiamine is a water-soluble vitamin with antioxidant, neuroprotective, and anxiolytic properties. It inhibits lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes and free radical oxidation of oleic acid in vitro when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 100 μM. In vivo, thiamine (100 mg/kg) reduces hepatic levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lipid peroxidation, and protein damage in a rat model of acute ethanol intoxication. It reverses predator stress-induced suppression of hippocampal neurogenesis and decreases the latency of step-down from a platform, indicating anxiolytic-like activity in mice. Thiamine (8.5 mg/100 g food) reduces neurodegeneration and increases survival in Slc19a3^-/- mice, a model of thiamine metabolism dysfunction syndrome-2 (THMD-2).

Chemical Properties

White or almost white, crystalline powder or small, colourless crystals.

Uses

Thiamine Nitrate is an orally administered vitamin. Thiamine is a essential nutrient required for carbohydrate metabolism and is involved in nerve function.

Uses

Vitamin B1.

benefits

Some of the critical uses and benefits of Vitamin B1 Mononitrate(Thiamine nitrate) include:
Supports Energy production: Thiamine nitrate is involved in converting food into energy, particularly in the metabolism of carbohydrates.
Helps Nervous system: Thiamine nitrate is essential for proper nervous system function and is involved in transmitting nerve impulses.
Improves Cardiovascular health: Thiamine nitrate is important for maintaining healthy heart function, and may help to reduce the risk of heart disease.
Supports Appetite regulation: Vitamin B1 mononitrate is involved in regulating appetite and may help to reduce the risk of overeating and weight gain.
Improves Eye health: Thiamine nitrate is involved in maintaining healthy eye function, and may help to reduce the risk of certain eye disorders.

General Description

Certified pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. Thiamine Nitrate is a mononitrate salt of thiamine. It is synthesized from thiamine hydrochloride following a sequence of steps. Thiamine Nitrate is used as a dietary supplement in crackers, eggs substitute and enriched flour.

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous and intraperitoneal routes. A powerful oxidizer. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fums of SOx, and NOx. See also NITRATES.
