Almond Bitter Oil
Almond Bitter Oil, derived from the kernels of bitter almonds (Prunus amygdalus var. amara), is an essential oil known for its sharp, nutty, and marzipan-like aroma. This oil is produced through steam distillation of crushed bitter almond kernels and contains a naturally occurring compound called benzaldehyde, which gives it its characteristic scent. In purified form (free of hydrogen cyanide), bitter almond oil is used in fragrance, flavoring, and pharmaceutical applications.
Due to its potent aroma and biochemical properties, it is widely used in perfumery, baked goods flavoring (in controlled quantities), aromatherapy, and traditional topical remedies. It is important to distinguish between natural bitter almond oil, which must be detoxified, and synthetic benzaldehyde, which is commonly used as a substitute in commercial formulations.
Ammonia Acetate
Ammonia Acetate is a white crystalline solid or granular powder with a mild ammoniacal odor. It is a salt formed from ammonia and acetic acid, widely used in laboratories, industrial processes, and some niche food and pharmaceutical applications. Ammonium Acetate is highly soluble in water and often utilized as a buffer solution in biochemical and analytical chemistry due to its ability to maintain pH. It also serves as a precursor in the synthesis of various chemicals and acts as a neutralizing agent in several industrial applications.
Cetyl Alcohol Flakes
Cetyl Alcohol Flakes is a high-purity fatty alcohol derived mainly from natural sources such as palm oil and coconut oil. Presented as white to off-white waxy flakes, this product contains at least 98% pure cetyl alcohol, ensuring consistent performance and quality. It is valued for its excellent emollient, thickening, and emulsifying properties and is widely used in personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial formulations. The flake form facilitates easy handling, melting, and dosing in manufacturing processes. Cetyl Alcohol 98% Flakes contributes to the texture, stability, and moisturizing properties of various formulations, providing a non-greasy, smooth finish.
Dextrose Anhydrous BP Injectable
Dextrose Anhydrous BP Injectable is a sterile, highly purified crystalline form of glucose that serves as a critical energy source in intravenous therapy. It is widely used in parenteral nutrition, rehydration, and hypoglycemia management. The anhydrous form contains no water, allowing precise control of concentration in injectable solutions. Meeting British Pharmacopoeia (BP) standards, it ensures pharmaceutical-grade purity and sterility, suitable for direct injection or as a component in compounded IV fluids. It provides readily available carbohydrates metabolized to supply energy, regulate osmolarity, and maintain fluid-electrolyte balance in clinical care.
Dill Seed Oil Terpeneless
Dill Seed Oil Terpeneless is a refined essential oil obtained by steam distillation of the seeds of Anethum graveolens, with terpenes removed to reduce its sharpness and volatility. It has a mild, sweet, herbaceous aroma with faint spicy undertones. This oil is prized for its improved stability, softer fragrance profile, and enhanced suitability in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and cleaning applications. Traditionally used for digestive support and antimicrobial properties, dill seed oil terpeneless is incorporated in natural personal care products, aromatherapy, and household formulations.
Methlyl Paraben Sodium BP
Methlyl Paraben Sodium BP is the sodium salt form of methyl paraben, a widely used preservative in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food products. It exhibits excellent antimicrobial properties, particularly against molds, yeasts, and some bacteria, extending the shelf life and safety of formulations. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder, highly soluble in water, and stable across a range of pH levels.
Sodium Nitrite
Sodium Nitrite is an inorganic white to slightly yellowish crystalline powder with the chemical formula NaNO₂. This versatile chemical serves as a powerful reducing agent, corrosion inhibitor, and food preservative, widely used in meat curing, pharmaceutical synthesis, and industrial applications. Its oxidative properties make it valuable for dye manufacturing and rubber processing while requiring careful handling due to its toxicity.
Sodium Starch Glycolate
Sodium Starch Glycolate (SSG) is a white to off-white, odorless, tasteless powder derived from potato or maize starch and chemically modified with carboxymethylation and cross-linking. It has the chemical formula (C₆H₁₀O₅)nNa and is widely used in solid dosage pharmaceutical formulations as a superdisintegrant. This 25kg grade is supplied in high-purity pharmaceutical and food-grade quality, offering excellent swelling capacity and rapid disintegration properties even at low concentrations.
