Collection: Vitamin Derivatives
Vitamin Derivatives — covers vitamin derivative compounds, mainly structural modifications of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (tocopherols), as well as retinoid analogs that mimic the vitamin A scaffold. Chemical modifications such as esterification or the addition of aromatic groups change solubility and stability compared with the natural vitamin forms.
Vitamin Derivatives are widely used in nutrition and cell biology research to study retinoid receptor signaling pathways and the antioxidant activity of tocopherol derivatives. Pharmacology and active ingredient researchers use analogs such as TTNPB and bexarotene as receptor ligands in cell differentiation studies, while tocopherol esters are used in research formulations that require fat-soluble compounds with better stability.
Example products in this collection: TCI A0520 89-65-6 D-Araboascorbic Acid, TCI C0377 41468-25-1 Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate Monohydrate, TCI T3842 71441-28-6 TTNPB, TCI C2235 1492-18-8 Calcium Folinate, TCI T3118 9002-96-4 alpha-Tocopherol Polyethylene Glycol Succinate, TCI C3537 63283-36-3 Calcifediol Monohydrate, TCI T3108 118292-40-3 Tazarotene, TCI D0053 148-51-6 4-Deoxypyridoxine Hydrochloride.
Pay attention to the stereochemical form (for example D or L isomers) and the type of stabilizing group such as succinate or polyethylene glycol, as both affect the solubility, stability, and storage of vitamin derivative compounds. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
