VitiPure L 20 Superior

VitiPure® L 20 Superior is a non-ionic solubilizer and emulsifying agent for human and veterinary pharmaceutical markets. It is manufactured by ethoxylating sorbitan mono-Laurate in a molar ratio of 1:20. VitiPure® L 20 Superior is then purified with a patented process to reduce residual impurities yielding a transparent almost colorless oily liquid. Typically used in sensitive formulations where final formulations need to be colorless, or the API is sensitive to residual impurities. And, where the end formulation needs to have low microbial load with low endotoxins.

Benefits
  • Lower residual impurities compared with standard grade VitiPure® L 20
  • Nearly colorless solubilizer, and gives no color shade to final formulation
  • Improves stability of finished formulation with sensitive API compared to standard grade of VitiPure® L 20
  • Steel packaging with nitrogen purging assures lower levels of peroxides during storage of product
  • Vegetable sourced (no animal sources)
  • Low endotoxin grade suitable for sensitive applications
  • Control of TAMC, TYMC, objectionable bacteria
  • Control of elemental impurities as per ICH Q3D according, and to the sensitive applications limits
