Each batch is fully documented, and we keep extra supplies on hand for more than 30 days to make sure that 98% of our deliveries happen on time around the world.

What Makes Our Pentadecanoic Acid Powder Different?

It is a saturated odd-chain fatty acid and is known as C15:0 or pentadecylic acid (CAS No. 1002-84-2). It is known to help keep cells healthy and metabolism in balance. This white crystalline powder isn't like regular even-chain saturated fats, and it has health benefits without the calories.

As people move away from traditional sources of whole fat dairy, more and more people are turning to supplements with pure C15:0 to meet the growing need for precise dosing in health products. The bioavailability of our product is stable, and it comes in powder form so that it can be used with a lot of different delivery methods.

Our ingredient gives your products the stability and purity they need as you work on making life-changing ingredients for longevity supplements, metabolic health formulas, or functional food breakthroughs.

Technical Specifications and Quality Parameters

Key Health Benefits and Functional Properties

And your formulae need ingredients based on the best in nutritional research. Our product provides many functional benefits for health applications .

Metabolic Health Support: This unique fatty acid is useful for creating balanced lipid profiles and supporting healthy metabolic function, making it an excellent addition to supplements that focus on metabolic health.

Natural Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Studies indicate that C15:0 may help modulate inflammatory responses at the cellular level, offering a natural way to manage inflammation.

Cell membrane Integrity: The unusual structure of pentadecanoic acid allows it to incorporate into phospholipid bilayers, helping to maintain the strength and resilience of cell membranes, which is key for healthy ageing.

Oxidative Stability: Pentadecanoic Acid Powder form provides enhanced oxidative stability compared to polyunsaturated fatty acids, leading to a longer shelf life and consistent product performance.

Diverse Application Scenarios

Dietary Supplements: Formulate capsules, pills, or powder blends focused on healthy ageing, metabolic wellness, and cellular lifespan. For best nutritional support, typical dose is in the range of 100mg to 200mg daily.

Functional Foods and Beverages: In the case of specialised nutrition items, however the hydrophobic nature suggests emulsification or liposomal encapsulation.

Pharmaceutical Research: Back biological studies on lipid metabolic pathways, anti-inflammatory effects and cellular health mechanisms using our high purity research grade material.

Cosmetic Applications: Used in dermaceutical formulations to rebuild the skin barrier. The membrane stabilising characteristics improve lipid barrier function in anhydrous systems.

Green Chemistry: As an intermediary in the production of organic compounds in sustainable chemical processes, using its functional carbonyl, methyl and methoxy groups.

Our Manufacturing Excellence

Our dedicated production facility combines the latest extraction methods and strict quality processes to offer consistent results. Each batch is fully tested including examination of the fatty acid profile by GC-FID to verify structure and purity.

We ensure tight control of heavy metal concentration with ICP-MS testing, residual solvent screening by Headspace GC and full microbiological limits testing. Monitoring the acid value and peroxide value will ensure that your ingredient is optimally stable for the whole shelf life.

We have safety stock for more than 30 days and have an excellent supply chain management to handle orders fast and on schedule. We offer flexible delivery terms with our global logistics network including EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DAP and DDP.

FAQ

Q: What is the main usage situation of the product?

A: The product is widely used in dietary supplements (capsules, tablets, powders) for metabolic health, healthy ageing and general wellness; functional foods and beverages; pharmaceutical and biomedical research to investigate lipid metabolism, modulation of inflammation and mechanisms of cellular health; nutritional science research; organic production intermediate; and green chemistry applications.

Q: What type of quality testing do you guys have?

A: We monitor the quality at every step of the manufacture. Each batch is tested to meet rigorous standards including assay (by GC, Area, % ≥98.0%), ¹HNMR spectrum structure confirmation, moisture (K.F ≤1.0%), heavy metals (total ≤10ppm, Pb ≤3ppm, As ≤2ppm, Cd ≤2ppm, Hg ≤2 ppm) and microbiological tests (total plate count ≤10,000 cfu/g, yeast & mould ≤1,000 cfu/g, E. Coli and Salmonella negative). We furnish each batch with a COA and other necessary papers.

Q: How do you manufacture your products?

A: It is an important organic chemical intermediate for the product. The molecular framework includes a carbonyl group, a methyl group and a methoxy group, which can participate in various organic chemical reactions such carbonylation, methylation, methoxylation and methoxycarbonylation. It is a regularly used feedstock in organic manufacturing as a green process. We have sufficient stock in hand to ensure uninterrupted manufacture and to avoid any delay in supply. Orders are dispatched immediately on receipt and well within the quoted delivery periods.

Q: Is your product suitable for use in vegan formulations?

A: Yes, the procedure used to make it produces a powder that contains no animal ingredients, and is great for use in vegan and vegetarian supplement lines.

Q: How do I include this powder into water-based products?

A: Because of its hydrophobic nature you will need emulsifiers or liposomal encapsulation technologies to get uniform dispersion in aquatic conditions. Our technical team can advise on formulations.
