Description

Function

1. Metabolic Support: D-Biotin acts as a cofactor for carboxylase enzymes, which are involved in the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.
2. Healthy Skin and Hair: It supports the health of skin, hair, and nails by promoting the normal growth and maintenance of these tissues.
3. Gene Regulation: D-Biotin can participate in gene transcription regulation through histone modifications.
4. Immune Function: It helps enhance immune responses and maintains the stability of lysosomal membranes in immune cells。
5. Nerve Health: D-Biotin supports nerve function and can help alleviate symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.

Application

• Nutritional Supplements: Used to address biotin deficiencies and support overall health, particularly for skin, hair, and nails.
• Cosmetics: Added to shampoos, conditioners, and skincare products to promote healthy hair and skin.
• Research: Used in biochemical studies and as a marker in molecular biology experiments, such as nucleic acid probes and protein labeling.
• Medical Treatments: Used to treat conditions like alopecia (hair loss), brittle nails, and certain metabolic disorders.
• Animal Nutrition: Added to animal feed to support growth and metabolic health.

Stability and Storage

• Stability: D-Biotin is stable at room temperature and in neutral or slightly acidic solutions but is less stable in alkaline conditions.
• Storage: It should be stored in a cool, dry place (2-8°C) to maintain its activity.

Safety and Usage

• Usage: D-Biotin is generally safe when used as directed. However, it is important to follow recommended dosages to avoid potential side effects.
• Interactions: High doses of pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5) may interfere with biotin absorption, so it is best to take them separately.
