3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-5-[(phosphonooxy)methyl]pyridine-4-carbaldehyde monohydrate

Pyridoxal phosphate monohydrate is an active coenzyme form of vitamin B6 that plays a physiological role in the body. It is a key coenzyme factor for various metabolic enzymes and is widely involved in important biochemical reactions such as amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and glycogen breakdown in the human body. It is a commonly used stable active B6 raw material in medicine, nutritional supplementation, and biochemical research.

Pyroxal phosphate monohydrate functions as an active cofactor, and the aldehyde group in its molecular structure can form Schiff bases with lysine residues of various enzyme proteins in the body. It then acts as a cofactor and binds with corresponding enzyme proteins to form a whole enzyme. Through reversible electron transfer and proton transfer, it mediates key catalytic reactions such as transamination, decarboxylation, and racemization, participating in biochemical processes such as amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, heme production, and homocysteine degradation. It is an active coenzyme that maintains material metabolism, nerve conduction, and normal physiology in the body.

Pyridoxal phosphate monohydrate naturally exists in the bodies of animals, plants, and microorganisms, and is the active coenzyme form of vitamin B6. It can be extracted in trace amounts from foods such as liver, fish, meat, beans, and yeast; Industrial production uses pyridoxine hydrochloride as raw material, which is chemically oxidized, phosphorylated and hydrolyzed, or phosphorylated by biological enzymes, and then purified by resin and crystallized  to obtain stable monohydrate products.Our PLP is manufactured via enzymatic process.

Animal liver, fish, nuts, and legumes may contain small amounts of pyridoxal phosphate.

As a naturally occurring active form of vitamin B6 coenzyme in the body, pyridoxal phosphate monohydrate has high safety and good tolerance. It has almost no significant toxic side effects when used within the recommended dosage range. Mild gastrointestinal reflux of pyridoxal phosphate monohydrate can be quickly relieved when ingested for a long time or in excess. It is a mild and safe nutritional supplement.
