Description

clear yellow to brownish viscous liquid


Clear, viscous, pale yellowish or orange oil which oxidises and darkens on exposure to air or light|Solid


Delta-tocopherol is a tocopherol in which the chroman-6-ol core is substituted by a methyl group at position 8. It is found particularly in maize (corn) oil and soya bean (soybean) oils. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a food antioxidant. It is a vitamin E and a tocopherol.|Delta-Tocopherol is the orally bioavailable delta form of the naturally-occurring fat-soluble vitamin E, mostly found in soybean and corn oils, with potential antioxidant activity. Although the exact mechanism of action of this tocopherol has yet to be fully identified, delta-tocopherol appears to have the ability to scavenge free radicals, thereby protecting cells against oxidative damage.


δ-Tocopherol, a homolog of vitamin E, is a phytochemical with potent antioxidant activity. It has been investigated for its potential medical, biological, and physio-chemical applications.

D-DELTA-TOCOPHEROL Use and Manufacturing

Uses

One of the naturally occurring forms of Vitamin E. Isolated from soybean oil.


(+)-δ-Tocopherol has been used as a reference material for its extraction from oil using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It has also been used as a standard to quantify δ-tocopherol in soybean using reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography.
