Description
Technical & Manufacturing Relevance:
Used as an economical inorganic source of copper in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, veterinary, and food applications
Copper is essential for iron metabolism, hemoglobin synthesis, antioxidant enzymes (Cu/Zn-SOD), connective tissue formation, pigmentation, and immune function
Highly water-soluble, enabling accurate micro-dosing and uniform distribution in premixes and solutions
Often used as a processing intermediate for manufacturing organic copper salts (gluconate, citrate, lysine complexes)
More reactive and potentially irritating than organic copper forms; formulation control is essential
Requires precise dosing due to copper’s narrow therapeutic window
Applicable Dosage Forms:
Tablets and capsules (low-dose formulations)
Powders and trace-mineral premixes
Oral liquids and drops (highly diluted)
Veterinary and specialty nutrition products (where permitted)
Industrial pharmaceutical intermediates
Pharmacopoeial / Quality Notes:
Available in grades compliant or aligned with USP / EP / BP / IP / FCC (trace mineral specifications)
Bright blue crystalline powder or crystals (pentahydrate)
Freely soluble in water; practically insoluble in alcohol
Strict limits for lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and residual acids
Manufactured in GMP-certified facilities with batch-wise traceability and validated analytical testing (ICP-MS / AAS)
Animal-Origin Declaration:
100% non-animal origin
Free from BSE/TSE, GMO, and allergen risks
Manufacturing Support:
Supplied with COA, SDS/MSDS, TDS, specification sheet, assay method, and origin declaration
Technical support for copper equivalence calculations, formulation safety, and regulatory compliance
Documentation support available for global resale, export, and international distribution
Suitable for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and veterinary manufacturing worldwide, strictly within country-specific copper RDA and UL limits
Important Note:
Cupric sulphate is a highly reactive inorganic copper source. Its use requires validated micro-dosing controls and strict adherence to international copper intake regulations to ensure safety and regulatory acceptance in global healthcare markets.
