Description
Technical & Manufacturing Relevance:
Vitamin A is essential for normal vision (especially night vision), immune function, cellular differentiation, and maintenance of skin and epithelial tissues. It plays a critical role in growth, reproduction, and antioxidant defense. In manufacturing, Vitamin A is widely used in multivitamins, pediatric nutrition, eye health products, skin & beauty formulations, and clinical nutrition. Due to its fat-soluble and oxidation-sensitive nature, it is commonly supplied as oil solutions, beadlets, spray-dried powders, or microencapsulated forms to improve stability, uniformity, and bioavailability.
Applicable Dosage Forms:
Softgel capsules (oil-based)
Tablets (with beadlets or carriers)
Hard gelatin & HPMC capsules
Oral drops & liquid formulations
