New form of oily vitamin A

DSM has introduced vitamin A palmitate/ M 1.0 MIU/g (tocopherol) with medium chain triglycerides (MCT) as a carrier instead of peanut oil, thus guaranteeing an absence of genetically modified organisms and eliminating potential allergic reactions to peanut oil.

“This demonstrates the unique leadership position of DSM in developing state-of-the-art forms that fulfil growing market needs and consumer requirements in the different industries,” Mauricio Adade, head of the Human Nutrition & Health area at DSM, said.
