Choline bitartrate丨CAS 87-67-2 is a quaternary ammonium salt formed from choline, an essential nutrient, and tartaric acid, a naturally occurring organic acid. It is commonly used as a dietary supplement and nutrient additive in health, food, and pharmaceutical products.

 

Applications

 

1. Dietary Supplement / Nutraceutical

Primary use: A source of choline, which is crucial for:

Brain development and function

Liver health (prevents fat accumulation in the liver)

Cell membrane synthesis (as a component of phosphatidylcholine)

Neurotransmitter synthesis (acetylcholine)

Often included in:

Prenatal vitamins

Sports nutrition products

Cognitive enhancement supplements (nootropics)

2. Food and Beverage Fortification

Added to functional foods and beverages as a nutritional enhancer.

May be included in infant formulas or meal replacements to provide choline for cognitive development and metabolism.

3. Pharmaceutical and Medical Use

Used as a choline donor in clinical settings, especially in formulations intended to:

Treat choline deficiency

Support neurodegenerative conditions

Investigated for roles in:

Fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

Alzheimer's disease

Cognitive impairment

4. Animal Nutrition

Included in animal feed additives, especially for poultry and swine, to:

Support growth and development

Prevent fatty liver syndrome

Enhance feed efficiency

 

Benefits

 

Highly bioavailable and well-absorbed form of choline.

Tartaric acid component helps with stability and solubility.

Supports:

Cognitive function and memory

Lipid metabolism

Cardiovascular health

May contribute to methylation processes by aiding homocysteine conversion (via betaine pathway).

 

Summary

 

Choline bitartrate丨CAS 87-67-2 is a bioavailable and stable choline salt commonly used in health supplements, fortified foods, and clinical nutrition. It plays essential roles in brain function, liver health, and lipid metabolism, making it valuable in both human and animal dietary products. Its favorable safety profile and ease of formulation support its widespread use across nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries.
