Description of Liposomal Iron
Liposomal iron isn’t a single, well-defined compound but rather a delivery system for iron. It encapsulates iron molecules within microscopic spheres made of phospholipids, the same fatty molecules that form cell membranes. These spheres, called liposomes, are typically colorless to slightly yellow and range in size from 30-100 nanometers (billionths of a meter). Since liposomes are microscopic, liposomal iron appears as a fine powder or suspension in a liquid, depending on the formulation. It’s usually odorless.
A crucial point to consider is liposomal iron’s hygroscopicity. Liposomes themselves can attract moisture, so proper storage in a sealed container is essential to prevent clumping or degradation. The texture of liposomal iron powder will vary depending on the specific product, ranging from smooth and flour-like to slightly gritty. Liquid formulations will have a smooth, syrupy consistency. At WBCIL, we prioritize quality.
Our liposomal iron undergoes rigorous testing to guarantee an encapsulation efficiency exceeding 85%. As a leading API manufacturer, WBCIL prioritizes strict CGMP and ISO quality control measures throughout the production process. The prolonged experience from 1962 ensures consistent potency, purity, and safety in every dose of WBCIL’s liposomal products.
Application of Liposomal Iron
Pharmaceutical Industry
- Iron Supplementation: Used in oral iron supplements to treat iron deficiency anemia, offering improved gastrointestinal tolerance and better absorption compared to traditional iron supplements.
- Chronic Conditions: Beneficial for patients with chronic kidney disease, inflammatory bowel disease, or those undergoing bariatric surgery, as it helps maintain adequate iron levels with fewer side effects.
- Pregnancy: Recommended for pregnant women to prevent and treat iron deficiency anemia, providing a gentler alternative to traditional iron supplements.
Food and Beverage Industry
Fortification: Added to food and beverage products to enhance their iron content, especially in products targeted at populations prone to iron deficiency, such as children and pregnant women.
Sports Nutrition
Athlete Supplements: Included in supplements for athletes to support optimal iron levels, which are crucial for maintaining endurance and overall performance.
Pediatrics
Child Supplements: Used in pediatric formulations to treat iron deficiency anemia in children, providing a more palatable and less irritating option for young patients.
Veterinary Medicine
