General description

Retinyl acetate, a natural preform of vitamin A, is classified as generally recognized as safe in the amounts used to fortify foods with vitamin A and is especially recommended for maternal supplementation during pregnancy.

Application

Retinyl acetate solution may be used as a certified reference material (CRM) for the determination of the analyte in biological samples, dairy foods and pharmaceutical formulations by chromatography techniques.
This certified solution standard is suitable for use as an internal standard in chromatographic or MS-based methods in clinical testing applications such as assessment of vitamin A deficiency or in food and nutrition testing applications of vitamin A supplements and fortified foods.
