Description
COA-BACKED NUTRITIONAL INGREDIENT
Taurine for B2B Formulation
Taurine is supplied as a single-entity amino acid for B2B nutrition, beverage and supplement formulation. The purchasing definition is the declared assay, the impurity profile and the physical form rather than a botanical identity.

Buyer Decision Guide
Taurine is specified on assay, specific rotation or chiral purity where relevant, and on heavy metal and microbiological limits. Confirm which of these your finished-product specification actually controls before approving a grade.
- Confirm assay basis and analytical method
- Check the salt or free-form identity: Taurine
- Review specific rotation or chiral purity if applicable
- Confirm heavy metal and microbiological limits
How This Grade Differs
Taurine is a single-entity amino acid. It is not interchangeable with the racemic or salt form of the same molecule, and not with a plant extract that merely contains it. Compare assay basis, salt form and impurity profile when substituting.
Compare these related grades before approval:
For a substitution review, compare botanical identity, plant part, assay target, analytical method, physical form and the current offered-batch COA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is appearance checked?
Fine white crystalline powder, compared against a retained sample from the approved batch.
What do you declare for moisture and ash?
Both are released against the limits on the approved specification; the measured result for your lot appears on its COA.
What shelf life and storage conditions apply?
Two years when stored properly, kept sealed in a dry place away from light and heat.
What purity window can you hold batch to batch?
98.5%-101.5% on dried basis, verified by HPLC on every lot.
How recent is the representative batch shown?
The batch referenced is LXNS260131; your shipment is released on its own certificate rather than the representative one.
Can I review the COA before I pay?
Yes. Request the current or representative COA and check identity, method, limits and results before approving the purchase order.
How is the material shipped?
Air and sea freight are both arranged, with the mode chosen against volume, destination and required date. Documents and the HS code are issued with the shipping instructions.
Can you produce to our own specification or packing?
Alternative assay targets, particle size, packing and private-label requirements are reviewed case by case, subject to production feasibility and a revised written specification.
