콜린 클로라이드 is a water-soluble organic compound often grouped with the B-vitamin complex. It serves as an essential nutrient for lipid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and liver function. It is produced by chemical synthesis from ethylene oxide, hydrochloric acid, and trimethylamine, and is available as a liquid solution or dry powder on various carriers.
콜린 클로라이드 is the most widely used choline source in animal feed due to its cost-effectiveness and high bioavailability. It is also used in human food applications, dietary supplements, and as a clay stabilizer in drilling fluids. Commercial grades include 50%, 60%, and 75% concentrations on silica or corn cob carriers for feed use, and high-purity grades for food and pharma.
