Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Lipoic acid is a vitamin-like compound found in a slightly yellow crystalline powder form. It can be synthetically produced in laboratories for medical use, but is found naturally in abundance in foods such as yeast, liver, kidney, broccoli, spinach and potatoes.
Lipoic Acid can be divided into α- Lipoic Acid (Alpha Lipoic Acid), R- Lipoic Acid and S- Lipoic Acid. Common commercially available lipoic acid are alpha lipoic acid, so in the report, the volume of lipoic acid is calculated by alpha lipoic acid.
