| General description: | Isopropyl palmitate is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and palmitic acid, commonly used as a solvent and emulsifier in biologics. It enhances the solubility and delivery of lipophilic compounds, ensuring their stability and bioavailability in pharmaceutical formulations. In biologics, isopropyl palmitate contributes to the formulation of injectable and topical products by improving their ability to penetrate biological barriers. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) provides quality standards for biologics to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality throughout the manufacturing process. These standards assist manufacturers in adhering to regulatory requirements and help safeguard public health by reducing risks associated with biologics. |
