Product Information

• Name: Cocarboxylase hydrochloride
• Synonyms: Thiamine trihydrogen pyrophosphate monohydrochloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cocarboxylase hydrochloride is a coenzyme derivative, which is primarily sourced from thiamine (vitamin B1). It plays a crucial role in biochemical processes by facilitating the enzymatic decarboxylation of alpha-keto acids within the cellular environment. This action is fundamental in energy production as it aids in the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, subsequently entering the citric acid cycle. Cocarboxylase hydrochloride’s involvement in carbohydrate metabolism is especially vital for tissues with high metabolic rates, such as the heart and brain.
