Biological Activity
| Description | Retinyl (Vitamin A) Palmitate is a more stable, synthetic version of the essential nutrient vitamin A joined to palmitic acid. |
|---|---|
| In vitro | The microencapsulation of vitamin A palmitate by gelatin-acacia complex is a promising method for converting an oily vitamin to solid powders for an aid to handling and ease of incorporation in preparations. [1] |
| In vivo | Vitamin A Palmitate (80 mg/kg daily p.o.) or (800 mg/kg once a week p.o.) dose-dependently decreases the size of papillomas in mice, the daily administration induces a somewhat higher extent of regression than the weekly application if the total doses are compared. Water miscible solutions of Vitamin A Palmitate as well as of Vitamin A acid given by the oral route elicit the same effect on papillomas. [2] Vitamin A Palmitate (A single simultaneous injection of 150 g) enhances cell-mediated immunity to sheep red blood cells(SRBC) as early as 3 days following immunization, and the enhancement persists for at least 3 weeks.
