Because it can regenerate other active ingredients, it's considered an enzyme as well as an antioxidant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a challenging ingredient to solubilize. It is sparingly soluble in caprylic capryl triglyceride - more when heated (50C) and a little soluble in glycerine (requires heating to 50C) and preferably a homogenizer or hot plate with a magnetic stirrer to help get it into solution. You can also add it to surfactant mixtures, where it blends in quite easily. It is soluble in all proportions in propylene glycol, Ethylhexyl glycerin,  and with high purity ethanol. Once the ingredient has been solubilized, it can then be added to your base. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSuggested Use \u0026amp; Storage\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINCI Nomenclature:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThioctic Acid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light Yellow Powder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolubility:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEthylhexyl Glycerine, P\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eropanediol, Ethanol (30-50 mg\/ml), and minimally in water and oils\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use Levels:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2-0.5% \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protect from light and store in a cool, dry location.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf life:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 months\u003cbr\u003eThis product should be added to a formulation at the recommended usage rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDocuments\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5421\/2003\/files\/SDS_-_R-Alpha_Lipoic_Acid_ALA_Enzyme_Thioctic_Acid_a730bf86-d5a6-4a16-8333-42011bec8938.pdf?v=1746780244\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSDS\u003c\/a\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5421\/2003\/files\/CoA_-_R-Alpha_Lipoic_Acid_ALA_Enzyme_Thioctic_Acid_75076ecf-c084-468f-b97c-92b1c3c3bb66.pdf?v=1746778312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCoA-\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eLOT: BN202411116\/CA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5421\/2003\/files\/CoA_-_R-Alpha_Lipoic_Acid_ALA_Enzyme_Thioctic_Acid_ef00f308-a064-4eda-ac25-13b0b09ae904.pdf?v=1746778492\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCoA-\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eLOT: BN202404081\/CA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5421\/2003\/files\/CoA_-_R-Alpha_Lipoic_Acid_ALA_Enzyme_Thioctic_Acid_1_d6ea58ce-ee71-45b3-af76-ef737cd030ff.pdf?v=1746778818\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCoA-\u003cspan class=\"WdYUQQ\"\u003eLOT: BN250419\/CA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5421\/2003\/files\/CoA_-_R-Alpha_Lipoic_Acid_ALA_Enzyme_Thioctic_Acid_1_dcc415da-2d8d-4d99-9943-88d7b94ecc4d.pdf?v=1746779118\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCoA-\u003cspan class=\"S1PPyQ\"\u003eLOT: BN202207161\/CA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bulk Naturals","offers":[{"title":"25 Grams","offer_id":44691517112364,"sku":"3181674102096","price":13.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Grams","offer_id":44691517177900,"sku":"3181674102119","price":38.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"250 Grams","offer_id":44691517210668,"sku":"3181674102126","price":81.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"500 Grams","offer_id":44691517243436,"sku":"3181674102133","price":134.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1kg - Email for pricing","offer_id":44691517276204,"sku":"3181674102140","price":243.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/6260\/8940\/files\/Alpha-Lipoic-Acid.jpg?v=1755794378","url":"https:\/\/littleredgeneralstore.com\/products\/r-alpha-lipoic-acid-ala-enzyme-thioctic-acid","provider":"Little Red General Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
