Ultrapure Polysorbate 80

Polysorbate80(HX2)™

Polysorbate 80(HX2)™ produced by NOF CORPORATION is a ultrapure product of the highest quality in the world, with extremely low aldehyde and peroxide levels. These characteristics contribute to its safety; in a rat study, Polysorbate 80(HX2)™, as compared to conventional Polysorbate 80 formulations, triggered less histamine release from rat mast cells. The in vivo dog study has also indicated less histamine release with our Polysorbate 80(HX2); as a natural consequence, because of the lower incidence of allergy noted, our Polysorbate 80(HX2)™ has drawn worldwide attention.
