1. General Introduction to Sodium Metabisulphite
Sodium Metabisulphite (Sodium Metabisulfite) is an inorganic compound with strong antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. This active ingredient is widely used as an antioxidant excipient and preservative in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industry formulations to prevent the degradation of main active ingredients.
The raw material is manufactured by Sujata Nutri-Pharma Pvt. Ltd. (India), a reputable chemical and excipient manufacturer. With an advanced synthesis and purification process, Sujata's Sodium Metabisulphite achieves optimal purity, strictly controls impurity indices, ensures absolute consistency between production batches, and fully meets the most stringent global pharmacopoeia standards.
