What you are buying
Consistent enough to formulate against
Purity on a label is easy. Purity that repeats from batch to batch is what a formulation team actually needs, because a shifting alkaloid profile means revalidating work you have already signed off.
Our 99.9% grade is produced on a single controlled line, with each batch traced back to the tobacco lot it came from and released only against specification. Related alkaloids and residual solvents are held to monograph limits rather than to whatever a batch happens to give.
Where buyers use it
Nicotine replacement therapy manufacturing, pharmaceutical formulation, nicotine salt preparation, regulated product manufacturing and analytical reference work.
Also available as
Nicotine salts prepared to order from this released base, and pharmacopoeia grade material for NRT programmes. Both are described on their own pages.
