Choline bitartrate, 98+%

Description

CAS: 87-67-2 | C9H19NO7 | 253.251 g/mol

Choline Bitartrate is used by nerve cells to manufacture a chemical called acetylcholine, which effectively allows cells to communicate with each other. Choline is also heavily associated with neurological function and can help improve movement, coordination, and myofibril contraction.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
