Canthaxanthin Powder 10%

What is Canthaxanthin 10%?

Canthaxanthin 10% is a keto-carotenoid pigment made through biological fermentation. Canthaxanthin powder is violet red powder, insoluble in water and ethanol, soluble in chloroform, and hardly soluble in vegetable oil. 

Canthaxanthin is added to feed as a colorant to improve the appearance of animal products. It is often used in poultry production to intensify the yellow or red color of egg yolks, chicken skin, and flesh. Similarly, in fish farming, Canthaxanthin is employed to enhance the natural coloration of fish species like salmon and trout, providing them with a more vibrant and appealing appearance. Crustaceans, such as shrimp and crayfish, also benefit from Canthaxanthin supplementation to achieve desirable pigmentation.

HJ HERB Manufactured Canthaxanthin in its feed-grade form serves as a natural pigment used in animal feed to enhance the coloration of poultry, fish, and crustaceans. Its addition aims to improve the visual appeal of animal products while potentially offering some nutritional benefits.

I couldn't find a consistent global wholesale price for Maxanthin powder (or bulk raw powder) in the animal-nutrition market. However, here are some current retail prices for the human supplement version, which can serve as a reference:

• A Philippine online pharmacy lists a 20-capsule pack of Maxanthin 6 mg/1 mg soft gel for ₱460 (~USD 8.25). 
• Another listing shows 100 capsules of Maxanthin 6 mg/1 mg for ₱615 (~USD 11.05).
• A version of Maxanthin AREDS2 10 mg/2 mg soft gels is listed at ₱27 (~USD 0.49) for an unspecified size-this may be a misprint or sample.

Key Takeaways

These are retail consumer supplement prices, not bulk feed-additive prices for livestock or pet formulations.

For feed-grade or bulk animal-use powder, pricing may differ widely depending on purity, volume, region, and formulation.

If you're sourcing for pet or livestock feed, I recommend contacting suppliers/manufacturers for a quotation tailored to bulk volume, grade ("feed-grade" vs "nutraceutical grade"), shipping, and any required certification.
