PhytoChol® Inject: parenteral grade cholesterol for nucleic acid therapeutics

Cholesterol is an important functional excipient for parenteral mRNA-based drug delivery systems. As part of the lipid nanoparticle protecting the mRNA, it can modulate drug release, enhance the ability of the drug formulation to penetrate cell membranes, and provide a stabilization effect.

PhytoChol® Inject is Evonik’s high-purity, vegetal- derived cholesterol suitable for parenteral applications. This ultra-low endotoxin cholesterol provides a first-rate alternative to traditional animal- based cholesterol, and is USP-NF, Ph.Eur and JP compliant.
