Calcium Pantothenate by Molecular Depot is a calcium pantothenate, the calcium salt of pantothenic acid, vitamin B5. Pantothenate is the precursor of coenzyme A, and because coenzyme A is required for every acyl transfer in metabolism the vitamin is needed by essentially every cell. It is used as a vitamin supplement in culture and fermentation media, as a reference standard in vitamin analysis and in coenzyme A biosynthesis research. Each unit contains 5 g. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
