General information: Symptoms of poisoning may even occur after several hours; therefore, medical observation for at least 48 hours after the accident.
After inhalation: In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in side position for transportation.
After skin contact: Immediately wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly.
After eye contact: Rinse opened eye for several minutes under running water. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
Fire-Fighting Measures
After swallowing: Immediately call a doctor.

Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Components with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: Not required.
Additional information: The lists that were valid during the creation were used as basis.
General protective and hygienic measures: Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Breathing equipment: In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use respiratory protective device that is independent of circulating air.
Protection of hands: The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.
Material of gloves: The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Penetration time of glove material: The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
Eye protection: Tightly Sealed Goggles

If you are interested on Liposomal Alpha Lipoic Acid, then
Liposomal alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) API (active pharmaceutical ingredient) is a specialized formulation where alpha-lipoic acid, a naturally occurring organosulfur compound, is encapsulated within phospholipid-based liposomes to serve as a raw material for pharmaceutical or nutraceutical products.
Chemically, ALA (C₈H₁₄O₂S₂, 1,2-dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid) is a chiral molecule with a five-membered disulfide ring, exhibiting amphiphilic properties due to its ability to dissolve in both aqueous and lipid environments, though its stability is sensitive to heat and oxidation. The liposomal encapsulation, typically utilizing phosphatidylcholine, forms a dry or semi-dry powder or granular matrix, enhancing ALA’s resistance to degradation.
Physically, this API appears as a pale yellow to off-white powder, with a faint sulfurous odor characteristic of ALA’s thioctic structure, and its fine texture reflects the microscale liposomal vesicles. The liposomal coating improves ALA’s dispersibility and protects its reactive disulfide bond, making it a robust ingredient for downstream formulation into supplements or therapeutics. As a leading API manufacturer, WBCIL prioritizes strict CGMP and ISO quality control measures throughout the production process. The prolonged experience from 1962 ensures consistent potency, purity, and safety in every dose of WBCIL’s liposomal alpha lipoic acid.
