Application:Nicotinamide is a water-soluble B complex vitamin which is naturally present in animal products, whole cereals and legumes. Together with nicotinic acid (niacin), it belongs to vitamin B3 or vitamin PP, and is required as a nutrient to prevent the niacin deficiency disorder pellagra. It functions as a coenzyme or cosubstrate in many biological reduction and oxidation reactions required for energy metabolism in mammalian systems. It is used as a nutritional supplement, therapeutic agent, skin and hair conditioning agent in cosmetics, and a constituent of consumer household solvent and cleaning products and paints. Nicotinamide is approved for use by the FDA as a food additive to enrich corn meal, farina, rice, and macaroni and noodle products. It is also affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by the FDA as a direct human food ingredient which includes its use in infant formula. It is approved for use in pesticide products applied to growing crops only as a synergist with a maximum limitation of 0.5% of formulation.
