Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate (PLP) is the biologically active coenzyme form of Vitamin B6, directly involved in amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and hemoglobin formation.
Unlike pyridoxine, PLP does not require metabolic activation, making it highly suitable for pharmaceutical, clinical nutrition, and high-efficacy nutraceutical formulations.
