Choline Chloride, with CAS Number 67-48-1. It consists of the choline cation and chloride anion.
As a highly water-soluble compound, it functions as a precursor to important molecules like acetylcholine, phosphatidylcholine, and betaine.
Choline Chloride is a vital quaternary ammonium salt and an essential nutrient often classified as Vitamin B4. It serves as a key dietary supplement in animal feed and human nutrition, supporting liver function, fat metabolism, nerve signaling, and overall growth.

Applications and Uses of Choline Chloride
Choline Chloride is versatile and applied across several key industries:
Animal Feed and Livestock Nutrition
- Primary additive in poultry (broilers, layers), swine, ruminants, and aquaculture feeds.
- Prevents perosis in birds, supports prenatal brain development in pigs, and enhances milk production in dairy cattle.
- Commonly used at 50-70% liquid on corn cob carrier or high-purity powder for precise dosing.
Human Nutrition and Pharmaceuticals
- Dietary supplement source of choline for infant formulas, geriatric nutrition, and parenteral feeding.
- Supports brain health, liver protection, and fat metabolism in humans (adequate intake: 425-550 mg/day for adults).
- Used in multivitamin complexes and specialized medical foods.
Industrial Applications
- Clay stabilizer in oil and gas drilling fluids.
- Chemical intermediate and processing aid in various formulations.
