Vitamin K3 MSB
Full Name: Menadione Sodium Bisulphite. A water-soluble Vitamin K3 derivative formulated for animal nutrition, poultry diets, and feed premix manufacturing.
Menadione Sodium Bisulphite (MSB)
Vitamin K3 MSB (Menadione Sodium Bisulphite) is an essential synthetic analogue of Vitamin K, engineered specifically to furnish high biological activity and water solubility for animal feeding systems.
In intensive animal husbandry and commercial poultry farming, Vitamin K cannot always be synthesized in sufficient biological quantities by intestinal flora alone. Vitamin K3 MSB serves as a vital nutritional additive that catalyzes prothrombin synthesis in the liver, playing a crucial role in normal blood clotting mechanisms and preventing hemorrhagic disorders.
Orchem Pharma supplies Vitamin K3 MSB in free-flowing, crystalline powder form designed for uniform mixing into dry premixes and complete feeds without segregation.

Core Applications in Animal & Veterinary Science
Vitamin K3 MSB plays critical roles across commercial livestock feeds:
Poultry Feed Industry
Crucial for broilers and laying hens to prevent subcutaneous and intramuscular bleeding, reduce chick mortality, support beak-trimming recovery, and promote eggshell membrane integrity.
Animal-Feed Premix Formulation
Engineered with consistent particle size distribution to blend homogeneously into concentrated vitamin and mineral premixes with low static and minimal clumping.
Swine & Livestock Nutrition
Formulated to prevent porcine bleeding disorders, support neonatal piglet vitality, and maintain healthy bone calcification alongside Vitamin D3.
Veterinary & Feed Additive Formulations
Used by veterinary drug formulators in therapeutic anti-hemorrhagic powders, stress-pack water-soluble formulations, and supportive treatments.
