§ 184.1950 Vitamin D.
（a） Vitamin D is added to food as the following food ingredients:
（1） Crystalline vitamin D2（C28H44O, CAS Reg. No. 50–14–6）, also known as ergocalciferol, is the chemical 9,10-seco（5Z,7E,22E）-5,7,10（19）,22-ergostatetraen-3-ol. The ingredient is produced by ultraviolet irradiation of ergosterol isolated from yeast and related fungi and is purified by crystallization.
（2） Crystalline vitamin D3（C27H44O, CAS Reg. No. 67–97–0）, also known as cholecalciferol, is the chemical 9,10-seco（5Z,7E,）-5,7,10（19）-cholestatrien-3-ol. Vitamin D3occurs in, and is isolated from, fish liver oils. It is also manufactured by ultraviolet irradiation of 7-dehydrocholesterol produced from cholesterol. It is purified by crystallization. Vitamin D3is the vitamin D form that is produced endogenously in humans through sunlight activation of 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin.
（3） Vitamin D2resin and vitamin D3resin are the concentrated forms of irradiated ergosterol （D2） and irradiated 7-dehydrocholesterol （D3） that are separated from the reacting materials in paragraphs （a） （1） and （2） of this section. The resulting products are sold as food sources of vitamin D without further purification.
（b） Vitamin D2and vitamin D3as crystals meet the specifications of the Food Chemicals Codex, 3d Ed. （1981）, pp. 344 and 345, which is incorporated by reference.
