Choline is a member of the vitamin B group. It is a colourless, crystalline compound which absorbs water quickly. It is highly soluble in water and alcohol. Dilute solutions of choline (less than 4%) are not destroyed by heat. However, when concentrated solutions of choline are boiled, it decomposes.
