Ectoine, registered in cosmetics under the name 4-methylhydropyrimidine-2-carboxylic acid, is an amino acid derivative. It is primarily produced commercially through a "bacterial milking" process using moderate halophilic bacteria. Ectoine is not only capable of balancing cellular osmotic pressure but also offers excellent protection for enzymes, DNA, proteins, nucleic acids, cell membranes, and the entire cell under extreme environmental conditions, such as high temperatures, freezing cold, drought, extreme pH, high pressure, high salt, and high radiation.
Functions:
- Moisturizing: Ectoine is an essential substance for maintaining osmotic pressure balance and acts as a natural humectant.
- Repair: It helps counteract the damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation and aids in repairing UV-induced cellular DNA damage.
Applications:
Ectoine is widely used in cosmetics, particularly in skincare products such as face masks, creams, serums, and sunscreens.
Product Features:
- Sourced from patented bacterial fermentation: This process is more environmentally friendly and safer.
- Zero organic solvent extraction and physical separation purification technology: Ensures no secondary contamination during production.
- No toxic or harmful chemicals used during production.
