Product Description

Natural Cosmetic Ingredients Red Powder Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin is a keto-type carotenoid, chemically named 3,3 '-dihydroxy-4,4' -diketo-β,β '-carotene, red solid powder, fat soluble, insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvent. It widely exists in the biological world, especially in the feathers of aquatic animals such as shrimp, crab, fish and birds, and plays the role of color.

Astaxanthin, also known as astaxanthin, astaxanthin. In 1933, a purplish red crystal was extracted from shrimp, crab and other aquatic products, which was later determined to be a carotenoid closely related to astaxanthin, so it was named astaxanthin. It is widely found in shrimp, crab, fish, birds, some algae and fungi and other organisms. As A non-provitamin A carotenoid, astaxanthin cannot be converted into vitamin A in the animal body, but it has the same antioxidant effect as carotenoids. Its ability to quense singlet oxygen and capture free radicals is more than 10 times higher than β-carotene and more than 100 times stronger than vitamin E, so it is also called "super vitamin E".

Function

Anti oxidation

The powerful antioxidant activity of astaxanthin is due to its ability to stabilize the membrane structure, reduce membrane permeability, and limit the entry of peroxide promoters into cells. Protect important molecules in cells from oxidative damage.

In addition, the experiments showed that astaxanthin could increase the activity and protein expression of antioxidant enzymes. Different doses of astaxanthin significantly increased the protein expression of peroxy hydrogenase and superoxide dismutase in animal cells, and their biological activities were also significantly improved, and these substances all played a good antioxidant effect in vivo.

Anticancer effect

Astaxanthin has a strong inhibitory effect on the proliferation of cancer cells, and high concentration of astaxanthin can kill tumor cells.

Astaxanthin boosts immunity

Astaxanthin can enhance the function of T cells in vivo, increase the number of neutrophil and natural killer cells, and participate in cellular immunity of the body.
