Astaxanthin Powder CAS 472-61-7

Astaxanthin is a ketone or carotenoid, and high-quality Astaxanthin powder has a pink color, is fat soluble, insoluble in water, and soluble in organic solvents. It is the strongest antioxidant in nature, and according to relevant scientific research results, its antioxidant activity is 550 times that of vitamin E and 10 times that of beta carotene. Some media even claim that the introduction of astaxanthin has led to a revolution in the antioxidant market.

What are the physiological functions and effects of Astaxanthin?

Natural astaxanthin is the strongest antioxidant discovered by humans in nature, with antioxidant activity far exceeding existing antioxidants. We know that the skin is composed of three layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous fat. The dermis layer contains collagen, elastin, and other fibers that form the skeleton that supports the skin. It is also these elements that make the skin appear smooth and youthful, and these elements are also susceptible to damage from ultraviolet radiation.
Ultraviolet radiation is divided into long wave ultraviolet (UVA) and short wave ultraviolet (UVB). Among them, UVA, a type of long wave ultraviolet, can reach the dermis layer due to its relatively long wavelength, mainly damaging collagen and elastin, leading to the formation of wrinkles. UVB, on the other hand, mainly acts on the epidermis, causing sunburn or melanin deposition, forming spots or darkening the skin.
Astaxanthin is a broken chain antioxidant with strong antioxidant capacity, which can remove NO2, sulfides, disulfides, etc. It can also reduce lipid peroxidation and effectively inhibit lipid peroxidation caused by free radicals. It is reported that the high-quality astaxanthin powder not only has many physiological functions such as inhibiting tumor occurrence, enhancing immunity, eliminating free radicals in the body, but also has a good therapeutic effect on skin cancer caused by ultraviolet rays, and also has a preventive effect on eye diseases caused by diabetes. It has broad application prospects in health products, medicine, cosmetics, food additives, aquaculture and other aspects.

How to find high-quality astaxanthin?

Astaxanthin can be produced by certain algae, bacteria, and fungi. It also exists in marine organisms such as shrimp, crabs, salmon, and algae, but it has not been found that the human body can synthesize astaxanthin on its own.
Although natural astaxanthin exists in various organisms such as crab shells, shrimp shells, and red yeast, its content is very low and the extraction process is complex. And according to relevant research, astaxanthin has different distributions and forms in different tissues and organs of different animals. For example, astaxanthin in salmon skin, eggs, and scales is mainly in the esterified state, while free astaxanthin is mainly distributed in muscles, plasma, and internal organs. The astaxanthin in the body of small shrimp and the skin of sea carp is mainly in an esterified state. Esterified astaxanthin is a more stable astaxanthin stored in the body that has not been oxidized. The main component of Haematococcus pluvialis is esterified astaxanthin, which is widely recognized as a natural producer of astaxanthin in nature. In recent years, the extraction of astaxanthin from red algae has developed rapidly, not only due to the fast growth of red algae and high concentration of astaxanthin. Moreover, due to the fact that most of the astaxanthin synthesized chemically is non lipophilic, the astaxanthin powder provided by our company is mainly extracted from pure natural sources with Haematococcus pluvialis, which is widely recognized as the best source for producing naturally esterified astaxanthin in nature. Astaxanthin stored in its body is more stable and has not been oxidized.

What are the further research achievements about natural astaxanthin?

Natural astaxanthin, also known as astacene or astacin, is an extremely precious raw material for health, which can be used to develop natural and healthy products for improving immunity, antioxidation, anti-inflammation, eye and brain health, and regulating blood lipid. At present, it is mainly used as the raw material of human advanced health food and medicine; Feed additives for aquaculture (mainly salmon, trout and salmon at present) and poultry breeding; Cosmetic additives. Clinical research shows that astaxanthin can significantly improve human immunity compared with common astaxanthin. Because it can bind with skeletal muscle nonspecific, it can effectively eliminate free radicals produced by exercise in muscle cells and strengthen aerobic metabolism, so it has significant anti-fatigue effect. It is the only carotenoid that can pass through the blood-brain barrier, and it has a real anti-aging effect. Effective anti-oxidation is the basis of all beauty activities. Because of its super anti-oxidation effect, it can effectively remove wrinkles, anti-aging, sunscreen and whitening, and remove chloasma caused by age. It has a good effect in preventing and treating "age-related macular degeneration" and improving retinal function. The above information has been affirmed by China Academy of Sciences.
In addition, the stability and antioxidant activity of synthetic astaxanthin are lower than that of natural astaxanthin. This is because the hydroxyl groups (-OH) at both ends of astaxanthin molecule can be esterified, which leads to different stability. More than 90% of natural astaxanthin exists in esterified form, so it is relatively stable. Synthetic astaxanthin exists in free state, so its stability is different, and it must be embedded to be stable. Synthetic astaxanthin has only about 1/4 left-handed structure, so its oxidation resistance is only about 1/4 of that of natural astaxanthin.
