Product Specification

L-ergothioneine

What is L-ergothioneine?     

     L Ergothioneine Extract is a naturally occurring amino acid and antioxidant derived from mushrooms, beans, and other natural sources. Recognized for its superior antioxidant properties, it helps protect cells from oxidative stress, making it highly sought after in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, and skincare industries. Our extract is processed using advanced technology, ensuring high purity, bioavailability, and retention of its natural benefits.Studies have shown that ergothioneine has a strong antioxidant function and is known as the king of antioxidants. This is because as a natural amino acid derivative, ergothioneine is not easily consumed while being antioxidant, and it can also maintain the levels of other antioxidants, such as VC and glutathione. Mitochondria produce energy and consume oxygen every day, and ergothioneine can penetrate deep into the mitochondria to remove free radicals

key Features

     1.Moisturizing: ergothioneine can help the skin lock in moisture, reduce the loss of moisture in the dermis of the skin, keep the skin moisturized for a long time, avoid dryness, peeling, redness and other discomfort symptoms of the skin, and reduce the formation of fine lines.

     2.Antioxidant: ergothioneine is an antioxidant that can help the skin resist and remove free radicals, reduce their damage and decomposition to skin collagen, and slow down skin aging.

     3.Relieve inflammation: ergothioneine can also help the skin relieve inflammation, avoid skin sensitivity, erythema and other discomfort symptoms, reduce the damage of inflammation to the skin, and protect skin health.

     4.Anti-aging: ergothioneine can prevent skin aging and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by reducing the generation and impact of free radicals. In addition, it can promote the synthesis of collagen and enhance the elasticity and firmness of the skin.

     5.Whitening and freckle removal: ergothioneine can inhibit the activity of melanocytes, reduce the production of melanin, and has a synergistic effect when used with human placenta extract.

     6.Control secretion: Ergothioneine has a strong bactericidal effect, which can effectively remove bacteria on the surface of the skin and help eliminate acne and blackheads. In addition, ergothioneine can also reduce spots and pigmentation, making the skin smoother and softer.

     7.Promote skin metabolism: Ergothioneine can promote skin metabolism, remove dead skin cells, and make the skin smoother and more delicate. At the same time, it can also accelerate skin regeneration, promote collagen synthesis, and help improve skin elasticity and glossiness.

     8.Anti-aging: Ergothioneine has coenzyme-like properties and participates in various biochemical activities of the human body. When applied to the skin, it can increase the activity of cortical cells and has an anti-aging effect.

Applications

1.Antioxidant
      Ergothioneine is a natural antioxidant with highly protective properties and is non-toxic. Among many antioxidants, ergothioneine is particularly unique because it can chelate heavy metal ions, protecting red blood cells from free radical damage.

2.Applications in Organ Transplantation
      In organ protection, it can serve as a glutathione substitute, better protecting transplanted organs.

3.Applications as a Skin Protectant
     Ergothioneine can be added to certain cosmetics as a skin protectant for outdoor skincare and protective cosmetics.

4.Ophthalmic Applications
     Research has shown that ergothioneine plays a key role in eye protection. Therefore, many researchers hope to develop an ophthalmic product to promote the development of ophthalmic surgical treatments. Ophthalmic surgery is generally performed locally, and the water solubility and stability of ergothioneine make this procedure feasible, making it of great application value.

5.Other Applications
     Due to its excellent properties, ergothioneine has applications in many fields. For example, it can be used in the fields of medicine, food, health care products, and cosmetics. In the medical field, it can be used to treat inflammation and can be made into tablets, capsules, and oral preparations. In the health care product field, it can be used to prevent the occurrence of cancer and can be made into functional foods and functional drinks. In the cosmetic field, it can be used for anti-aging and can be made into sunscreens.

Package & Storage

      Our packing method is 1KG/Aluminium bags, 25kg/drum

      For some products that require special packaging during transportation, we will carry out more delicate packaging. For example, retinal needs to be stored at -20 °C, so we choose cold chain transportation during transportation; deoxyarbutin will change color during transportation, so we will Vacuum packing of deoxyarbutin
