CEREVISTEROL - Introduction
Cerevisterol (cervisterol), also known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae sterol, is a sterol compound naturally produced in brewer's yeast. The following is a description of some of the properties, uses, methods and safety information of cervisterol:
Nature:
-Appearance: Cerevisterol is usually white crystalline or powdery.
-Chemical structure: Its molecular formula is C27H44O, which has a tricyclic steroid structure.
-Stability: relatively stable at room temperature, but sensitive to light and heat.
-Solubility: Cerevisterol is easy to dissolve in organic solvents, but has low solubility in water.
Use:
-Nutritional supplements: Cerevisterol is rich in vitamin B group and a variety of minerals, is often used as a nutritional supplement to the human body.
-Cosmetics: Because of its moisturizing, antioxidant and anti-aging properties, cervisterol is often used in cosmetics and skin care products.
-Pharmaceutical field: Some studies have shown that cervisterol has anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and immunomodulatory properties, so it also has certain potential uses in the field of medicine.
Method:
- Cerevisterol is usually obtained by extraction from wine yeast. Methods of extraction may include solvent extraction, extractant extraction, or other specific separation and purification methods.
Safety Information:
- Cerevisterol is widely regarded as safe for humans and has no significant toxicity or irritation.
-However, for high dose ingestion or sensitive individuals there may be a few side effects such as indigestion or allergic reactions.
-When using Cerevisterol as a nutritional supplement or cosmetic ingredient, it is recommended to follow appropriate dosage and use guidelines, and pay attention to personal allergic reactions. If you feel unwell, please consult a doctor or professional.
