L-(+)-Erythrulose - Introduction
Erythrulose(Erythrulose) is a natural sugar derivative commonly used as a sunscreen in cosmetics and artificial tanning products. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of the Erythrulose:
Nature:
- Erythrulose is a colorless to slightly yellow crystalline powder.
-It is soluble in water and alcohol solvents.
- Erythrulose has a sweet taste, but its sweetness is only 1/3 of sucrose.
Use:
- Erythrulose are widely used in cosmetics and skin care products, usually as sunscreen ingredients for artificial tanning products and natural tanning products.
-It has the effect of increasing skin pigmentation, which can make the skin get a healthy bronze color faster after sun exposure.
- Erythrulose is also used as an additive in certain natural and organic weight loss products.
Preparation Method:
- Erythrulose is usually produced by microbial fermentation, and the microorganisms used are commonly Corynebacterium genus (Streptomyces sp).
-In the production process, microorganisms use specific substrates, such as glycerol or other sugars, to produce Erythrulose through fermentation.
-Finally, after extraction and purification, the pure Erythrulose product is obtained.
Safety Information:
-According to existing research, Erythrulose is considered to be a relatively safe ingredient that will not cause obvious irritation or toxic reactions under normal use.
-However, for certain groups of people, such as pregnant women or people who are allergic to other sugar components, it is recommended to consult a doctor's advice before use.
-To prevent potential allergic reactions or other adverse reactions, please follow the recommended dosage and instructions on the product label.
