Description ：Biosaccharide Gum-1 is a linear biopolysaccharide (>106Daltons). Biosaccharide Gum-1, with a strong water-binding ability, is highly absorbent even in a low-humidity environment, and able to form a ventilate sugar coating on the surface of the skin. To prevent skin moisture from evaporating again, Biosaccharide Gum-1 is blessed with both immediate and long-lasting moisturizing effects. Dermatologically, it is not only effective in moisturizing and soothing, but also endows a soft silky sensation to cosmetic products, and providing cosmetics formulators with more choices of high-quality raw materials, which in turn makes it the new favorite for international cosmetics brands.
BioActive Gel is a linear polysaccharide viscous solution obtained by bacterial fermentation of plant materials through biological processes. BioActive Gel is the best “active excipient” due to its perfect sensory and moisturizing properties.
Structure diagram of BioActive Gel
Both an excipient and an active agent, BioActive Gel has a dual effect on the skin:
– Physical effects: It effectively improves the skin and forms a coating on the skin surface to maintain moisture.
– Biological activity: It can alleviate inflammation and allergy, promote longevity factor activity and differentiate keratinocyte through the interaction of polysaccharide and keratinocyte receptor.
Multifunctional active agent
Moisturizing properties of BioActive Gel:
A unique film-forming effect allows the skin a 2-in-1 moisturizing effect:
Instant moisturizing effect: The macromolecular structure of the polysaccharide is capable of forming a protective coating on the surface of the skin to retain moisture. Compared to the hyaluronic acid whose moisturizing effect continues to decrease after use, the moisturizing effect of the biopolysaccharide limb increases slowly.
Long-lasting moisturizing effect: Enzymes in the skin can degrade molecular weight polysaccharides into small molecular sugars or free sugars that can retain moisture.
BioActive Gel’s excellent film-forming property benefits from its high molecular weight polysaccharides, while the “water absorption” of sugar enhances its moisturizing property. Hyaluronic acid moisturizing takes and loses effect immediately, while BioActive Gel, with a slow and long-standing moisturizing effect, provides a stronger hydration for the skin because it is more easily degraded by skin enzymes into smaller molecular sugars to naturally capture water molecules.
BioActive Gel’s allergy-relieving performance:
BioActive Gel prompts the removal of blunt macrophages from infected sites by competitively inhibiting MIF (macrophage inhibitory factor). MIF can fix itself on the receptor of macrophages or fucose contained in BioActive Gel. When it is fixed on fucose, macrophages will not be activated by MIF and will remain inert, so that they can be removed from the infected point.
Bio-Polysaccharide Gel’s pleasant skin sensation:
In vivo test of the blanks showed that 5% of BioActive Gel enriched the texture without increasing viscosity. Due to the presence of fucose, the measurement of sensory differences is very reliable: this sugar has a methyl group on the sixth carbon of its molecule, making it lipophilic. It can produce a palpable silkiness.
The new technology developed with sugar as a source has created sugar cosmetics. The specific cell membrane receptors and cell membrane receptors in the skin are included in the cell information transfer process to make sugar a true way of mutual understanding between cells. BioActive Gel combines sensory pleasure and cosmetic properties to bring happiness to users. They can adjust the user’s mood, give them a pleasant sensory experience and a happy feeling, which indicates the connection between the skin and the brain.
Product efficacy:
- Long-lasting moisturizer that enables extremely moisturized skin, and relieves fine lines and wrinkles
- Excellent bio-coating agent that forms a bio-elastic coating, instantly soothing the skin
- Improving delicacy and softness of the skin without increasing the viscosity, giving the product a relaxed and pleasant feeling
Applications:
- Moisturizer, anti-wrinkle agent, coating former, sensorial modifier, etc.
- It can be used in moisturizing products, anti-aging products, and soothing repair products, suitable dosage form liquid preparations, gels, essences, lotions, skin creams, etc.
Appearance: transparent to semi-transparent viscous solution Suggestions for use: skin care 3 -10%, 5% would provide fine texture, 7% would improve the texture and feeling after use. It can be heated after being added directly into aqueous phase.
