Product Details Form

What are the benefits for the skin?

The formation of melanin is mainly due to tyrosinase, and Kojic Acid powder can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, can play a significant whitening effect, and will not inhibit the activity of other enzymes, so it has a good whitening and freckle removal effect. Cosmetic raw materials are widely used. In addition, it has the properties of anti-oxidation, antibacterial, chelating with metal ions, etc. It and its derivatives have been widely used in the anti-bacterial and anti-corrosion of food, anti-oxidation and color protection of meat products, aquatic products, mushrooms, fruits and vegetables.

1. Inhibit tyrosinase, whitening

As a tyrosinase inhibitor, it can preemptively combine with copper ions in tyrosinase, so that copper ions lose their effect, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of dopachrome.

2. Antioxidant

Block tyrosine oxidation process

3. Freckles

Can strongly absorb ultraviolet rays. Prevents skin discoloration and age spots

What are the application directions?

1. Application in the field of cosmetics

It has been formulated into lotions, masks, lotions, and skin creams, and has been made into cosmetics that effectively relieve skin problems such as freckles, age spots, pigmentation, and acne. The concentration of 20ug/ml can inhibit 70-80% of the activity of various tyrosinase (or polyphenol oxidase PPO). Generally, the amount added in cosmetics is 0.5 to 2.0%

2. Food processing field

It can be used as a food additive to keep fresh, anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation. Experiments have shown that it can inhibit the conversion of sodium nitrite in bacon into carcinogenic nitrosamines, and the addition of kojic acid in food will not affect the taste, aroma and texture of food; kojic acid is also the raw material for the production of maltol and ethyl maltol. In food processing, Kojic Acid powder is widely used.

Benefit

At present, benzoic acid, sorbic acid and salts are widely used in food additives. Compared with these products, kojic acid has the following advantages:

1. Easily soluble in water, preservatives such as sorbic acid and benzoic acid need to be organically easily dissolved before they can be added to food

2. Because of its stronger and wider antibacterial effect, it is not restricted by bacteria. Sorbic acid has weak antibacterial ability and is easily inhibited by bacteria. It can only play a role if it is added in a sterile state.

3. Thermal stability, can be heated and sterilized at the same time with food, sorbic acid is easily volatilized when heated

4. PH value, PH value has no obvious effect on its antibacterial ability, sorbic acid and sodium benzoate will weaken the antibacterial ability with the increase of PH value

5. It is non-irritating to humans and can inhibit the formation of carcinogens from nitrite. Sorbic acid is irritating to human skin and eyes. The presence of nitrates may generate carcinogens.
