glucolatone made in China

タイトルまたは説明

In its raw form, gluconolactone is a white powder comprised of tiny crystals. The ingredient has a variety of other names, including glucono delta-lactone, E**5, d-gluconic acid and 1,5 gluconolactone. Many skin care companies include gluconolactone in their products, and the substance can perform a wide number of functions in formulations. Gluconolactone is also used as a flavoring agent in many foods, such as wine, honey and fruit juice.

In skin care products, gluconolactone can serve either as an active ingredient (an ingredient that is included in a formula to provide benefits for the skin) or as an additive (an ingredient that is included to help improve the overall quality of the product). As an active ingredient, gluconolactone is often added to formulas because of its skin-conditioning properties.

Clinical studies on gluconolactone that have occurred in recent years suggest that the substance may have additional benefits when used as an active ingredient; however, more research is necessary to prove definitively that gluconolactone possesses the properties that these initial studies show. Some evidence exists to suggest that gluconolactone is a mild anti-bacterial and may be useful in products designed for treating acne. The ingredient may also improve skin cell turnover and function similarly to alpha hydroxy acids like glycolic acid.
