Isothiazolinones are frequently used in personal care products such as shampoos and other hair care products, as well as certain paint formulations.
There, often combinations of MIT and CMIT (known as Kathon CG) or MIT and BIT are used.


-Isothiazolinones are heterocyclic compounds that are used as biocides.
Five derivatives are used in significant amounts:
*Methylisothiazolinone (MIT, MI)
*Chloromethylisothiazolinone (CMIT, CMI, MCI)
*Benzisothiazolinone (BIT)
*Octylisothiazolinone (OIT, OI)
*Dichlorooctylisothiazolinone (DCOIT, DCOI)
The derivative butylbenzisothiazolinone (BBIT) also exists, but does not have the same importance.



FUNCTIONS OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
Isothiazolinones can be widely used as bactericide for industrial circulating cool water, oilfield water and the like in the industries such as oil refining, chemical industry, fertilizer, electric power and metallurgy to control the growth of microorganism effectively.



PROPERTIES OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
Isothiazolinones have strong inhibition and biocidal effects on ordinary bacteria, fungi, and alga.
And Isothiazolinones have many advantages, such as high biocidal efficiency, good degradation, no residual, safety in operation, good compatibleness, good stabilization, and low cost in operation.

Isothiazolinones can mix with chlorine and most cation, anion, and non-ionic surfactants.
However, Isothiazolinones's bio-sludge stripping effect is excellent when used at high dosages.
Isothiazolinones are fungicidal with broad spectrum properties, high efficiency, low toxicity, and non-oxidative.
Isothiazolinones are the ideal biocidal in the industrial circulating cool water system.

Also, in wastewater treatment, the oilfield, papermaking, pesticide, cutting oil, leather, detergent, cosmetics, etc.
Isothiazolinones have a high inhibitory effect on various fungi and algae, such as green algae, brown algae, fungi, and bacteria.
At the same time, Isothiazolinones also control the growth of slime in water.



KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
*Rapid Inhibition of Microbial Growth
*Effective at low concentrations
*Requires lesser dosing
*Well effective over a wide pH range
*Non foaming
*Biodegradable



THERE ARE FIVE IMPORTANT DERIVATIVES IN THE FAMILY OF ANTIMICROBIAL ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
*Methylisothiazolinone (MIT, MI);
*Chloromethylisothiazolinone (CMIT, MIT, MCI);
*Benzisothiazolinone (BIT);
*Octylisothiazolinone (ILO, RO);
*Dichlorooctylisothiazolinone (DCOIT, COD).



ANALYSIS OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES IN YOUR COSMETIC PRODUCTS:
You need to analyse Isothiazolinones in your cosmetic products.
First of all, Isothiazolinones are a family of biocides composed from a heterocycle, 1,2-thiazol-3-one.
Isothiazolinones are used against bacteria and fungi in lacquers, paints, antifoulings and varnishes.

Isothiazolinones' biocidal effect comes from a two-step mechanism: a rapid inhibition of growth and respiration, followed by irreversible damage to the cell within hours.
By reacting with the cell’s proteins, oxygen consumption, hence respiration, and ATP synthesis, hence energy production, are inhibited.



THE PRINCIPAL ISOTHIAZOLINONES ARE:
*Methylisothiazolinone (MIT, MI)
*Chloromethylisothiazolinone (CMIT, CMI, MCI)
*Benzisothiazolinone (BIT)
*Octylisothiazolinone (OIT, OI)
*Dichlorooctylisothiazolinone (DCOIT, DCOI)
*Butylbenzisothiazolinone (BBIT)



MECHANISM OF ACTION OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
The antimicrobial activity of Isothiazolinones is attributed to their ability to inhibit life-sustaining enzymes, specifically those enzymes with thiols at their active sites.
Isothiazolinones are established that Isothiazolinones form mixed disulfides upon treatment with such species.



SYNTHESIS OF ISOTHIAZOLINONES:
Compared to many other simple heterocycles, the discovery of Isothiazolinones are fairly recent, with reports first appearing in the 1960s.
Isothiazolinones can be prepared on an industrial scale by the ring-closure of 3-mercaptopropanamides.
These in turn are produced from acrylic acid via the 3-mercaptopropionic acid

The stearate esters (Butyl Stearate, Cetyl Stearate, Isocetyl Stearate, Isopropyl Stearate, Myristyl Stearate, Ethylhexyl Stearate, Isobutyl Stearate) are oily liquids or waxy solids.
Ethylhexyl Stearate may also be called Octyl Stearate. In cosmetics and personal care products, stearate esters are used most frequently in the formulation of eye makeup, skin makeup, lipstick and skin care products.
Why is it used in cosmetics and personal care products?
Stearate esters act primarily as lubricants on the skin's surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance.
Butyl Stearate also decreases the thickness of lipsticks, thereby lessening the drag on lips, and imparts water-repelling characteristics to nail polishes.
Butyl Stearate and Isopropyl Stearate dry to form a thin coating on the skin. Isocetyl Stearate can also be used to dissolve other substances, usually liquids.

Scientific Facts:
The stearate esters are prepared by reacting stearic acid with the appropriate alcohol (butyl, cetyl, isobutyl, isocetyl, isopropyl, myristyl or ethylhexyl alcohol).
Stearate esters have the unique properties of low viscosity and oily nature, which results in a nongreasy, hydrophobic film when applied to the skin or lips.
Stearic acid is found in animal and vegetable fats.

Function in the product
Affects the application properties of cosmetics - gives a good glide when spreading (e.g. lipsticks on the lips), reduces sticking and greasiness of the cosmetic. Stick plasticizer - gives the sticks elasticity, prevents them from crushing.

Cosmetic action
Used in skin and hair care preparations, it creates an occlusive layer on the surface, which prevents excessive evaporation of water from the surface (indirect moisturizing effect), thus conditioning, i.e. softening and smoothing the skin and hair.

ITACONIC ACID
Itaconic Acid Itaconic acid, or methylidenesuccinic acid, is an organic compound. This dicarboxylic acid is a white solid that is soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone. Historically, itaconic acid was obtained by the distillation of citric acid, but currently it is produced by fermentation. The name itaconic acid was devised as an anagram of aconitic acid, another derivative of citric acid. Production Since the 1960s, it is produced industrially by the fermentation of carbohydrates such as glucose or molasses using fungi such as Aspergillus itaconicus or Aspergillus terreus. For A. terreus the itaconate pathway is mostly elucidated. The generally accepted route for itaconate is via glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and a decarboxylation of cis-aconitate to itaconate via cis-aconitate-decarboxylase. The smut fungus Ustilago maydis uses an alternative route. Cis-aconitate is converted to the thermodynamically favoured trans-aconitate via aconitate-Δ-isomerase (Adi1). trans-Aconitate is further decarboxylated to itaconate by trans-aconitate-decarboxylase (Tad1). Itaconic acid is also produced in cells of macrophage lineage. It was shown that itaconate is a covalent inhibitor of the enzyme isocitrate lyase in vitro. As such, itaconate may possess antibacterial activities against bacteria expressing isocitrate lyase (such as Salmonella enterica and Mycobacterium tuberculosis). However, cells of macrophage lineage have to "pay the price" for making itaconate, and they lose the ability to perform mitochondrial substrate-level phosphorylation. Laboratory synthesis Dry distillation of citric acid affords itaconic anhydride, which undergoes hydrolysis to itaconic acid. Reactions Upon heating, itaconic anhydride isomerizes to citraconic acid anhydride, which can be hydrolyzed to citraconic acid (2-methylmaleic acid). Steps in conversion of citric acid to citraconic acid via itaconic and aconitic acids. Partial hydrogenation of itaconic acid over Raney nickel affords 2-methylsuccinic acid. Itaconic acid is primarily used as a co-monomer in the production of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and acrylate latexes with applications in the paper and architectural coating industry. Properties and Application of Itaconic Acid Itaconic acid is a white crystalline powder having a hygroscopic property and a specific odor. Its melting point is 167–168 °C and the boiling point is 268 °C. Water solubility is 83.1 g l−1, and a solution (80 mg l−1) of itaconic acid in pure water has a pH of 2.0. The density of itaconic acid is 1.63 (20 °C). The pKa values of itaconic acid, its two dissociation steps, are 3.84 and 5.55 (25 °C). The equilibrium constants are K1 = 1.4 × 10−4 and K2 = 3.6 × 10−6 (25 °C). Itaconic acid is mainly used in the plastic and paint industry. It is an unsaturated dicarbonic acid, and can readily be incorporated into polymers and used at a concentration of 1–5% (w/w) as a comonomer in polymers. The polymerized methyl, ethyl, or vinyl esters of itaconic acid are used as plastics, adhesives elastomers, and coatings. Styrene butadiene copolymers containing itaconic acid yield rubber-like resins of excellent strength and flexibility and water-proofing coatings with good electrical insulation. Other fields for use are synthetic fibers, lattices, detergents, and cleaners. On the other hand, several mono- and diesters of partially substituted itaconic acid possess anti-inflammatory or analgesic activities, and a special new market has opened for the use of itaconic acid pharmaceutical fields. A small quantity of itaconic acid is used as acidulant. Itaconic acid (2-methylenesuccinic acid, 1-propene-2–3-dicarboxylic acid) is an unsaturated, weak dicarboxylic acid (pKa =3.83 and 5.41), discovered in 1837 as a thermal decomposition product of citric acid. The presence of the conjugated double bond of the methylene group allows polymerization both by addition and condensation. Esterification of the two carboxylic groups with different co-monomers is also possible (Kuenz et al., 2012). These diverse properties have led to a variety of applications in the pharmaceutical, architectural, paper, paint, and medical industries such as plastics, resins, paints, synthetic fibers, plasticizers, and detergents. Recently, itaconic acid applications have penetrated the dental, ophthalmic and drug delivery fields (Hajian and Yusoff, 2015). Itaconic acid polymers could even replace the petroleum-based polyacrylic acid, which has a multi-billion dollar market (Saha et al., 2019). Not surprisingly, the US Department of Energy assigned itaconic acid as one of the top 12 most promising building block chemicals for bio-based economy in 2004 (Werpy and Petersen, 2004). Little is known about the reasons why fungi produce itaconate. Like the other organic acids, as outlined above, also itaconic acid might serve as acidifier of the environment and thus provide selective advantage for the acid-tolerant A. terreus over other micro-organisms. However, itaconic acid also has clear inhibitory properties: in macrophages of mammals, bacterial infection prompts the induction of a gene encoding a cis-aconitate decarboxylase, resulting in itaconic acid formation that inhibits bacterial metabolism as part of the immune response. The effect has been attributed to the inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase and isocitrate lyase (McFadden et al., 1971), the latter being a key enzyme of the glyoxylate cycle, required for the survival of pathogens inside a host. In turn, a few strains of these bacteria have evolved to be capable of degrading itaconate (Sasikaran et al., 2014). Itaconic acid also induces a transcription factor which is essential for protection against oxidative and xenobiotic stresses, and to attenuate inflammation (Kobayashi et al., 2013; Bambouskova et al., 2018). Whether a similar function of itaconate exists in the fungi producing it has not yet been studied. The biosynthetic pathway of itaconic acid resembles that of citric acid, the latter acid being a direct precursor of the former. The only difference is that citric acid in A. terreus is further metabolized via cis-aconitate to itaconate by cis-aconitate decarboxylase (Bonnarme et al., 1995). To this end, cis-aconitate is transported out of the mitochondria by a specific antiporter in exchange for oxaloacetate (Li et al., 2011a,b). Itaconic acid – formed upon cis-aconitate decarboxylation – is finally secreted out of mycelia by a specific cell membrane transporter. Genes encoding these three enzymes, and a fourth one encoding a transcription factor, constitute the “itaconate gene cluster” in the A. terreus genome, while the cluster is notably absent in A. niger. Although several itaconate producers have been tested, the plant pathogenic Basidiomycete Ustilago maydis (the corn smut fungus) – and particularly its low pH-stable relative Ustilago cynodontis (Hosseinpour Tehrani et al., 2019b) – seems to be the only one with a reasonable chance to become another industrial platform organism (Hosseinpour Tehrani et al., 2019a). Ustilago has developed an alternative biochemical pathway to synthetize itaconate inasmuch as cis-aconitate is converted to the thermodynamically favored trans-aconitate by aconitate-delta-isomerase. Trans-aconitate is then decarboxylated to itaconate by trans-aconitate-decarboxylase. Production of Itaconic Acid by Fermentation Processes Itaconic acid is produced in batch fermentation in a process largely similar to that of citric acid. The carbon source should be in an easily metabolizable form (glucose syroup, molasses, and crude starch hydrolysates) and diluted to approximately 10% wt. Phosphate limitation is necessary for growth restriction. Some trace metals should also be in limited amounts and this is usually achieved by treating the media with hexacyanoferratl or addition of copper. The pH is kept between 2.8 and 3.2. Lower pH values favor the formation of byproducts. Yields of 50–60% of the theoretical yield are obtained in 8–10 days [5]. For many years, there seems to be almost no research interest for the production of itaconic acid and the process remained unchanged since its introduction. The situation is different today. Itaconic acid is listed by the US Department of Energy (DOE) as one of the 12 building blocks with the highest potential to be produced by industrial biotechnology [11]. Its current low production limits its uses. Metabolic engineering strategies, as an approach for yield improvement, have not yet been applied with A. terreus, as they were restricted by the poor knowledge of the genetics of itaconic acid biosynthesis. Recently, however, three genes – crucial in itaconic acid production by A. terreus – were identified by researchers in Toegepast Natuurwetenschappelijk Onderzoek (TNO), the Netherlands [15]. Apart from the new knowledge on the genetics of biosynthesis, the development of new fermentation technologies and more sophisticated bioprocess control has led to renewed interest in improving itaconic acid production. Novel fed-batch strategies and continuous processes using immobilized cultures are being developed and investigated. Itaconic acid is a dicarboxylic acid, which is used in industry as a precursor of polymers used in plastics, adhesives, and coatings. New uses of itaconic acid-derived polymers are under active investigation. The production of itaconic acid for 2001 was quoted as 15 000 tons. There is a renewed interest in this chemical as industry searches for substitutes of petroleum-derived chemicals. Virtually all itaconic acid produced is by fermentation by specific strains of A. terreus. Itaconic acid production is a further perversion of the Krebs cycle, citrate is converted as normally into cis-aconitate, which for reasons unknown is, in some organisms, decarboxylated into itaconitate, which has no known metabolic role in the cell. The fact that different strains of Aspergillus and more generally of fungi can divert metabolic pathways to the overproduction and secretion of useful chemicals, coupled with the fact that these organisms can grow on residues of processes such as sugar and ethanol production, open the possibility of engineering pathways to produce high value chemicals through ‘green’, low polluting, waste-eliminating procedures. Production Itaconic Acid Itaconic acid is an example of a di-carbonic unsaturated acid. These acids are used as building blocks for large numbers of compounds, such as resins, paints, plastics, and synthetic fibers (acrylic plastic, super absorbants, and antiscaling agents) [67]. The CAC intermediate cis-aconitate is enzymatically processed by cis-aconitate dehycarboxylase (CadA) to produce itaconic acid [68]. At the industrial scale the most explored organism for the fermentative production of itaconic acid is Aspergillus terrus. The biosynthetic pathway of itaconic acid is like citrate biosynthesis, where the flux of the CAC is used in the catalytic conversion of cis-aconitate into itaconic acid. Thus citrate is synthesized from oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, while oxaloacetate is synthesized from pyruvate by anaplerosis, which starts from the pyruvate that is the end product of glycolysis (Fig. 13.17). Itaconic acid (methylenesuccinic acid, C5H6O4) (Figure 17) is a white colorless crystalline, hygroscopic powder soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone. It is an unsaturated diprotic acid, which derives its unique chemical properties from the conjugation of one of its two carboxylic acid groups with its methylene group. Itaconic acid was discovered by Baup in 1837 as a product of pyrolytic distillation of citric acid. The name itaconic was devised as an anagram of aconitic. Itaconic acid is formed in fermentation of some sugars. In 1929, Kinoshita first showed the acid to be a metabolic product of Aspergillus itaconicus. A derivative of itaconic acid (trans-phenylitaconic acid) was isolated from another natural source (Artemisia argyi). The biosynthetic pathway of itaconic acid from glucose is similar to that of citric acid, which occurs via the glycolytic pathway and anaplerotic formation of oxaloacetate by CO2 fixation and via the TCA cycle (Figure 2). Itaconic acid is formed by the cytosolic enzyme aconitate decarboxylase from cis-aconitic acid. Another biosynthetic pathway from pyruvate through citramalic acid, citraconic acid, and itartaric acid also results in itaconic acid (Figure 18). In contrast to several other organic acids (e.g., citric, isocitric, lactic, fumaric, and l-malic acid) itaconic acid is used exclusively in nonfood applications, especially in the polymer industry. Itaconic acid derivatives are used in medicine, cosmetics, lubricants, thickeners, and herbicides (e.g., substituted itaconic acid anilides). Itaconic acid is produced solely by batch submerged fungal fermentation. Aspergillus terreus has been used from the 1940s in the fermentation process, which is similar to that of citric acid (see ‘Citric acid’), that is, it requires an excess of readily metabolizable sugar (glucose syrup, crude starch hydrolysates, and decationized molasses – up to 200 g l−1 sugar), continuous aeration, a low initial pH (between 3 and 5), sufficient nitrogen, high magnesium sulfate concentration (0.5%), low phosphate to limit biomass production, and a limitation in metal ions (zinc, copper, and iron). However, there exists one significant difference in that the sensitivity of this fungus to the formed acid, in contrast to A. niger, necessitates maintaining of the pH at 2.8–3.1 throughout the fermentation, in order to obtain high amounts of the acid. At present, the published production yield of itaconic acid is about 85% of theoretical, accompanied by product concentrations of about 80 g l−1 during a cultivation at 39–42 °C for 8–10 days. Recovery of itaconic acid is accomplished by first separating the fungal biomass by filtration followed by evaporation, treatment with active carbon, and crystallization and recrystallization. Actual markets for itaconic acid are currently limited because the fungal fermentation is carried out at a relatively high cost. New biotechnological approaches, such as published immobilization techniques, screening programs for other producing organisms (such as yeast), and genetic engineering of A. terreus (the annotated genome sequence of A terreus strain NIH 2624 has been publicly released), or of A. niger, could lead to higher production of itaconic acid. Also, the use of alternative substrates may reduce costs and thus open the market for new and expanded applications of this acid. This valuable acid can be produced by several organisms, such as Candida sp., Pseudozyma antarctica, and several species of Aspergillus [49], but the two most common microorganisms used are Aspergillus terreus, used in industrial processes, and Ustilago maydis, which is currently being actively investigated as a possible industrial product. The acid is used commercially as a comonomer in some synthetic rubbers (styrene-butadiene and nitrilic) and as a plasticizer in the formulation of other polymers. Its production is traditionally done using sugars as raw materials, in a technology that was developed in the first half of the 20th century [50], but that was not developed due to the low competitivity of the acid with the petrochemical acrylic acid. With the development of integrated and sustainable processes, the interest in the bioproduction of itaconic acid is renewed. Itaconic acid, or methylidenesuccinic acid, is an organic compound. This dicarboxylic acid is a white solid that is soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone. Historically, itaconic acid was obtained by the distillation of citric acid, but currently it is produced by fermentation. The name itaconic acid was devised as an anagram of aconitic acid, another derivative of citric acid. Production Since the 1960s, it is produced industrially by the fermentation of carbohydrates such as glucose or molasses using fungi such as Aspergillus itaconicus or Aspergillus terreus. For A. terreus the itaconate pathway is mostly elucidated. The generally accepted route for itaconate is via glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and a decarboxylation of cis-aconitate to itaconate via cis-aconitate-decarboxylase. The smut fungus Ustilago maydis uses an alternative route. Cis-aconitate is converted to the thermodynamically favoured trans-aconitate via aconitate-Δ-isomerase (Adi1). trans-Aconitate is further decarboxylated to itaconate by trans-aconitate-decarboxylase (Tad1). Itaconic acid is also produced in cells of macrophage lineage. It was shown that itaconate is a covalent inhibitor of the enzyme isocitrate lyase in vitro. As such, itaconate may possess antibacterial activities against bacteria expressing isocitrate lyase (such as Salmonella enterica and Mycobacterium tuberculosis). However, cells of macrophage lineage have to "pay the price" for making itaconate, and they lose the ability to perform mitochondrial substrate-level phosphorylation. Dry distillation of citric acid affords itaconic anhydride, which undergoes hydrolysis to itaconic acid. Reactions Upon heating, itaconic anhydride isomerizes to citraconic acid anhydride, which can be hydrolyzed to citraconic acid (2-methylmaleic acid). Steps in conversion of citric acid to citraconic acid via itaconic and aconitic acids. Partial hydrogenation of itaconic acid over Raney nickel affords 2-methylsuccinic acid. Itaconic acid is primarily used as a co-monomer in the production of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and acrylate latexes with applications in the paper and architectural coating industry. Itaconic acid is produced using A. terreus, from simple sugars. The production can be done using submerged solid fermentation, and the typical substrates are derived from sugar production, such as molasses. The accepted mechanism for itaconic acid production consists of the conversion of cis-aconitate to itaconate by an enzymatically catalyzed decarboxylation [53] (Fig. 18.6). Cis-aconitate is part of the Krebs cycle, so that the process is aerobic—actually extremely oxygen dependent, as determined by Gyamerah [54]. Calcium and zinc are important [55], as well as copper [56], and the maintenance of a low phosphate level is essential [53]. The ideal temperature is 40°C, and pH must be reduced to 2 to start the production. The process is extremely aerobic for the first 72 h of the process, with yields around 60%w/w (product/substrate) [55]. The final concentration ranges between 30 and 60 g/L depending on the substrate [56–58]. After fermentation, the broth is clarified and the free acid can be concentrated and crystallized, but if a base is used for partial neutralization during the process (which can increase the yield), it is necessary to remove the cations used in the crystallization. The production of itaconic acid in SSF is still elusive: reports describe productions on the order of 5–40 g/kg dry substrate [59]. Some of the reports that describe higher yields, around 60%, actually use a support soaked with a nutritive solution [60,61]. A comparison between synthetic liquid and solid media showed that the process in SSF has a lower conversion (16%–23%) than that of the submerged process (around 60%). There is no definite explanation for the lower production in solid-state yet, but there seems to be an excess of phosphate or the lack of essential nutrients in most solid substrates tested for itaconic acid reduction. First obtained from the distillation of citric acid, since 1960 itaconic acid has been produced by fermentation of carbohydrates by A. terreus (Mitsuyasu et al., 2009; Hajian and Yusoff, 2015). Itaconic acid has been applied in a numerous range of industries with the larger producers in the world being the USA, Japan, Russia, and China (Global Industry Analysts Inc., 2011). During the 1950s, itaconic acid was used in industrial adhesives. In that period, itaconic acid was used at an industrial scale and large amounts of it were required. It has been employed as a detergent and in shampoos, as well as in plastics, elastomers, fiberglass, and in the coating process of carpets and book covers (Mitsuyasu et al., 2009; Jin et al., 2010). Besides that itaconic acid may also be used as artificial gems and synthetic glasses (Kin et al., 1998). Lately, the applications of the compound have reached the biomedical fields, such as the ophthalmic, dental and drug delivery fields (Hajian and Yusoff, 2015). Several studies have focused on improving and optimizing the production of itaconic acid from A. terreus in recent years. The biotechnological aspects involved in the metabolic pathways of itaconic acid and the production process parameters have been reviewed by Klement and Büchs (2013). Regarding the production, Amina et al. (2013) obtained itaconic acid using oil byproduct jatropha curcas seed cake, while Li et al. (2011), Huang et al. (2014), and van der Straat et al. (2014) studied the itaconic acid production by using genetic engineering techniques. In this process the relevant pathways have been revealed and new microbial production platforms designed, contributing to an enhanced production of itaconic acid. Furthermore, the reduction of its production costs is an important aspect for itaconic acid producers, either by optimizing processes or by using cost-favorable raw materials. Itaconic acid or methylene succinic acid is a high-value platform chemical that finds application in polymer industry, wastewater treatment, and ion-exchange chromatography sector (Willke and Vorlop, 2001). It can be converted to 3-methyltetrahydrofuran that has superior emission and combustion properties when compared to gasoline. Industrial production of itaconic acid is carried out with A. terreus using glucose as the sole carbon source. Itaconic acid production by metabolically engineered Neurospora crassa using lignocellulosic biomass was evaluated by Zhao et al. (2018). Cis-aconitic acid decarboxylase gene was heterologously expressed in N. crassa to synthesize itaconic acid. The engineered strain was capable of producing itaconic acid (20.41 mg/L) directly from lignocellulosic biomass. Itaconic acid production from biomass hydrolyzate using Aspergillus strains was reported by Jiménez-Quero et al. (2016). Acid and enzymatic hydrolyzates were evaluated for the production of itaconic acid. Maximum itaconic acid production (0.14%) was observed when submerged fermentation was carried out with corncob hydrolyzate by A. oryzae. The study reveals the possibility of SSF of biomass for the production of itaconic acid. Klement et al. (2012) evaluated itaconic acid production by Ustilago maydis from hemicellulosic fraction of pretreated beech wood. One of the advantages of U. maydis is that the strain grows as yeast-like single cells, and it can survive under high osmotic stress. The study revealed that under mild pretreatment conditions, U. maydis would be a promising candidate for itaconic acid production. Fine tuning of pretreatment conditions should be carried out for the improved production of itaconic acid. Production Itaconic Acid Itaconic acid is an example of a di-carbonic unsaturated acid. These acids are used as building blocks for large numbers of compounds, such as resins, paints, plastics, and synthetic fibers (acrylic plastic, super absorbants, and antiscaling agents) [67]. The CAC intermediate cis-aconitate is enzymatically processed by cis-aconitate dehycarboxylase (CadA) to produce itaconic acid [68]. At the industrial scale the most explored organism for the fermentative production of itaconic acid is Aspergillus terrus. The biosynthetic pathway of itaconic acid is like citrate biosynthesis, where the flux of the CAC is used in the catalytic conversion of cis-aconitate into itaconic acid. Thus citrate is synthesized from oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, while oxaloacetate is synthesized from pyruvate by anaplerosis, which starts from the pyruvate that is the end product of glycolysis (Fig. 13.17) [69]. Itaconic acid (IA) can be used: • As a comonomer in the polymerization of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) to promote the thermo-oxidative stabilization of polymer.[1] • In combination with acrylamide to form (poly[acrylamide-co-(itaconicacid)]) to synthesize biodegradable superabsorbent polymers.[2] • To synthesize biobased polyester composite in fabric industry. Itaconic acid is an unsaturated dicarbonic acid which has a high potential as a biochemical building block, because it can be used as a monomer for the production of a plethora of products including resins, plastics, paints, and synthetic fibers. Some Aspergillus species, like A. itaconicus and A. terreus, show the ability to synthesize this organic acid and A. terreus can secrete significant amounts to the media (>80 g/L). However, compared with the citric acid production process (titers >200 g/L) the achieved titers are still low and the overall process is expensive because purified substrates are required for optimal productivity. Itaconate is formed by the enzymatic activity of a cis-aconitate decarboxylase (CadA) encoded by the cadA gene in A. terreus. Cloning of the cadA gene into the citric acid producing fungus A. niger showed that it is possible to produce itaconic acid also in a different host organism. This review will describe the current status and recent advances in the understanding of the molecular processes leading to the biotechnological production of itaconic acid. Itaconic acid (2-methylidenebutanedioic acid) is an unsaturated di-carbonic acid. It has a broad application spectrum in the industrial production of resins and is used as a building block for acrylic plastics, acrylate latexes, super-absorbents, and anti-scaling agents (Willke and Vorlop, 2001; Okabe et al., 2009). Since the 1960s the production of itaconic acid is achieved by the fermentation with Aspergillus terreus on sugar containing media (Willke and Vorlop, 2001). Although also other microorganisms like Ustilago zeae (Haskins et al., 1955), U. maydis, Candida sp. (Tabuchi et al., 1981), and Rhodotorula sp. (Kawamura et al., 1981) were found to produce itaconic acid, A. terreus is still the dominant production host, because so far only bred strains of this species can reach levels of up to 80–86 g/L (Okabe et al., 2009; Kuenz et al., 2012). Since the 1990s, itaconic acid as a renewable material is attracting a lot of interest. Currently, the worldwide production capacity of itaconic acid is expected to be about 50 kt per year, facing a demand of about 30 kt (Shaw, 2013, Itaconix Corporation, personal communication). Especially, for the production of polymers it is of interest, because in the future it can function as a substitute for acrylic and methacrylic acid used for the production of plastics (Okabe et al., 2009). However, these applications require an even lower price of the starting material. The current knowledge about the biotechnological production of itaconic acid was recently reviewed (Willke and Vorlop, 2001; Okabe et al., 2009). The latter review covers the industrial production of itaconic acid and the applications of this product. Therefore, we focus in this report on the recent advances with an emphasis on the biochemistry of the process and new genetic engineering targets. For rational strain improvement, it is essential to understand the underlying biological concepts and biochemical pathways leading to the production of this important organic acid in microorganisms. Biosynthesis Pathway Kinoshita (1932) recognized that a filamentous fungus was able to produce itaconic acid and consequently described this species as A. itaconicus. The biosynthesis of itaconic acid was for a long time hotly debated, because it was not clear whether itaconic acid arises from a pathway including parts of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle or an alternative pathway via citramalate or the condensation of acetyl-CoA. Bentley and Thiessen (1957a) proposed a pathway for the biosynthesis of itaconic acid, which is depicted in Figure 1. Starting from a sugar substrate like glucose the carbon molecules are processed via glycolysis to pyruvate. Then the pathway is split and part of the carbon is metabolized to Acetyl-CoA releasing a carbon dioxide molecule. The other part is converted to oxaloacetate so that the previously released carbon dioxide molecule is again incorporated. In the first steps of the citric acid cycle, citrate and cis-aconitate are formed. In the last step, the only itaconic acid pathway dedicated step, cis-aconitate decarboxylase (CadA) forms itaconic acid releasing carbon dioxide. This pathway was confirmed by tracer experiments with 14C and 13C labeled substrates (Bentley and Thiessen, 1957a; Winskill, 1983; Bonnarme et al., 1995) and also the necessary enzymatic activities have been all determined (Jaklitsch et al., 1991). The formation of carboxylic acids, like citric and itaconic acid, involves the shuttling of intermediate metabolites between different intracellular compartments and utilizes the different enzymatic capabilities of the respective compartment. In case of itaconic acid the compartmentalization of the pathway was analyzed by fractionized cell extracts distinguishing the enzymatic activity of a mitochondrial from a cytosolic enzyme. It was found that the key enzyme of the pathway, CadA, is not located in the mitochondria but in the cytosol (Jaklitsch et al., 1991), whereas the enzymes preceding in the pathway, namely citrate synthase and aconitase, are found in the mitochondria. However, a residual level of aconitase and citrate synthase activity is also found in the cytosolic fraction. The proposed mechanism is that cis-aconitate is transported via the malate–citrate antiporter into the cytosol (Jaklitsch et al., 1991). However, so far it was not shown whether cis-aconitate makes use of the mitochondrial malate–citrate antiporter or uses another mitochondrial carrier protein to be translocated to the cytosol. Besides A. terreus, itaconic acid is known to be produced also by other fungi like U. zeae (Haskins et al., 1955), U. maydis (Haskins et al., 1955; Klement et al., 2012), Candida sp. (Tabuchi et al., 1981), and Rhodotorula sp. (Kawamura et al., 1981). No further investigations exist about the underlying reaction principles leading to itaconic acid formation in those species. However, recent evidence (Strelko et al., 2011; Voll et al., 2012) points into the direction that CadA activity constitutes the general pathway toward the formation of itaconic acid in nature. Very recently, itaconic acid was detected in mammalian cells, where it was found in macrophage-derived cells (Strelko et al., 2011). Those cells also possess a CadA activity and have the ability to form itaconic acid de novo. But, up to now no specific gene encoding this enzymatic activity was identified in mammalian cells. However, the physiological role of itaconic acid in mammalian cells is still unknown. Strelko et al. (2011) speculate on the role of itaconic acid as an inhibitor of metabolic pathways, because it is described as an enzymatic inhibitor. On the one hand, itaconic acid is known to inhibit isocitrate lyase (Williams et al., 1971; McFadden and Purohit, 1977), which is the crucial part of the glyoxylate shunt, and thus can act as an antibacterial agent. On the other hand, itaconic acid can inhibit fructose-6-phosphate 2-kinase (Sakai et al., 2004) and thus have a direct influence on the central carbon metabolism. In rats it was shown that a itaconate diet leads to a reduced visceral fat accumulation, because of a suppressed glycolytic flux (Sakai et al., 2004). Itaconic Acid Pathway Specific Enzymes and Genes The reaction catalyzed by the cis-aconitic acid decarboxylase was already described in 1957 (Bentley and Thiessen, 1957a,b). Subsequently performed 13C and 14C labeling experiments (Winskill, 1983; Bonnarme et al., 1995) confirmed the reaction scheme depicted in Figure 2. Itaconic acid is formed by an allylic rearrangement and decarboxylation from cis-aconitic acid removing either carbon C1 or C5 from the starting citric acid molecule (because of the symmetry of the molecule). Catabolization of Itaconic Acid Much is known about the biosynthesis of itaconic acid and the underlying enzymatic mechanisms, but for a complete biochemical picture of a certain metabolite, also the knowledge about its degradation is necessary. Unfortunately, the information about the degradation pathway of itaconic acid is sc

JOJOBA OIL
Jojoba oil is an excellent face and body moisturizer.
Jojoba oil conditions and smooths hair and beards.
Jojoba oil is an ideal carrier for essential oils and as a base for personal care products.


CAS NUMBER: 61789-91-1

EC NUMBER: 612-381-6

MOLECULAR FORMULA: -

MOLECULAR WEIGHT: -

INCI NAME: Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil


Jojoba oil is the liquid produced in the seed of the Simmondsia chinensis plant, a shrub, which is native to southern Arizona, southern California, and northwestern Mexico.
The oil makes up approximately 50% of the jojoba seed by weight.
The terms "Jojoba oil" and "jojoba wax" are often used interchangeably because the wax visually appears to be a mobile oil, but as a wax it is composed almost entirely (~97%) of mono-esters of long-chain fatty acids (wax ester) and alcohols (isopropyl jojobate), accompanied by only a tiny fraction of triglyceride esters.
This composition accounts for its extreme shelf-life stability and extraordinary resistance to high temperatures, compared with true vegetable oils.


Appearance of Jojoba oil:
Unrefined Jojoba oil appears as a clear golden liquid at room temperature with a slightly nutty odor.
Refined Jojoba oil is colorless and odorless. The melting point of jojoba oil is approximately 10 °C (50 °F) and the iodine value is approximately 80
Jojoba oil is relatively shelf-stable when compared with other vegetable oils mainly because it contains few triglycerides, unlike most other vegetable oils such as grape seed oil and coconut oil.
Jojoba oil has an oxidative stability index of approximately 60, which means that it is more shelf-stable than safflower oil, canola oil, almond oil, or squalene but less than castor oil and coconut oil.

Uses:
Being derived from a plant that is slow-growing and difficult to cultivate, Jojoba oil is mainly used for small-scale applications such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics
Overall, Jojoba oil is used as a replacement for whale oil and its derivatives, such as cetyl alcohol.

Jojoba oil is found as an additive in many cosmetic products, especially those marketed as being made from natural ingredients.
In particular, such products commonly containing jojoba are lotions and moisturizers, hair shampoos and conditioners.
The pure oil itself may also be used on skin, hair, or cuticles.

PREPATATION AND EXTRACTION OF JORDAPON SCI:
Presentation and extraction
Jordapon SCI can be prepared via the so-called “indirect route” by reacting higher carboxylic acid chlorides with sodium isethionate .
In industrial processes, Jordapon SCI is obtained via direct esterification of a coconut fatty acid mixture with sodium isethionate in the presence of catalysts.



SYNTHESIS OF JORDAPON SCI:
For this purpose, a coconut fatty acid mixture of different alkyl chain lengths Cn, typically C6 = 0.4% by weight; C8 = 7.6; C10 = 6.5; C12 = 47.7; C14 = 18.4; C16 = 8.9; C18 = 6.2; C18:1 = 3.7 in excess with sodium isethionate solution and zinc oxide under nitrogen at approx. 200 ° C.
After distilling off the water from the sodium isethionate solution and the water of reaction, a viscous mass is formed, which is liquefied again by adding paraffin wax.

After esterification with conversions >95%, stearic acid is added in order to lower the solidification point of the mixture below 50 °C.
When using branched fatty acids, the addition of paraffin as a consistency regulator is unnecessary and highly concentrated acyloxyethanesulfonates are obtained with high foaming properties, good hard water stability and also good water solubility (up to 30% at 20 °C).



PROPERTIES OF JORDAPON SCI:
Solid Jordapon SCI is available in flake, granule or powder form with approximately 85% active content (SCI-85).
There are also solid SCI-65 scales with around 30% fatty acid content.
Jordapon SCI is poorly soluble in water and is not long-term stable in solution at pH values ​​below 5 and above 8 due to its ester bond in the molecule.

Jordapon SCI is readily biodegradable with low affinity for bioaccumulation.
Jordapon SCI is slightly to moderately irritating to the skin and eyes.
Jordapon SCI exposure can cause minimal to mild skin irritation, although it is not skin sensitizing.



PROPERTIES OF JORDAPON SCI:
*mild to skin and eyes
*excellent foamers in hard or soft water
*impart a soft after feel to skin
*mild odor
*based upon fatty acids from natural, renewable coconut oil
completely biodegradable

WHO SHOULD USE JORDAPON SCI:
All skin types are welcome to use it.


HOW OFTEN CAN YOU USE JORDAPON SCI?
Jordapon SCI's fine to apply every day, but it shouldn't be left on for more than a few minutes at a time, like other surfactants, to avoid irritation.


JORDAPON SCI WORKS WELL WİTH:
Jordapon SCI's compatible with a wide range of different surfactants.
To make a thicker mixture, Jordapon SCI's frequently used with natural polymers like xanthan gum and carrageenan gum.


JORDAPON SCI DOES NOT WORK WİTH:
Jordapon SCI has no known negative interactions with other substances.


HOW TO USE JORDAPON SCI:
Jordapon SCI is added to your formulation's water phase.



MECHANISMS OF ACTION OF JORDAPON SCI:
The inability of Jordapon SCI’s micelles to contribute to skin penetration was one of the reasons for its mildness.
The Jordapon SCI micelles were found to be significantly larger than the skin’s aqueous pores, implying that the SCI micelles are unlikely to enter the skin and cause more discomfort.

Surfactant, often known as a surface-active agent, Jordapon SCI is a detergent-like chemical.
When added to a liquid, Jordapon SCI lowers the surface tension, making it easier to spread and moisten.
Surfactants break down these interactions as they absorb.

Because the intermolecular interactions between the surfactant and the water molecule are substantially lower than those between two water molecules, surface tension is reduced.

Micelles occur when the concentration of surfactant is high.
The critical micelle concentration is the point at which micelles begin to form.
The primary function of surfactants is to reduce surface and interfacial tension while also stabilising the interface.



BENEFITS OF JORDAPON SCI:
Jordapon SCI has a strong foaming ability and produces a stable, rich, and velvety lather that does not dehydrate the skin, making it perfect for use in water-free products.
This high-performance surfactant, Jordapon SCI, is widely used in liquid shampoos and bar shampoos, liquid soaps and bar soaps, bath butters and bath bombs, and shower gels, to name a few foamy items.

This gently fragrant and conditioning washing agent is gentle enough for baby’s sensitive skin, making Jordapon SCI an excellent surfactant for makeup, personal care products, and natural toiletries.
Its emulsifying property, which allows water and oil to mix, makes Jordapon SCI a common ingredient in soaps and shampoos since it promotes dirt to adhere to them, making it simpler to remove.
Jordapon SCI's luxurious foaming capacity and conditioning properties leave hair and skin feeling moisturised, soft, and silky smooth.



IS JORDAPON SCI NATURAL?
Jordapon SCI cannot be considered natural.
Jordapon SCI is not known to naturally occur in plants, minerals, or animals.
While one part of Jordapon SCI's synthesis does come from coconut oil, the other half is derived from sodium bisulfate and ethylene oxide.



PROPERTIES OF JORDAPON SCI::
Jordapon SCI, is a substance naturally derived from coconut oil.
Jordapon SCI contains fatty acids and the sulfonic (isethionic acid).
To maintain its properties, Jordapon SCI requires proper storage conditions – in a cool place, away from light and heat.

Jordapon SCI is safe for external applications.
Jordapon SCI has been a subject of many research studies and has not been found to cause any significant adverse effects.
Jordapon SCI is considered safe for use in cosmetic formulations.

However, to make sure no allergic reaction occurs, a quick test may be conducted: Place a small amount of the product containing Jordapon SCI on your hand and wait for a moment, looking for any significant changes.
If no irritation develops, Jordapon SCI can be used as instructed.



STRENGTHS OF JORDAPON SCI:
Jordapon SCI is a wonderful, gentle lather.


WEAKNESSES OF JORDAPON SCI:
The larger shapes of Jordapon SCI can be a pain to melt down.
Jordapon SCI can hydrolyze if it’s in a hydrous (liquid) formulation with a pH below 6, causing formulations to become unstable.



ALTERNATIVES AND SUBSTITUTIONS OF JORDAPON SCI:
As a bare minimum you’ll need a different solid anionic surfactant.
You’ll also need to watch the active surfactant matter (you may need to use a different quantity of the new surfactant to get the same ASM level in the end product) and the pH of the final product.
Keep in mind that most solid anionic surfactants are not as gentle as Jordapon SCI.
Two options to consider would be SLSa and Sodium (C14-16) olefin sulfonate (Bio-Terge AS90).



DO YOU NEED JORDAPON SCI?
Jordapon SCI depends on what you want to make!
If you primarily want to make shampoo bars and other solid cleansing bars, I highly recommend Jordapon SCI.
If you are more interested in foaming bath products (bath salts, bath bombs, bath truffles, etc.), I’d probably choose Sodium Lauryl
Sulfoacetate (SLSa) over Jordapon SCI as it’s far more water soluble.
If your primary aim to create liquid surfactant products, I’d choose liquid surfactants and/or solid surfactants that are more water soluble (Sodium Coco Sulfate [SCS], Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate [SLMI]) than Jordapon SCI is.



SOLUBILITY OF JORDAPON SCI:
Jordapon SCI is water soluble, but not very enthusiastically.
Jordapon SCI's cousin, Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate (SLMI), is far more water soluble.



WHY DO WE USE JORDAPON SCI IN FORMULATIONS?
Jordapon SCI offers beautiful, gentle “lace glove” lather to our products.
Jordapon SCI’s also naturally acidic, so it helps our end products have a skin-friendly pH with less (or no) adjusting.



BENEFITS OF JORDAPON SCI:
*Good foam improver and stabilizer
*Very mild and non-drying
*Plant based
*Outstanding (sole) surfactant for bar soaps and syndets
*Easy to handle and formulate
*Packaging Description



BENEFITS OF JORDAPON SCI FOR SKIN:
Jordapon SCI offers benefits for nearly all skin types, particularly those with sensitive or dry skin types.
Some of these benefits include:

*Produces a silky lather:
Due to the fact that it's a surfactant, Jordapon SCI lowers the surface tension of the water, allowing the product to spread easier across the face.
In hair care products, Jordapon SCI gently cleanses hair while removing excess oil to reduce tangles and frizz, as well as allow the products to lather.

*Adding hydration and moisture:
According to Spinnato, Jordapon SCI exhibits a high foaming ability producing a stable, rich, and velvety lather that does not dehydrate the skin.
Instead of drying out the skin like other surfactants, Jordapon SCI'll leave your skin feeling hydrated and moisturized sans any irritation, redness, or dryness.

*Gently lifting away dirt, oil, and another build-up:
By bonding water and oil, Jordapon SCI has the ability to help get rid of any makeup residue, dirt, or grime that's been sitting on your face, body, or scalp all day.
This means that Jordapon SCI is an agent that helps remove the dirt and oils with the emulsification of the product.

*Preventing damage to the skin barrier:
Unlike other harsher surfactants, Jordapon SCI is kinder on the skin.
In return, explains Graf, Jordapon SCI cleanses the skin gently without damaging the moisture barrier or taking away any hydration.



SIDE EFFECTS OF JORDAPON SCI:
As of now, there are no known side effects associated with using Jordapon SCI.
However, if you have a coconut allergy, you should steer clear of the ingredient.
Since Jordapon SCI is derived from coconut oil, it should be avoided by anyone who has a coconut allergy.

Another thing to note:
If you overuse the ingredient, Jordapon SCI may be drying, particularly for those with natural or thicker textured hair types.
Jordapon SCI may strip the hair of its natural oils if you use it too often on dryer hair types, so make sure to proceed with caution.



HOW TO USE JORDAPON SCI:
Due to its gentle nature, Jordapon SCI can be used every single day.
For a body wash, opt to use Jordapon SCI twice a day.
If Jordapon SCI's a cleanser, you should only be using it two times a day at maximum.

Before using Jordapon SCI, make sure the bottle has no more than 50% SCI, advises Graf, as it can be drying.
Jordapon SCI arrives within shampoos, body washes, cleansers, and soap bars, so incorporating it into your routine is truly an effortless product that'll reap major rewards.



RECOMMENDED USAGE OF JORDAPON SCI:
Jordapon SCI is safe for regular use when formulated within the recommended concentrations for personal care products.
The Cosmetics Ingredient Review (CIR), an independent panel of expert scientists responsible for evaluating the safety of cosmetic ingredients, has established guidelines for the safe use of Jordapon SCI in various types of products.
Jordapon SCI can be used daily, but it is recommended to only be used twice on hair per day to maintain follicle health.

KATHON 893 MW is also compatible with KATHON 886 MW.STORAGE AND HANDLINGThe expected shelf life for this product is 2 years under normal storage conditions. This product, like most chemicals, should be stored out of direct sun light in an area where the temperature is between 40ºF (4.4ºC) and 110ºF (43ºC).SAFETY DATAThis product is very hazardous and proper handling and storage is critical. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Prior to using this product, please consult the Material Safety Data Sheet for instructions regarding safe handling. EPA approved, fully tested and widely used/accepted standard of the industry Can be used in a maintenance dose or in a kill dose Quickly disperses for immediate impact on fungi Compatible with KATHON 886 MW, will not deactivate any active ingredients in the full-spectrum biocide. Soluble, synthetic, and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids or coolants provide an excellent environment for the growth of various microorganisms, including bacteria, mold, and yeast. If allowed to grow, these organisms can have detrimental effects on the fluids. For example, bacteria, which can grow very quickly, can destroy the integrity of the fluid by discoloration, destroying lubricity characteristics, and causing emulsions to split. Bacteria can also reduce the pH of the fluid, which can promote corrosion. Some forms of bacteria have objectionable odors. Fungi typically grow more slowly than bacteria, but can form large masses which clog filters and lines and in some cases lead to system shutdown; fungi also generate foul odors and can cause corrosion. The increased use of synthetic fluids over the past few years has led to an even greater need for the enhanced fungal control that Kathon 893 MW Biocide can provide.

The solubility and stability of the active ingredient may be affected when the temperature is lowered to 0°C or increased to 60°C. • Kathon 893 MW Biocide is soluble in methanol, ethanol, propylene glycol, acetone, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform, butyl Cellosolve, corn oil, and mineral oil. • The solubility of Kathon 893 MW in toluene is 25% w/v. • The solubility of Kathon 893 MW in water at 25°C is 480 ppm (active ingredient), although this may be increased by using suitable surfactants and emulsifiers. • Kathon 893 MW is insoluble in heptane. Compatibility In concentrate and use-dilution metalworking fluids, the compatibility of Kathon 893 MW Biocide is concentration-dependent and varies from formulation to formulation. It is compatible with most metalworking fluid additives, including surfactants and amines. Compatibility with amines may vary by the type, concentration and pH. Strong reducing agents, such as sulfides, mercaptans, bisulfites and metabisulfites, or strong oxidizing agents, such as hypochlorites, may affect the efficacy of Kathon 893 MW. Laboratory or small-scale tests are recommended in order to evaluate Kathon 893 MW compatibility in use-dilution or concentrate metalworking fluids prior to commercialization. Kathon 893 MW is compatible with most other metalworking fluid biocides, including KATHON 886 MW and KATHON CC (methylchlorosiothiazolone), KORDEK™ LX5000 (methylisothiazolone), ROCIMA™ BT 2S biocides (benzisothiazolone), triazine and formaldehyde-releasers, IPBC (iodopropynylbutylcarbamate) and sodium Pyrithione. Stability In-Use Stability: Kathon 893 MW Biocide has excellent stability in end use dilutions of metalworking fluids. It is stable over a wide pH range (4-10) in water and in metalworking fluid systems. Concentrate Stability: Kathon 893 MW Biocide stability, in metalworking fluid concentrates, is variable. We recommend checking stability and performance before commercialization of products. Dow has several recommended stabilizers to improve stability and compatibility in many types of concentrates. Storage Stability: In general, the storage stability of the Kathon 893 MW Biocide product is excellent. The shelf life of the product is nominally twelve years at 25°C. It is strongly recommended, however, that both the stability and compatibility of Kathon 893 MW Biocide in metalworking fluid formulations or systems be thoroughly examined before commercialization. Method of Addition Kathon 893 MW Biocide should be directly dispensed into metalworking fluid concentrates or use-dilution metalworking fluids using a metering pump or other point-of-use device where possible and uniformLy dispersed throughout the fluid. Fluid Concentrate Kathon 893 MW Biocide should be added to metalworking fluid concentrates at a level that ensures the final use-dilution fluid will contain 55 to 167 ppm of product (25 to 75 ppm active ingredient). Kathon 893 MW stability in a given concentrate should be determined prior to commercialization. Contact your local Dow representative for assistance in selecting one of several recommended stabilizers to enhance the performance and compatibility of Kathon 893 MW in your metalworking fluid concentrate. Use-Dilution Fluid We highly recommend grossly contaminated systems be cleaned before treatment is begun. Initial Dose: For a noticeably fouled system, add 0.47 to 1.44 lbs (7 to 21 fl oz) of Kathon 893 MW Biocide per 1,000 gallons of fluid. This will provide 25 to 75 ppm active ingredient. Repeat until control is achieved. Subsequent Dose: For maintenance of a non-fouled system, add 0.09 to 0.58 lbs (1.3 to 8.6 fl oz) of Kathon 893 MW Biocide per 1,000 gallons of fluid every four weeks. This will provide 5 to 30 ppm active ingredient. A higher dose range and/or increased frequency of treatment may be required, depending upon the rate of dilution of the preservative with the makeup fluid, the nature and severity of contamination, level of control required, filtration effectiveness, system design, etc. General Practices When Using Kathon 893 Biocides • Know the size of your system and dose at the recommended use levels. • To improve performance and longevity, add Kathon 893 MW Biocide on the clean side of the filters. It may be necessary to occasionally add Kathon 893 MW to the dirty side of the filters if large populations of microorganisms are detected there. • Minimize contamination: – Eliminate or minimize dead spots – Disconnect unused portions of the system – Do not throw trash in sumps • Always remember to triple rinse (or equivalent) empty containers to avoid incidental contact. • Post placard with safety information and deactivation protocol near biocide handling area. Additional guidelines for maximizing the performance of Kathon 893 MW Biocide are as follows: • Kathon 893 MW stability and performance is improved with lower pH. Whenever possible, maintain the pH of system below pH 9.2. Lower pH also makes amines and amine-containing compounds less aggressive. • For systems with pH greater than 9.5, we strongly recommend determination of biological efficacy and chemical stability prior to use. • Avoid adding highly basic additives (alkaline materials with pH of 10-12) immediately prior to or after adding Kathon 893 MW to your system. If a highly basic additive must be added, allow sufficient time (at least 30 minutes) between additions. Minimize levels of diethanolamine (DEA) in your system. If possible use 99% triethanolamine (TEA) or monoethanolamine (MEA) instead of DEA, and use these at as low a level as possible. • Always add Kathon 893 MW directly to the metalworking fluid sump. Never use Kathon 893 MW in a spray bottle. • Avoid charging Kathon 893 MW in high temperature zones, since increasing temperatures accelerate other degradation effects. Ideally, add Kathon 893 MW to the fluid below 60°C (140°F). • Avoid adding Kathon 893 MW and incompatible corrosion inhibitors directly to the tank at the same time. How Does Kathon 893 MW Biocide Work? Kathon 893 MW Biocide utilizes a two-step mechanism involving rapid growth inhibition leading to a loss of cell viability. Growth inhibition is the result of rapid disruption of the central metabolic pathways of the cell by inhibition of several specific enzymes, including dehydrogenases. The critical enzymes which are affected are associated with the Krebs cycle, nutrient metabolism and energy generation. The key physiological activities that are rapidly inhibited in microbial cells are respiration (oxygen consumption), energy generation (ATP synthesis), and growth (assimilation). Many of these key enzymes are present in both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms, which explains why Kathon 893 MW is such a broad spectrum biocide. Inhibition of cellular activity and growth is rapid (within minutes), whereas cell death (cidal activity) is observed after several hours’ contact. In general, the higher the concentration of biocide, the shorter the contact time required for more complete kill. Cell death results from the progressive loss of protein thiols in the cell from one of multiple pathways. As cell metabolism is disrupted, free radicals are produced which also results in cell death. This unique mechanism results in the broad spectrum of activity of Kathon 893 MW Biocide, low use levels for microbial control, and difficulty in attaining resistance by mutation. See technical bulletin (CS-632) for more detailed information. How Rapidly Does Kathon 893 MW Biocide Work? Within minutes after addition of Kathon 893 MW Biocide to a metalworking fluid sump, the metabolic activity of the microorganisms in the system shuts down. This includes cellular respiration (oxygen uptake), growth, energy generation, and nutrient uptake. The microorganisms, although still alive, are no longer able to reproduce or metabolize metalworking fluid components. After 24 to 48 hours of contact with a lethal dose of the biocide, most of the microorganisms have been killed. How Long Does Kathon 893 MW Biocide Last? Kathon 893 MW Biocide has excellent in-use stability and generally retains its antimicrobial efficacy in metalworking fluid systems for 2 to 4 weeks. Variables such as degree of fluid contamination, effectiveness of the filtration system, system turnover time, compatibility between the microbicide and the metalworking fluid components, and other system additives involved, can affect the life of the microbicide in a system. Is Kathon 893 MW Biocide Effective in Reducing Fungal Biofilms? YES. Kathon 893 MW Biocide has been shown to reduce microbial fouling and prevent biofilm development in metalworking fluid systems. The benefits of reduced fungal biofouling include improved system performance, reduced filter plugging, reduced biocorrosion, and improved microbial control. Is Kathon 893 MW Biocide Effective When Used in Concentrates? YES. Kathon 893 MW Biocide may be used in certain fluid concentrates to provide efficacy in the final use dilutions. Although Kathon 893 MW stability may not be suitable for all concentrates, we have had success with the biocide alone or in combination with one of our recommended stabilizers. How Can I Improve Kathon 893 MW Biocide Stability in Concentrates? We recommend testing Kathon 893 MW Biocide in concentrates prior to commercialization. Dow technical staff can assist you in formulating products. We have years of experience and a range of recommended stabilizers to prolong the lifetime and improve compatibility of Kathon 893 MW in concentrates. Contact your sales representative for assistance. Anti-Microbial Properties of Kathon 893 MW Biocide Initial determinations of the efficacy of any biocidal product are made via minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) measurements. The MIC test yields valuable information about the product’s inherent antimicrobial efficacy and spectrum of activity. The MIC for any product is the lowest level at which the active ingredient inhibits the growth of various microorganisms. This method is a useful tool for screening antimicrobial agents under standardized laboratory conditions, in nutrient-rich growth conditions. In interpreting the data, remember that low values correspond to high activity. Table 2 indicates that Kathon 893 MW Biocide possesses outstanding antimicrobial activity against a broad range of fungi (both yeasts and molds). Kathon 893 MW has very low MIC values for most of the fungi tested and there is no gap in the spectrum of activity among the organisms tested. Kathon 893 MW Biocide was evaluated as a tankside fungicide in a wide variety of metalworking fluids, including synthetics, semi-synthetics, and soluble-oil fluids. In a oneweek eradication study described below, a total of 16 fluids from various manufacturers in the United States, Europe, and Japan were tested. Test Procedure The actual test systems were run in volumes of 50 mL, which consisted of 40 mL of virgin metalworking fluid (generally diluted 20:1) and 10 mL of the adapted inoculum as described above. Prior to inoculation, the fluids containing fungal growth were blended for two minutes at high speed in a Waring blender. Most samples contained 0.5 g of iron filings. At time zero, the following active levels of Kathon 893 MW Biocide were added: 5 ppm, 10 ppm, 25 ppm, 50 ppm, 75 ppm, and 100 ppm. Additionally, samples were run containing 50 ppm and 100 ppm active sodium Pyrithione. Once fluids were dosed with biocide and inoculated, they were mechanically shaken for one week and plated on sabouraud dextrose agar. Results Kathon 893 MW Biocide was completely effective in all fluids at levels ranging from 5 to 75 ppm active ingredient. In all but one of the fluids, it was effective at concentrations in the range of 5 to 50 ppm active ingredient. In synthetic fluids, which are prone to fungal growth, Kathon 893 MW was effective in the range of 5 to 10 ppm. Sodium Pyrithione was not very effective at recommended use levels of 50 to 100 ppm active ingredient. A long-term study was done to compare the fungicidal activity of Kathon 893 MW Biocide and sodium Pyrithione in a synthetic metalworking fluid, use-dilution 1:30. The concentration of Kathon 893 MW studied ranged from 10 to 75 ppm active ingredient and the concentration of sodium pyrithione ranged from 50 to 200 ppm active ingredient. Test Procedure The test samples were inoculated at zero time and again every two weeks with fungal inoculum isolated from naturally contaminated synthetic metalworking fluid and maintained in the same fluid employed in the test. Results Results, provided in Table 4, show that particularly high fungal counts were not achieved in the untreated control for this particular fluid (note: Due to the inherent mycelial clumping common to most fungal species when growing in liquid substrates, plate counts of colonyforming units carried out on the aliquots of the liquid are not always indicative of the degree of fungal contamination present). In spite of this, sodium Pyrithione allowed fungal survival at all levels at which it was tested. Kathon 893 MW Biocide, however, exhibited complete fungal control at significantly lower levels. There is usually a need to control both bacteria and fungi in metalworking fluid systems. Bacteria and fungi, however, are not always controlled by one biocide. For example, Kathon 893 886 MW Biocide is a broad-spectrum biocide that controls the growth of bacteria and fungi, including molds and yeast, in many metalworking fluid systems and therefore can usually be used alone. Some fluids, however, contain aggressive components which may decrease the stability of KATHON 886 MW and therefore reduce its efficacy for controlling microorganisms. If such fluids are especially prone to fungal growth, use of KATHON 893 MW in conjunction with KATHON 886 MW, KORDEK™ LX5000, or ROCIMA™ BT 2S biocides is recommended. These products are completely compatible and provide excellent cost performance. Kathon 893 MW is also compatible with other bactericides, including triazine and formaldehyde releasers, and other fungicides. The use of Kathon 893 MW in the same system as KATHON 886 MW, KORDEK LX5000, and a number of other biocides are covered in several Dow patents. The efficacy of Kathon 893 MW Biocide in a use-dilution synthetic metalworking fluid was evaluated under actual use conditions during a five-month field trial in a 200,000-gallon system. At the start of the trial, fungal mats covered the walls of the flumes and weirs of the system and filters which required constant maintenance to prevent clogging (see Figure 1). Fungal slime was also present on and around many of the machines supplied by the system. The bacterial population of the fluid was between 103 and 104 cfu/mL (colonyforming units per mL), and the fungal population was between 380 and 790 cfu/mL. During the first 45 days of the trial, the level of Kathon 893 MW Biocide was maintained at approximately 25 ppm active ingredient. For the remaining 3 months of the trial, the level of Kathon 893 MW was maintained between 30 ppm and 10 ppm active ingredient. The results of the trial showed that the regimen of Kathon 893 MW addition chosen provided essentially complete control of fungal organisms in the fluid itself and also destroyed the fungal organisms comprising the mats covering the walls of the flumes and weirs of the system. These fungal mats lost their integrity and gradually sloughed off the surfaces to which they were attached (see Figure 2). The microbial slime present on and around the machines also disappeared. The bacterial populations of the fluid remained in the range of 102 to 104 cfu/mL, throughout the trial. In addition, the amount of makeup fluid required to maintain the desired characteristics of the fluid was reduced significantly (42 percent) during the trial. Handling The procedures used for handling concentrated biocide solutions are similar to those used for handling concentrated acids and alkalis. The purpose is to prevent all eye and skin contact, including inhalation of mists, and thereby prevent possible injury and sensitization. Personnel handling Kathon 893 MW Biocide as supplied should always wear protective clothing, which includes chemical splash goggles, an impervious apron or rain suit, and impervious rubber gloves. We recommend that employees working with Kathon 893 MW as supplied thoroughly wash with soap and water at the end of a shift or prior to eating, drinking, smoking, or applying cosmetics. Special care should be taken to avoid contamination of surfaces or materials that may later be handled by unprotected personnel, for example, door and tap handles. Storage Kathon 893 MW Biocide is packaged in polyethylene or polyethylene-lined containers. It should not be stored in unlined metal containers since it is a corrosive material. Normal recommended storage temperatures are in the range of 10° to 25°C (50° to 80°F). Shelf life ~12 years (packaging should be evaluated and replaced as needed for transport compliance over the duration of product shelf life). Storage at >120°F for extended periods of time can result in degradation of the active ingredient. Decontamination Solutions Kathon 893 MW Biocide can be decontaminated with a 5% solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) containing 2-5% sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3 ). Solutions should be freshly prepared. Employees preparing or handling decontamination solutions should wear chemical splash goggles, an impervious apron or rain suit, and impervious rubber gloves. Note: Do not use decontamination solution to treat skin, eyes or clothing which have come in contact with Kathon 893 MW. Decontamination of Equipment Equipment used in the handling of Kathon 893 MW Biocide, such as mix tanks, lines, pumps, etc., must be decontaminated before carrying out maintenance or used for other service. To decontaminate this equipment, estimate the volume of Kathon 893 MW remaining in the well-drained system. Prepare 10 volumes of decontamination solution per volume of Kathon 893 MW (45%) and circulate the mixture throughout the equipment. Be certain that the Kathon 893 MW and decontamination solution mix well. Wait at least 30 minutes to ensure complete reaction. Drain and rinse with clean water or detergent solution. Decontamination solution runoffs should be drained to a chemical sewer unless prohibited by state or local regulations. Drips, minor spills and exposed wet areas should be cleaned up promptly with the hypochlorite/bicarbonate mixture. Contaminated surfaces should be swabbed with decontamination solution and allowed to stand for 30 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with water. Decontaminated solutions should be drained to a chemical sewer unless prohibited by state or local regulations. Note: Because of the high level of activity of Kathon 893 MW, a relatively small quantity could have a damaging impact on the effectiveness of waste treatment bio-systems. Laboratory or plant spills should be decontaminated with decontamination solution before being released to a biological waste treatment system. Cleanup of Spills Procedures provided in the Safe Handling Section should be followed when cleaning spills of Kathon 893 MW Biocide. 1. Wear impervious rubber gloves, chemical splash goggles, protective clothing and overshoes. 2. Dike and adsorb the spilled material on an inert solid, such as clay or vermiculite or with spill control pillows. 3. Transfer the adsorbent or pillows and surrounding surface soil into a pail or drum. This container should be no more than two-thirds full. 4. Treat the contents of the container with 10 volumes of decontamination solution per estimated volume of spilled Kathon 893 MW. 5. Treat the surrounding spill area with excess decontamination solution. Flush after a minimum of 30 minutes into a chemical sewer. 6. Do not discharge spills and cleaning runoffs into open bodies of water, because of a potential adverse impact on the environment. 7. Carefully remove the contaminated gloves and place them in the container (peel off the gloves by pulling on the outside of the glove sleeve turning them inside out as they are removed). After 48 hours, seal the container and dispose of it by landfilling in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.

KATHON 893 MW
KATHON 893 MW Biocide Metalworking Fluid Fungicide for Water-Based Cutting Fluids EPA Reg. No.: 707-195 Soluble, synthetic, and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids or coolants provide an excellent environment for the growth of various microorganisms, including bacteria, mold, and yeast. If allowed to grow, these organisms can have detrimental effects on the fluids. For example, bacteria, which can grow very quickly, can destroy the integrity of the fluid by discoloration, destroying lubricity characteristics, and causing emulsions to split. Bacteria can also reduce the pH of the fluid, which can promote corrosion. Some forms of bacteria have objectionable odors. Fungi typically grow more slowly than bacteria, but can form large masses which clog filters and lines and in some cases lead to system shutdown; fungi also generate foul odors and can cause corrosion. The increased use of synthetic fluids over the past few years has led to an even greater need for the enhanced fungal control that KATHON 893 MW Biocide can provide. For Tankside and Concentrate KATHON 893 MW Biocide is a broad-spectrum fungicide that has been recommended and widely used for tankside control of fungi in metalworking central systems. KATHON 893 MW is also an effective fungicide for use in many metalworking fluid concentrates with the appropriate stabilizer package. Due to the wide variations in metalworking fluid formulations, laboratory or small-scale tests are recommended to evaluate KATHON 893 MW in usedilution and concentrate metalworking fluids before they are commercialized. KATHON 893 MW is a highly effective, industrial fungicide that exhibits excellent fungistatic and fungicidal activity against fungi, including yeasts and mold, and Gram-Positive bacteria, and limited activity against Gram-Negative bacteria. Commonly known as octhilinone, 2-n-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one is the active ingredient of KATHON 893 MW. It is supplied as a 45 percent active liquid in propylene glycol. The information in this brochure has been compiled to familiarize the reader with KATHON 893 MW technology, to communicate the tremendous benefits of this product, and to provide directions for safe and efficient use of the product. By following the precautions outlined in this brochure, on the product label, and on the Dow Safety Data Sheet (SDS), KATHON 893 MW can be safely handled.

It may be necessary to occasionally add KATHON 893 MW to the dirty side of the filters if large populations of microorganisms are detected there. • Minimize contamination: – Eliminate or minimize dead spots – Disconnect unused portions of the system – Do not throw trash in sumps • Always remember to triple rinse (or equivalent) empty containers to avoid incidental contact. • Post placard with safety information and deactivation protocol near biocide handling area. Additional guidelines for maximizing the performance of KATHON 893 MW Biocide are as follows: • KATHON 893 MW stability and performance is improved with lower pH. Whenever possible, maintain the pH of system below pH 9.2. Lower pH also makes amines and amine-containing compounds less aggressive. • For systems with pH greater than 9.5, we strongly recommend determination of biological efficacy and chemical stability prior to use. • Avoid adding highly basic additives (alkaline materials with pH of 10-12) immediately prior to or after adding KATHON 893 MW to your system. If a highly basic additive must be added, allow sufficient time (at least 30 minutes) between additions. Minimize levels of diethanolamine (DEA) in your system. If possible use 99% triethanolamine (TEA) or monoethanolamine (MEA) instead of DEA, and use these at as low a level as possible. • Always add KATHON 893 MW directly to the metalworking fluid sump. Never use KATHON 893 MW in a spray bottle. • Avoid charging KATHON 893 MW in high temperature zones, since increasing temperatures accelerate other degradation effects. Ideally, add KATHON 893 MW to the fluid below 60°C (140°F). • Avoid adding KATHON 893 MW and incompatible corrosion inhibitors directly to the tank at the same time. How Does KATHON 893 MW Biocide Work? KATHON 893 MW Biocide utilizes a two-step mechanism involving rapid growth inhibition leading to a loss of cell viability. Growth inhibition is the result of rapid disruption of the central metabolic pathways of the cell by inhibition of several specific enzymes, including dehydrogenases. The critical enzymes which are affected are associated with the Krebs cycle, nutrient metabolism and energy generation. The key physiological activities that are rapidly inhibited in microbial cells are respiration (oxygen consumption), energy generation (ATP synthesis), and growth (assimilation). Many of these key enzymes are present in both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms, which explains why KATHON 893 MW is such a broad spectrum biocide. Inhibition of cellular activity and growth is rapid (within minutes), whereas cell death (cidal activity) is observed after several hours’ contact. In general, the higher the concentration of biocide, the shorter the contact time required for more complete kill. Cell death results from the progressive loss of protein thiols in the cell from one of multiple pathways. As cell metabolism is disrupted, free radicals are produced which also results in cell death. This unique mechanism results in the broad spectrum of activity of KATHON 893 MW Biocide, low use levels for microbial control, and difficulty in attaining resistance by mutation. See technical bulletin (CS-632) for more detailed information. How Rapidly Does KATHON 893 MW Biocide Work? Within minutes after addition of KATHON 893 MW Biocide to a metalworking fluid sump, the metabolic activity of the microorganisms in the system shuts down. This includes cellular respiration (oxygen uptake), growth, energy generation, and nutrient uptake. The microorganisms, although still alive, are no longer able to reproduce or metabolize metalworking fluid components. After 24 to 48 hours of contact with a lethal dose of the biocide, most of the microorganisms have been killed. How Long Does KATHON 893 MW Biocide Last? KATHON 893 MW Biocide has excellent in-use stability and generally retains its antimicrobial efficacy in metalworking fluid systems for 2 to 4 weeks. Variables such as degree of fluid contamination, effectiveness of the filtration system, system turnover time, compatibility between the microbicide and the metalworking fluid components, and other system additives involved, can affect the life of the microbicide in a system. Is KATHON 893 MW Biocide Effective in Reducing Fungal Biofilms? YES. KATHON 893 MW Biocide has been shown to reduce microbial fouling and prevent biofilm development in metalworking fluid systems. The benefits of reduced fungal biofouling include improved system performance, reduced filter plugging, reduced biocorrosion, and improved microbial control. Is KATHON 893 MW Biocide Effective When Used in Concentrates? YES. KATHON 893 MW Biocide may be used in certain fluid concentrates to provide efficacy in the final use dilutions. Although KATHON 893 MW stability may not be suitable for all concentrates, we have had success with the biocide alone or in combination with one of our recommended stabilizers. How Can I Improve KATHON 893 MW Biocide Stability in Concentrates? We recommend testing KATHON 893 MW Biocide in concentrates prior to commercialization. Dow technical staff can assist you in formulating products. We have years of experience and a range of recommended stabilizers to prolong the lifetime and improve compatibility of KATHON 893 MW in concentrates. Contact your sales representative for assistance. Anti-Microbial Properties of KATHON 893 MW Biocide Initial determinations of the efficacy of any biocidal product are made via minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) measurements. The MIC test yields valuable information about the product’s inherent antimicrobial efficacy and spectrum of activity. The MIC for any product is the lowest level at which the active ingredient inhibits the growth of various microorganisms. This method is a useful tool for screening antimicrobial agents Efficacy Data Page under standardized laboratory conditions, in nutrient-rich growth conditions. In interpreting the data, remember that low values correspond to high activity. Table 2 indicates that KATHON 893 MW Biocide possesses outstanding antimicrobial activity against a broad range of fungi (both yeasts and molds). KATHON 893 MW has very low MIC values for most of the fungi tested and there is no gap in the spectrum of activity among the organisms tested.

Store away from direct sunlight. Decontamination and Spill Procedures Decontamination Solutions KATHON 893 MW Biocide can be decontaminated with a 5% solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) containing 2-5% sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3 ). Solutions should be freshly prepared. Employees preparing or handling decontamination solutions should wear chemical splash goggles, an impervious apron or rain suit, and impervious rubber gloves. Note: Do not use decontamination solution to treat skin, eyes or clothing which have come in contact with KATHON 893 MW. Decontamination of Equipment Equipment used in the handling of KATHON 893 MW Biocide, such as mix tanks, lines, pumps, etc., must be decontaminated before carrying out maintenance or used for other service. To decontaminate this equipment, estimate the volume of KATHON 893 MW remaining in the well-drained system. Prepare 10 volumes of decontamination solution per volume of KATHON 893 MW (45%) and circulate the mixture throughout the equipment. Be certain that the KATHON 893 MW and decontamination solution mix well. Wait at least 30 minutes to ensure complete reaction. Drain and rinse with clean water or detergent solution. Decontamination solution runoffs should be drained to a chemical sewer unless prohibited by state or local regulations. Drips, minor spills and exposed wet areas should be cleaned up promptly with the hypochlorite/bicarbonate mixture. Contaminated surfaces should be swabbed with decontamination solution and allowed to stand for 30 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with water. Decontaminated solutions should be drained to a chemical sewer unless prohibited by state or local regulations. Note: Because of the high level of activity of KATHON 893 MW, a relatively small quantity could have a damaging impact on the effectiveness of waste treatment bio-systems. Laboratory or plant spills should be decontaminated with decontamination solution before being released to a biological waste treatment system. Cleanup of Spills Procedures provided in the Safe Handling Section should be followed when cleaning spills of KATHON 893 MW Biocide. 1. Wear impervious rubber gloves, chemical splash goggles, protective clothing and overshoes. 2. Dike and adsorb the spilled material on an inert solid, such as clay or vermiculite or with spill control pillows. 3. Transfer the adsorbent or pillows and surrounding surface soil into a pail or drum. This container should be no more than two-thirds full. 4. Treat the contents of the container with 10 volumes of decontamination solution per estimated volume of spilled KATHON 893 MW. 5. Treat the surrounding spill area with excess decontamination solution. Flush after a minimum of 30 minutes into a chemical sewer. 6. Do not discharge spills and cleaning runoffs into open bodies of water, because of a potential adverse impact on the environment. 7. Carefully remove the contaminated gloves and place them in the container (peel off the gloves by pulling on the outside of the glove sleeve turning them inside out as they are removed). After 48 hours, seal the container and dispose of it by landfilling in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.

*Treatments for nutrition and restructuring.
*Treatments for eyelashes with make-up.
*Shampoos and conditioners for hair that is prone to breakage.
*Hair items that are ideal for your hair.



APPLICATION OF KERATIN:
Keratin is for use by adults over 16 years of age and before application, test it on a small area of ​​your skin to avoid allergic reactions.
Take a sufficient amount from the bottle marked STEP 1 on damp hair and apply by massaging from the roots to the ends.
Rinse your hair with plenty of water and repeat the process.

Dry your hair and make sure it is not damp.
Shake the bottle labeled STEP 2 before use and divide your hair into 4 equal sections before application.
Apply Keratin to every section of hair you have separated, starting from 2 centimeters from the hair roots to the ends of the hair.

Comb your hair and make sure it is distributed evenly.
15 minutes for frizzy hair,
25 minutes for curly and wavy hair,

For very curly hair, leave it on for 40 minutes.
Dry your hair by combing it with the help of a blow dryer and a straightening brush so that it does not remain damp.
Straighten your hair from root to tip with the help of hair straightening tongs.

Rinse your hair with water for 5 minutes.
Take a small amount from the bottle labeled STEP 3, apply it to your hair and distribute it evenly with the help of a comb.
Leave it on for 10 minutes for thin hair, 15 minutes for normal hair, 20 minutes for thick hair for it to take effect.

Rinse with plenty of water for 8 minutes.

BENEFITS AND RESULTS OF KERATIN:
People who use keratin on their hair report that their hair is smoother and easier to manage as a result.
The effects vary greatly depending on whether your hair is healthy to begin with, what the natural thickness of your hair is, and what kind of keratin treatment you use.
Keratin works by smoothing down the cells that overlap to form your hair strands.
The layers of cells, called the hair cuticle, theoretically absorb the keratin, resulting in hair that looks full and glossy.
Keratin also claims to make curly hair less frizzy, easier to style, and straighter in appearance.



THINGS YOU SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO AFTER KERATIN CARE:
You should avoid washing your hair for a few days.
Since chlorinated or salty water will reduce the effect of keratin, you can take a break from activities such as pool or sea for a while.
You should prevent your scalp from sweating for 3 days immediately following the keratin treatment.
You should also make sure that the care products you use contain natural ingredients.
You can wait 1-2 weeks to continue your hair care routine and use hair masks.



DOES KERATIN TREATMENT STRAIGHTEN HAIR?
Keratin treatment does not completely straighten the hair.
Keratin treatment, which is often confused with a Brazilian blow dry, does not change your natural hair structure by preventing the hair from becoming more easily shaped and frizzy.
Brazilian blow dry is a process that is made with keratin but with a different technique and allows the hair to remain straight for up to 6 months.



HOW MANY DAYS SHOULD KERATIN CARE NOT BE WASHED?
After the keratin treatment, it is recommended not to wash your hair for a while so that the keratin loaded into your hair is accepted by all your hair strands.
Generally, this period is known as 2-3 days.
If your hair gets wet during this period, it is also recommended to dry Keratin and go over it with a straightener.



HAIT KERATIN:
Hair keratin is a protein that can be found in your skin, hair, and nails. Keratin is also present in the organs and glands of the body.
Keratin is a defensive protein that is less likely to be scratched or torn than other forms of cells produced by your body.



KERATIN POWDER
Keratin therapy users say that their hair is cleaner and easier to handle as a result of using it.
The results differ significantly based on whether your hair is safe, to begin with, how thick your hair is natural, and the keratin therapy you use.
Keratin functions by smoothing out the overlapping cells that make up your hair strands.
The hair cuticle, which is made up of layers of cells, absorbs the keratin, giving hair a full and shiny appearance.
Keratin is often said to make curly hair less frizzy, easy to style, and look straighter.



KERATIN TREATMENT
Keratin treatment is a hairstyling process that requires straightening and flattening of hair to offer it a smooth, straight, streamlined, and elegant look.
It has been used since the 1890s. During the 1950s, smoothing keratin was very common among black males and females of almost all races.



BIO KERATIN:
Peptides derived from hydrolyzed keratin with a high homology and bio-affinity for the keratin found in the hair, skin, and nails.
Heavy amount of hydrophobic amino acids, that improves moisture retention capability.



HOW TO USE KERATIN?
You can use Keratin whenever you need by spraying it on your hair from a distance of 15-20 cm.
Keratin is suitable for all hair types.
You can use Keratin before or after a shower.



WHAT IS KERATIN CARE?
In fact, the body naturally produces keratin for hair and nails.
The reason why your hair is shiny and your nails are vibrant depends on this keratin.
Keratin is loaded by professionals on hair that is damaged, has lost its vitality and has become dull due to various reasons.
This process, which makes the hair look more vibrant and healthy, is called keratin care.



WHAT DOES KERATIN CARE DO?
Thanks to keratin care, the hair looks more vibrant and shiny.
Problems such as frizz and frizz disappear for a few months.



KERATIN CARE BENEFITS
Of course, keratin treatment not only makes the hair shine, but also contains many benefits for the hair.
Moving on to what these benefits are;

*Smooth and shiny hair:
Keratin, which cares for the hair strands one by one, prevents the hair from becoming frizzy and frizzy, making it brighter.
Keratin also prevents the appearance of split hair ends.

*Long-term results:
If you take care of your hair care, Keratin will last up to 3-4 months.
During this period, your hair will be more vibrant and easier to shape.

*Healthy hair growth:
Thanks to keratin, which is a substance that the hair needs, the revitalized hair grows in a healthier way.
Strengthening the hair strands prevents breakage and ensures that the hair is well-groomed.



WHAT IS KERATIN CARE, HOW IS KERATIN HAIR CARE DONE?
-3 - Hair Care Beauty
How to do keratin care?
Keratin care, which is generally recommended to be done professionally, has recently become one of the treatments that most women do themselves at home.

Keratin care begins with washing your hair with a special shampoo.
This shampoo provides deep cleansing of the hair.
Keratin is then applied to the hair.

The hair is divided into several equal parts to penetrate each strand of hair.
Keratin is applied to the hair with a brush and spreads by combing to the ends of the hair.
After application, keratin is left on the hair for 20-30 minutes.

For fixation, the hair is dried with a blow dryer and the hair is blow dried.
*At this point, if you are doing it yourself at home, you should definitely use a hygienic mask.
The smoke and odor that emerges when keratin comes into contact with heat can burn your throat.

You should also be very careful when blow-drying your hair roots.
You can burn your scalp with a hot blow dryer to dry the keratin, which takes a while to dry.
This causes dandruff-like dead skin to appear over time.



FUNCTIONS OF KERATIN:
*effective safety from environmental threats
*Enhances and restores the micro-relief of the skin.
*Excellent hair conditioner and protectant.
*Strengthens the hair scales' cohesion.



WHAT IS KERATIN USED FOR?
Keratin helps form the epidermis, which is the outer layer of hair, nails and skin, strengthens the nail structure and increases its durability, and ensures that the hair has a shiny and healthy appearance.
Keratin also maintains the skin's elasticity and firmness.



THE BENEFITS OF KERATIN CAN BE LISTED AS FOLLOWS:
Keratin adds vitality to the hair, gives it strength and makes it look brighter.
Keratin prevents hair from frizzing and strengthens the hair shaft
Keratin prevents skin damage and helps keep skin fresh
Keratin prevents nail breakage and makes nails look stronger



WHAT IS KERATIN CARE?
Keratin care is a process applied to help straighten, smooth and revitalize hair, especially hair that is curly or damaged as a result of external factors.
Keratin is a protein produced naturally by the body, but it can also be obtained through supplements or foods.
In addition, keratin care is good for skin and nail health as well as hair.

What are the Keratin Types?
Keratin, which has 54 types in the body, is divided into two types. These are divided into type 1 and type 2.

Type 1:
28 of the 54 types of keratin in the human body are type I. 17 of these are skin cell (epithelial) keratins and 11 are hair keratins.
Most type I keratins (cytokeratins) consist of acidic and low-weight proteins.
Keratinv has many functions, including skin and hair health, including helping protect cells from internal forces in the body (mechanical stress).

Type 2:
The other 26 types of keratin in the human body are type II.
20 of these are skin cell keratins and 6 are hair keratins.
They consist of basic-neutral, high-weight proteins.
Their basic-neutral pH helps balance type I keratins and manage cell activity.



IN WHICH FOODS IS KERATIN FOUND?
Keratin, which is naturally found in the body, is also included in some foods, and it is possible to meet the body's keratin needs by consuming these foods.

Here are some foods containing keratin:
*Egg
*Carrot
*Mango
*Sweet potato
*Salmon



EXAMPLES OF OCCURRENCE OF KERATIN:
Alpha-keratins (α-keratins) are found in all vertebrates.
They form the hair (including wool), the outer layer of skin, horns, nails, claws and hooves of mammals, and the slime threads of hagfish.
The baleen plates of filter-feeding whales are also made of keratin.

Keratin filaments are abundant in keratinocytes in the hornified layer of the epidermis; these are proteins which have undergone keratinization.
They are also present in epithelial cells in general.
For example, mouse thymic epithelial cells react with antibodies for keratin 5, keratin 8, and keratin 14.

These antibodies are used as fluorescent markers to distinguish subsets of mouse thymic epithelial cells in genetic studies of the thymus.
The harder beta-keratins (β-keratins) are found only in the sauropsids, that is all living reptiles and birds.
They are found in the nails, scales, and claws of reptiles, in some reptile shells (testudines, such as tortoise, turtle, terrapin), and in the feathers, beaks, and claws of birds.

These keratins are formed primarily in beta sheets. However, beta sheets are also found in α-keratins.
Recent scholarship has shown that sauropsid β-keratins are fundamentally different from α-keratins at a genetic and structural level.
The new term corneous beta protein (CBP) has been proposed to avoid confusion with α-keratins.

Keratins (also described as cytokeratins) are polymers of type I and type II intermediate filaments that have been found only in chordates (vertebrates, amphioxus, urochordates).
Nematodes and many other non-chordate animals seem to have only type VI intermediate filaments, fibers that structure the nucleus.



GENES OF KERATIN:
The human genome encodes 54 functional keratin genes, located in two clusters on chromosomes 12 and 17.
This suggests that they originated from a series of gene duplications on these chromosomes.

The keratins include the following proteins of which KRT23, KRT24, KRT25, KRT26, KRT27, KRT28, KRT31, KRT32, KRT33A, KRT33B, KRT34, KRT35, KRT36, KRT37, KRT38, KRT39, KRT40, KRT71, KRT72, KRT73, KRT74, KRT75, KRT76, KRT77, KRT78, KRT79, KRT8, KRT80, KRT81, KRT82, KRT83, KRT84, KRT85 and KRT86 have been used to describe keratins past 20



WHAT SHOULD WE DO AFTER KERATIN CARE?
First of all, we should leave our hair keratinized for a few days and not wash it immediately.
In this way, keratin will penetrate into our hair thoroughly.
In the days after the care, Keratin is important for our scalp to breathe and not sweat.

That's why we should be careful not to let our scalp sweat.
As always, we should not use shampoos and hair care products that contain harmful chemicals.
After having a keratin treatment, we should avoid contact of our hair with salty or chlorinated water for a while.

For this reason, we can choose to do keratin care after the sea and pool season.
We should stop our classical daily or weekly hair care routines for a while.



ARE KERATIN TREATMENT AND BRAZILIAN BLOW DRY THE SAME THING?
One of the topics we often hear and wonder about is whether the two are the same thing.
While Brazilian blow dry is a method used by people who want to wear their hair straight for a while, keratin treatment is a treatment we use to make our hair look healthier and more well-groomed.

However, since the main ingredient used for Brazilian blow dry is mostly keratin, keratin care and Brazilian blow dry can be confused.
The distinction here is the application method of keratin treatment and Brazilian blow dry.
In this way, keratin care provides a deep care to the hair, while Brazilian blow dry creates a straightening effect for up to 6 months.

WHAT ARE KERATINS BENEFITS FOR HAIR?
Keratin is actually an acid found naturally in humans and other vertebrates.
One of the functions of this acid is to provide energy support by reducing fat in muscle cells.
The benefits of keratin, which plays an important role in the structure of hair, skin, nails and other body tissues, for hair are listed below.

Elasticity:
Keratin provides elasticity to the hair strands.
In this way, the hair becomes more flexible, more resistant to external influences and can be shaped easily.

Strengthening:
Keratin strengthens hair strands and prevents breakage, wear and breakage.
Keratinprovides a stronger structure to the hair and supports the hair strands to be more durable.

Maintaining Moisture Balance:
Keratin helps hair strands maintain their natural moisture balance.
This ensures that the hair remains moisturized and protected from drying out.
Keratin can also reduce dry hair problems by helping the hair retain moisture better.

Resistance to Breakage:
Keratin protects the hair strands against external factors.
Keratin protects the hair exposed to factors such as sunlight, heat styling tools and chemical processes, preventing them from breaking and getting damaged.

After all this general information, we can move on to our main topic, keratin care at home.
If you are ready, we start.



KERATIN CARE STAGES:
Before you attempt this job , it is natural for you to have questions about how to do keratin care at home .
We aim to answer this question with this article.
By continuing reading, you can get an idea about doing keratin care at home .


*First Stage: Cleaning
Before starting keratin care, you need to clean your hair well.
Wash and rinse your hair with a suitable shampoo before keratin treatment.
Removing product residues and oil accumulated in your hair will increase the effect of keratin care.
It's up to us to say.


*Second stage: Dehumidification
Gently dry your hair with a towel; but do not use a hair dryer to dry it completely.
A slightly damp hair is more suitable for the keratin treatment.
Those who do keratin care at home know how important this process is.


*It's Time for Application
To perform keratin treatment with ingredients at home, choose one of the products you have purchased before.
At this stage, a keratin mask or keratin hair serum is generally preferred.
Apply the product to your hair according to the instructions and ensure that the keratin is thoroughly distributed throughout your hair.
Finally, leave the keratin product on your hair for the specified time.


*Optional: Straightening
Keratin treatment is usually completed with a straightening process.
You can use heat styling tools like a hair straightener or curling iron to straighten your hair.
To ensure full absorption of the keratin product, divide your hair into thin sections and smooth each section.
Be careful not to damage your hair by doing the process carefully.
If you do not intend to flatten it, you can skip this part.


*Wait
After completing your keratin treatment, you may need to let your hair rest for a certain period of time.
This time is necessary for the keratin product to penetrate the hair better.
A period of 24 to 72 hours is generally recommended for leaving the keratin product in the hair.
Just know that you should not wash your hair during this period.


*Rinsing and Styling
You can rinse your hair after the waiting time specified in the previous step is completed.
Style your hair after the first rinse.
After keratin treatment, your hair will be smoother and straighter.

What are you waiting for to style your hair with methods such as curling iron or blow dryer to give the desired shape?
Now that we have answered the question of how to do natural keratin care at home , it is time to take a look at the foods containing keratin.
Below you can find detailed information about which foods contain keratin .



WHICH FOODS CONTAIN KERATIN?
The important point here is to note that keratin is not found directly in foods because it is a protein naturally produced in the body.
However, it is very important to consume foods that contain the nutrients the body needs for healthy keratin production.
Here are the important nutritional sources for keratin production:

*Protein Sources:
Proteins, which are the main components of keratin; It is found in animal and plant sources such as meat, chicken, fish, eggs, dairy products and legumes.
These foods provide the basic building blocks for the body's keratin production.

*Biotin:
Biotin is an important nutrient for hair, skin and nail health.
It is found in foods such as eggs, avocados, almonds, walnuts, mushrooms, milk, yoghurt and fish.
Biotin deficiency can cause hair weakening and breakage.

*Zinc:
Zinc is important for maintaining healthy hair and hair follicles.
Eggs , red meat, seafood, pumpkin seeds, beans, almonds and nuts are sources of zinc.

*Iron:
Iron deficiency can cause hair loss.
Consuming iron-rich foods such as spinach, red meat, turkey, beans, lentils, tofu, grains and dried fruits is beneficial for hair health.

*Vitamin A:
Vitamin A is important for scalp health and sebum production.
It is found in foods such as carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, kale, apricots, mangoes and salmon.

*Vitamin E:
Vitamin E preserves the moisture of the hair and is beneficial for scalp health.
It is found in foods such as almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, sunflower oil, olive oil and avocado.

Including various protein sources and other nutrients necessary for keratin production in the diet can support hair health.
However, for healthy hair, Keratin is extremely important to pay attention not only to nutrition but also to general lifestyle.
A healthy lifestyle includes factors such as regular sleep, adequate water consumption and stress management.



HOW OFTEN SHOULD KERATIN TREATMENT BE DONE?
So, how often should keratin care be done ?
Here is the answer!

*Keratin care frequency;
Keratin may vary depending on hair type, hair condition and properties of the product used.
The effect of keratin treatment usually decreases over time and the hair returns to its previous state.
Therefore, it is important to repeat keratin care regularly.
Here are the recommended frequencies for keratin care:

*Professional Keratin Care:
Professional keratin care is generally recommended for a period of 2 to 4 months.
This time may vary depending on the hair growth rate, the quality of the keratin product and personal preferences.
Some people may experience effective results for longer periods of time, while others may prefer to repeat it more frequently.

*Keratin Care at Home:
The effect of keratin care products used at home may last shorter than professional applications.
It is important to act in accordance with the instructions for use of home keratin care products.
Keratin treatment at home can be repeated every 2 to 3 weeks.


The important thing here is to observe the condition of your hair and act according to your hair's needs to decide how often you should do keratin care.
Experts recommend that you should care for your hair regularly to keep it healthier and smoother.
Additionally, using shampoo, conditioner and other hair care products suitable for your hair type will also support your hair health.



KERATIN CARE BENEFITS
Now we come to the benefits of keratin care .
You can see what keratin contributes to your hair in the following items.

Keratin provides strength and durability to hair strands.
Keratin supports the hair to be more resistant to breakage, wear and breakage.

Keratin treatment ensures that the hair stays straight for longer when straightened.
Wavy or frizzy hair is reduced, providing a smoother appearance for a longer time after straightening.

Keratin care increases the shine of hair.
Hair looks healthier and more vibrant.

Keratin protects the hair strands against external factors.
Keratin protects the hair exposed to factors such as sunlight, heat styling tools and chemical processes, preventing them from breaking and getting damaged.

Keratin helps hair strands maintain their natural moisture balance.
Keratin preserves the moisture of the hair, prevents it from drying out and ensures better moisture retention.
If you have obtained detailed information about whether keratin care can be done at home , it is time to enlighten yourself about summer hair care.



PROTEIN STRUCTURE OF KERATIN:
The first sequences of keratins were determined by Israel Hanukoglu and Elaine Fuchs (1982, 1983).
These sequences revealed that there are two distinct but homologous keratin families, which were named type I and type II keratins.

By analysis of the primary structures of these keratins and other intermediate filament proteins, Hanukoglu and Fuchs suggested a model in which keratins and intermediate filament proteins contain a central ~310 residue domain with four segments in α-helical conformation that are separated by three short linker segments predicted to be in beta-turn conformation.
This model has been confirmed by the determination of the crystal structure of a helical domain of keratins.

*Type 1 and 2 Keratins:
The human genome has 54 functional annotated Keratin genes, 28 are in the Keratin type 1 family, and 26 are in the Keratin type 2 family.
Fibrous keratin molecules supercoil to form a very stable, left-handed superhelical motif to multimerise, forming filaments consisting of multiple copies of the keratin monomer.

The major force that keeps the coiled-coil structure is hydrophobic interactions between apolar residues along the keratins helical segments.
Limited interior space is the reason why the triple helix of the (unrelated) structural protein collagen, found in skin, cartilage and bone, likewise has a high percentage of glycine.

The connective tissue protein elastin also has a high percentage of both glycine and alanine.
Silk fibroin, considered a β-keratin, can have these two as 75–80% of the total, with 10–15% serine, with the rest having bulky side groups.

The chains are antiparallel, with an alternating C → N orientation.
A preponderance of amino acids with small, nonreactive side groups is characteristic of structural proteins, for which H-bonded close packing is more important than chemical specificity.


*Disulfide bridges:
In addition to intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds, the distinguishing feature of keratins is the presence of large amounts of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine, required for the disulfide bridges that confer additional strength and rigidity by permanent, thermally stable crosslinking—in much the same way that non-protein sulfur bridges stabilize vulcanized rubber.

Human hair is approximately 14% cysteine.
The pungent smells of burning hair and skin are due to the volatile sulfur compounds formed.
Extensive disulfide bonding contributes to the insolubility of keratins, except in a small number of solvents such as dissociating or reducing agents.

The more flexible and elastic keratins of hair have fewer interchain disulfide bridges than the keratins in mammalian fingernails, hooves and claws (homologous structures), which are harder and more like their analogs in other vertebrate classes.

Hair and other α-keratins consist of α-helically coiled single protein strands (with regular intra-chain H-bonding), which are then further twisted into superhelical ropes that may be further coiled.
The β-keratins of reptiles and birds have β-pleated sheets twisted together, then stabilized and hardened by disulfide bridges.

Thiolated polymers (=thiomers) can form disulfide bridges with cysteine substructures of keratins getting covalently attached to these proteins.
Thiomers exhibit therefore high binding properties to keratins found in hair, on skin and on the surface of many cell types.


*Filament formation:
It has been proposed that keratins can be divided into 'hard' and 'soft' forms, or 'cytokeratins' and 'other keratins'.
That model is now understood to be correct.
A new nuclear addition in 2006 to describe keratins takes this into account.


*Keratin filaments are intermediate filaments.
Like all intermediate filaments, keratin proteins form filamentous polymers in a series of assembly steps beginning with dimerization; dimers assemble into tetramers and octamers and eventually, if the current hypothesis holds, into unit-length-filaments (ULF) capable of annealing end-to-end into long filaments.



WHAT IS IT HAIR CARE AND WHAT DOES KERATIN CARE DO?
When it comes to hair care, one of the treatments that comes to our mind is keratin care.
Topic today is keratin hair care, which we apply to our hair in hairdressers or at home.



SO WHAT IS THIS KERATIN HAIR CARE?
It produces keratin naturally for the body, hair and nails.
In this way, our nails become strong and vibrant, and our hair becomes healthy and shiny.
When this naturally produced keratin is not enough for our hair for various reasons, we can apply keratin care as an external supplement.
In this way, our hair looks more vibrant, well-groomed and healthy.



WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF KERATIN CARE FOR HAIR?
As we mentioned, keratin treatment is a process that will make our hair look brighter and healthier.
With correct application, Keratin repairs hair damage and protects the hair. With keratin care, our hair gains a shiny structure and a shine and vitality that lasts for 3-4 months. It also makes the hair more voluminous.



HOW IS KERATIN CARE DONE?
Keratin care can be done professionally at the hairdresser, or it can be done at home with care kits.
Depending on your preference and needs, you can have keratin treatment at a hairdresser at regular intervals or you can do it at home.



KERATIN CARE AT THE HAIRDERSSER:
It starts with thoroughly cleaning and purifying your hair by washing it with a shampoo suitable for your hair structure.
Then, the hair is divided into pieces and keratin is applied to each piece with a brush, touching every strand.
Afterwards, the keratin is left on the hair for a while and the hair is straightened with a straightener or the keratin is allowed to penetrate into the hair with the help of a blow dryer to ensure that it is thoroughly processed and fixed.



KERATIN CARE AT HOME:
The difference between keratin treatment done at a hairdresser is generally related to the products we use.
While professional products are used in hairdressers, we can use a keratin care product with quality ingredients to perform keratin care at home.

Hair is cleaned and purified.
Afterwards, the hair is divided into pieces and keratin is applied.
After waiting for a while, the keratin is ensured to penetrate thoroughly into the hair with the help of a straightener or blow dryer.

One of the things we need to pay attention to in this regard is that we should be careful to use a mask when doing keratin care at home and when applying a straightener or blow dryer to our keratin hair.
If possible, let's open the ventilation or windows.
Because the smoke that comes out when we heat keratin hair can disturb us.



WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF KERATIN CARE?
Hair is exposed to many damaging factors such as seasonal changes, heat treatments, dyeing and lightening processes, styling sprays and creams we use, and therefore it becomes weak and worn out.
Moreover, irregular diet or unhealthy diet causes the hair to weaken and the keratin in the hair to disappear.

If your hair has become weak, damaged and faded due to these factors, keratin care comes to your rescue.
Keratin care provides protection against external factors by surrounding the hair strands like a protection shield.
The stronger hair strand is less affected by external factors.

With care products containing keratin, the keratin that the hair needs and lost is recharged.
In particular, split ends are repaired and the hair becomes more vibrant, brighter, softer and smoother.
Most importantly, hair grows healthier and stronger.
Thus, there is an increase in hair growth rate.



WHICH HAIR NEEDS KERATIN?
If your hair strands have become thinner or you notice that they are getting thinner, if your hair is more dull and lost its color, if you are losing a lot of hair and even break off in clumps, and if it is hard, difficult to comb, and even more difficult to style, it means that your hair needs this care.



HOW TO MAKE A KERATIN MASK?
Doing this care, which will repair your damaged hair and return Keratin to its former strong and vibrant state, is not as difficult as it seems.
You can also do Keratin is left on the hair for 15-20 minutes, and the hair is supported to absorb the product with a blow dryer, provided that the recommended temperatures are not too high.

Then, the hair is washed and dried, and a layer of hair is blow-dried with a machine such as a blow dryer or straightener.
When the treatment is completed, the keratin in your hair increases and the change is visible and your hair gets a great shine.
Applying this care to your hair periodically will be beneficial for the continuity of the proteins in your hair structure.



HOW TO PERFORM KERATIN CARE?
Generally, when keratin care is mentioned, everyone thinks of hair straightening procedures performed at the hairdresser.
However, keratin is a very important substance for hair, and keratin-containing care products should be used regularly in order for the hair to grow healthy and without breakage.
You should apply the herbal keratin shampoo by massaging it into your scalp, and apply the hair care cream by concentrating on the ends of your hair.



PRODUCTION OF KERATIN:
production of small proline-rich (SPRR) proteins and transglutaminase which eventually form a cornified cell envelope beneath the plasma membrane

*terminal differentiation:
loss of nuclei and organelles, in the final stages of cornification
Metabolism ceases, and the cells are almost completely filled by keratin.

During the process of epithelial differentiation, cells become cornified as keratin protein is incorporated into longer keratin intermediate filaments.
Eventually the nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles disappear, metabolism ceases and cells undergo a programmed death as they become fully keratinized.
In many other cell types, such as cells of the dermis, keratin filaments and other intermediate filaments function as part of the cytoskeleton to mechanically stabilize the cell against physical stress.

Keratin does this through connections to desmosomes, cell–cell junctional plaques, and hemidesmosomes, cell-basement membrane adhesive structures.
Cells in the epidermis contain a structural matrix of keratin, which makes this outermost layer of the skin almost waterproof, and along with collagen and elastin gives skin its strength.

Rubbing and pressure cause thickening of the outer, cornified layer of the epidermis and form protective calluses, which are useful for athletes and on the fingertips of musicians who play stringed instruments.
Keratinized epidermal cells are constantly shed and replaced.

These hard, integumentary structures are formed by intercellular cementing of fibers formed from the dead, cornified cells generated by specialized beds deep within the skin.
Hair grows continuously and feathers molt and regenerate.

The constituent proteins may be phylogenetically homologous but differ somewhat in chemical structure and supermolecular organization.
The evolutionary relationships are complex and only partially known.
Multiple genes have been identified for the β-keratins in feathers, and this is probably characteristic of all keratins.


*Silk:
The silk fibroins produced by insects and spiders are often classified as keratins, though it is unclear whether they are phylogenetically related to vertebrate keratins.
Silk found in insect pupae, and in spider webs and egg casings, also has twisted β-pleated sheets incorporated into fibers wound into larger supermolecular aggregates.

The structure of the spinnerets on spiders’ tails, and the contributions of their interior glands, provide remarkable control of fast extrusion.
Spider silk is typically about 1 to 2 micrometers (µm) thick, compared with about 60 µm for human hair, and more for some mammals.
The biologically and commercially useful properties of silk fibers depend on the organization of multiple adjacent protein chains into hard, crystalline regions of varying size, alternating with flexible, amorphous regions where the chains are randomly coiled.

A somewhat analogous situation occurs with synthetic polymers such as nylon, developed as a silk substitute.
Silk from the hornet cocoon contains doublets about 10 µm across, with cores and coating, and may be arranged in up to 10 layers, also in plaques of variable shape.
Adult hornets also use silk as a glue, as do spiders.


Glue:
Glues made from partially-hydrolysed keratin include hoof glue and horn glue.


*Clinical significance
Abnormal growth of keratin can occur in a variety of conditions including keratosis, hyperkeratosis and keratoderma.
Keratin is highly resistant to digestive acids if ingested.
Cats regularly ingest hair as part of their grooming behavior, leading to the gradual formation of hairballs that may be expelled orally or excreted.
In humans, trichophagia may lead to Rapunzel syndrome, an extremely rare but potentially fatal intestinal condition.


*Diagnostic use
Keratin expression is helpful in determining epithelial origin in anaplastic cancers.
Tumors that express keratin include carcinomas, thymomas, sarcomas and trophoblastic neoplasms.

Furthermore, the precise expression-pattern of keratin subtypes allows prediction of the origin of the primary tumor when assessing metastases.
For example, hepatocellular carcinomas typically express CK8 and CK18, and cholangiocarcinomas express CK7, CK8 and CK18, while metastases of colorectal carcinomas express CK20, but not CK7

The transition is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2014. “Expanding the Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) manufacturing capacity at our Minden site is another example of BASF’s commitment to the pharmaceutical and dietary supplement market. The relocation creates a more centralized production facility, reduces complexity in the production setup, and provides room for future expansion,” said Dr. Thorsten Schmeller, Head of Global Marketing New Products at BASF’s Global Business Unit Pharma Ingredients & Services. The Minden site has manufactured active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients under cGMP for more than 70 years and is regularly inspected by the FDA and European health authorities. Schmeller: “Thanks to the ICH Q7 quality management standards at our Minden site, we will be able to offer a Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) grade that fulfills the requirements of an API.” Commitment to a seamless transition Until the production in Minden is fully operational, BASF will continue to manufacture Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) at the Kankakee site, which will fully support pharmaceutical and nutraceutical customers during the transition. “We have scheduled a generous supply overlap that we expect allows for a seamless transition,” added Schmeller. “Our projection also takes into account the appropriate qualification period required to transition products used in pharmaceutical applications.” Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) production at the Minden site is expected to start in the first quarter of 2013. The Kankakee site remains an important production facility for BASF’s nutrition and health business. Besides food ingredients, the company manufactures ingredients for soaps, shampoos, detergents, coatings, inks and adhesives at the site. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is a water-soluble derivative of vitamin E that can directly enhance the bioavailability of poorly soluble active substances. It is commonly used in pharmaceutical and nutritional formulations, but also in cosmetics. Additionally it has plasticizing effects that are very beneficial for emerging platform technologies in the pharmaceutical industry such as hot melt extrusion (HME). Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is a water-soluble derivative of vitamin E that can directly improve the bioavailability of poorly soluble active substances. BASF Global Business Unit Pharma Ingredients & Services Global Marketing New Products head Thorsten Schmeller said the relocation creates a centralized production facility, reducing complexity in the production setup, while providing room for future expansion. The company said until the production in Minden is fully operational, it will continue to manufacture Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) at the Kankakee site. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is commonly used in pharmaceutical and nutritional, as well as in cosmetic formulations. The production of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) at the Minden site is likely to begin in the first quarter of 2013 with the completion scheduled to Q1, 2014. D-ɑ-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (Vitamin E Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) or Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)) has been approved by FDA as a safe adjuvant and widely used in drug delivery systems. The biological and physicochemical properties of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) provide multiple advantages for its applications in drug delivery like high biocompatibility, enhancement of drug solubility, improvement of drug permeation and selective antitumor activity. Notably, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can inhibit the activity of ATP dependent P-glycoprotein and act as a potent excipient for overcoming multi-drug resistance (MDR) in tumor. In this review, we aim to discuss the recent advances of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) in drug delivery including Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) based prodrugs, nitric oxide donor and polymers, and unmodified Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) based formulations. These potential applications are focused on enhancing delivery efficiency as well as the therapeutic effect of agents, especially on overcoming MDR of tumors. It also demonstrates that the clinical translation of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) based nanomedicines is still faced with many challenges, which requires more detailed study on Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) properties and based delivery system in the future. Vitamin E has been identified as an essential factor for reproduction since 1922 1. With further investigation, it has been found with other functions involving antioxidant, anti-thrombolytic and other therapeutic effects 2, 3. However, the poor water solubility of vitamin E has greatly limited its application 4. Vitamin E d-ɑ-tocopheryl poly(ethylene glycol) 1000 succinate (simply as Vitamin E Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) or Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)), synthesized by esterification of vitamin E succinate with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) 1000, is a water-soluble derivative of natural vitamin E 5. It has an amphiphilic structure comprising hydrophilic polar head portion and lipophilic alkyl tail. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can be functionalized as an excellent solubilizer, emulsifier, permeation and bioavailability enhancer of hydrophobic drugs 6. Meanwhile, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can act as an anticancer agent, which has been demonstrated to induce apoptogenic activity against many cancer types. It can target the mitochondria of cancer cells, resulting in the mitochondrial destabilisation for activation of mitochondrial mediators of apoptosis 7. Interestingly, it has been documented that Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can selectively induce apoptosis in tumor cells while exhibited nontoxicity to normal cells and tissues 8. Multi-drug resistance (MDR) remains as a significant impediment to successful chemotherapy in clinical cancer treatment. What's worse, decades of research has identified that this phenomenon exists in nearly every effective drug, even the newest therapeutic agents 9. Therefore, how to effectively reverse drug resistance plays a critical role in achieving satisfied therapeutic effect in cancer treatment. It has been demonstrated that various mechanisms are involved in MDR including decreased drug influx, increased drug efflux, changed drug metabolism and promoted anti-apoptotic mechanism 10. Among them, the drug efflux mediated by ATP-binding cassette transporter P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) is one of the most investigated and characterized mechanisms for MDR. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) has 12 transmembrane regions to bind hydrophobic substrate drugs and two ATP-binding sites to transport drug molecules 11. It can pump out P-gp substrate drugs to the extracellular space and thus decrease the intracellular drug accumulation. Over the past few decades, considerable efforts have been devoted to exploring P-gp inhibitors for overcoming MDR. Several nonionic surfactants such as Pluronic, Tweens, Span and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) have been found with the ability to inhibit P-gp activity 12, 13. Though the exact mechanism of P-gp inhibition by these surfactants remains unclear, steric blocking of substrate binding 14, alteration of membrane fluidity 15 and inhibition of efflux pump ATPase 16, 17 have been proposed as the potential mechanisms. As a widely used adjuvant in drug delivery, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) has been shown as the most potent and commercially available P-gp inhibitor among these surfactants 18. As a membrane transporter of ATP-binding cassette family, P-gp can pump out the substrate drug via an ATP-dependent mechanism 19. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can target the mitochondria and cause its dysfunction, resulting in the depletion of intracellular ATP. The reduced ATP level can then influence the activity of P-gp and decrease the drug efflux to extracellular space 20. Besides, the hydrolysis of ATP by ATPase is critical for converting the P-gp transporter to an active conformational state for substrate drug efflux 16. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) itself cannot stimulate ATPase activity as it is not a substrate of P-gp, but can inhibit the substrate induced ATPase activity 21. In our previous works, we have demonstrated that Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can significantly enhance the intracellular accumulation and cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutics to drug resistant breast adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7/ADR) and human ovarian cancer cells (A2780/T) 22-24. Since Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) has been approved by the FDA as a safe pharmaceutical adjuvant, it has been extensively used in drug delivery systems as surfactant, solubilizer, stabilizer and P-gp inhibitor for enhancing bioavailability and reversing MDR. In our previous reviews 5, 6, we discussed Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) as a molecular biomaterial and its original application in drug delivery. In this review, we focused on the progress of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) in drug delivery in recent five years, which took advantages of the P-gp inhibiting ability and other basic properties. We summarized the applications of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) based prodrugs, nitric oxide (NO) donor and polymers for overcoming MDR and delivering therapeutic agents. We also discussed the unmodified Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) based formulations applied in reversing MDR, improving oral availability and enhancing drug permeation. We expect this review will give new inspiration for the application of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) in overcoming MDR and drug delivery. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) as a surfactant Poor water solubility and/or poor permeability remain as the major obstacles for therapeutic drugs to exert maximum activity. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can be applied as solubilizer, absorption and permeation enhancer, emulsifier as well as surface stabilizer in drug delivery. It has been widely used in fabricating nanodrugs or other formulations for many poorly water-soluble or permeable drugs, especially for biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS) class Ⅱ and Ⅳ drugs 5, 6. In addition, it has been reported that Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) exhibited strong enhancement on the secretion of chylomicrons at low concentration and enhanced the intestinal lymphatic transport 25, which would further improve drug absorption ability. As a surfactant, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) shows outstanding capability to increase drug absorption through different biological barriers. For example, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) was used to fabricate repaglinide nanocrystals for enhancing saturation solubility and oral bioavailability up to 25.7-fold and 15.0-fold compared with free drug, respectively 26. In Ussing chambers transport studies, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can enhance drug permeation in colonic tissue 27. In addition, the influence of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) on the intestinal absorption ability of icariside Ⅱ was investigated in Caco-2 monolayer model and a four-site rat intestinal perfusion model. In Caco-2 monolayer model, the apparent permeability coefficients value of icariside Ⅱ was increased and the efflux ratio was remarkably reduced owing to the effect of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS). The four-site rat intestinal perfusion model investigation further showed significantly increased permeability of icariside Ⅱ in ileum and colon 28. Similar results were found in Caco-2 monolayer model with rhodamine123 (Rh123) in the presence of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) 29. Interestingly, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can also act as a pore-forming agent in the fabrication of nanoparticles with high drug encapsulation efficiency, small particle size and fast drug release 30. Besides, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can be used as emulsifier or surface stabilizer for the preparation of drug formulations as the hydrophobic portion can entrap hydrophobic drug and the hydrophilic part can stabilize the formulations. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) as a P-gp inhibitor for overcoming MDR Drug resistance of cancer cells can restrict the therapeutic efficacy in chemotherapeutic treatment. As the ATP dependent membrane transporter, P-gp has been one of primary causes for MDR. It can pump out the P-gp substrate drugs to decrease intracellular drug accumulation, thus reducing the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapeutic drugs in drug resistant cancer treatment. Over the past decades, there have been continuous interests to combine P-gp substrate drugs with inhibitor or some polymer with P-gp inhibiting capability in formulations for overcoming MDR 31. Rh123, a P-gp substrate, is usually used as the model drug to study the intracellular retention of drug in MDR tumor cells. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can significantly increase the intracellular accumulation of Rh123 in drug-resistant tumor cells compared with free Rh123, which was evidenced from the flow cytometry and confocal microscope analysis 32. It seems that Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can effectively inhibit the activity of P-gp to overcome MDR. Since the efflux transporter P-gp is ATP-dependent, the depletion of ATP plays a very important role in overcoming MDR. The MDR reversing effect of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is mainly attributed to its dual actions, the inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory complex Ⅱ for shorting ATP supply and the suppression of substrate induced P-gp ATPase activity for blocking ATP utilization 20, 21, 33, 34. Mitochondrial respiratory complex Ⅱ, also called succinate dehydrogenase, plays an important role in mitochondrial electron transport, which is an essential part in the tricarboxylic acid cycle as well as the mitochondrial respiratory chain 35. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can bind with mitochondrial respiratory complex Ⅱ and induce subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in significant depletion of intracellular energy 20, 36. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can accumulate in mitochondria and inhibit the activity of complex Ⅱ, and consequently disrupt the electron transfer and activate calcium channel, which would result in the overload of calcium and ensuing dysfunction of mitochondria. Mitochondrial dysfunction is characterized by the dissipating effect on mitochondrial membrane potential, decreased ATP level and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation 37. Furthermore, the mitochondrial targeting ability of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) may accelerate the mitochondrial dysfunction 32, 38. Substrate induced P-gp ATPase activity suppression is another mechanism for Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) to decrease drug efflux 21. ATPase activity can be stimulated by the binding of substrate to transmembrane regions of P-gp 39. Subsequently, ATP is transformed into adenosine diphosphate (ADP) for the energy supply of drug efflux. Unlike the classical P-gp inhibitor verapamil, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is not a substrate of P-gp and shows no competitive inhibition effect of substrate binding. The steric blocking function of the binding site and/or allosteric modulation of P-gp appear to be the ATPase inhibition mechanism. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) as a selective anticancer agent for synergistic antitumor effects Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can induce apoptosis and exhibits selective cytotoxic effects against cancer cells, which can be combined with chemotherapeutic drugs for reducing side effect and increasing treatment efficiency. There is significant different response on normal immortalized breast cells and cancer cells after Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) treatment. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can trigger the apoptotic signaling pathways and induce G1/S cell cycle arrest in breast cancer cells MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, but no remarkable effect on non-tumorigenic cells MCF-10A and MCF-12F 40. Coincidentally, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can induce apoptosis on T cell acute lymphocytic leukemia Jurkat clone E6-1 cells, but not on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. The apoptosis was evidenced by increased nuclear DNA fragmentation, enhanced cell cycle arrest and reduced mitochondrial membrane potential 41. The selective apoptosis mechanisms of cancer cells mediated by Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) are complicated and can be listed as follows: ROS inducer Similar to α-tocopheryl succinate (α-TOS), Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can induce cancer cell apoptosis through the destruction and inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory complex Ⅱ 33, 41. The subsequent electron transfer chain disruption can promote ROS generation 20. The escalated intracellular ROS, a mediator of apoptosis, can induce DNA damage and the oxidation of lipid, protein and enzyme, leading to cell destruction 42. Besides, it has been demonstrated that ROS-mediated apoptosis mechanism was correlated with the selective anticancer activity as tumor cells could be more sensitive to ROS than normal cells 43-45. Compared with TOS, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) exhibited enhanced ROS generation capability 46. Downregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can inhibit the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (PKB or AKT) and then downregulate the anti-apoptotic proteins Survivin and Bcl-2, which can induce the activation of caspase-3 and -7 for caspase-dependent programmed cell death 40. Concurrently, caspase-independent programmed cell death and G1/S phase cell cycle arrest also occurred 40, 41. Survivin and Bcl-2 are usually overexpressed in most cancer cells while remarkably reduced in normal cells 47. This may be the main reason for the selective cytotoxicity of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS). DNA damage Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can induce both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent DNA damage. This kind of DNA damage was observed in androgen receptor positive (AR+) LNCaP cells but not in AR- DU145 and PC3 cells, which was related to the cellular microenvironment 48. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX conjugate Doxorubicin (DOX) is a P-gp substrate and broad spectrum anticancer drug. However, the acquired drug resistance of DOX is an obstacle to its clinical applications in the progress of cancer therapy. Bao et al. 23 developed a pH-sensitive Schiff base-linked prodrug, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CH=N-DOX (also called TD), by conjugating DOX with Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) for overcoming MDR. This prodrug can self-assemble into stable micelles in physiological condition and realize in vivo tumor targeting and long blood circulation by introducing a PEGylated lipid. It was the first time to provide a “molecular economical” way to combat tumor as the system combined the tumor targeting from the integrin receptor ligand peptide cyclic RGD (cRGD), long circulation property from PEGylated lipid, overcoming MDR from the material Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) and stimuli-responsive release from Schiff based linker. The formulated hybrid micelles showed pH-sensitive drug release profile and obvious particles size change in pH 5.0 buffer which simulated the endo/lysosomal acidic environment. It also demonstrated increased DOX uptake by flow cytometry and confocal microscope analysis, and enhanced retention through in vivo pharmacokinetics compared with free drug. DOX exhibited good retention in drug sensitive MCF-7 cells during incubation. On the contrary, free drug showed much low DOX content and remarkably reduced retention in MCF-7/ADR cells even with extended incubation time. Both the P-gp inhibitors of verapamil and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) can increase the drug accumulation in MCF-7/ADR cells. The prodrug micelles achieved the similar drug uptake and retention trend with the admixture of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) and DOX in MCF-7/ADR cells. It seems that the rapidly dissociated Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) from the internalized micelles can inhibit the P-gp activity and retain DOX for subsequent cytotoxicity against MDR tumors. The enhanced cytotoxicity and apoptosis was induced by the hybrid micelles in MCF-7/ADR cells compared with free DOX as the half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of hybrid micelles was 95-fold lower than that of free drug after 72 h incubation. The mechanism of antitumor efficacy was further investigated through the analysis of intracellular ROS production, change of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and intracellular ATP level (Figure ​Figure22B). The accumulation of ROS, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and decreased ATP generation from the hybrid micelles may contribute to the P-gp inhibition by Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) with cutting off the energy supply from the 'cellular power plants' of mitochondria. The prodrug exhibited significant growth inhibition on MCF-7/ADR tumor (Figure ​Figure22C) and also tumor growth/metastasis inhibition on murine melanoma B16F10 and hepatocarcinoma H22 with cRGD decorated on the hybrid micelles. It provided a safe and simple prodrug platform to relieve the burden from delivery system and improve the therapeutic efficiency of nanomedicine through the rational design of prodrug for effective cancer treatment. Some other Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX prodrugs were also designed and constructed 55-57. Feng's group 55 developed Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX prodrug by directly conjugating succinic anhydride modified Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) with DOX. The prodrug showed improved cell uptake and cytotoxicity. Compared with free drug, 4.5- and 24-fold of half-life (t1/2) and area under curve (AUC) were found in Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX prodrug, respectively. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX-folic acid conjugate (Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX-FOL) was further introduced for targeted chemotherapy with higher therapeutic effects and fewer side effects 56. Moreover, the prodrug of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX can also be applied to package drug for combinational therapy. Hou et al. 57 constructed an acid-sensitive Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX prodrug by firstly synthesizing a pH-sensitive cis-aconitic anhydride-modified DOX and then conjugating with Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS). The prodrug can self-assemble into nanoparticles. Photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) was loaded in this Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-DOX prodrug nanoparticles for near-infrared fluorescence imaging and combination of chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy against tumor. The nanoparticles exhibited pH-responsive DOX and Ce6 release characteristics, which was caused by the acid-sensitive linker between Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) and DOX. It also demonstrated synergistic effects on cell uptake, cancer cell apoptosis and significant growth suppression in non-small cell lung cancer (A549). Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-PTX conjugate Paclitaxel (PTX) is a BCS class Ⅳ drug with poor solubility and permeability as well as a P-gp substrate, which hinders the effective drug delivery and MDR tumor therapy. Zhang's group 58 synthesized a redox-sensitive prodrug Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-SS-PTX, which could be rapidly dissociated in intracellular redox environment (high GSH concentration) to release PTX for cytotoxicity against tumor and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) active ingredient for P-gp inhibition. The prodrug can self-assemble to stable micelles and realize the passive tumor targeting through the enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect. Compared with non-responsive ester bond conjugated PTX prodrug Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CC-PTX, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-SS-PTX exhibited better stability and in vitro sustained drug release triggered by intracellular reductive environment. The increased stability of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-SS-PTX micelles may be attributed to the soft sulfurs linker between Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) and PTX in comparison to the only two carbon linker of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CC-PTX. Compared with the clinical formulation of Taxol® and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CC-PTX, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-SS-PTX micelles exhibited increased intracellular PTX accumulation for drug-resistant A2780/T cells, which may be caused by the rapid dissociated Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) from the redox-sensitive prodrug. Rh123 was used as a model drug of P-gp substrate to evaluate the drug retention in MDR tumor. When the cells treated with verapamil or prodrugs, Rh123 fluorescence intensity was increased compared with free Rh123. In particular, much higher fluorescence intensity was exhibited in Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-SS-PTX compared with Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CC-PTX, which further confirmed the P-gp inhibition property from dissociated Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS). As expected, this functional prodrug micelle increased the cytotoxicity of PTX in A2780/T cells. Compared with the uncleavable Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-CC-PTX prodrug and Taxol®, the stimuli-responsive prodrug reduced the IC50 and increased the apoptosis/necrosis of MDR tumor. In vivo evaluation further demonstrated the potential of this prodrug micelle on cancer treatment as the increased AUC, extended t1/2, enhanced drug distribution in tumor and significant tumor growth inhibition with reduced side effects. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin conjugate Cisplatin is widely used in testicular, ovarian, cervical, head and neck, and non-small-cell lung cancers. However, the clinical application is limited for low solubility, nephrotoxicity, severe peripheral neurotoxicity, inherent and acquired drug resistance 59. Feng's group 60 developed Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin prodrug to improve the water-solubility and reduce the neurotoxicity of cisplatin. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin can self-assemble to micelles with high drug loading capability. The higher cell uptake and cytotoxicity against HepG2 hepatocarcinoma cells were found in Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin prodrug compared with free drug. The prodrug micelles also showed significant neuroprotective effects with higher IC50 value for the SH-SY5Y neuroblast-like cells in comparison to free cisplatin. In addition, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) is a powerful anticancer agent when dealing with breast cancer with high level of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression 61. It may be related to the inhibition effect of mitochondrial respiratory complex Ⅱ and the ensuing ROS generation, resulting in cell apoptosis via the HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathway 33. Mi and coworkers 62 developed a targeted delivery system of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin prodrug nanoparticles for the co-delivery of cisplatin, docetaxel (DTX) and Herceptin for good tumor inhibition in HER2 overexpressed breast cancers. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS), Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-COOH and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-cisplatin were mixed to fabricate nanoparticles for the multimodality treatment of breast cancer. The multidrug-loaded nanoparticles exhibited much lower IC50 value for SK-BR-3 cells with high expression of HER2 compared with the admixture of free drugs. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-5-FU conjugate Liu's group 63, 64 developed multifunctional nanoparticles for co-delivery of hydrophobic drug PTX and hydrophilic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to overcome MDR. Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-5-FU was synthesized by simply conjugating succinoylated Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) with 5-FU. The nanoparticles, composed of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-5-FU prodrug and PTX, showed enhanced cytotoxicity against MDR tumor compared with individual agent treatment 64. They further developed nanoemulsions with PTX-Vitamin E and Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS)-5-FU prodrug. The nanoemulsions with drugs co-delivery exhibited synergistic effect of overcoming PTX resistance in human epidermal carcinoma cell line KB-8-5 63. The effective anticancer activity was resulted from the P-gp inhibition effect of Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) and the synergistic effect of PTX and 5-FU which can simultaneously target diverse signaling pathways for cancer killing. Targeting ligand conjugated Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E TPGS, E vitamini TPGS) RGD has been applied as a potential targeting ligand in cancer treatment for tumors with αvβ3 integrin receptors overexpression. Li's group 112 formulated PTX and Survivin shRNA co-loaded targeted nanoparticles by mixing Pluronic P85-polyethyleneimine, Kolliphor TPGS (VITAMIN E

It functions as a W/O-emulsifier. This product is suitable for skin care creams and lotions, natural care, and colour cosmetics.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is a nonionic surfactant. It is variously used as a dispersing agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer, in food and in aerosol sprays. As a food additive, it has the E number E492. Brand names for polysorbates include Alkest, Canarcel, and Span. The consistency of KOSTERAN-S/3 G is waxy; its color is light cream to tan.KOSTERAN-S/3 G , also known as E492 or sorbester P38, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tricarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are carboxylic acids containing exactly three carboxyl groups. KOSTERAN-S/3 G is considered to be a practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral molecule. Within the cell, KOSTERAN-S/3 G is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP).KOSTERAN-S/3 G is a nonionic surfactant. It is variously used as a dispersing agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer, in food and in aerosol sprays. As a food additive, it has the E number E492. Brand names for polysorbates include Alkest, Canarcel, and Span. The consistency of KOSTERAN-S/3 G is waxy; its color is light cream to tan.Pernetti et al. (2007) showed the structuring of edible oils using a mixture of sunflower lecithin and KOSTERAN-S/3 G (STS). Individually, neither of these components was by itself capable of inducing gelation even at concentrations as high as 20% w/w. However, when a mixture was used, structuring was achieved at concentrations of approximately 4% w/w. The mixture composition that resulted in structuring ranged between 2:3 lecithin:KOSTERAN-S/3 G to 3:2 lecithin:KOSTERAN-S/3 G . Microscopy of the gels showed the presence of needle-like crystals with lengths of approximately 10 μm. Preparations of only KOSTERAN-S/3 G in oil also showed the presence of crystalline particles, although these crystals had a lower aspect ratio (less needle-like) than when lecithin was present in the mixture. Lecithin was surmised to modify the crystal habit of the KOSTERAN-S/3 G crystals such that a more needle-like morphology resulted, which is more efficient at structuring oil. However, these gels melted at a low temperature (approximately 15°C) and were very sensitive to the addition of water, both of which would limit their utility in water-rich foods.Individually both lecithin (Lec) and KOSTERAN-S/3 G (STS) are incapable of forming oil gels at concentration between 6 and 20 %wt in absence of a polar solvent. However, when mixed in specific ratios between 40:60 to 60:40, Lec:KOSTERAN-S/3 G can form firm gels at a total concentration as low as 4 %wt (Pernetti et al., 2007). The crystalline units formed in these systems are based on KOSTERAN-S/3 G , while Lec plays an important role in influencing both the morphology of the crystalline units as well as the network junctions among the formed units. The gel however has limited use as hardstock fat replacer as it starts softening at temperature above 15 °C and undergoes complete collapse at 30 °C (Pernetti et al., 2007).In chocolate formulations surface-active substances are often used, for instance to reduce viscosity. Popular additives are KOSTERAN-S/3 G (STS), sorbitan monoesters, lecithin, mono- and diacylglycerols. Since roughly two-thirds of the chocolate recipe contains non-fat-soluble substances such as sugar and cocoa powder, the lecithin acts as a lubricant. The polar part of the lecithin covers the sugar particles, while the hydrophobic part faces the fat phase. Roughly 0.5 % is needed to cover the sugar and cocoa powder particles. The covered particles reduce the viscosity of the chocolate mass which is favourable. Lecithin itself is known to reduce the crystallization rate of fat indicating that the amount of lecithin should be controlled (Guth et al., 1989). Diacylglycerols also have a negative effect on the crystallization rate and on polymorphic transformation. However, there are several types of diacylglycerols each with different properties (Siew and Ng, 2000). For instance, it has been shown that 1.3-dipalmitin increases the melting point of the palm oil while 1.2-dipalmitin decreases the melting point.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is a component often used in CBR and CBS applications to stabilize β′ crystals (Wilson, 1999). It is shown to be one of the most effective emulsifiers for improving both initial gloss as well as bloom stability (Weyland, 1994). However, KOSTERAN-S/3 G also seems to have a negative effect on crystallization rate in these applications. Sorbitan monoesters and monoacylglycerols improve the crystallization rate in CBR and CBS systems because they are insoluble in the fat phase and act as nucleation agents. However, bloom stability does not seem to improve.In summary, the minor components in a fat play a crucial part in fat crystallization, yet there is inadequate understanding of the mechanisms behind their influence. The reason is that the levels are low and individual components often influence each other.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is a component often used in CBR and CBS applications to stabilize β′ crystals (Wilson, 1999). It is shown to be one of the most effective emulsifiers for improving both initial gloss as well as bloom stability (Weyland, 1994). However, KOSTERAN-S/3 G also seems to have a negative effect on crystallization rate in these applications.Lipophilic emulsifiers in the form of KOSTERAN-S/3 G (STS) are used as crystal-modifying agents in fats, where they prevent the formation of the high-melting β-crystal. The function of KOSTERAN-S/3 G is assumed to be due to its ability to co-crystallise with triacylglycerides in the β'-crystal form, preventing a solid-state crystal transition to the higher-melting β-crystal form during storage.7 Other emulsifiers, such as LACTEM or CITREM, provide a similar crystal-modifying function in cocoa butter substitutes (CBS) or cocoa butter replacers (CBR), but are less efficient than KOSTERAN-S/3 G .In the case of the transition from beta (V) into beta (VI), there are a number of possibilities. KOSTERAN-S/3 G (used to inhibit bloom in CBR and CBS systems as well) and similar emulsifiers reportedly slow the polymorphic transformation (Garti et al., 1986). If the desire is to avoid unnecessary items on the label, TAG solutions exist. Milk fat is well known for its bloom inhibiting effect; dark chocolate often has a small amount of milk fat added for this reason. More effective are bloom retarding fats that incorporate saturated TAG having mixed long (C16, C18) and medium (C10-C14) chain fatty acids (Cain et al., 1995). Thus, they are a specific type of lauric fat. They are stable in the beta′ polymorph.KOSTERAN-S/3 G (abbreviation STS), also known as Span 65, a nonionic surfactant that can be used as an emulsifier and stabilizer in food with the European food additive number E492. Its main functions are to retard fat bloom in chocolates and prevent cloudy appearance in cooking oils.Vegetable sourced stearic acid is the most used in the manufacturing process of KOSTERAN-S/3 G and other sorbitan esters of fatty acids. KOSTERAN-S/3 G is used as a water in oil (W/O) emulsifier and when used in combination with polysorbates they can stabilize oil in water (O/W) emulsions. The formulation of the Span/Polysorbate ratio can produce emulsifying systems with various HLB values. KOSTERAN-S/3 G is mainly used as an anti-bloom agent of fat, and also maintains the color and gloss in chocolates.KOSTERAN-S/3 G and lecithin are often used as surface-active substances to reduce viscosity in chocolate formulations. In chocolate, KOSTERAN-S/3 G adjusts sugar crystallization and appearance, also it can reduce stickiness.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is used as an emulsifier that can be used to retard fat bloom by preventing β’ crystals from converting to β crystals when exposed to excessive heat conditions, which tend to migrate to the chocolate surface and thus cause fat bloom. KOSTERAN-S/3 G can be used as an anti-crystallization agent in cooking oils (e.g. palm oil, coconut oil) to prevent oils cloudy appearance which are formed by harden-fast fractions under colder temperatures. KOSTERAN-S/3 G functions as a surfactant in cosmetics and personal care products. Its concentrations typically range between 0.1% and 5% (up to 10%). KOSTERAN-S/3 G has almost no side effects when used as a food additive. It is approved as an indirect food additive by the FDA.Yes, KOSTERAN-S/3 G would be halal, kosher and vegan if the raw material – stearic acid is from natural vegetable oils. However, some manufacturing processes may use stearic acid from animal fats and oils.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is used as an emulsifier and stabiliser. It is produced by the esterification of sorbitol with commercial stearic acid derived from food fats and oils.It is a mixture of the partial esters of sorbitol and its mono- and dianhydride with edible stearic acid.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is produced by the esterification of Sorbitol with commercial edible fatty acids and consists of approximately 95% of a mixture of the esters of Sorbitol and its mono and di-anhydrides.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is an effective emulsifier to retard fat bloom in chocolate. Fat used in chocolate, particularly cocoa butter, forms as a tightly packed β’ polymorph/crystal which is an unstable crystal but is vital for the functional and aesthetic quality of chocolate. If chocolate is not tempered properly or is exposed to excessive heat, these β’ crystals convert to β crystals which are less tightly packed but are more stable. These β crystals tend to migrate to the surface causing fat bloom to occur and also having a negative impact on the aesthetics of the chocolate.KOSTERAN-S/3 G ’s structure mimics the β’ crystals and bonds with such fat crystals and retards their conversion to the less desirable β crystals.KOSTERAN-S/3 G is used as a crystal inhibitor in oils which contain fractions that harden faster during colder temperatures making the oils look cloudy. This cloudy oil is perceived by many as deteriorated oil which it actually is not. It is just aesthetically unacceptable.The addition of KOSTERAN-S/3 G retards the harder fractions from nucleating at lower temperatures and causing cloudiness in oils.KOSTERAN-S/3 G has a structure more similar to a triglyceride than to an emulsifier.KOSTERAN-S/3 G has a structure more similar to a triglyceride than to an emulsifier.In 1947, Krantzconducted life-span studies with Sorbitan palmitate, Sorbitan stearate, KOSTERAN-S/3 G , and Sorbitan oleate. The study reports were only available as secondary source and therefore very limited in documentation of examinations and results. In each study, 30 male rats were exposed to a dietary concentration of 5% test substance in their daily diet, corresponding to 5000 mg/kg bw/d (calculation based on the assumption of an average body weight of 200 g and a daily average food consumption of 20 g). No treatment-related mortality or clinical signs as well as effects on body weights and histopathology were observed. Therefore, a NOAEL of≥5000 mg/kg bw/day was determined for Sorbitan palmitate, Sorbitan stearate, KOSTERAN-S/3 G , and Sorbitan oleate. Likewise, Sorbitan laurate was tested: male rats were fed the test substance in diet for 20.5 months at 5% and for 2 years at 10%, corresponding to 5000 and 10000 mg/kg bw/day (calculation based on the assumption of an average body weight of 200 g and a daily average food consumption of 20 g) (Barboriak 1970). Diarrhea and retarded growth were observed in the animals of the 10% dose group. No effects were observed at histopathology, therefore, a NOAEL was therefore set at 5000 mg/kg bw/d. The same NOAEL was determined in a second chronic study with rats that were fed 5% of the test substance in diet for 2 years (Krantz 1970). Again, no clinical signs were observed and mortality, body weight gain, haematology and histopathology were unaffected.
KRILL OIL
Krill oil is a substance obtained from the sea creature called "Euphausia superba" that lives in the oceans.

Omega 3 fatty acid supplements; It is known to be important in mental development, hyperlipidemia, premenstrual syndromes, inflammatory and cardiological diseases.


Omega-3 fatty acids, which nourish and support the building blocks of our body, cannot be produced by the body.
Omega-3 deficiency can manifest itself in many different ways, especially in productivity and quality of life .
At this point, you may want to use nutritional supplements for a body whose needs are met from head to toe.


Although most of the nutritional supplements containing omega-3 are produced from fish oil, it is now possible to find different sources of omega-3.
Krill oil comes from krill, tiny shrimp-like creatures that live in very cold ocean waters.
Studies show that krill oil might have health benefits similar to those of fish oil.


Shrimp-like crustaceans from the Euphausiacea family are generally called 'Krill' and consist of 86 species.
Euphausia superba, also known as the “Antarctic Krill,” is the most common Krill species in the pristine oceans surrounding Antarctica.
They are at the bottom of the food chain because they feed many marine creatures.


Krill oil, like fish oil, contains omega-3 acids EPA and DHA.
However, krill oil and fish oil differ in the chemical structures of the fatty acids they contain.
Unlike the bright golden yellow color of fish oil that we are used to, krill oil has a red tone color.


Krill oil owes its unique red color to a natural antioxidant it contains.
Krill oil also fights against free radicals with its natural antioxidant content.
Krill oil is the oil of the shellfish, also known as Antarctic krill.


Krill Oil also contains EPA and DHA fatty acids.
Due to its structure, Krill Oil is red in color.
Krill oil can be taken as a supplement when necessary.


Krill Oil is a source of Omega 3 in phospholipid form.
Krill oil is one of the most powerful antioxidants in nature with its natural astaxanthin content.
In addition, risks such as leakage, explosion and oxidation have been minimized with Licaps (liquid capsule) technology, which is produced using fish gelatin.

Due to these properties, krill oil is also considered as an alternative to fish oil.
Krill is a shrimp-like crustacean.
Krill oil, unlike fish oil, has a phospholipid structure and contains "astaxanthin"


Krill oil, an alternative to fish oil , is rich in omega 3 fatty acids.
Although krill oil and fish oil both contain two omega 3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), the omega 3 fatty acids found in krill oil are considered to have a higher bioavailability and absorption rate in the body than fish oil.


Krill oil is an extract prepared from a species of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superb.
Processed krill oil is commonly sold as a dietary supplement.
Krill oil, rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, is an oil obtained from a small sea creature called Euphausia superb.


Two components of krill oil are omega-3 fatty acids similar to those in fish oil, and phospholipid-derived fatty acids (PLFA), mainly phosphatidylcholine (alternatively referred to as marine lecithin).
Fishing for krill where previously the focus was on marine life of higher trophic level is an example of fishing down the food web.


While the word krill means “small fish” in Norwegian, the tiny crustaceans pack a big punch with their sources of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), two omega-3 fatty acids only found in marine life.


Krill Oil contains high levels of eicospentanoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) also known as long-chain omega 3 fatty acids which is essential for good health.
Krill Oil contains the beneficial omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, and a good level of the sought after astaxanthin.


The EPA and DHA in krill oil are bound to phospholipids, which means they are rapidly and readily uptaken into cell membranes, more efficiently than EPA and DHA on triglyceride carriers, such as in fish oils.
Krill Oil is a source of fatty acids that helps to maintain normal blood pressure and heart health.


Krill is a small crustacean with an appearance similar to shrimp.
They are found in the colder waters of the ocean.
Krill primarily serve as a food source for other animals in the ocean, for example - whales, seals, penguins, squid and fish.


Krill is found in the oceans off of Antarctica, Canada, and Japan.
Harvesting of krill is controversial.
There is concern that commercial harvesting of Krill for use in Krill Oil supplements could threaten the species that consume it for food, including whales.


All krill oil sold in nutritional supplements is harvested out of the open ocean, upsetting the natural balance of food supplies for larger marine animals.
Commercial uses of Krill include salmon aquaculture farming, harvesting for use in Krill Oil capsules, as food for home aquariums, and as a human food source.


Krill, known as Okiami has been harvested by the Japanese as a human food source since the 19th century, and is also consumed in South Korea and Taiwan.
Krill has a pink or red appearance due to the plankton that they consume as a food source in the ocean.
Krill Oil is derived from Antarctic krill, small shrimp-like creatures that thrive in the frigid waters of the Southern Ocean.


These minuscule crustaceans form a crucial part of the marine food chain, serving as a primary food source for various marine species, including whales, seals, and penguins.

Krill Oil's most notable constituents include omega-3 fatty acids, specifically eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which play pivotal roles in various physiological processes.

These fatty acids are renowned for their anti-inflammatory properties, which can help alleviate symptoms associated with conditions such as arthritis and promote cardiovascular health by reducing the risk of coronary artery disease and supporting optimal lipid profiles.

Additionally, Krill Oil boasts a potent antioxidant arsenal, including astaxanthin, a carotenoid pigment responsible for the vibrant red hue of krill and various marine organisms.

Astaxanthin exhibits exceptional antioxidant activity, scavenging free radicals and combating oxidative stress, thereby protecting cells from damage and promoting overall health and longevity.



HOW IS KRILL OIL CONSUMED?
Krill Oil is predominantly available in the form of softgel capsules, which are encapsulated to preserve the integrity of the oil and enhance its shelf life.
These capsules are designed for oral consumption, offering a convenient and hassle-free way to incorporate Krill Oil into your daily regimen.
The softgel form also ensures easy digestion and absorption, minimizing any potential discomfort often associated with consuming fish oil supplements.



HOW MUCH KRILL OIL SHOULD BE CONSUMED DAILY?
Determining the optimal dosage of Krill Oil is essential to maximize its health benefits while minimizing the risk of adverse effects.
While individual requirements may vary based on factors such as age, gender, and overall health status, a general guideline suggests a daily intake of 1 to 3 grams of Krill Oil.
However, it is crucial to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to assess your specific needs and tailor the dosage accordingly.



KEY BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL:
*Source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA

BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL:
Studies have shown krill oil may have a variety of health benefits.
Here are some possible ways it can help you.

*Krill Oil may help your heart
Research shows that krill oil may be effective in reducing total cholesterol and triglycerides.
It may also increase HDL (good) cholesterol levels.

*Krill Oil may reduce inflammation
Research shows that omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in krill oil, may decrease blood pressure in some individuals.

Krill oil also contains astaxanthin, a pigment that’s found in carotenoids (it’s also what gives salmon its pink-red color).
Astaxanthin has been shown to also have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, which may help fight the negative effects of free radicals on your brain and nervous system.

*Krill Oil may reduce arthritis and joint pain
Another study examined how krill oil may reduce the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
Those who took 300 milligrams of krill oil each day for 30 days saw an improvement in symptom reduction and used less rescue medication.

*Krill Oil can also help with pain.
A small study gave participants with mild knee pain krill oil for 30 days.
The results showed a significant reduction in pain while they were standing or sleeping.

*Krill Oil may help with PMS symptoms
For those who deal with PMS, using krill oil may help alleviate period pain and other symptoms.
A study compared fish oil to krill oil and while both supplements improved symptoms for those with PMS, the individuals taking krill oil needed less pain medication.



KRILL OIL CONTAINS:
Krill oil contains a natural combination and concentration of the following four key nutrients: Omega-3 (EPA & DHA), Phospholipids, Choline, Astaxanthin

*Brain:
Phospholipids assist in the transportation of omega-3 DHA across the blood-brain barrier.

*Heart:
Krill oil has been shown to lower fasting triglycerides which are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

*Liver:
Choline and omega-3s are important for maintaining healthy liver function and aid fat metabolism.

*Eyes:
Omega-3s are especially important to help keep your eyes healthy, with the highest concentration of DHA in the body found in the retina.

*Skin:
Omega-3s play a role in modulating the hydration and elasticity of the skin.

*Joints:
Omega-3s play an important role in regulating inflammation in the body, which can have a crucial impact in protecting our joints throughout life.



FEATURES OF KRILL OIL:
Krill is a tiny crustacean that is best known as a significant source of omega 3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
These fatty acids contribute to a healthy heart, mind and body.

They have many roles in the body, including:
*Being raw materials for building cell membranes (DHA is particularly important for retina, brain and sperm cells)
*Making eicosanoids - signalling molecules that direct traffic in the world of inflammation, cardiovascular and lung function, and the immune and endocrine systems
*Specifically, helping to lower blood triglycerides and reducing the risk of blockages linked to heart disease
*Providing a source of energy


Krill oil also contains phospholipids.
Phospholipids, like phosphatidylcholine, are an important component of all our cell membranes, and are particularly important in brain cells and cell communication.

When attached to omega 3 fatty acids like in krill oil, phospholipids are responsible for carrying the fatty acids into cells and significantly increase the potency and bioavailability of both EPA and DHA.
This allows us to take less krill oil to get the same benefit as a higher amount of fish oil.

Antarctic krill, like that found in Organika’s Krill Oil, is also rich in the natural antioxidant astaxanthin.
The deep red colour of each capsule is due to this astaxanthin content.

Recognized for the health-promoting suppression of free radicals, astaxanthin helps to keep the oil fresh and protects the omega-3 fatty acids from oxidation and going rancid.
This means no additives are necessary to maintain the long-term stability of the oil.



WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL?
Krill oil contains fatty acids similar to fish oil and is a rich source of omega 3, supports immunity thanks to the antioxidant astaxanthin , can help reduce inflammation as well as arthritis and joint pain, and protects heart health.

Krill oil benefits can be listed as follows:
*Krill oil is a powerful source of antioxidants.

HOW MUCH KRILL OIL SHOULD YOU TAKE?
Since krill oil is not an established treatment, there's no standard dose.
Talk to your healthcare provider to see if krill oil is right for you.



CAN YOU GET KRILL OIL NATURALLY FROM FOODS?
The only source of krill oil is krill.



DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KRILL OIL AND FISH OIL:
Krill oil and oceanic fish oil are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, mainly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
While both contain some EPA and DHA as free fatty acids, krill oil contains particularly rich amounts of choline-containing phospholipids and a phosphatidylcholine concentration of 34 grams per 100 grams of oil.

Krill oil also contains appreciable content of astaxanthin at 0.1 to 1.5 mg/ml, depending on processing methods, which is responsible for its red color.
While fish oil is generally golden yellow in colour, krill oil tends to be reddish.
Krill Oil is generally more expensive to buy as compared to fish oil.



WHAT IS IN KRILL OIL?
Krill contains an oil that is similar to the oils found in fish oils, the omega-3 fatty acids.
Omega-3 fatty acids are recommended for use in lowering triglyceride levels.
Krill Oil use as a supplement to lower blood lipids is increasing in popularity.



KRILL OIL CONTAINS:
The omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic).
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are also found in oils from certain types of fish, vegetables, and other plant sources.
Unlike fish oil, the omega-3 fatty acids in Krill oil are absorbed and carried to the body's cells in phospholipid form.

Omega-3 fatty acids, in combination with diet and exercise, work by lowering the body's production of “bad”, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglycerides, and may raise high density lipoprotein (HDL) “good” cholesterol.

High levels of cholesterol and triglycerides can lead to coronary artery disease, heart disease, and stroke.
Supportive, but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.



WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL?
In the realm of natural supplements, one name has been garnering increasing attention for its myriad health benefits: Krill Oil.

*Extracted from tiny crustaceans found in the icy waters of the Antarctic, Krill Oil has emerged as a powerhouse of essential nutrients, particularly renowned for its omega-3 fatty acid content.

But what exactly is Krill Oil, how does one incorporate it into their daily routine, and what wonders does it hold for our health?
Let's embark on a deep dive into the world of Krill Oil.



HEALTH BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL:
Krill oil's phospholipid-complex of omega-3 and choline provides support to the heart, brain, liver and eyes, with recent research showing benefits in skin and sports segments.



HOW TO USE KRILL OIL:
RECOMMENDED DOSE — (ORAL) ADULTS ONLY:
Take 1 to 2 softgel capsules three times per day.



WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE KRILL OIL?
Krill oil contains EPA and DHA, the same omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, although usually in smaller amounts.
The effects of krill oil have not been researched as thoroughly as those of fish oil.

But a few preliminary studies suggest that krill oil could be superior in some ways.
Krill oil might be better absorbed in the body than fish oil.

One small study found that krill oil, like omega-3s in general, could improve rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis symptoms such as pain, stiffness, and functional impairment.
It also lowered levels of C-reactive protein, a marker for inflammation in the body that's been linked with heart disease.

In addition, krill oil eased symptoms of premenstrual syndrome in another small study.
Because some studies indicate that the fatty acid DHA may benefit a developing child’s brain, krill oil is sometimes taken by pregnant women or given to children.



6 SCIENCE-BASED HEALTH BENEFITS OF KRILL OIL:
1. Excellent Source of Healthy Fats:
Both krill oil and fish oil contain the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA.

However, some evidence suggests that the fats found in krill oil may be easier for the body to use than those from fish oil, since most omega-3 fats in fish oil are stored in the form of triglycerides.

On the other hand, a large portion of the omega-3 fats in krill oil can be found in the form of molecules called phospholipids, which may be easier to absorb into the bloodstream.

A few studies found that krill oil was more effective than fish oil at raising omega-3 levels, and hypothesized that their differing forms of omega-3 fats might be why.

Another study carefully matched the amounts of EPA and DHA in krill oil and fish oil, and found that the oils were equally effective at raising levels of omega-3s in the blood.
More research is needed to determine whether krill oil is actually a more effective, bioavailable source of omega-3 fats than fish oil.


2. Can Help Fight Inflammation
Omega-3 fatty acids like those found in krill oil have been shown to have important anti-inflammatory functions in the body.
In fact, krill oil may be even more effective at fighting inflammation than other marine omega-3 sources because it appears to be easier for the body to use.

What’s more, krill oil contains a pink-orange pigment called astaxanthin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
A few studies have begun to explore the specific effects of krill oil on inflammation.
One test-tube study found that it reduced the production of inflammation-causing molecules when harmful bacteria were introduced to human intestinal cells.


3. Might Reduce Arthritis and Joint Pain
Because krill oil seems to help reduce inflammation, it may also improve arthritis symptoms and joint pain, which often result from inflammation.
In fact, a study that found krill oil significantly reduced a marker of inflammation also found that krill oil reduced stiffness, functional impairment and pain in patients with rheumatoid or osteoarthritis.


4. Could Improve Blood Lipids and Heart Health
Omega-3 fats, and DHA and EPA specifically, are considered heart-healthy.

Research has shown that fish oil may improve blood lipid levels, and krill oil appears to be effective as well.
Studies have shown it may be particularly effective at lowering levels of triglycerides and other blood fats.
One study compared the effects of krill oil and purified omega-3s on cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Only krill oil raised “good” high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
It was also more effective at decreasing a marker of inflammation, even though the dosage was much lower.
On the other hand, the pure omega-3s were more effective at lowering triglycerides.

A recent review of seven studies concluded that krill oil is effective at lowering “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, and may increase “good” HDL cholesterol, too.

Another study compared krill oil to olive oil and found that krill oil significantly improved insulin resistance scores, as well as the function of the lining of the blood vessels.
More long-term studies are needed to investigate how krill oil affects the risk of heart disease.


5. Krill Oil may Help Manage PMS Symptoms
In general, consuming omega-3 fats may help decrease pain and inflammation.
Several studies have found that taking omega-3 or fish oil supplements can help decrease period pain and symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), in some cases enough to decrease the use of pain medication.

It appears that krill oil, which contains the same types of omega-3 fats, may be just as effective.
One study compared the effects of krill oil and fish oil in women diagnosed with PMS.

The study found that while both supplements resulted in statistically significant improvements in symptoms, women taking krill oil took significantly less pain medication than women taking fish oil.
This study suggests that krill oil may be at least as effective as other sources of omega-3 fats at improving PMS symptoms.


6. Krill Oil’s Easy to Add to Your Routine
Taking krill oil is a simple way to increase your EPA and DHA intake.
Krill Oil’s widely available and can be purchased online or at most pharmacies.
The capsules are typically smaller than those of fish oil supplements, and may be less likely to cause belching or a fishy aftertaste.

Krill oil is also typically considered to be a more sustainable choice than fish oil, because krill are so abundant and reproduce quickly.
Unlike fish oil, Krill Oil also contains astaxanthin.



KRILL OIL VS. FISH OIL:
While krill and fish oil both have DHA and EPA, it’s believed that those omega-3 fatty acids found in krill oil have a higher bioavailability — or rate of absorption in your body — than fish oil.

It might have something to do with the DHA and EPA being found as molecules called phospholipids in krill oil.
In fish oil, the DHA and EPA are stored in the form of triglycerides.
More research is needed to determine the exact reason krill oil might be absorbed more easily.

This acid which is used in various industrial branches, especially in the food industry, is obtained as a by-product of potassium during the fermentation of the wine.
L Tartaric Acid is first separated from this mixture by Carl Wilhem Scheele.

The wastes generated in the wine production are neutralized with potassium hydroxide.
L Tartaric Acid is formed by processing calcium tartar with sulfuric acid in the flour.

L Tartaric Acid is used in soda, gelatinous desserts, cleaning and polishing of metals and wool painting.
Antimony potassium tartar is also used asan insecticide and mordant.
L Tartaric Acid accounts for 1.6-2.8% of total acid in grape fruits.

Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) due to the presence of a hydroxyl group adjacent to the carboxyl group.
L(+)-Lactic Acid is used as a synthetic intermediate in many organic synthesis industries and in various biochemical industries.
The conjugate base of lactic acid is called lactate (or the lactate anion).
The name of the derived acyl group is lactoyl.

In solution, it can ionize by a loss of a proton to produce the lactate ion CH
3CH(OH)CO−

2. Compared to acetic acid, its pKa is 1 unit less, meaning lactic acid is ten times more acidic than acetic acid.
This higher acidity is the consequence of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the α-hydroxyl and the carboxylate group.
Lactic acid is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers.

One is known as l-lactic acid, (S)-lactic acid, or (+)-lactic acid, and the other, its mirror image, is d-lactic acid, (R)-lactic acid, or (−)-lactic acid.
A mixture of the two in equal amounts is called dl-lactic acid, or racemic lactic acid.

Lactic acid is hygroscopic. dl-Lactic acid is miscible with water and with ethanol above its melting point, which is about 16 to 18 °C (61 to 64 °F). d-Lactic acid and l-lactic acid have a higher melting point.

Lactic acid produced by fermentation of milk is often racemic, although certain species of bacteria produce solely d-lactic acid.[6]
On the other hand, lactic acid produced by anaerobic respiration in animal muscles has the (l) enantiomer and is sometimes called "sarcolactic" acid, from the Greek sarx, meaning "flesh".

In animals, l-lactate is constantly produced from pyruvate via the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in a process of fermentation during normal metabolism and exercise.[7]
It does not increase in concentration until the rate of lactate production exceeds the rate of lactate removal, which is governed by a number of factors, including monocarboxylate transporters, concentration and isoform of LDH, and oxidative capacity of tissues.[7]

The concentration of blood lactate is usually 1–2 mMTooltip millimolar at rest, but can rise to over 20 mM during intense exertion and as high as 25 mM afterward.
In addition to other biological roles, l-lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), which is a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).
In industry, lactic acid fermentation is performed by lactic acid bacteria, which convert simple carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or galactose to lactic acid.


These bacteria can also grow in the mouth; the acid they produce is responsible for the tooth decay known as cavities.
In medicine, lactate is one of the main components of lactated Ringer's solution and Hartmann's solution.

These intravenous fluids consist of sodium and potassium cations along with lactate and chloride anions in solution with distilled water, generally in concentrations isotonic with human blood.
It is most commonly used for fluid resuscitation after blood loss due to trauma, surgery, or burns.

HISTORY OF L(+)-LACTIC ACID:

Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele was the first person to isolate lactic acid in 1780 from sour milk.[16]
The name reflects the lact- combining form derived from the Latin word lac, meaning "milk".
In 1808, Jöns Jacob Berzelius discovered that lactic acid (actually l-lactate) also is produced in muscles during exertion.[17]

Its structure was established by Johannes Wislicenus in 1873.
In 1856, the role of Lactobacillus in the synthesis of lactic acid was discovered by Louis Pasteur.
This pathway was used commercially by the German pharmacy Boehringer Ingelheim in 1895.

In 2006, global production of lactic acid reached 275,000 tonnes with an average annual growth of 10%.[18]


PRODUCTION OF L(+)-LACTIC ACID:
Lactic acid is produced industrially by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates, or by chemical synthesis from acetaldehyde.[19]
As of 2009, lactic acid was produced predominantly (70–90%)[20] by fermentation.
Production of racemic lactic acid consisting of a 1:1 mixture of d and l stereoisomers, or of mixtures with up to 99.9% l-lactic acid, is possible by microbial fermentation.

Industrial scale production of d-lactic acid by fermentation is possible, but much more challenging.

Fermentative production:
Fermented milk products are obtained industrially by fermentation of milk or whey by Lactobacillus bacteria: Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lacticaseibacillus casei (Lactobacillus casei), Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (Lactobacillus bulgaricus), Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactococcus lactis , Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, and Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus (Streptococcus thermophilus).

As a starting material for industrial production of lactic acid, almost any carbohydrate source containing C5 (Pentose sugar) and C6 (Hexose sugar) can be used.
Pure sucrose, glucose from starch, raw sugar, and beet juice are frequently used.[21]
Lactic acid producing bacteria can be divided in two classes: homofermentative bacteria like Lactobacillus casei and Lactococcus lactis, producing two moles of lactate from one mole of glucose, and heterofermentative species producing one mole of lactate from one mole of glucose as well as carbon dioxide and acetic acid/ethanol.[22]

Chemical production:
Racemic lactic acid is synthesized industrially by reacting acetaldehyde with hydrogen cyanide and hydrolysing the resultant lactonitrile.
When hydrolysis is performed by hydrochloric acid, ammonium chloride forms as a by-product; the Japanese company Musashino is one of the last big manufacturers of lactic acid by this route.
Synthesis of both racemic and enantiopure lactic acids is also possible from other starting materials (vinyl acetate, glycerol, etc.) by application of catalytic procedures.[24]

Biology:
Molecular biology
l-Lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).
Metabolism and exercise
During power exercises such as sprinting, when the rate of demand for energy is high, glucose is broken down and oxidized to pyruvate, and lactate is then produced from the pyruvate faster than the body can process it, causing lactate concentrations to rise.

The production of lactate is beneficial for NAD+ regeneration (pyruvate is reduced to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD+), which is used up in oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during production of pyruvate from glucose, and this ensures that energy production is maintained and exercise can continue.

During intense exercise, the respiratory chain cannot keep up with the amount of hydrogen ions that join to form NADH, and cannot regenerate NAD+ quickly enough, so pyruvate is converted to lactate to allow energy production by glycolysis to continue.[25]

The resulting lactate can be used in two ways:
Oxidation back to pyruvate by well-oxygenated muscle cells, heart cells, and brain cells
Pyruvate is then directly used to fuel the Krebs cycle
Conversion to glucose via gluconeogenesis in the liver and release back into circulation by means of the Cori cycle[26]

If blood glucose concentrations are high, the glucose can be used to build up the liver's glycogen stores.
Lactate is continually formed at rest and during all exercise intensities.

Lactate serves as a metabolic fuel being produced and oxidatively disposed in resting and exercising muscle and other tissues.[25]
Some sources of excess lactate production are metabolism in red blood cells, which lack mitochondria that perform aerobic respiration, and limitations in the rates of enzyme activity in muscle fibers during intense exertion.[26]

Lactic acidosis is a physiological condition characterized by accumulation of lactate (especially l-lactate), with formation of an excessively high proton concentration [H+] and correspondingly low pH in the tissues, a form of metabolic acidosis.[25]
The first stage in metabolizing glucose is glycolysis, the conversion of glucose to pyruvate− and H+:
C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP3− + 2 HPO2−4 → 2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O

When sufficient oxygen is present for aerobic respiration, the pyruvate is oxidized to CO2 and water by the Krebs cycle, in which oxidative phosphorylation generates ATP for use in powering the cell.
When insufficient oxygen is present, or when there is insufficient capacity for pyruvate oxidation to keep up with rapid pyruvate production during intense exertion, the pyruvate is converted to lactate− by lactate dehydrogenase), a process that absorbs these protons:[27]
2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 NAD+
The combined effect is:
C6H12O6 + 2 ADP3− + 2HPO2−4 → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O
The production of lactate from glucose (glucose → 2 lactate− + 2 H+), when viewed in isolation, releases two H+. The H+ are absorbed in the production of ATP, but H+ is subsequently released during hydrolysis of ATP:
ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2−4 + H+
Once the production and use of ATP is included, the overall reaction is
C6H12O6 → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 H+
The resulting increase in acidity persists until the excess lactose and protons are converted back to pyruvate, and then to glucose for later use, or to CO2 and water for the production of ATP.[25]


Neural tissue energy source
Although glucose is usually assumed to be the main energy source for living tissues, there is evidence that lactate, in preference to glucose, is preferentially metabolized by neurons in the brains of several mammalian species that include mice, rats, and humans.
According to the lactate-shuttle hypothesis, glial cells are responsible for transforming glucose into lactate, and for providing lactate to the neurons.

Because of this local metabolic activity of glial cells, the extracellular fluid immediately surrounding neurons strongly differs in composition from the blood or cerebrospinal fluid, being much richer with lactate, as was found in microdialysis studies.[28]

Brain development metabolism:
Some evidence suggests that lactate is important at early stages of development for brain metabolism in prenatal and early postnatal subjects, with lactate at these stages having higher concentrations in body liquids, and being utilized by the brain preferentially over glucose.[28]

It was also hypothesized that lactate may exert a strong action over GABAergic networks in the developing brain, making them more inhibitory than it was previously assumed,[32] acting either through better support of metabolites,[28] or alterations in base intracellular pH levels,[33][34] or both.

Studies of brain slices of mice show that β-hydroxybutyrate, lactate, and pyruvate act as oxidative energy substrates, causing an increase in the NAD(P)H oxidation phase, that glucose was insufficient as an energy carrier during intense synaptic activity and, finally, that lactate can be an efficient energy substrate capable of sustaining and enhancing brain aerobic energy metabolism in vitro.[36]

The study "provides novel data on biphasic NAD(P)H fluorescence transients, an important physiological response to neural activation that has been reproduced in many studies and that is believed to originate predominantly from activity-induced concentration changes to the cellular NADH pools."
Lactate can also serve as an important source of energy for other organs, including the heart and liver.
During physical activity, up to 60% of the heart muscle's energy turnover rate derives from lactate oxidation.



USES OF L(+)-LACTIC ACID:
Polymer precursor[edit]
Two molecules of lactic acid can be dehydrated to the lactone lactide.
In the presence of catalysts lactide polymerize to either atactic or syndiotactic polylactide (PLA), which are biodegradable polyesters.
PLA is an example of a plastic that is not derived from petrochemicals.


Pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications:
Lactic acid is also employed in pharmaceutical technology to produce water-soluble lactates from otherwise-insoluble active ingredients.
It finds further use in topical preparations and cosmetics to adjust acidity and for its disinfectant and keratolytic properties.
Lactic acid containing bacteria have shown promise in reducing oxaluria with its descaling properties on calcium compounds.

Lactic acid is found primarily in sour milk products, such as kumis, laban, yogurt, kefir, and some cottage cheeses.
The casein in fermented milk is coagulated (curdled) by lactic acid.
Lactic acid is also responsible for the sour flavor of sourdough bread.

In lists of nutritional information lactic acid might be included under the term "carbohydrate" (or "carbohydrate by difference") because this often includes everything other than water, protein, fat, ash, and ethanol.

If this is the case then the calculated food energy may use the standard 4 kilocalories (17 kJ) per gram that is often used for all carbohydrates.
But in some cases lactic acid is ignored in the calculation.
The energy density of lactic acid is 362 kilocalories (1,510 kJ) per 100 g.

Some beers (sour beer) purposely contain lactic acid, one such type being Belgian lambics.
Most commonly, this is produced naturally by various strains of bacteria.
These bacteria ferment sugars into acids, unlike the yeast that ferment sugar into ethanol.

After cooling the wort, yeast and bacteria are allowed to "fall" into the open fermenters.
Brewers of more common beer styles would ensure that no such bacteria are allowed to enter the fermenter.
Other sour styles of beer include Berliner weisse, Flanders red and American wild ale.


In winemaking, a bacterial process, natural or controlled, is often used to convert the naturally present malic acid to lactic acid, to reduce the sharpness and for other flavor-related reasons.
This malolactic fermentation is undertaken by lactic acid bacteria.
While not normally found in significant quantities in fruit, lactic acid is the primary organic acid in akebia fruit, making up 2.12% of the juice.

Separately added
As a food additive it is approved for use in the EU,[47] United States[48] and Australia and New Zealand;[49] it is listed by its INS number 270 or as E number E270.

Lactic acid is used as a food preservative, curing agent, and flavoring agent.
It is an ingredient in processed foods and is used as a decontaminant during meat processing.

Lactic acid is produced commercially by fermentation of carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or lactose, or by chemical synthesis.
Carbohydrate sources include corn, beets, and cane sugar

STEREOCHEMISTRY OF L(+)-TARTARIC ACID:
Naturally occurring form of the acid is dextro tartaric acid or L(+)-Tartaric acid (obsolete name d-tartaric acid).
Because L(+)-Tartaric acid is available naturally, it is cheaper than its enantiomer and the meso isomer.

The dextro and levo prefixes are archaic terms.
Modern textbooks refer to the natural form as (2R,3R)-tartaric acid (L(+)-Tartaric acid), and its enantiomer as (2S,3S)-tartaric acid (D-(-)-tartaric acid).
The meso diastereomer is referred to as (2R,3S)-tartaric acid or (2S,3R)-tartaric acid.

Dextro and levo form monoclinic sphenoidal crystals and orthorhombic crystals.
Racemic tartaric acid forms monoclinic and triclinic crystals (space group P1).
Anhydrous meso tartaric acid form two anhydrous polymorphs: triclinic and orthorhombic.

Monohydrated meso tartaric acid crystallizes as monoclinic and triclinic polymorphys depending on the temperature at which crystallization from aqueous solution occurs.
Tartaric acid in Fehling's solution binds to copper(II) ions, preventing the formation of insoluble hydroxide salts.

LABSA Liquid is an anionic surfactants with molecules characterized by a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic group. Alpha-olefin sulfonates (AOS) alkyl sulfates (AS) are also examples of commercial anionic surfactants. They are nonvolatile compounds produced by sulfonation. LABSA Liquid are complex mixtures of homologues of different alkyl chain lengths (C10 to C13 or C14) and phenyl positional isomers of 2 to 5-phenyl in proportions dictated by the starting materials and reaction conditions, each containing an aromatic ring sulfonated at the para position and attached to a linear alkyl chain at any position with the exception of terminal one (1-phenyl). The properties of LABSA Liquid differ in physical and chemical properties according to the alkyl chain length, resulting in formulations for various applications. The starting material LABSA Liquid (linear alkylbenzene) is produced by the alkylation of benzene with n-paraffins in the presence of hydrogen fluoride (HF) or aluminium chloride (AlCl3) as a catalyst. LABSA Liquid is produced by the sulfonation of LAB with oleum in batch reactors. Other sulfonation alternative reagents are sulfuric acid, diluted sulfur trioxide, chlorosulfonic acid and sulfamic acid on falling film reactors. LABSA Liquid are then neutralized to the desired salt (sodium, ammonium, calcium, potassium, and triethanolamine salts). Surfactants are widely used in the industry needed to improve contact between polar and non-polar media such as between oil and water or between water and minerals. Linear alkyl benzene sulphonic acid is mainly used to produce household detergents including laundry powders, laundry liquids, dishwashing liquids and other household cleaners as well as in numerous industrial applications like as a coupling agent and as an emulsifier for agricultural herbicides and in emulsion polymerization. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Household detergents including laundry powders, laundry liquids, dishwashing liquids and other household cleaners. Industrial applications of wetting agent, emulsifier for agricultural herbicides and in polymerization. LABSA Liquid HOMOLOGUES AND SALTS Linear Alkyl benzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA Liquid)/Linear Alkylate Sulfonate (LAS) Linear alkyl benzene sulphonic acid (LABSA Liquid) is prepared commercially by sulfonating linear alkylbenzene (LAB). Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABSA Liquid), the world’s largest-volume synthetic surfactant, which includes the various salts of sulfonated alkylbenzenes, is widely used in household detergents as well as in numerous industrial applications. The LABSA Liquid market is driven by the markets for LABSA Liquid, primarily household detergents. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate was developed as a biodegradable replacement for nonlinear (branched) alkylbenzene sulfonate (BAS) and has largely replaced BAS in household detergents throughout the world. The pattern of LABSA Liquid consumption demonstrates the overwhelming preference by consumers for liquid laundry detergents in North America, whereas powders continue to be the dominant products in Western Europe, Japan, and China. Comparable and reliable data in other world regions are generally unavailable. In these less-developed world areas, LABSA Liquid is essentially used only in laundry powders (particularly in India and Indonesia) and hand dishwashing liquids. The latter are often used as general-purpose cleaners. The following pie chart shows world consumption of LABSA Liquid: About 82–87% of LABSA Liquid is used in household detergents, including laundry powders, laundry liquids, dishwashing liquids, and other household cleaners. Industrial, institutional, and commercial cleaners account for most of the other applications, but LABSA Liquid is also used as an emulsifier (e.g., for agricultural herbicides and in emulsion polymerization) and as a wetting agent. Very small volumes are also used in personal care applications. Demand in the North American household segment fell sharply in 2000–11, as a result of several developments, including reformulations away from LABSA Liquid to alternative surfactants because of cost considerations, the greater use of enzymes, and adverse economic conditions that resulted in lower overall surfactant levels in detergents. However, consumption stabilized during 2011–17. Although consumption of LABSA Liquid will likely stabilize or decline slightly in the highly developed regions, it will increase by 3.0–5.0% in some less-developed regions or countries, such as the Middle East, Africa, India, and China, as well as Southeast Asia. As a result of the rapid growth of LABSA Liquid demand in the Asia Pacific region, demand in the region accounted for over half of global demand in 2017. The worldwide growth of LABSA Liquid will be negatively impacted by the efforts of detergent manufacturers to reduce the active content in their surfactant formulations, by the shift to liquid detergents in some countries (which benefits competing surfactants), and by less consumer overdosing (particularly in North America with unit dose laundry products, assuming they continue to take some market share from traditional liquid detergents). However, consumption of LABSA Liquid will be positively affected in countries/regions such as India, China, Africa, and the Middle East, where powder detergents are still a very large part of the laundry detergent market. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate competes with several other major surfactants for use in household detergents. Some of the competitive surfactants have greater hard-water tolerance and better compatibility with enzymes and are milder than LABSA Liquid. Historically, however, LABSA Liquid has most often been lower in cost and has had other more favorable properties compared with competing surfactants. During 2002–06, very high crude oil prices made LABSA Liquid far less competitive than had been true in most years since its introduction. During 2007–11, LABSA Liquid prices tracked more closely those of the competitive surfactants. This led to a more stable pattern of consumption, even as prices for all surfactants continued to be very volatile. From late 2014 through 2017, low crude oil prices helped LABSA Liquid become more competitive. LABSA Liquid/LAS production is impacted by the supply situation for competing products—mainly alcohol ether sulfates (AES). Shortages in AES supply or its high price has usually favored the use of LABSA Liquid/LAS. In the developing world, LABSA Liquid competes with soaps. Alkylbenzene sulfonates are a class of anionic surfactants, consisting of a hydrophilic sulfonate head-group and a hydrophobic alkylbenzene tail-group. Along with sodium laureth sulfate they are one of the oldest and most widely used synthetic detergents and may be found in numerous personal-care products (soaps, shampoos, toothpaste etc.) and household-care products (laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid, spray cleaner etc.).[1] They were first introduced in the 1930s in the form of branched alkylbenzene sulfonates (BAS) however following environmental concerns these were replaced with linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LABSA Liquid) during the 1960s.[2] Since then production has increased significantly from about 1 million tons in 1980, to around 3.5 million tons in 2016, making them most produced anionic surfactant after soaps. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) are prepared industrially by the sulfonation of linear alkylbenzenes (LABSA Liquid), which can themselves be prepared in several ways.[2] In the most common route benzene is alkylated by long chain monoalkenes (e.g. dodecene) using hydrogen fluoride as a catalyst.[9] The purified dodecylbenzenes (and related derivatives) are then sulfonated with sulfur trioxide to give the sulfonic acid.[10] The sulfonic acid is subsequently neutralized with sodium hydroxide.[1] The term "linear" refers to the starting alkenes rather than the final product, perfectly linear addition products are not seen, in-line with Markovnikov's rule. Thus, the alkylation of linear alkenes, even 1-alkenes such as 1-dodecene, gives several isomers of phenyldodecane.[11] Structure property relationships Under ideal conditions the cleaning power of BAS and LABSA Liquid is very similar, however LABSA Liquid performs slightly better in normal use conditions, due to it being less affected by hard water.[12] Within LABSA Liquid itself the detergency of the various isomers are fairly similar,[13][14] however their physical properties (Krafft point, foaming etc.) are noticeably different.[15][16] In particular the Krafft point of the high 2-phenyl product (i.e. the least branched isomer) remains below 0 °C up to 25% LABSA Liquid whereas the low 2-phenyl cloud point is ∼15 °C.[17] This behavior is often exploited by producers to create either clear or cloudy products..

Infobox references Lactic acid is an organic acid. It has a molecular formula CH3CH(OH)COOH. It is white in the solid state and it is miscible with water.[2] When in the dissolved state, it forms a colorless solution. Production includes both artificial synthesis as well as natural sources. Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) due to the presence of a hydroxyl group adjacent to the carboxyl group. It is used as a synthetic intermediate in many organic synthesis industries and in various biochemical industries. The conjugate base of lactic acid is called lactate. In solution, it can ionize, producing the lactate ion CH 3CH(OH)CO− 2. Compared to acetic acid, its pKa is 1 unit less, meaning lactic acid is ten times more acidic than acetic acid. This higher acidity is the consequence of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the α-hydroxyl and the carboxylate group. Lactic acid is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers. One is known as l-(+)-lactic acid or (S)-lactic acid and the other, its mirror image, is d-(−)-lactic acid or (R)-lactic acid. A mixture of the two in equal amounts is called dl-lactic acid, or racemic lactic acid. Lactic acid is hygroscopic. dl-Lactic acid is miscible with water and with ethanol above its melting point, which is around 16, 17 or 18 °C. d-Lactic acid and l-lactic acid have a higher melting point. Lactic acid produced by fermentation of milk is often racemic, although certain species of bacteria produce solely (R)-lactic acid. On the other hand, lactic acid produced by anaerobic respiration in animal muscles has the (S) configuration and is sometimes called "sarcolactic" acid, from the Greek "sarx" for flesh. In animals, l-lactate is constantly produced from pyruvate via the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in a process of fermentation during normal metabolism and exercise.[6] It does not increase in concentration until the rate of lactate production exceeds the rate of lactate removal, which is governed by a number of factors, including monocarboxylate transporters, concentration and isoform of LDH, and oxidative capacity of tissues.[7] The concentration of blood lactate is usually 1–2 mM at rest, but can rise to over 20 mM during intense exertion and as high as 25 mM afterward.[8][9] In addition to other biological roles, l-lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), which is a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).[10][11] In industry, lactic acid fermentation is performed by lactic acid bacteria, which convert simple carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or galactose to lactic acid. These bacteria can also grow in the mouth; the acid they produce is responsible for the tooth decay known as caries.[12][13][14][15] In medicine, lactate is one of the main components of lactated Ringer's solution and Hartmann's solution. These intravenous fluids consist of sodium and potassium cations along with lactate and chloride anions in solution with distilled water, generally in concentrations isotonic with human blood. It is most commonly used for fluid resuscitation after blood loss due to trauma, surgery, or burns.

In 1808, Jöns Jacob Berzelius discovered that lactic acid (actually l-lactate) also is produced in muscles during exertion.[17] Its structure was established by Johannes Wislicenus in 1873. In 1856, the role of Lactobacillus in the synthesis of lactic acid was discovered by Louis Pasteur. This pathway was used commercially by the German pharmacy Boehringer Ingelheim in 1895. In 2006, global production of lactic acid reached 275,000 tonnes with an average annual growth of 10%.[18] Production Lactic acid is produced industrially by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates, or by chemical synthesis from acetaldehyde.[19] In 2009, lactic acid was produced predominantly (70–90%)[20] by fermentation. Production of racemic lactic acid consisting of a 1:1 mixture of d and l stereoisomers, or of mixtures with up to 99.9% l-lactic acid, is possible by microbial fermentation. Industrial scale production of d-lactic acid by fermentation is possible, but much more challenging. Fermentative production Fermented milk products are obtained industrially by fermentation of milk or whey by Lactobacillus bacteria: Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (Lactobacillus bulgaricus), Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactococcus lactis, and Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus (Streptococcus thermophilus). As a starting material for industrial production of lactic acid, almost any carbohydrate source containing C5 and C6 sugars can be used. Pure sucrose, glucose from starch, raw sugar, and beet juice are frequently used.[21] Lactic acid producing bacteria can be divided in two classes: homofermentative bacteria like Lactobacillus casei and Lactococcus lactis, producing two moles of lactate from one mole of glucose, and heterofermentative species producing one mole of lactate from one mole of glucose as well as carbon dioxide and acetic acid/ethanol.[22] Chemical production Racemic lactic acid is synthesized industrially by reacting acetaldehyde with hydrogen cyanide and hydrolysing the resultant lactonitrile. When hydrolysis is performed by hydrochloric acid, ammonium chloride forms as a by-product; the Japanese company Musashino is one of the last big manufacturers of lactic acid by this route.[23] Synthesis of both racemic and enantiopure lactic acids is also possible from other starting materials (vinyl acetate, glycerol, etc.) by application of catalytic procedures.[24] Biology Molecular biology l-Lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).[10][11] Exercise and lactate During power exercises such as sprinting, when the rate of demand for energy is high, glucose is broken down and oxidized to pyruvate, and lactate is then produced from the pyruvate faster than the body can process it, causing lactate concentrations to rise. The production of lactate is beneficial for NAD+ regeneration (pyruvate is reduced to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD+), which is used up in oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during production of pyruvate from glucose, and this ensures that energy production is maintained and exercise can continue. During intense exercise, the respiratory chain cannot keep up with the amount of hydrogen ions that join to form NADH, and cannot regenerate NAD+ quickly enough. The resulting lactate can be used in two ways: Oxidation back to pyruvate by well-oxygenated muscle cells, heart cells, and brain cells Pyruvate is then directly used to fuel the Krebs cycle Conversion to glucose via gluconeogenesis in the liver and release back into circulation; see Cori cycle[25] If blood glucose concentrations are high, the glucose can be used to build up the liver's glycogen stores. However, lactate is continually formed even at rest and during moderate exercise. Some causes of this are metabolism in red blood cells that lack mitochondria, and limitations resulting from the enzyme activity that occurs in muscle fibers having high glycolytic capacity.[25] In 2004, Robergs et al. maintained that lactic acidosis during exercise is a "construct" or myth, pointing out that part of the H+ comes from ATP hydrolysis (ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2− 4 + H+), and that reducing pyruvate to lactate (pyruvate− + NADH + H+ → lactate− + NAD+) actually consumes H+.[26] Lindinger et al.[27] countered that they had ignored the causative factors of the increase in [H+]. After all, the production of lactate− from a neutral molecule must increase [H+] to maintain electroneutrality. The point of Robergs's paper, however, was that lactate− is produced from pyruvate−, which has the same charge. It is pyruvate− production from neutral glucose that generates H+: Polymer precursor Main article: polylactic acid Two molecules of lactic acid can be dehydrated to the lactone lactide. In the presence of catalysts lactide polymerize to either atactic or syndiotactic polylactide (PLA), which are biodegradable polyesters. PLA is an example of a plastic that is not derived from petrochemicals. Pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications Lactic acid is also employed in pharmaceutical technology to produce water-soluble lactates from otherwise-insoluble active ingredients. It finds further use in topical preparations and cosmetics to adjust acidity and for its disinfectant and keratolytic properties. Foods Lactic acid is found primarily in sour milk products, such as koumiss, laban, yogurt, kefir, and some cottage cheeses. The casein in fermented milk is coagulated (curdled) by lactic acid. Lactic acid is also responsible for the sour flavor of sourdough bread. In lists of nutritional information lactic acid might be included under the term "carbohydrate" (or "carbohydrate by difference") because this often includes everything other than water, protein, fat, ash, and ethanol.[40] If this is the case then the calculated food energy may use the standard 4 kilocalories (17 kJ) per gram that is often used for all carbohydrates. But in some cases lactic acid is ignored in the calculation.[41] The energy density of lactic acid is 362 kilocalories (1,510 kJ) per 100 g.[42] Some beers (sour beer) purposely contain lactic acid, one such type being Belgian lambics. Most commonly, this is produced naturally by various strains of bacteria. These bacteria ferment sugars into acids, unlike the yeast that ferment sugar into ethanol. After cooling the wort, yeast and bacteria are allowed to “fall” into the open fermenters. Brewers of more common beer styles would ensure that no such bacteria are allowed to enter the fermenter. Other sour styles of beer include Berliner weisse, Flanders red and American wild ale.[43][44] In winemaking, a bacterial process, natural or controlled, is often used to convert the naturally present malic acid to lactic acid, to reduce the sharpness and for other flavor-related reasons. This malolactic fermentation is undertaken by lactic acid bacteria. While not normally found in significant quantities in fruit, lactic acid is the primary organic acid in akebia fruit, making up 2.12% of the juice.[45] As a food additive it is approved for use in the EU,[46] USA[47] and Australia and New Zealand;[48] it is listed by its INS number 270 or as E number E270. Lactic acid is used as a food preservative, curing agent, and flavoring agent.[49] It is an ingredient in processed foods and is used as a decontaminant during meat processing.[50] Lactic acid is produced commercially by fermentation of carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or lactose, or by chemical synthesis.[49] Carbohydrate sources include corn, beets, and cane sugar.[51] Forgery Lactic acid has historically been used to assist with the erasure of inks from official papers to be modified during forgery.[52] Cleaning products Lactic acid is used in some liquid cleaners as a descaling agent for removing hard water deposits such as calcium carbonate, forming the lactate, Calcium lactate. Owing to its high acidity, such deposits are eliminated very quickly, especially where boiling water is used, as in kettles. It also is gaining popularity in antibacterial dish detergents and hand soaps replacing Triclosan. See also Hydroxybutyric acid Acids in wine Alanine cycle Biodegradable plastic Dental caries MCT1, a lactate transporter Thiolactic acid Lactic acid, or lactate, is a chemical byproduct of anaerobic respiration — the process by which cells produce energy without oxygen around. Bacteria produce it in yogurt and our guts. Lactic acid is also in our blood, where it's deposited by muscle and red blood cells. It was long thought that lactic acid was the cause of muscle soreness during and after an intense period of exercise, but recent research suggests that's not true, said Michael Gleeson, an exercise biochemist at Loughborough University in the U.K., and author of "Eat, Move, Sleep, Repeat" (Meyer & Meyer Sport, 2020). "Lactate has always been thought of as the bad boy of exercise," Gleeson told Live Science. Contrary to that reputation, lactic acid is a constant, harmless presence in our bodies. While it does increase in concentration when we exercise hard, it returns to normal levels as soon as we're able to rest — and even gets recycled back into energy our body can use later on, Gleeson said. CLOSE How muscles produce lactic acid Throughout most of the day, our body burns energy aerobically — that is, in the presence of oxygen. Part of that energy comes from sugar, which our muscle cells break down in a series of chemical reactions called glycolysis. (We also get energy from fat, but that involves a whole other chemical process). The end product of glycolysis is pyruvate, a chemical that the body uses to produce even more energy. But energy can be harvested from pyruvate only in the presence of oxygen. That changes during hard exercise. Related: Muscle spasms and cramps: Causes and treatments When you break into an all-out sprint your muscles start working overtime. The harder you work, the more energy your muscles need to sustain your pace. Luckily, our muscles have built-in turbo-boosters, called fast-twitch muscle. Unlike slow-twitch muscle, which we use for most of the day, fast-twitch muscle is super-effective at producing lots of energy quickly and does so anaerobically, Gleeson said. Fast-twitch muscle also uses glycolysis to produce energy, but it skips harvesting energy from pyruvate, a process that takes oxygen. Instead, pyruvate gets converted into a waste product, lactic acid, and released into the bloodstream. It's a common misconception that muscle cells produce lactic acid when they can't get enough oxygen, Gleeson said. "That's not the case. Your muscles are getting plenty of oxygen," he said. But in times of intense energy needs, muscles switch to anaerobic respiration simply because it's a much quicker way to produce energy. Other sources of lactic acid Muscle cells aren't the only sources of lactic acid. Red blood cells also produce lactic acid as they roam the body, according to the online text Anatomy and Physiology published by Oregon State University. Red blood cells don't have mitochondria — the part of the cell responsible for aerobic respiration — so they only respire anaerobically. Many species of bacteria also respire anaerobically and produce lactic acid as a waste product. In fact, these species make up between 0.01-1.8% of the human gut, according to a review published in the Journal of Applied Microbiology. The more sugar these little guys eat, the more lactic acid they produce. Slightly more insidious are the lactic acid bacteria that live in our mouths. Because of the acidifying effect they have on saliva, these bacteria are bad news for tooth enamel, according to a study published in Microbiology. Finally, lactic acid is commonly found in fermented dairy products, like buttermilk, yogurt and kefir. Bacteria in these foods use anaerobic respiration to break lactose — milk sugar — into lactic acid. That doesn't mean that lactic acid itself is a dairy product, however — it's 100% vegan. It happens to get its name from dairy simply because Carl Wilhelm, the first scientist to isolate lactic acid, did so from some spoiled milk, according to a study published in the American Journal of Physiology. A young girl eating yogurt out of a cup. Lactic acid is found in fermented dairy products, like yogurt, but lactic acid itself isn't dairy — it's 100% vegan. (Image credit: Shutterstock) Your body on lactic acid It's common to feel a burning in your legs after you squat with heavy weights, or complete a hard workout. But contrary to popular belief, it's not lactic acid that causes the soreness, Gleeson said. Lactic acid is processed by the liver and the heart. The liver converts it back into sugar; the heart converts it into pyruvate. During exercise, concentrations of lactic acid in the body do spike because the heart and liver can't deal with the waste product as quickly as it's produced. But as soon as we're done exercising, lactic acid concentrations go back to normal, Gleeson said. Related: Feel the pain? Don't blame lactic acid. Muscle soreness after exercise most likely has more to do with tissue damage and inflammation, Gleeson said. Hard exercise physically breaks down your muscles, and it can take days for them to recover. Lactic acid can build up to life-threatening levels in the body, according to a review published in the Mayo Clinic Proceedings. But this condition, called acute lactic acidosis, happens because of acute illness or injury, not exercise. When tissues are deprived of blood due to a heart attack or sepsis, for example, they tend to go into anaerobic respiration, producing lactic acid. "They get starved of oxygen," Gleeson said. But Gleeson said he's never heard of a case of life-threatening lactic acidosis because of exercise. "That would be most unusual."

Biology
Molecular biology
Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).

Exercise and lactate
During power exercises such as sprinting, when the rate of demand for energy is high, glucose is broken down and oxidized to pyruvate, and lactate is then produced from the pyruvate faster than the body can process Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid), causing lactate concentrations to rise.
The production of Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) is beneficial for NAD+ regeneration (pyruvate is reduced to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD+), which is used up in oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during production of pyruvate from glucose, and this ensures that energy production is maintained and exercise can continue.
During intense exercise, the respiratory chain cannot keep up with the amount of hydrogen ions that join to form NADH, and cannot regenerate NAD+ quickly enough.

The resulting lactate can be used in two ways:

Oxidation back to pyruvate by well-oxygenated muscle cells, heart cells, and brain cells
Pyruvate is then directly used to fuel the Krebs cycle
Conversion to glucose via gluconeogenesis in the liver and release back into circulation; see Cori cycle
If blood glucose concentrations are high, the glucose can be used to build up the liver's glycogen stores.
However, lactate is continually formed at rest and during all exercise intensities.
Lactate serves as a metabolic fuel being produced and oxidatively disposed in resting and exercising muscle.
Some causes of this are metabolism in red blood cells that lack mitochondria, and limitations resulting from the enzyme activity that occurs in muscle fibers having high glycolytic capacity.
Lactic acidosis is a physiological condition characterized by accumulation of lactate (especially l-lactate), with formation of an excessively low pH in the tissues – a form of metabolic acidosis.

Lactic acidosis during exercise may occur due to the H+ from ATP hydrolysis (ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2−4 + H+), and that reducing pyruvate to lactate (pyruvate− + NADH + H+ → lactate− + NAD+) actually consumes H+.
The causative factors of the increase in [H+] result from the production of lactate− from a neutral molecule, increasing [H+] to maintain electroneutrality.
A contrary view is that lactate− is produced from pyruvate−, which has the same charge.
Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) is pyruvate− production from neutral glucose that generates H+:

C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP3− + 2 HPO2−4 → 2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O
Subsequent lactate− production absorbs these protons:

2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 NAD+
The combined effect is:

C6H12O6 + 2 ADP3− + 2HPO2−4 → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O
Although the reaction glucose → 2 lactate− + 2 H+ releases two H+ when viewed on its own, the H+ are absorbed in the production of ATP.
On the other hand, the absorbed acidity is released during subsequent hydrolysis of ATP:

ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2−4 + H+
So once the use of ATP is included, the overall reaction is

C6H12O6 → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 H+

Neural tissue energy source
Although glucose is usually assumed to be the main energy source for living tissues, there are a few reports that indicate that Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) is lactate, and not glucose, that is preferentially metabolized by neurons in the brain of several mammalian species (the notable ones being mice, rats, and humans).
According to the lactate-shuttle hypothesis, glial cells are responsible for transforming glucose into lactate, and for providing lactate to the neurons.
Because of this local metabolic activity of glial cells, the extracellular fluid immediately surrounding neurons strongly differs in composition from the blood or cerebrospinal fluid, being much richer with lactate, as was found in microdialysis studies.

Brain development metabolism
Some evidence suggests that lactate is important at early stages of development for brain metabolism in prenatal and early postnatal subjects, with lactate at these stages having higher concentrations in body liquids, and being utilized by the brain preferentially over glucose.
Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) was also hypothesized that lactate may exert a strong action over GABAergic networks in the developing brain, making them more inhibitory than Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) was previously assumed, acting either through better support of metabolites, or alterations in base intracellular pH levels, or both.

Studies of brain slices of mice show that β-hydroxybutyrate, Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid), and pyruvate act as oxidative energy substrates, causing an increase in the NAD(P)H oxidation phase, that glucose was insufficient as an energy carrier during intense synaptic activity and, finally, that Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) can be an efficient energy substrate capable of sustaining and enhancing brain aerobic energy metabolism in vitro.
The study "provides novel data on biphasic NAD(P)H fluorescence transients, an important physiological response to neural activation that has been reproduced in many studies and that is believed to originate predominantly from activity-induced concentration changes to the cellular NADH pools."
Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) can also serve as an important source of energy for other organs, including the heart and liver.
During physical activity, up to 60% of the heart muscle's energy turnover rate derives from Lactic acid (2-hydroxypropionic acid) oxidation.
LACTIC ACID (E270)
Lactic Acid (E270) (2-hydroxypropionic acid, CH3-CHOH-COOH) is the most widely occurring organic acid in nature.
Due to Lactic Acid (E270)s chiral a-carbon atom, lactic acid (LA) has two enantiomeric forms.
Of these, L-(+)-Lactic Acid (E270) is more important in food and pharmaceutical industries because humans have only L-lactate dehydrogenase.

MF: C3H6O3
MW: 90.08
EINECS: 200-018-0

The chemical behavior of Lactic Acid (E270) is mostly determined by the two functional groups.
Besides the acidic character in aqueous medium, the bifunctionality (a terminal carboxylic acid and a hydroxyl group) allows Lactic Acid (E270) molecules to form ‘‘interesters’’ such as the cyclic dimers, the trimers, or longer lactic acid oligomers.
After Lactic Acid (E270)s first isolation by the Swedish chemist Scheel in 1780 from sour milk, lactic acid has been produced commercially since the 1880s in the United States and later in Europe.
Worldwide, Lactic Acid (E270) production was approximately 250,000 metric tons per year in 2012 and is expected to reach 330,000 metric tons by the year 2015, with an average price of 1.25 US$ per kilogram in 2013 (food grade, 80–85 % purity).
Approximately 85 % of the demand for LA is from the food industry.
The primary use of Lactic Acid (E270) is as a pH-adjusting agent in the beverage sector and as a preservative in the food industry.
Lactic Acid (E270) is included in the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a food ingredient and was deemed safe by the European Food Safety Authority as well.
The acceptable daily intake for Lactic Acid (E270) was defined by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives as ‘‘not limited,’’ and it is also supported by the Scientific Committee of Food.
In recent decades, the consumption of Lactic Acid (E270) due to its novel applications has grown quite rapidly, by 19 % per year.
Nonfood use of Lactic Acid (E270) for polymer production contributes to this growth.
Biodegradable polylactic acid is considered to be an environmentally friendly alternative to other plastics from petroleum.

Lactic Acid (E270) is used in various fields, including drug delivery systems, medical devices, fibers, and packaging materials.

Compared to acetic acid, Lactic Acid (E270)'s pKa is 1 unit less, meaning Lactic Acid (E270) is ten times more acidic than acetic acid.
This higher acidity is the consequence of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the α-hydroxyl and the carboxylate group.
Lactic Acid (E270) is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers.
One is known as l-lactic acid, (S)-lactic acid, or (+)-lactic acid, and the other, Lactic Acid (E270)'s mirror image, is d-lactic acid, (R)-lactic acid, or (−)-lactic acid.
A mixture of the two in equal amounts is called dl-lactic acid, or racemic lactic acid.
Lactic Acid (E270) is hygroscopic.
dl-Lactic acid is miscible with water and with ethanol above its melting point, which is about 16 to 18 °C (61 to 64 °F).
d-Lactic acid and l-lactic acid have a higher melting point.
Lactic Acid (E270) produced by fermentation of milk is often racemic, although certain species of bacteria produce solely d-lactic acid.

On the other hand, Lactic Acid (E270) produced by anaerobic respiration in animal muscles has the (l) enantiomer and is sometimes called "sarcolactic" acid, from the Greek sarx, meaning "flesh".
In animals, l-lactate is constantly produced from pyruvate via the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in a process of fermentation during normal metabolism and exercise.
Lactic Acid (E270) does not increase in concentration until the rate of lactate production exceeds the rate of lactate removal, which is governed by a number of factors, including monocarboxylate transporters, concentration and isoform of LDH, and oxidative capacity of tissues.
The concentration of blood lactate is usually 1–2 mMTooltip millimolar at rest, but can rise to over 20 mM during intense exertion and as high as 25 mM afterward.
In addition to other biological roles, l-lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), which is a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).
In industry, Lactic Acid (E270) fermentation is performed by lactic acid bacteria, which convert simple carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or galactose to lactic acid.
These bacteria can also grow in the mouth; the acid they produce is responsible for the tooth decay known as caries.

LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID)
DESCRIPTION:
Lactic acid (milk acid) is an organic acid.
Lactic acid (milk acid)has a molecular formula CH3CH(OH)COOH.
Lactic acid (milk acid)is white in the solid state and it is miscible with water.


CAS Number: 50-21-5
EC Number: 200-018-0

When in the dissolved state, Lactic acid (milk acid) forms a colorless solution.
Production includes both artificial synthesis as well as natural sources.
Lactic acid (milk acid)is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) due to the presence of a hydroxyl group adjacent to the carboxyl group.

Lactic acid (milk acid)is used as a synthetic intermediate in many organic synthesis industries and in various biochemical industries.
The conjugate base of Lactic acid (milk acid) is called lactate (or the lactate anion).
The name of the derived acyl group is lactoyl.









In solution, it can ionize by loss of a proton to produce the lactate ion CH3CH(OH)CO−2.
Compared to acetic acid, its pKa is 1 unit less, meaning lactic acid is ten times more acidic than acetic acid.
This higher acidity is the consequence of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the α-hydroxyl and the carboxylate group.

Lactic acid is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers.
One is known as l-lactic acid, (S)-lactic acid, or (+)-lactic acid, and the other, its mirror image, is d-lactic acid, (R)-lactic acid, or (−)-lactic acid.
A mixture of the two in equal amounts is called dl-lactic acid, or racemic lactic acid. Lactic acid is hygroscopic.

dl-Lactic acid is miscible with water and with ethanol above its melting point, which is about 16 to 18 °C (61 to 64 °F).
d-Lactic acid and l-lactic acid have a higher melting point.
Lactic acid produced by fermentation of milk is often racemic, although certain species of bacteria produce solely d-lactic acid.

On the other hand, lactic acid produced by anaerobic respiration in animal muscles has the (l) enantiomer and is sometimes called "sarcolactic" acid, from the Greek sarx, meaning "flesh".

In animals, l-lactate is constantly produced from pyruvate via the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in a process of fermentation during normal metabolism and exercise.
It does not increase in concentration until the rate of lactate production exceeds the rate of lactate removal, which is governed by a number of factors, including monocarboxylate transporters, concentration and isoform of LDH, and oxidative capacity of tissues.

The concentration of blood lactate is usually 1–2 mMTooltip millimolar at rest, but can rise to over 20 mM during intense exertion and as high as 25 mM afterward.
In addition to other biological roles, l-lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), which is a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).


In industry, lactic acid fermentation is performed by lactic acid bacteria, which convert simple carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or galactose to lactic acid.
These bacteria can also grow in the mouth; the acid they produce is responsible for the tooth decay known as caries.
In medicine, lactate is one of the main components of lactated Ringer's solution and Hartmann's solution.

These intravenous fluids consist of sodium and potassium cations along with lactate and chloride anions in solution with distilled water, generally in concentrations isotonic with human blood.
It is most commonly used for fluid resuscitation after blood loss due to trauma, surgery, or burns.

HISTORY OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele was the first person to isolate lactic acid in 1780 from sour milk.
The name reflects the lact- combining form derived from the Latin word lac, meaning "milk".
In 1808, Jöns Jacob Berzelius discovered that lactic acid (actually l-lactate) also is produced in muscles during exertion.
Its structure was established by Johannes Wislicenus in 1873.

In 1856, the role of Lactobacillus in the synthesis of lactic acid was discovered by Louis Pasteur.
This pathway was used commercially by the German pharmacy Boehringer Ingelheim in 1895.
In 2006, global production of lactic acid reached 275,000 tonnes with an average annual growth of 10%.

PRODUCTION OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Lactic acid is produced industrially by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates, or by chemical synthesis from acetaldehyde.
As of 2009, lactic acid was produced predominantly (70–90%) by fermentation.

Production of racemic lactic acid consisting of a 1:1 mixture of d and l stereoisomers, or of mixtures with up to 99.9% l-lactic acid, is possible by microbial fermentation.
Industrial scale production of d-lactic acid by fermentation is possible, but much more challenging.

FERMENTATIVE PRODUCTION OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Fermented milk products are obtained industrially by fermentation of milk or whey by Lactobacillus bacteria: Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lacticaseibacillus casei (Lactobacillus casei), Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (Lactobacillus bulgaricus), Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactococcus lactis , Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, and Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus (Streptococcus thermophilus).

As a starting material for industrial production of lactic acid, almost any carbohydrate source containing C5 (Pentose sugar) and C6 (Hexose sugar) can be used.

Pure sucrose, glucose from starch, raw sugar, and beet juice are frequently used.
Lactic acid producing bacteria can be divided in two classes: homofermentative bacteria like Lactobacillus casei and Lactococcus lactis, producing two moles of lactate from one mole of glucose, and heterofermentative species producing one mole of lactate from one mole of glucose as well as carbon dioxide and acetic acid/ethanol.

CHEMICAL PRODUCTION OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Racemic lactic acid is synthesized industrially by reacting acetaldehyde with hydrogen cyanide and hydrolysing the resultant lactonitrile.
When hydrolysis is performed by hydrochloric acid, ammonium chloride forms as a by-product; the Japanese company Musashino is one of the last big manufacturers of lactic acid by this route.
Synthesis of both racemic and enantiopure lactic acids is also possible from other starting materials (vinyl acetate, glycerol, etc.) by application of catalytic procedures.

BIOLOGY OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Molecular biology
l-Lactic acid is the primary endogenous agonist of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), a Gi/o-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).

During power exercises such as sprinting, when the rate of demand for energy is high, glucose is broken down and oxidized to pyruvate, and lactate is then produced from the pyruvate faster than the body can process it, causing lactate concentrations to rise.
The production of lactate is beneficial for NAD+ regeneration (pyruvate is reduced to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD+), which is used up in oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during production of pyruvate from glucose, and this ensures that energy production is maintained and exercise can continue.
During intense exercise, the respiratory chain cannot keep up with the amount of hydrogen ions that join to form NADH, and cannot regenerate NAD+ quickly enough.

The resulting lactate can be used in two ways:

Oxidation back to pyruvate by well-oxygenated muscle cells, heart cells, and brain cells
Pyruvate is then directly used to fuel the Krebs cycle
Conversion to glucose via gluconeogenesis in the liver and release back into circulation

If blood glucose concentrations are high, the glucose can be used to build up the liver's glycogen stores.
However, lactate is continually formed at rest and during all exercise intensities.
Lactate serves as a metabolic fuel being produced and oxidatively disposed in resting and exercising muscle.

Some causes of this are metabolism in red blood cells that lack mitochondria, and limitations resulting from the enzyme activity that occurs in muscle fibers having high glycolytic capacity.
Lactic acidosis is a physiological condition characterized by accumulation of lactate (especially l-lactate), with formation of an excessively low pH in the tissues – a form of metabolic acidosis.

Lactic acidosis during exercise may occur due to the H+ from ATP hydrolysis (ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2−4 + H+), and that reducing pyruvate to lactate (pyruvate− + NADH + H+ → lactate− + NAD+) actually consumes H+.
The causative factors of the increase in [H+] result from the production of lactate− from a neutral molecule, increasing [H+] to maintain electroneutrality.
A contrary view is that lactate− is produced from pyruvate−, which has the same charge.
It is pyruvate− production from neutral glucose that generates H+:
C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP3− + 2 HPO2−4 →2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O
Subsequent lactate− production absorbs these protons:
2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH → 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 NAD+

Overall:
C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP3− + 2 HPO2−4 → 2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+ + 2 NADH + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O→ 2 CH3CH(OH)CO−2 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ATP4− + 2 H2O
Although the reaction glucose → 2 lactate− + 2 H+ releases two H+ when viewed on its own, the H+ are absorbed in the production of ATP.
On the other hand, the absorbed acidity is released during subsequent hydrolysis of ATP: ATP4− + H2O → ADP3− + HPO2−4 + H+.

So once the use of ATP is included, the overall reaction is
C6H12O6 → 2 CH3COCO−2 + 2 H+
The generation of CO2 during respiration also causes an increase in [H+].

Neural tissue energy source
Although glucose is usually assumed to be the main energy source for living tissues, there are a few reports that indicate that it is lactate, and not glucose, that is preferentially metabolized by neurons in the brain of several mammalian species (the notable ones being mice, rats, and humans).
According to the lactate-shuttle hypothesis, glial cells are responsible for transforming glucose into lactate, and for providing lactate to the neurons.
Because of this local metabolic activity of glial cells, the extracellular fluid immediately surrounding neurons strongly differs in composition from the blood or cerebrospinal fluid, being much richer with lactate, as was found in microdialysis studies.

Brain development metabolism:
Some evidence suggests that lactate is important at early stages of development for brain metabolism in prenatal and early postnatal subjects, with lactate at these stages having higher concentrations in body liquids, and being utilized by the brain preferentially over glucose.
It was also hypothesized that lactate may exert a strong action over GABAergic networks in the developing brain, making them more inhibitory than it was previously assumed, acting either through better support of metabolites, or alterations in base intracellular pH levels, or both.

Studies of brain slices of mice show that β-hydroxybutyrate, lactate, and pyruvate act as oxidative energy substrates, causing an increase in the NAD(P)H oxidation phase, that glucose was insufficient as an energy carrier during intense synaptic activity and, finally, that lactate can be an efficient energy substrate capable of sustaining and enhancing brain aerobic energy metabolism in vitro.

The study "provides novel data on biphasic NAD(P)H fluorescence transients, an important physiological response to neural activation that has been reproduced in many studies and that is believed to originate predominantly from activity-induced concentration changes to the cellular NADH pools."

Lactate can also serve as an important source of energy for other organs, including the heart and liver.
During physical activity, up to 60% of the heart muscle's energy turnover rate derives from lactate oxidation.

Blood testing:
Reference ranges for blood tests, comparing lactate content (shown in violet at center-right) to other constituents in human blood
Blood tests for lactate are performed to determine the status of the acid base homeostasis in the body.
Blood sampling for this purpose is often arterial (even if it is more difficult than venipuncture), because lactate levels differ substantially between arterial and venous, and the arterial level is more representative for this purpose.


USES OF LACTIC ACID (MILK ACID):
Polymer precursor
Two molecules of lactic acid can be dehydrated to the lactone lactide. In the presence of catalysts lactide polymerize to either atactic or syndiotactic polylactide (PLA), which are biodegradable polyesters.
PLA is an example of a plastic that is not derived from petrochemicals.

Pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications:
Lactic acid is also employed in pharmaceutical technology to produce water-soluble lactates from otherwise-insoluble active ingredients.
It finds further use in topical preparations and cosmetics to adjust acidity and for its disinfectant and keratolytic properties.

Lactic acid containing bacteria have shown promise in reducing oxaluria with its descaling properties on calcium compounds.

Foods:
Fermented food:
Lactic acid is found primarily in sour milk products, such as kumis, laban, yogurt, kefir, and some cottage cheeses.
The casein in fermented milk is coagulated (curdled) by lactic acid.
Lactic acid is also responsible for the sour flavor of sourdough bread.

In lists of nutritional information lactic acid might be included under the term "carbohydrate" (or "carbohydrate by difference") because this often includes everything other than water, protein, fat, ash, and ethanol.
If this is the case then the calculated food energy may use the standard 4 kilocalories (17 kJ) per gram that is often used for all carbohydrates.

But in some cases lactic acid is ignored in the calculation.
The energy density of lactic acid is 362 kilocalories (1,510 kJ) per 100 g.

Some beers (sour beer) purposely contain lactic acid, one such type being Belgian lambics.
Most commonly, this is produced naturally by various strains of bacteria.
These bacteria ferment sugars into acids, unlike the yeast that ferment sugar into ethanol.

After cooling the wort, yeast and bacteria are allowed to "fall" into the open fermenters.
Brewers of more common beer styles would ensure that no such bacteria are allowed to enter the fermenter.
Other sour styles of beer include Berliner weisse, Flanders red and American wild ale.

In winemaking, a bacterial process, natural or controlled, is often used to convert the naturally present malic acid to lactic acid, to reduce the sharpness and for other flavor-related reasons.
This malolactic fermentation is undertaken by lactic acid bacteria.
While not normally found in significant quantities in fruit, lactic acid is the primary organic acid in akebia fruit, making up 2.12% of the juice.

As a food additive it is approved for use in the EU,United States and Australia and New Zealand; it is listed by its INS number 270 or as E number E270.
Lactic acid is used as a food preservative, curing agent, and flavoring agent.
Lactic acid is an ingredient in processed foods and is used as a decontaminant during meat processing.

Lactic acid is produced commercially by fermentation of carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or lactose, or by chemical synthesis.
Carbohydrate sources include corn, beets, and cane sugar.

DESCRIPTION


Lactic acid (Milk acid), also known as milk acid, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3H6O3.
Lactic acid (Milk acid) is classified as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) due to its structure containing a hydroxyl group adjacent to the carboxylic acid group.
Lactic acid (Milk acid) exists in two optical isomers: L-Lactic acid (Milk acid) and D-Lactic acid (Milk acid).
The L-Lactic acid form is the most common and is found in various natural sources, including sour milk, yogurt, and fermented foods.

Lactic acid (Milk acid) is produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates, primarily in the muscles during intense exercise when oxygen availability is limited (anaerobic metabolism).
Lactic acid (Milk acid) is also produced by bacteria, such as Lactobacillus species, during the fermentation of sugars in foods, leading to the characteristic sour taste of fermented dairy products.

Lactic acid (Milk acid) has several industrial applications, including its use as a food additive (E270) for acidity regulation, flavor enhancement, and preservation.
Lactic acid (Milk acid) is also utilized in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries for its exfoliating and moisturizing properties.
Additionally, Lactic acid (Milk acid) is used in the production of biodegradable polymers, as a precursor in the synthesis of lactate esters for plasticizers, and in the textile industry for dyeing and finishing processes.

In the body, Lactic acid (Milk acid) plays a crucial role in various metabolic processes.
Lactic acid (Milk acid) serves as an energy source during anaerobic metabolism, helps regulate pH balance in tissues, and contributes to gluconeogenesis (the synthesis of glucose) in the liver.
However, accumulation of Lactic acid (Milk acid) beyond the body's capacity to metabolize it can lead to a condition known as Lactic acid (Milk acid)osis, which is associated with symptoms such as muscle weakness, fatigue, and metabolic acidosis.

IS LACTIC ACID FOOD GRADE VEGAN?
Generally, Lactic Acid Food Grade is vegan because it’s made from or originates from cereals, legumes, or fermented vegetables.
The main exceptions are Lactic Acid Food Grade found in fermented meat and dairy products, which are non-vegan.

But some food manufacturers may have used animal sources to produce human-made Lactic Acid Food Grade.
The only way to find out for certain is to ask the manufacturer directly.



HOW IS LACTIC ACID FOOD GRADE MADE?
Lactic Acid Food Grade is produced through fermentation, a process where yeasts, mold, fungi, or bacteria break down carbohydrates -- like sugar and starch -- into alcohol, gas, and acids.
Fermentation results in food products high in Lactic Acid Food Grade.

*Fermentation can happen naturally.
Yogurt and sourdough, for instance, ferment on their own.
But in most cases, food manufacturers use a starter culture to begin the fermentation process.

A manufacturer takes these steps to create fermented foods:
*Selects a container to limit oxygen exposure
*Adds a brine of water and salt to the container before sealing it
*Puts in the food that needs to be fermented, such as cabbage or cucumber
*As bacteria break down the sugar in the food, carbon dioxide and Lactic Acid Food Grade will form.

Meanwhile, the process removes oxygen, and the food becomes more acidic.
This promotes the growth of more Lactic Acid Food Grade bacteria and suppresses the growth of other microorganisms.

The fermentation process can take anywhere from days to months.
The food manufacturer will then take the fermented food out and store it in a cool place to keep it from spoiling.



WHAT FOODS ARE HIGH IN LACTIC ACID FOOD GRADE?
A few types of foods are high in Lactic Acid Food Grade.
Generally, any food produced through a fermentation process is full of Lactic Acid Food Grade bacteria and other beneficial bacteria.
These include but are not limited to:

*Bread and beer
*Soy products such as tofu and soy milk
*Cheese
*Pickled vegetables such as kimchi and sauerkraut
*Pickled meats such as salami
*Legumes such as beans and peas.

To get the most out of these foods, avoid cooking them over high heat.
This may kill the beneficial bacteria.
Instead, try adding them as toppings or condiments for cooked food.

Fermented foods are delicious and highly varied in texture and flavor.
They make an excellent addition to any meal.

Lactose monohydrate occurs as white to off-white crystalline particles or powder.
Lactose monohydrate is odorless and slightly sweet-tasting.
Spray-dried directcompression grades of Lactose monohydrate are generally composed of 80–90% specially prepared pure a-lactose monohydrate along with 10–20% of amorphous lactose.

Structure and Reactions
Lactose monohydrate is a disaccharide derived from the condensation of galactose and glucose, which form a β-1→4 glycosidic linkage.
Lactose monohydrate's systematic name is β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-D-glucose.
The glucose can be in either the α-pyranose form or the β-pyranose form, whereas the galactose can only have the β-pyranose form: hence α-lactose and β-lactose refer to the anomeric form of the glucopyranose ring alone.

Detection reactions for Lactose monohydrate are the Woehlk- and Fearon's test.
Both can be easily used in school experiments to visualise the different lactose content of different dairy products such as whole milk, lactose free milk, yogurt, buttermilk, coffee creamer, sour cream, kefir, etc.
Lactose monohydrate is hydrolysed to glucose and galactose, isomerised in alkaline solution to lactulose, and catalytically hydrogenated to the corresponding polyhydric alcohol, lactitol.
Lactose monohydrate is a commercial product, used for treatment of constipation.

Uses
Lactose monohydrate is used as a carrier and stabiliser of aromas, pharmaceutical products, Food industry.
Lactose monohydrate is widely used as a binder, filler-binder, and flow aid in direct compression tableting.
Lactose monohydrate's mild flavor and easy handling properties have led to its use as a carrier and stabiliser of aromas and pharmaceutical products.
Lactose monohydrate is not added directly to many foods, because its solubility is less than that of other sugars commonly used in food.
Infant formula is a notable exception, where the addition of Lactose monohydrate is necessary to match the composition of human milk.

Lactose monohydrate is not fermented by most yeast during brewing, which may be used to advantage.
For example, Lactose monohydrate may be used to sweeten stout beer; the resulting beer is usually called a milk stout or a cream stout.
Yeast belonging to the genus Kluyveromyces have a unique industrial application, as they are capable of fermenting Lactose monohydrate for ethanol production.
Surplus lactose from the whey by-product of dairy operations is a potential source of alternative energy.
Another significant Lactose monohydrate use is in the pharmaceutical industry.
Lactose monohydrate is added to tablet and capsule drug products as an ingredient because of its physical and functional properties.
For similar reasons, Lactose monohydrate can be used to dilute illicit drugs such as cocaine or heroin.

Production Methods
A suspension of a-lactose monohydrate crystals in a lactose solution is atomized and dried in a spray drier.
Approximately 10–20% of the total amount of lactose is in solution and the remaining 80–90% is present in the crystalline form.
The spray-drying process predominantly produces spherical particles.
The compactibility of the material and its flow characteristics are a function of the primary particle size of the lactose monohydrate and the amount of amorphous lactose.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Lactose monohydrate is the primary sugar present in milk and the main energy source to a newborn mammalian through its mother′s milk.
Lactose monohydrate is digested by the intestinal lactase (EC 3.2.1.108), an enzyme expressed in newborns.
The enzyme′s activity declines following weaning which can lead to lactose intolerance in adult mammals.

A finely divided form of carbon, practically all of which is made by burning vaporized heavy-oil frac- tions in a furnace with 50% of the air required for complete combustion (partial oxidation).
This type is also called furnace black.
Carbon black can also be made from methane or natural gas by crack- ing (thermal black) or direct combustion (channel black), but these methods are virtually obsolete.
All types are characterized by extremely fine particle size, which accounts for their reinforcing and pig- menting effectiveness.

Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs, CNTs) were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD).
In chemical vapor deposition (CVD), a volatile precursor undergoes thermal decomposition at elevated temperatures to form a solid deposit on a substrate.
1 Carboxylic acid groups can be attached to the defect sides and ends of the nanotube by treatment with oxidizing agents.
Carboxylic acid groups can be easily derivatized into different functional groups.

Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) (with subtypes acetylene black, channel black, furnace black, lamp black and thermal black) is a material produced by the incomplete combustion of coal tar, vegetable matter, or petroleum products, including fuel oil, fluid catalytic cracking tar, and ethylene cracking in a limited supply of air.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) is a form of paracrystalline carbon that has a high surface-area-to-volume ratio, albeit lower than that of activated carbon.

Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) is dissimilar to soot in its much higher surface-area-to-volume ratio and significantly lower (negligible and non-bioavailable) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) content.
However, Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) can be used as a model compound for diesel soot to better understand how diesel soot behaves under various reaction conditions as carbon black and diesel soot have some similar properties such as particle sizes, densities, and copolymer adsorption abilities that contribute to them having similar behaviours under various reactions such as oxidation experiments.

Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) is used as a colorant and reinforcing filler in tires and other rubber products; pigment and wear protection additive in plastics, paints, and ink pigment.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) is used in the EU as a food colorant when produced from vegetable matter.
The current International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) evaluation is that, "Carbon black is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B)".
Short-term exposure to high concentrations of Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) dust may produce discomfort to the upper respiratory tract through mechanical irritation.

Production method
Natural gas tank method of making carbon black: take natural gas as raw material and use iron pipe to send it into the combustion chamber.
The form of the combustion chamber can be either long and short and is made of iron plate.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) contains a number of olefin burner inside it.
Natural gas is sprayed with appropriate force from the burner nozzle and burned in the case of insufficient air, that is, to generate a bright and black smoke flame.
The flame then goes directly into the channel iron with the distance between the burner and the slot surface being 65~80 mm.

At this time, the temperature of olefin burning is reduced from about 1000 to 1400 ° C to about 500 ° C, and the carbon black is accumulated.
The groove can move back and forth horizontally, with a moving speed of 3 to 4 mm/s.
In order to maintain normal production, the required amount of air is about 2.5 to 3 times the theoretical calculation.
The resulting carbon black was scraped into a funnel with a fixed doctor blade and sent to a central packing chamber for disposal.

Then the carbon black is softened, filtered to remove the hard particles and scale and further sent into the mill grinding to enable more uniform thickness.
However, the body is still very light and loose, thus should be shaken to a become a bit solid.
Then add a small amount of water to the carbon black to make Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) into paste-like shape and have a small needle rotated inside Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) to forming micro-pellets, followed by drying to obtain the finished product.
In the case of using pigment for carbon black, in order to facilitate the dispersion, the granulation is unnecessary.

The process is as follows:
Raw gas, air → combustion cracking → collection → granulation → packaging → finished product.
Carbon black is one of the oldest industrial products.
In ancient times, china has already applied incomplete combustion of vegetable oil for making pigment carbon black.
In 1872, the United States first used natural gas as raw material to produce carbon black using tank method and mainly used it as a coloring agent.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) was not until 1912 when Mott found the reinforcement effect carbon black on the rubber before the carbon black industry had gotten rapid development.
Then Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) had successively developed of a variety of process methods.
At present, oil furnace method is the most efficient and most economical method with the oil furnace black production amount accounting for 70-90% of the total carbon black production. There are mainly furnace, slot method, thermal cracking, three methods.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) is obtained by the carbonization of the plant material such as peat.
Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black) can also be derived from the carbonization of cocoa shell and beef bone or from the combustion of vegetable oil.

Health Hazard
There are no well demonstrated health hazards to humans from acute exposure to Lamp black 101 (Carbon Black).
Commercial carbon black is a spherical colloidal form of nearly pure carbon particles and aggregates with trace amounts of organic impurities adsorbed on the surface.
Potential health effects usually are attributed to these impurities rather than to the carbon itself.
Soots, by contrast, contain mixtures of particulate carbon, resins, tars, and so on, in a nonadsorbed state.

LANOLIN
DESCRIPTION:

Lanolin (from Latin lāna 'wool', and oleum 'oil'), also called wool fat, wool yolk, wool wax, or wool grease, is a wax secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals.
Lanolin used by humans comes from domestic sheep breeds that are raised specifically for their wool.
Historically, many pharmacopoeias have referred to lanolin as wool fat (adeps lanae); however, as lanolin lacks glycerides (glycerol esters), it is not a true fat.

CAS: 8006-54-0
European Community (EC) Number: 232-348-6


Lanolin primarily consists of sterol esters instead.
Lanolin's waterproofing property aids sheep in shedding water from their coats.
Certain breeds of sheep produce large amounts of lanolin.


Lanolin is a principle component of lanolin, which is a natural product obtained from the fleece of sheep.
Lanolin is found in steroid-containing creams/ointments, medicated shampoos, veterinary products, hand lotions, moisturizers, sunscreens, self-tanning creams, lipsticks, makeup removers, foundations, eye shadows, hairsprays, shaving creams, baby oils and products, printing inks, furniture and shoe polishes, lubricants, leather, and paper.

Lanolin's role in nature is to protect wool and skin from climate and the environment; it also plays a role in skin (integumental) hygiene.
Lanolin and its derivatives are used in the protection, treatment, and beautification of human skin

Lanolin is a yellow fat obtained from sheep's wool.
It is used as an emollient, cosmetic, and pharmaceutic aid.
The US federal code of regulations states that lanolin in the concentration range of 12-50% may be included in over the counter skin ointments.
Lanolin is the purified, secreted product of the sheep sebaceous glands.
Lanolin primarily consists of long-chain waxy esters, or sterol esters, that lack glycerides.

For this reason, it is also called wool wax or wool grease.
Lanolin is used in the protection, treatment, and cosmetic enhancement of human skin.
Its hydrophobic properties can help protect skin against infections or skin irritation, as it helps seal in moisture that is already present in the skin.

Lanolin is used as an active ingredient in over the counter topical products such as ointments, lubricants, lotions and facial cosmetics.
Lanolin is also frequently used in protective baby skin treatment and for sore nipples in breastfeeding mothers,.



COMPOSITION OF LANOLIN :
A typical high-purity grade of lanolin is composed predominantly of long chain waxy esters (approximately 97% by weight) with the remainder being lanolin alcohols, lanolin acids and lanolin hydrocarbons.
An estimated 8,000 to 20,000 different types of lanolin esters are present in lanolin, resulting from combinations between the 200 or so different lanolin acids and the 100 or so different lanolin alcohols identified so far.


Lanolin’s complex composition of long-chain esters, hydroxyesters, diesters, lanolin alcohols, and lanolin acids means in addition to its being a valuable product in its own right, it is also the starting point for the production of a whole spectrum of lanolin derivatives, which possess wide-ranging chemical and physical properties.
The main derivatisation routes include hydrolysis, fractional solvent crystallisation, esterification, hydrogenation, alkoxylation and quaternisation.


Lanolin derivatives obtained from these processes are used widely in both high-value cosmetics and skin treatment products.
Hydrolysis of lanolin yields lanolin alcohols and lanolin acids.
Lanolin alcohols are a rich source of cholesterol (an important skin lipid) and are powerful water-in-oil emulsifiers; they have been used extensively in skincare products for over 100 years.

Approximately 40% of the acids derived from lanolin are alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs).
The use of AHAs in skin care products has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years.
Details of the AHAs isolated from lanolin can be seen in the table below.


PRODUCTION OF LANOLIN :
Crude lanolin constitutes about 5–25% of the weight of freshly shorn wool.
The wool from one Merino sheep will produce about 250–300 ml of recoverable wool grease.
Lanolin is extracted by washing the wool in hot water with a special wool scouring detergent to remove dirt, wool grease (crude lanolin), suint (sweat salts), and anything else stuck to the wool.

The wool grease is continuously removed during this washing process by centrifuge separators, which concentrate it into a waxlike substance melting at approximately 38 °C (100 °F).


APPLICATIONS OF LANOLIN :
Lanolin and its many derivatives are used extensively in both the personal care (e.g., high value cosmetics, facial cosmetics, lip products) and health care sectors such as topical liniments.
Lanolin is also found in lubricants, rust-preventive coatings, shoe polish, and other commercial products.
Lanolin is a relatively common allergen and is often misunderstood as a wool allergy.


However, allergy to a lanolin-containing product is difficult to pinpoint and often other products containing lanolin may be fine for use.
Patch testing can be done if a lanolin allergy is suspected.
It is frequently used in protective baby skin treatment and for sore nipples from breastfeeding although health authorities do not recommend it, advise against nipple cleaning and rather recommend improving baby positioning and expressing milk by hand.

Lanolin is used commercially in many industrial products ranging from rustproof coatings to lubricants.
Some sailors use lanolin to create slippery surfaces on their propellers and stern gear to which barnacles cannot adhere.

Commercial products (e.g. Lanocote) containing up to 85% lanolin are used to prevent corrosion in marine fasteners, especially when two different metals are in contact with each other and saltwater.
The water-repellent properties make it valuable in many applications as a lubricant grease where corrosion would otherwise be a problem.
7-Dehydrocholesterol from lanolin is used as a raw material for producing vitamin D3 by irradiation with ultraviolet light.


Baseball players often use it to soften and break in their baseball gloves (shaving cream with lanolin is popularly used for this).
Anhydrous liquid lanolin, combined with parabens, has been used in trials as artificial tears to treat dry eye.

Anhydrous lanolin is also used as a lubricant for brass instrument tuning slides.
Lanolin can also be restored to woollen garments to make them water and dirt repellent, such as for cloth diaper covers.
Lanolin is also used in lip balm products such as Carmex.

For some people, it can irritate the lips.
Lanolin is sometimes used by people on continuous positive airway pressure therapy to reduce irritation with masks, particular nasal pillow masks that can often create sore spots in the nostrils.
Lanolin is a popular additive to moustache wax, particularly 'extra-firm' varieties.

Lanolin is used as a primary lubricating component in aerosol-based brass lubricants in the ammunition reloading process.
Mixed warm 1:12 with highly concentrated ethanol (usually 99%), the ethanol acts as a carrier which evaporates quickly after application, leaving a fine film of lanolin behind to prevent brass seizing in resizing dies.

Lanolin, when mixed with ingredients such as neatsfoot oil, beeswax and glycerol, is used in various leather treatments, for example in some saddle soaps and in leather care products.



STANDARDS AND LEGISLATION ABOUT LANOLIN :
In addition to general purity requirements, lanolin must meet official requirements for the permissible levels of pesticide residues.
The Fifth Supplement of the United States Pharmacopoeia XXII published in 1992 was the first to specify limits for 34 named pesticides.
A total limit of 40 ppm (i.e. 40 mg/kg) total pesticides was stipulated for lanolin of general use, with no individual limit greater than 10 ppm.


A second monograph also introduced into the US Pharmacopoeia XXII in 1992 was entitled 'Modified Lanolin'.
Lanolin conforming to this monograph is intended for use in more exacting applications, for example on open wounds.
In this monograph, the limit of total pesticides was reduced to 3 ppm total pesticides, with no individual limit greater than 1 ppm.


In 2000, the European Pharmacopoeia introduced pesticide residue limits into its lanolin monograph.
This requirement, which is generally regarded as the new quality standard, extends the list of pesticides to 40 and imposes even lower concentration limits.
Some very high-purity grades of lanolin surpass monograph requirements.

New products obtained using complex purification techniques produce lanolin esters in their natural state, removing oxidative and environmental impurities resulting in white, odourless, hypoallergenic lanolin.
These ultra-high-purity grades of lanolin are ideally suited to the treatment of dermatological disorders such as eczema and on open wounds.

Lanolin attracted attention owing to a misunderstanding concerning its sensitising potential.
A study carried out at New York University Hospital in the early 1950s had shown about 1% of patients with dermatological disorders were allergic to the lanolin being used at that time.

By one estimate, this simple misunderstanding of failing to differentiate between the general healthy population and patients with dermatological disorders exaggerates the sensitising potential of lanolin by 5,000–6,000 times.


The European Cosmetics Directive, introduced in July 1976, contained a stipulation that cosmetics which contained lanolin should be labelled to that effect.
This ruling was challenged immediately, and in the early 1980s, it was overturned and removed from the directive.
Despite only being in force for a short period of time, this ruling did harm both to the lanolin industry and to the reputation of lanolin in general.

The Cosmetics Directive ruling only applied to the presence of lanolin in cosmetic products; it did not apply to the many hundreds of its different uses in dermatological products designed for the treatment of compromised skin conditions.

Modern analytical methods have revealed lanolin possesses a number of important chemical and physical similarities to human stratum corneum lipids; the lipids which help regulate the rate of water loss across the epidermis and govern the hydration state of the skin.

Cryogenic scanning electron microscopy has shown that lanolin, like human stratum corneum lipids, consists of a mass of liquid crystalline material.
Cross-polarised light microscopy has shown the multilamellar vesicles formed by lanolin are identical to those formed by human stratum corneum lipids.
The incorporation of bound water into the stratum corneum involves the formation of multilamellar vesicles.

Skin bioengineering studies have shown the durational effect of the emollient (skin smoothing) action produced by lanolin is very significant and lasts for many hours.
Lanolin applied to the skin at 2 mg/cm2 has been shown to reduce roughness by about 35% after one hour and 50% after two hours, with the overall effect lasting for considerably more than eight hours.

Lanolin is also known to form semiocclusive (breathable) films on the skin.
When applied daily at around 4 mg/cm2 for five consecutive days, the positive moisturising effects of lanolin were detectable until 72 hours after final application.
Lanolin may achieve some of its moisturising effects by forming a secondary moisture reservoir within the skin.

The barrier repair properties of lanolin have been reported to be superior to those produced by both petrolatum and glycerol.
In a small clinical study conducted on volunteer subjects with terribly dry (xerotic) hands, lanolin was shown to be superior to petrolatum in reducing the signs and symptoms of dryness and scaling, cracks and abrasions, and pain and itch.
In another study, a high purity grade of lanolin was found to be significantly superior to petrolatum in assisting the healing of superficial wounds.

BENEFITS AND USES OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is classified as an occlusive moisturizer.
This means Lanolin (Wool Fat) works by reducing water loss from the skin, similar to petroleum jelly.
While petroleum can reduce the evaporation of skin's moisture by 98%, Lanolin (Wool Fat) reduces it by between 20% and 30%.

However, many people like that Lanolin (Wool Fat) isn't as heavy as petroleum jelly, making it more pleasant to use.
In skincare products, there's no hard evidence showing Lanolin (Wool Fat) is better than synthetic waxes.
If you like using natural products, though, you may prefer Lanolin (Wool Fat) over synthetics.



KEY FEATURES OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
• Natural skin moisturiser
• Nourishes dry and cracked skin
• Forms a protective barrier
• Lanolin (Wool Fat) is derived from sheep wool
• Lanolin (Wool Fat)'s hydrating use has been known since Ancient Greek times!



WHAT IS LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) USED FOR?
Lanolin (Wool Fat) has many different uses in the world of skin care and cosmetics.
From providing moisturizing benefits to enhancing the texture of the products - Lanolin (Wool Fat) does it all.

*Skin care:
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is valued for its exceptional moisturizing properties.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) acts as a natural emollient, creating a protective barrier that helps to prevent moisture loss and keeps the skin hydrated.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is often incorporated into creams, lotions, and lip balms to alleviate dryness, soothe rough or chapped skin, and promote softness and suppleness

*Cosmetic products:
Lanolin (Wool Fat) serves as a binding agent, helping to hold cosmetic formulations together and providing stability.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) can also enhance the texture and spreadability of products, contributing to a smooth application



ORIGIN OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is obtained through a process of extracting and purifying the wool grease found in sheep's wool.
The wool grease is treated to remove impurities and excess water, resulting in the production of Lanolin (Wool Fat).
This refined Lanolin (Wool Fat) is then further processed to obtain different forms, such as anhydrous Lanolin (Wool Fat) or Lanolin (Wool Fat) oil.



WHAT DOES LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) DO IN A FORMULATION?
*Emollient
*Moisturising
*Skin conditioning



SAFETY PROFILE OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is widely regarded as a safe ingredient for use in cosmetics.
However, it is important to note that individuals can have varying sensitivities, so patch testing is recommended to check for potential allergic reactions before using products containing Lanolin (Wool Fat).
Additionally, Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohol can be considered halal if the specific sourcing and the processing methods are employed.



ALTERNATIVES OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
*GLYCERIN



PRODUCTION OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
Crude Lanolin (Wool Fat) constitutes about 5–25% of the weight of freshly shorn wool.
The wool from one Merino sheep will produce about 250–300 ml of recoverable wool grease.

Lanolin (Wool Fat) is extracted by washing the wool in hot water with a special wool scouring detergent to remove dirt, wool grease (crude Lanolin (Wool Fat)), suint (sweat salts), and anything else stuck to the wool.

The wool grease is continuously removed during this washing process by centrifuge separators, which concentrate it into a waxlike substance melting at approximately 38 °C (100 °F).



COMPOSITION OF LANOLIN (WOOL FAT):
A typical high-purity grade of Lanolin (Wool Fat) is composed predominantly of long chain waxy esters (approximately 97% by weight) with the remainder being Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohols, Lanolin (Wool Fat) acids and Lanolin (Wool Fat) hydrocarbons.

An estimated 8,000 to 20,000 different types of Lanolin (Wool Fat) esters are present in Lanolin (Wool Fat), resulting from combinations between the 200 or so different Lanolin (Wool Fat) acids and the 100 or so different Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohols identified so far.

Lanolin (Wool Fat)’s complex composition of long-chain esters, hydroxyesters, diesters, Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohols, and Lanolin (Wool Fat) acids means in addition to its being a valuable product in its own right, it is also the starting point for the production of a whole spectrum of Lanolin (Wool Fat) derivatives, which possess wide-ranging chemical and physical properties.

The main derivatisation routes include hydrolysis, fractional solvent crystallisation, esterification, hydrogenation, alkoxylation and quaternisation.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) derivatives obtained from these processes are used widely in both high-value cosmetics and skin treatment products.

Hydrolysis of Lanolin (Wool Fat) yields Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohols and Lanolin (Wool Fat) acids.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) alcohols are a rich source of cholesterol (an important skin lipid) and are powerful water-in-oil emulsifiers; they have been used extensively in skincare products for over 100 years.

Approximately 40% of the acids derived from Lanolin (Wool Fat) are alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs).
The use of AHAs in skin care products has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years.



WHERE IS LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) FOUND?
Wool fat is a principle component of Lanolin (Wool Fat), which is a natural product obtained from the fleece of sheep.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) is found in steroid-containing creams/ointments, medicated shampoos, veterinary products, hand lotions, moisturizers, sunscreens, self-tanning creams, lipsticks, makeup removers, foundations, eye shadows, hairsprays, shaving creams, baby oils and products, printing inks, furniture and shoe polishes, lubricants, leather, and paper.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) WOOL AND LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) CREAMS:
Lanolin (Wool Fat) Wool Fat is simply the purest form of Lanolin (Wool Fat) and has not been altered or processed in any way.
This makes it a much more natural and ethical choice than Lanolin (Wool Fat) creams.
Lanolin (Wool Fat) creams, on the other hand, are often processed and contain potentially harmful ingredients.

Many of these creams are made from Lanolin (Wool Fat) that has been extracted from sheep’s wool using harsh chemicals.
This process can strip the Lanolin (Wool Fat) of its natural properties and can cause irritation for people with sensitive skin.
Furthermore, the use of harsh chemicals in the manufacturing process is often seen as unethical.

In contrast, Lanolin (Wool Fat) Wool Fat is ethically sourced and is not exposed to any chemicals during the extraction process.
It is also free from fragrances, colors, and preservatives which can irritate the skin and cause reactions.

Overall, Lanolin (Wool Fat) Wool Fat is a much better choice than Lanolin (Wool Fat) creams.
Its natural and ethical production process makes Lanolin (Wool Fat) a safer and more reliable option for healing inflammation.
Furthermore, Lanolin (Wool Fat) is free from potentially harmful ingredients and fragrances, making it a much healthier choice.

LANOLIN (WOOL FAT)
DESCRIPTION:

LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) (from Latin lāna 'wool', and oleum 'oil'), also called wool fat, wool yolk, wool wax, or wool grease, is a wax secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals.
LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) used by humans comes from domestic sheep breeds that are raised specifically for their wool.
Historically, many pharmacopoeias have referred to Lanolin (wool fat) as wool fat (adeps lanae); however, as Lanolin (wool fat) lacks glycerides (glycerol esters), it is not a true fat.

CAS: 8006-54-0
European Community (EC) Number: 232-348-6


LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) primarily consists of sterol esters instead.
Lanolin (wool fat)'s waterproofing property aids sheep in shedding water from their coats.
Certain breeds of sheep produce large amounts of Lanolin (wool fat).


LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) is a principle component of Lanolin (wool fat), which is a natural product obtained from the fleece of sheep.
LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) is found in steroid-containing creams/ointments, medicated shampoos, veterinary products, hand lotions, moisturizers, sunscreens, self-tanning creams, lipsticks, makeup removers, foundations, eye shadows, hairsprays, shaving creams, baby oils and products, printing inks, furniture and shoe polishes, lubricants, leather, and paper.

Lanolin (wool fat)'s role in nature is to protect wool and skin from climate and the environment; it also plays a role in skin (integumental) hygiene.
LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) and its derivatives are used in the protection, treatment, and beautification of human skin

LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) is a yellow fat obtained from sheep's wool.
LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) is used as an emollient, cosmetic, and pharmaceutic aid.
The US federal code of regulations states that Lanolin (wool fat) in the concentration range of 12-50% may be included in over the counter skin ointments.
Lanolin (wool fat) is the purified, secreted product of the sheep sebaceous glands.
Lanolin (wool fat) primarily consists of long-chain waxy esters, or sterol esters, that lack glycerides.

For this reason, it is also called wool wax or wool grease.
Lanolin (wool fat) is used in the protection, treatment, and cosmetic enhancement of human skin.
Its hydrophobic properties can help protect skin against infections or skin irritation, as it helps seal in moisture that is already present in the skin.

Lanolin (wool fat) is used as an active ingredient in over the counter topical products such as ointments, lubricants, lotions and facial cosmetics.
Lanolin (wool fat) is also frequently used in protective baby skin treatment and for sore nipples in breastfeeding mothers,.

Lanolin (wool fat) is a relatively common allergen and is often misunderstood as a wool allergy.


However, allergy to a Lanolin (wool fat)-containing product is difficult to pinpoint and often other products containing Lanolin (wool fat) may be fine for use.
Patch testing can be done if a Lanolin (wool fat) allergy is suspected.

STANDARDS AND LEGISLATION ABOUT LANOLIN (WOOL FAT) :
In addition to general purity requirements, Lanolin (wool fat) must meet official requirements for the permissible levels of pesticide residues.
The Fifth Supplement of the United States Pharmacopoeia XXII published in 1992 was the first to specify limits for 34 named pesticides.
A total limit of 40 ppm (i.e. 40 mg/kg) total pesticides was stipulated for Lanolin (wool fat) of general use, with no individual limit greater than 10 ppm.


A second monograph also introduced into the US Pharmacopoeia XXII in 1992 was entitled 'Modified Lanolin (wool fat)'.
Lanolin (wool fat) conforming to this monograph is intended for use in more exacting applications, for example on open wounds.
In this monograph, the limit of total pesticides was reduced to 3 ppm total pesticides, with no individual limit greater than 1 ppm.


In 2000, the European Pharmacopoeia introduced pesticide residue limits into its Lanolin (wool fat) monograph.
This requirement, which is generally regarded as the new quality standard, extends the list of pesticides to 40 and imposes even lower concentration limits.
Some very high-purity grades of Lanolin (wool fat) surpass monograph requirements.

New products obtained using complex purification techniques produce Lanolin (wool fat) esters in their natural state, removing oxidative and environmental impurities resulting in white, odourless, hypoallergenic Lanolin (wool fat).
These ultra-high-purity grades of Lanolin (wool fat) are ideally suited to the treatment of dermatological disorders such as eczema and on open wounds.

Lanolin (wool fat) attracted attention owing to a misunderstanding concerning its sensitising potential.
A study carried out at New York University Hospital in the early 1950s had shown about 1% of patients with dermatological disorders were allergic to the Lanolin (wool fat) being used at that time.

By one estimate, this simple misunderstanding of failing to differentiate between the general healthy population and patients with dermatological disorders exaggerates the sensitising potential of Lanolin (wool fat) by 5,000–6,000 times.


The European Cosmetics Directive, introduced in July 1976, contained a stipulation that cosmetics which contained Lanolin (wool fat) should be labelled to that effect.
This ruling was challenged immediately, and in the early 1980s, it was overturned and removed from the directive.
Despite only being in force for a short period of time, this ruling did harm both to the Lanolin (wool fat) industry and to the reputation of Lanolin (wool fat) in general.

The Cosmetics Directive ruling only applied to the presence of Lanolin (wool fat) in cosmetic products; it did not apply to the many hundreds of its different uses in dermatological products designed for the treatment of compromised skin conditions.

Modern analytical methods have revealed Lanolin (wool fat) possesses a number of important chemical and physical similarities to human stratum corneum lipids; the lipids which help regulate the rate of water loss across the epidermis and govern the hydration state of the skin.

Cryogenic scanning electron microscopy has shown that Lanolin (wool fat), like human stratum corneum lipids, consists of a mass of liquid crystalline material.
Cross-polarised light microscopy has shown the multilamellar vesicles formed by Lanolin (wool fat) are identical to those formed by human stratum corneum lipids.
The incorporation of bound water into the stratum corneum involves the formation of multilamellar vesicles.

Skin bioengineering studies have shown the durational effect of the emollient (skin smoothing) action produced by Lanolin (wool fat) is very significant and lasts for many hours.
Lanolin (wool fat) applied to the skin at 2 mg/cm2 has been shown to reduce roughness by about 35% after one hour and 50% after two hours, with the overall effect lasting for considerably more than eight hours.

Lanolin (wool fat) is also known to form semiocclusive (breathable) films on the skin.
When applied daily at around 4 mg/cm2 for five consecutive days, the positive moisturising effects of Lanolin (wool fat) were detectable until 72 hours after final application.
Lanolin (wool fat) may achieve some of its moisturising effects by forming a secondary moisture reservoir within the skin.

The barrier repair properties of Lanolin (wool fat) have been reported to be superior to those produced by both petrolatum and glycerol.
In a small clinical study conducted on volunteer subjects with terribly dry (xerotic) hands, Lanolin (wool fat) was shown to be superior to petrolatum in reducing the signs and symptoms of dryness and scaling, cracks and abrasions, and pain and itch.
In another study, a high purity grade of Lanolin (wool fat) was found to be significantly superior to petrolatum in assisting the healing of superficial wounds.

L-ARGININE
L-arginine, naturally found in various dietary sources like red meat, poultry, fish, and dairy, plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and is converted into nitric oxide in the body, aiding in blood vessel dilation and circulation.
While L-arginine supplementation is popular for conditions like high blood pressure and erectile dysfunction, its effectiveness varies, with some studies suggesting benefits for exercise performance through enhanced nitric oxide production, particularly in certain athletic populations.
However, despite its potential benefits, it's important to note that L-arginine supplementation may not always be necessary, as adequate levels can typically be obtained through a balanced diet rich in protein, with supplements being more relevant in cases of deficiency or specific medical conditions.

L-arginine is an amino acid naturally found in red meat, poultry, fish, and dairy.
L-arginine is necessary for making proteins and is commonly used for circulation.
L-arginine is converted in the body into a chemical called nitric oxide.

Nitric oxide causes blood vessels to open wider for improved blood flow.
L-arginine also stimulates the release of growth hormone, insulin, and other substances in the body.

L-arginine can be made in a lab and used in supplements.
People use L-arginine for chest pain and various blow flow issues, erectile dysfunction, high blood pressure during pregnancy, and a serious disease in premature infants called necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).

L-arginine's also used for many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these other uses.
L-arginine is an amino acid that helps the body make proteins.

L-arginine can be obtained naturally in the diet and is also found in dietary supplement form.
Foods rich in L-arginine include plant and animal proteins, such as dairy products, meat, poultry, fish, and nuts.

In addition to building protein, L-arginine releases nitric oxide in the blood.
Nitric oxide acts to widen blood vessels in the blood stream, which may help aid certain circulatory conditions.

A person’s body naturally produces L-arginine under normal circumstances.
People also get additional L-arginine as part of their regular diet.
Red meats, fish, dairy, and eggs all contain low amounts of L-arginine that help the body to replenish L-arginines necessary resources.

Arginine, also known as l-arginine (symbol Arg or R), is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.
L-arginine contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a side chain consisting of a 3-carbon aliphatic straight chain ending in a guanidino group.

At physiological pH, the carboxylic acid is deprotonated (−COO−), the amino group is protonated (−NH3+), and the guanidino group is also protonated to give the guanidinium form (-C-(NH2)2+), making arginine a charged, aliphatic amino acid.
L-arginine is the precursor for the biosynthesis of nitric oxide.

L-arginine is encoded by the codons CGU, CGC, CGA, CGG, AGA, and AGG.
Arginine is classified as a semiessential or conditionally essential amino acid, depending on the developmental stage and health status of the individual.

Preterm infants are unable to synthesize or create arginine internally, making the amino acid nutritionally essential for them.
Most healthy people do not need to supplement with arginine because L-arginine is a component of all protein-containing foods and can be synthesized in the body from glutamine via citrulline.

Occasionally, a person’s need for L-arginine may exceed the body’s ability to produce or consume L-arginine naturally.
This is often true for older adults or people with certain medical conditions.

In these cases, people may be prescribed artificial L-arginine in the form of oral medication, injections, or creams.
Several potential health conditions may benefit from an increased intake of L-arginine.

L-arginine is an amino acid.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and divided into essential and nonessential categories.

Nonessential amino acids are made in the body, but essential amino acids are not.
As such, they must be provided through dietary intake.

L-arginine is considered semi-essential or conditionally essential, meaning that L-arginine becomes essential under certain circumstances and conditions, including pregnancy, infancy, critical illness, and trauma.
L-arginine’s necessary for the production of nitric oxide, a signaling molecule that’s needed for a variety of bodily processes and functions, including blood flow regulation, mitochondrial function, and cellular communication.

Additionally, L-arginine acts as a precursor to other amino acids, including glutamate, proline, and creatine, and is essential for the health and functioning of your immune system.
Arginine is necessary for the development of T-cells, which are white blood cells that play central roles in immune response.

Because L-arginine has so many critical roles in your body, a deficiency in this amino acid can disrupt cellular and organ function and lead to serious adverse health outcomes.
L-arginine is produced in several ways.
L-arginine can be synthesized from the amino acid citrulline through the breakdown of body proteins, or L-arginine can be obtained through dietary protein intake.

L-arginine’s concentrated in certain protein-rich foods, including meat, poultry, dairy, nuts, soy products, and fish.
The average daily intake of L-arginine from foods is reported to be 4–6 grams.

For reference, research shows that a typical Western diet provides between 25–30% of total arginine present in the body.
Additionally, L-arginine can be obtained by taking supplements.

L-arginine supplements are widely available and can be found in powder, liquid, capsule, and tablet form at grocery stores, supplement stores, and online.
This article mainly focuses on the benefits and uses of L-arginine supplements.

L-arginine is an amino acid that helps make proteins.
L-arginine also becomes the gas nitric oxide (NO) in the body.

NO is important for erectile function because L-arginine helps blood vessels relax, so more oxygen-rich blood can circulate through your arteries.
Healthy blood flow to the arteries of the penis is essential for normal erectile function.

L-Arginine is an amino acid critical to the production of nitric oxide (NO) in the body.
NO helps regulate and improve blood circulation.

L-Arginine cannot be made in the body, but must obtained through food or supplementation.
Kyowa Quality L-Arginine is an pure, allergen-free ingredient that has been manufactured to the highest quality standards.

Eggs, meats, milk, soy proteins, peanuts, and walnuts are all sources of arginine.
The physiologically active form, L-arginine, is obtained by breaking down proteins.

Arginine also may be synthesized in the laboratory.
Because L-arginine may be synthesized in the body, L-arginine is classified as a nonessential amino acid in adults.
However, in children and in people with certain conditions (eg, infection, trauma), L-arginine synthesis may become compromised and then may be considered semi-essential.

Natural ways to get enough L-arginine:
A major benefit of obtaining L-arginine through diet is that L-arginine is difficult to get too much.
Therefore, some of the side effects of consuming too much L-arginine can be avoided.

On the other hand, food consumption alone may not provide enough L-arginine to meet a person’s needs.
A person should discuss their options with their doctor prior to changing their diet.

The best natural source for L-arginine is food high in protein.
For some people, animal proteins, such as red meat (beef), chicken and turkey breast, pork loin, and dairy products, may be the primary source of L-arginine.

For people who do not eat meat, plant-based proteins that contain L-arginine include lentils, chickpeas, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, and soybeans.
People who find they have a deficient amount of L-arginine to meet their needs may want to modify their diet to include foods rich in protein.
A dietician or doctor may be able to make meal plan suggestions to boost natural intake of L-arginine prior to taking supplements.

Uses of L-arginine:
L-arginine supplements are taken by many populations, including athletes and those who have certain medical conditions like high blood pressure, for a variety of reasons.
They’re also used in the clinical setting to treat critically ill people or those with wounds.

Research has shown that L-arginine may offer a variety of potential benefits when used as a supplement.
However, results are mixed, and L-arginine may not be as effective for some conditions as many supplement companies claim.

Athletic performance enhancement:
Limited evidence suggests that L-arginine supplements may enhance exercise performance by increasing nitric oxide in the body, which improves blood flow and oxygenation to muscles.
For example, a 2017 randomized study in 56 male soccer players found that treatment with 2 grams of L-arginine daily for 45 days significantly increased sport performance, compared with a placebo group.

Another small study in 9 men demonstrated that those who drank a beverage containing 6 grams of L-arginine 1 hour before intense exercise had significantly increased blood levels of nitric oxide and were able to exercise longer, compared with a placebo group.
However, most studies investigating this relationship have found that L-arginine is not beneficial for improving athletic performance.
L-citrulline, a precursor to L-arginine that’s discussed later in this article, may be a better choice for boosting athletic performance.

Blood pressure regulation:
L-arginine supplements may benefit those with high blood pressure.
Studies have shown that taking L-arginine supplements may help lower both your systolic (the top number) and diastolic (the bottom number) blood pressure readings.

L-arginine is needed for the production of nitric oxide, which is necessary for the relaxation of the cells that make up blood vessels, as well as blood pressure regulation.
A 2016 review of 7 studies found that supplementing with L-arginine by both oral and intravenous (IV) administration significantly reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure in adults with high blood pressure by up to 5.4 mm/Hg and 3.1 mm/Hg, respectively.

Management of critical illness:
Arginine becomes essential when your body is compromised due to conditions like infection and trauma, and your arginine needs significantly increase due to physiologic demands.
Under these circumstances, your body can no longer fulfill your arginine needs, which must be met through external sources.

Arginine depletion during critical illness or after surgery leads to serious adverse effects, including impaired immune function and blood flow.
To avoid these potential complications, arginine supplements are used frequently in the clinical setting to treat a variety of conditions.
For example, oral or IV arginine is commonly used to treat serious infections like necrotizing enterocolitis in infants, cases of sepsis, burns, chronic disease, and wounds, as well as in pre- and post-surgical and trauma patients.

Blood sugar regulation:
Research shows that L-arginine may benefit those with diabetes by improving glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.
L-arginine is needed for the production of nitric oxide.

Nitric oxide plays important roles in cellular function and how your body responds to insulin, a hormone that shuttles blood sugar from your blood into cells, where L-arginine’s used for energy.
Therefore, increasing nitric oxide availability may help enhance the function of cells that secrete insulin and help your body use blood sugar more efficiently.

Some research has shown that long-term treatment with L-arginine supplements may prevent diabetes in at-risk populations.
A study in 144 people with impaired blood sugar regulation found that treatment with 6.4 grams of L-arginine per day for 18 months reduced the chances of diabetes development over a 90-month period, compared with a placebo group.

Traditional/Ethnobotanical uses of L-arginine:
L-arginine is a nonessential amino acid that may play an important role in the treatment of heart disease due to L-arginines block arterial plaque buildup, blood clots, platelet clumping, and to increase blood flow through the coronary artery.
L-arginine is commonly sold as a health supplement claiming to improve vascular health and treat erectile dysfunction in men.

L-arginine, which is promoted as a human growth stimulant, has also been used in bodybuilding.
In the 1800s, L-arginine was first isolated from animal horn.

Use in specific populations of L-arginine:
The safety of L-arginine has been demonstrated in many populations, including pregnant women and older adults.
However, some people, including those with conditions that affect the liver or kidneys, should avoid L-arginine.

L-arginine supplements are sometimes used in children in the clinical setting and deemed safe when prescribed in appropriate doses.
Yet, arginine supplementation in children should always be monitored by a healthcare provider.

L-arginine’s not recommended to give your child L-arginine unless L-arginine’s medically necessary and was suggested by a healthcare provider.
This advice is extremely important to follow, as giving a child too high a dose of L-arginine may result in serious side effects and can even be fata.

Alternatives of L-arginine:
After consumption, your gut and liver rapidly metabolize L-arginine before L-arginine has the chance to reach systemic circulation.
For this reason, some argue that L-citrulline, a precursor to L-arginine, may be a better choice for increasing arginine levels.

L-citrulline is an amino acid that may be used as an alternative to L-arginine when taken as a supplement.
L-citrulline is a nonessential amino acid that’s a precursor to L-arginine.

L-citrulline is converted into L-arginine through a series of enzymatic reactions that take place primarily in your kidneys.
Research shows that L-citrulline supplements can raise body levels of L-arginine.

In fact, some studies show that L-citrulline is more effective at increasing arginine levels than L-arginine supplements.
Research has likewise shown that L-citrulline supplements may offer benefits similar to those of L-arginine supplements.

For example, similarly to L-arginine, L-citrulline has been shown to help reduce blood pressure and improve erectile dysfunction in some studies.
Additionally, studies show that when L-citrulline used on L-arginines own or in combination with L-arginine, L-arginine may improve athletic performance and enhance muscle recovery in athletes.

Furthermore, some of these studies found that citrulline supplements may be more effective than L-arginine supplements at enhancing athletic performance.
Therefore, athletes may benefit more from L-citrulline or a combination of L-arginine and L-citrulline over L-arginine alone.

Benefits of L-arginine:
L-arginine has two effects: L-arginine turns into nitric oxide and helps the body build protein.
These effects give L-arginine an array of potential benefits that range from heart health and chest pain to helping to build muscles, repair wounds, and improve male fertility.
Although there are many claims about the benefits of L-Arginine, not all of them are supported by scientific research studies.

The following are some examples of researched benefits and uses of L-arginine:
Growth hormone reserve test,
Reducing high blood pressure,
Correcting inborn errors of urea synthesis,
Treating heart disease,
Treating erectile dysfunction (ED),
Easing inflammation of the digestive tract in premature infants,
Controlling blood sugar in people with diabetes.

Additionally, L-arginine may have the potential to help with many other issues.

However, more research needs to be done to evaluate further L-arginine’s potential to do the following:
Improve blood flow,
Heal wounds faster,
Alleviate anxiety,
Treat burns,
Improve kidney function for people with congestive heart failure,
Enhance exercise performance.

L-arginine also helps rid the body of ammonia (a waste product) and stimulates the release of insulin.
In addition, your body uses arginine to make nitric oxide (a compound that relaxes the blood vessels).
Although some studies suggest that L-arginine may benefit certain health conditions, other research shows that L-arginine may have harmful effects on some individuals.

Health Benefits of L-arginine:
By improving blood flow in the body, some proponents claim that L-arginine may help heart conditions, such as chest pain (angina), high blood pressure, leg cramping and weakness due to obstructed arteries (a condition known as intermittent claudication), and erectile dysfunction (ED).
Some people use L-arginine to boost the immune system, improve athletic performance, shorten recovery time after surgery, and promote weight loss.
L-arginine is also used for bodybuilding.

There are several additional areas that researchers are interested in exploring regarding L-arginine and L-arginines effects on the human body.
L-arginine is essential for anyone interested in taking L-arginine as a supplement to talk to their doctor about the potential benefits and risks before starting to use L-arginine.
Also, people should fully understand and examine the claims a manufacturer is making about their product before using L-arginine.

Other potential benefits of L-arginine:
In addition to the potential benefits listed above, some research suggests that L-arginine supplements may be helpful when used in the following ways:
Treatment of erectile dysfunction.
A 2019 review of 10 studies found that taking arginine supplements in doses ranging from 1.5–5 grams daily significantly improved erectile dysfunction, compared with a placebo or no treatment.
Improving blood flow.

Some evidence suggests L-arginine supplements may improve blood vessel function and blood flow in specific populations.
However, study results are conflicting, and many have found that L-arginine has no benefit.

Treating and preventing preeclampsia.
Studies have demonstrated that treatment with L-arginine during pregnancy may help prevent and treat preeclampsia, a dangerous condition characterized by high blood pressure and protein in the urine.
This list is not exhaustive, and L-arginine has been studied for L-arginines potential beneficial effects on various conditions, including obesity, heart disease, cancer, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), infertility, and anxiety, either used on L-arginines own or in combination with other supplements.

However, research on the effects of L-arginine in people with these and many other conditions is limited and inconclusive, highlighting the need for future studies.
In addition to the potential benefits and uses above, many people take L-arginine supplements for a variety of other reasons, including reducing the risk of the common cold and boosting weight loss.
Yet, many of these purported benefits aren’t backed by scientific research.

Some people take L-arginine as a supplement.
As with any supplement, a person should use L-arginine with caution.

Although L-arginine is considered safe in moderate doses, too much L-arginine can have severe side effects, including death.
L-arginine is important to understand how the supplement may interact with the body and with additional medications before taking L-arginine.

Overdose of L-arginine:
As mentioned above, arginine is generally considered safe, even when used in high doses.
However, L-arginine’s possible to take too much arginine, which is especially dangerous for children.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding of L-arginine:
L-arginine is used in pregnancy under certain circumstances, including preeclampsia.
L-arginine supplementation during pregnancy is typically prescribed and monitored by a healthcare provider for a specific reason, such as preeclampsia or the risk of preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

There’s some evidence that L-arginine supplements may improve pregnancy outcomes, as well as fetal and maternal health in women from both high- and low-resource areas.
This is because during pregnancy, the body’s need for L-arginine grows due to fetal development and placental growth.

This increased need may not be met through diet, especially in women living in low-resource settings without access to protein-rich foods.
Additionally, although the increased demand for arginine during pregnancy can be provided through diet, protein or individual amino acid supplements may be necessary under certain circumstances.

This may include women who follow restrictive diets or are experiencing severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, rendering them unable to meet demands through dietary intake.
However, supplements during pregnancy should always be approved and monitored by a healthcare provider.

If you are pregnant and interested in taking supplemental L-arginine, consult your healthcare provider for advice.
L-arginine supplements have not been researched in breastfeeding women.
For this reason, L-arginine’s important to ask your healthcare provider whether taking L-arginine supplements is safe and necessary for your individual needs during breastfeeding.

History of L-arginine:
Arginine was first isolated in 1886 from yellow lupin seedlings by the German chemist Ernst Schulze and his assistant Ernst Steiger.
He named L-arginine from the Greek árgyros (ἄργυρος) meaning "silver" due to the silver-white appearance of arginine nitrate crystals.

In 1897, Schulze and Ernst Winterstein (1865–1949) determined the structure of arginine.
Schulze and Winterstein synthesized arginine from ornithine and cyanamide in 1899, but some doubts about arginine's structure lingered until Sørensen's synthesis of 1910.

LAROFLEX MP 45
Laroflex MP 45 Laroflex MP 45 a copolymer of vinyl chloride and vinyl isobutyl ether. Used as a binder in paints for iron and steel structures, mineral substrates, plastics, shipbuilding and underwater applications, mechanical and automotive engineering, transportation, protection of buildings and in printing inks industry and road marking paints. Compatible with vinyl chloride copolymers, polyacrylates, unsaturated polyester resins, maleate resins, cyclohexanone resins, aldehyde resins, coumarone and hydrocarbon resins. Also compatible with urea resins, alkyd resins modified by oils and fatty acids, natural resins, drying oils, plasticizers, tars and bitumen. Laroflex MP 45 provides hydrolysis resistance.

They can beused for anti-corrosion coatings, for coatings on galvanized steel,other non-ferrous metals, concrete, fiber cement, for road markingpaints, flame-retardant coatings on non-flammable building materials, printing inks, marine and container paints. They are compatiblewith most alkyd resins, dry oils, polyacrylic resins, liquid epoxy resins, tars and bitumens. Overview Laroflex MP 45 grades offer advantages to both manufacturers andusers of coatings: • broad choice of solvents, particularly budget-priced blends ofaromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons • good compatibility with other coatings raw materials • good pigment binding capacity even at high solids • unrestricted choice of pigments and extenders • easy application by all common techniques, no cob-webbingeven at high solids • thermal stability allows force drying • good adhesion on iron, steel and many unrelated coatings systems, good intercoat adhesion • good resistance of properly formulated coatings to aqueousalkalis and acids, salt solutions, to stress from water, humiditychanges, low and cyclic temperatures as well as to chalkingand yellowing • long lasting corrosion protection even under extreme outdoorconditions Differences in properties Laroflex MP 45 grades mainly differ in their viscosities and the rheology of their solutions. Viscosity ranges given in the table relate to20 % solutions in toluene at 23 °C (73 °F). The less polar the solvent,the greater the differences in viscosity. The low-viscous solutions of Laroflex MP 45 and Laroflex MP 45are diluted easiest with aliphatic hydrocarbons, their viscositychanges the least during storage and they produce highest gloss. The high-viscous solutions of Laroflex MP 45 tend to gel, particularly in non-polar solvents. Choosing the right solvent Suitable solvents are aromatic hydrocarbons or their blends withesters and glycolether acetates. Aliphatic hydrocarbons and/oralcohols are used as diluents. Ketones, in general, are less suited since they are retained by vinylchloride polymers longer than other solvents with equal volatility,resulting in slower drying coatings. 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades The diluent fraction of the solvent blend mainly depends on the solvency of the true solvent. Depending on the type of solvent andwhen Laroflex MP 45 or Laroflex MP 45 are used, the diluentproportion must be reduced by up to 40 % as compared with Laroflex MP 45. The diluent proportion can be increased if other raw materials inthe formulation are readily compatible with Laroflex MP 45 gradesand soluble in aliphatic hydrocarbons or alcohols. Examples arehard resins such as Laropal K 80, many alkyd resins, higharomatic grades of tar, soft resins and plasticizers present ingreater proportions.Aromatic hydrocarbons or blends of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons are best suitable for coatings that are to be exposed towater very soon after application.High-volatile solvents and/or diluents produce faster drying coatings.Coatings containing a blend of xylene and butanol instead of xylenealone will dry faster. Polymers release esters more easily than ketones and aromatic hydrocarbons of the same volatility. The mostfavorable low-volatile solvent is ethoxypropyl acetate. Note that thesolvent retention also depends on the other constituents of theformulation. Gloss and flow of coatings can be improved by adding high-boilingsolvents, e.g., ethoxypropyl acetate. High proportions of low-volatilediluents, however, may result in precipitating of binder constituents,impairing both gloss and mechanical properties of the coatings. Greater proportions (20–25 %) of high-boiling solvents, e.g., ethoxypropyl acetate or blends of aromatic hydrocarbons with a boilingrange of 150 °C (302 °F) to 190 °C (374 °F) reduceblistering whichmay occur in airless-sprayed coatings, particularly those with a lowpigment content.High proportions of diluent in the solvent blend reduce the risk ofprevious coats pulling up. Clear or almost clear solutions can be obtained in aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene or Solvesso1 100 as well as inchlorinated hydrocarbons, anone and tetrahydrofuran. Solutionswith other solvents may be somewhat cloudy but will not adverselyinfluence hardness and homogeneity of the film, provided the solution dries to form a clear film. Viscosity behavior of the solution The viscosity of solutions of Laroflex MP 45 grades not only dependson the concentration, the composition of the solvent blend and itstemperature, but also on the conditions under which they are prepared.registered trademark of Exxon Mobil Corporation of 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades The higher the temperature as well as duration and extent of shearforces, the lower the viscosity of the solution will be after coolingdown to room temperature. After extended storage, the viscositymay increase again, an effect that is more pronounced the less thesolvating power and the affinity between solvents and polymer. Unpigmented concentrated solutions of Laroflex MP 45 grades inxylene may tend to gel – often only months after they have beenprepared and without undergoing a gradual increase in viscosity. Adding ketones and esters reduces the tendency to gel, in particular if the binder concentration is high. By adding 10–20 % of analcohol to the solvent blend, gelling generally can be suppressedcompletely. Likewise, no gelling has been observed yet in formulations containing blends of high-boiling aromatics such asby intensive stirring, heating or by milling with pigments. This rheological behavior is quite pronounced in Laroflex MP 45. Itis scarcely noticed in Laroflex MP 45 and not at all in Laroflex MP 45 and Laroflex MP 45. Typical solvent blends 1. Coatings based on Laroflex MP 45 grades without significant amounts of cobinders:of 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades 2. Coatings based on 1:1 blends of Laroflex MP 45 grades and Plasticizing Laroflex MP 45 grades are internally plasticized. Coatings based on 4 F) or polyester resins in larger proportions of 15–30 %. In formulations based on Laroflex MP 45, the plasticizer propotion should be kept some 10–15 % lower than in those based onthe other Laroflex MP 45 grades. Too much plasticizer will adversely affect the hardness and thermostability of the dried coatings and can promote shrinkage, alligatoring and soiling of outdoor coatings. Coatings that have to withstand chemicals and salt water are formulated with plasticizers resistant to saponification, e.g., chlorinated paraffin waxes. Saponifiable plasticizers (phthalates, adulatesor phosphates) can be used when resistance to chemicals is lessimportant. Plastigen G is the plasticizer of choice for coatings onalkaline substrates (e.g., concrete) and for top coats extraordinarilyresistant to yellowing and chalking. Laroflex MP 45 gradesAcronal 4 F and its mixtures with phthalates are particularly suitable to increaseadhesion to aluminum and its alloys and otherdifficult substrates. The flexibility and adhesion of films based on Laroflex MP 45 grades at low temperatures can be increased by using low-viscosity, high-efficiency plasticizers (Palatinol 911 andPlastomoll DOA). Plasticizers which are insoluble in aliphatic hydrocarbons (Palamoll 646) least impair the resistance of filmsbased on Laroflex MP 45 grades to lubricants and fuel oil.Modification by other coatings raw materialsHard resins Solids content, gloss and adhesion can be increased by adding hard resins.Non-saponifiable hard resins such as Laropal K 80 are recommended for coatings resistant to chemicals and water. For nonpale coatings or when less emphasis is put on resistance to light and weathering, coumarone, indene or hydrocarbon resins can beused. Saponifiable hard resins (e.g., maleate or modified phenolicresins) can be used if good resistance to chemicals is not required.Hard resins which are compatible with Laroflex MP 45 grades (e.g.,Laropal K 80 or Laropal A 81) are often able to overcome anyslight incompatibility on the part of other materials present in theformulation. Laropal K 80 and Laropal A 81 increase the diluenttolerance of coatings based on Laroflex MP 45 grades for aliphatic hydrocarbons.Air-drying bindersAir-drying binders reduce the thermoplasticity of Laroflex MP 45 grades.Combined with a predominant proportion of air-drying binder,Laroflex MP 45 grades improve the coating’s • surface drying and thus its initial hardness, • resistance to chemicals and water, • outdoor performance, particularly in industrial environments. If resistance to chemicals and water is essential, the proportion of Laroflex MP 45 should be at least the same as that of the air-drying binder. The lower acid value and average molecular mass of an alkyd resin, the better its compatibility – which should be checked in each case. The most compatible alkyd resins are those containing about 45– 55 % drying or 25–50 % semidrying oils. Other compatible binders are bodied oils with modified phenolic resins, various urethane/alkyd resins and some epoxy resins modified by oil fatty acids. 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades In many cases, air-drying binders can be made perfectly compatible with Laroflex MP 45 grades by including other compatible components, e.g., Laropal K 80, Laropal A 81 or plasticizers. In combinations of Laroflex MP 45 grades with alkyd resins, theamount of white spirit in the solvent blend can often be increasedwell above the proportion normally used in coatings solely containing Laroflex MP 45 grades (see Typical solvent blends earlier in this chapter). If these “hybrid binder” coatings are to be overcoated, care must betaken to ensure that oxidative drying has progressed so far thatthere is no risk of “pulling up” caused by excessive softening of thefirst coat by the solvent phase of the second coat. The tendency ofpulling up can be reduced by increasing the proportion of Laroflex MP 45 grades. Equally, the solvent can be diluted with more whitespirit. Solvent blends whose proportion of diluents increases gradually and only to a limited extent perform best. An example is a blendconsisting of equal parts of xylene and white spirit. Pigmentation Any conventional anti-corrosion pigment can be used in primersbased on Laroflex MP 45 grades as chemical reactions between thetwo are unlikely. Based on our current experience, the binder – ifstored under normal conditions – does not need to be stabilizedagainst attack by active metal powders such as aluminum bronze. If there are any doubts, small proportions of zinc oxide or epoxycompounds may be added. registered trademark of Resolution Nederland B. V. Laroflex MP 45 grades Higher proportions of flake extenders or pigments in the pigmentblend (e.g., talc, micaceous iron oxide or aluminum bronze) improve the coatings’ adhesion and impermeability to water vapor,they also facilitate airless spraying of thick coats. Pigments and extenders resistant to weathering should be preferredfor topcoats. Some extenders – including a few natural magnesium,aluminum or potassium-aluminum silicates as well as barytes –contain impurities, which may cause yellowing of white topcoats. Asmall amount of zinc white generally prevents such discoloration. Pigments resistant to acids and alkalis must be used for coatingsresistant to chemicals. Effective corrosion protection is achieved with coatings having apigment volume concentration (PVC) of 16–35 %. For coatingsparticularly resistant to chemicals, a lower PVC range of 16–22 %should be preferred. Well-formulated high-build finishes, on theother hand, can be pigmented up to about 35 %. In general, thepigmentation level should be limited to 90 % of the critical PVC. Stabilizers Laroflex MP 45 grades are sufficiently stable to dehydrochlorination. Thus no stabilizers are normally needed. Exceptions are coatingsthat are either exposed to heat or unpigmented or – in some casesof coatings based on transparent pigments – exposed to UV radiation for extended periods. Note that chlorinated binders are less stable if moisture or somechemicals are present. Generally, coatings systems based on Laroflex MP 45 grades shouldnot be exposed to heat above 70–80 °C (158–176 °F) for prolongedperiods.Heat stabilizers should be added for force drying at temperatures ofup to 130 °C (266 °F). Adding 2 % Mark®4 17 M and 3 % Drapex439 (respective to Laroflex MP 45) provides adequate stabilization. Dispersants,antisettling agents,thixotropes Some dispersants or antisettling agents, particularly in higher proportions, may act with chlorinated binders to cause corrosion ofmetal containers and thus reduce the coating’s anticorrosion protection. Trials are recommended. Thixotropes derived from hydrogenated castor oil (e.g., Luvotix5 or Thixatrol6 ST) can be used for high-build coatings. Manufacturer’s instructions on their use should be observed. registered trademark of Crompton Vinyl Additives registered registered trademark of Elementis plc 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades Further, suitable thickeners and antisettling agents consist of anapproximately 10 % gel paste made from Bentone®6 38 or Bentone®639 and Anti-Terra®7 U in aromatic solvents. Processing Production of coatings Laroflex MP 45 grades dissolve very rapidly even without heating. Caking is avoided by immediately and uniformly distributing thepowder: thoroughly stirring, it is slowly added to the diluent (aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols). Proportions of Laroflex MP 45 powder and diluent should be approximately equal. Then, solvent(s)and other diluents are added while stirring. Subsequently, plasticizers and combination resins may be added. Solutions of Laroflex MP 45 grades that contain plasticizers and possibly other binder components are used to paste and mill pigments. If alkyd resin cobinders are present in the formulation, thesecan be used to prepare the pigment paste. Application techniques Coatings based on Laroflex MP 45 grades are suitable for all common application techniques such as high-pressure spraying, airlessspraying, hot spraying, brushing, dipping, curtain or roller coatingor paint roller. No cob webbing occurs during the application of coatings basedon Laroflex MP 45 grades even at high solids or if they contain highlyvolatile solvents. Blistering and pore formation during airless spraying can beavoided by keeping the proportion of highly volatile esters (e.g.,ethyl acetate and butyl acetate) in the solvent blend low. The inclusion of high-boiling aromatic hydrocarbons or ethoxypropyl acetatein advantageous. Good results are also obtained with defoamers,especially in paints with low PVC.

Drying Coatings based on Laroflex MP 45 grades surface-dry rapidly butrequire some length of time to through-dry since Laroflex MP 45grades, like all polymers, tend to hold back residual solvent. Consequently, a drying time of one or two days should be left betweencoats to prevent pulling up. Coatings to be exposed to water orliquid chemicals must be allowed to through-dry thoroughly. In thiscase, polar solvents should be avoided as any residual solventcould absorb large amounts of water and cause swelling. Drying time can be reduced by choosing suitable solvent blends,reducing the plasticizer proportion, a higher PVC or adding voluminous extenders or diatomite. Excessive quantities of these extenders and inadequate pigment dispersion can easily lead to porouscoatings with greater permeability to water vapor. Fields of application Industrial corrosion protection Combinations of equal proportions of Laroflex MP 45 grades and airdrying binders have proven effective. Two to three coats of thixotropic high-build coatings are needed toobtain the overall thickness of 200–250 µm necessary for effectivecorrosion protection. Depending on the make-up of the system andthe quality of pigments and extenders, the PVC is 30–40 %. Lowerpigmented gloss coats may be used for top coats. Marine coatings, underwater corrosion protection Coatings having to withstand sea or river water can be formulatedwith Laroflex MP 45 grades and non-saponifiable hydrophobic plasticizers. Combinations with tar and/or hydrocarbon resins can also beused, some of the Laroflex MP 45 proportion may be replaced by apolyamine-cured epoxy resin. A PVC of 35–40 % is ideal for highbuild coatings. These adhere extremely well to sandblasted steel,commercial shop primers and other unrelated coating systems. Laroflex MP 45 grades being resistant to alkalis allow formulatingunderwater coatings that give excellent performance in cathodicprotection and on zinc/ethyl silicate primers. Since high-build coatings based on Laroflex MP 45 grades can be sprayed outstandinglywell, only two or three spray coats are needed to achieve perfectcorrosion protection. 11 of 12 Laroflex MP 45 grades Laroflex MP 45 grades can also be used as binders in antifoulingpaints. Hydrophylic cobinders like Lutonal M 40 approx. 70 % inethanol and/or rosin ensure that the antifouling agent is released ata uniform rate. Machinery, automotive and container finishes Suitable coatings can be formulated from Laroflex MP 45 grades androughly equal amounts of air-drying binder. Coatings on galvanized steel and aluminumAir-drying binders should be avoided in primers and top coats onaluminum or, in particular, galvanized steel. Coatings based onsuch binders could flake or peel off after prolonged exposure tomoisture and fluctuating temperature. Addition of special hardresins, talc and/or micaceous iron oxide allow coats with extremelygood adhesion.

LAURIC ACID FOR PSORIASIS:
Bloggers and natural health websites often recommend coconut oil as a treatment for dry skin and conditions such as psoriasis.
Again, because lauric acid is only part of what makes up coconut oil, it’s difficult to say if the fatty acid alone or a combination of coconut oil components is responsible for these benefits.



LAURIC ACID FOR ACNE:
Because lauric acid has antibacterial properties, it’s been found to effectively combat acne.
The bacteria Propionibacterium acnes are found naturally on the skin.
When they overgrow, they lead to the development of acne.
The results of a 2009 study found that lauric acid could reduce inflammation and the number of bacteria present.

Lauric acid worked even better than benzoyl peroxide, a common acne treatment.
A 2016 study also reconfirmed the acne-fighting properties of lauric acid.
This doesn’t mean you should put coconut oil on your acne.
The researchers used pure lauric acid and suggested that it could be developed into an antibiotic therapy for acne in the future.



HOW TO USE LAURIC ACID:
To reap the topical benefits of lauric acid and coconut oil, apply it directly to your skin.
While this isn’t recommended for people with acne, the risks are minimal when it comes to addressing issues such as skin hydration and psoriasis.
Coconut oil can be used in cooking as well.
Its sweet, nutty flavor makes Lauric Acid the perfect addition to desserts, including double chocolate paleo brownies and paleo banana bread.
You can also use Lauric Acid to sauté vegetables or to add flavor to mashed sweet potatoes or a Caribbean curry soup.

WHERE TO FIND LAURIC ACID:
Lauric acid is a powerful substance that’s sometimes extracted from the coconut for use in developing monolaurin.
Monolaurin is an antimicrobial agent that’s able to fight pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and yeasts.



NUTRITIONAL AND MEDICAL ASPECTS OF LAURIC ACID:
Although 95% of medium-chain triglycerides are absorbed through the portal vein, only 25–30% of lauric acid is absorbed through it.
Lauric acid increases total serum lipoproteins more than many other fatty acids, but mostly high-density lipoprotein (HDL).
As a result, lauric acid has been characterized as having "a more favorable effect on total HDL than any other fatty acid [examined], either saturated or unsaturated".

In general, a lower total/HDL serum lipoprotein ratio correlates with a decrease in atherosclerotic incidence.
Nonetheless, an extensive meta-analysis on foods affecting the total LDL/serum lipoprotein ratio found in 2003 that the net effects of lauric acid on coronary artery disease outcomes remained uncertain.
A 2016 review of coconut oil (which is nearly half lauric acid) was similarly inconclusive about the effects on cardiovascular disease incidence

Laurostearic Acid is a carboxylic acid.
Carboxylic acids donate hydrogen ions if a base is present to accept them.

They react in this way with all bases, both organic (for example, the amines) and inorganic.
Their reactions with bases, called "neutralizations'', are accompanied by the evolution of substantial amounts of heat.
Neutralization between an acid and a base produces water plus a salt.

Carboxylic acids in aqueous solution and liquid or molten carboxylic acids can react with active metals to form gaseous hydrogen and a metal salt.
Such reactions occur in principle for solid carboxylic acids as well, but are slow if the solid acid remains dry.
Even "insoluble" carboxylic acids may absorb enough water from the air and dissolve sufficiently in Laurostearic Acid to corrode or dissolve iron, steel, and aluminum parts and containers.

Carboxylic acids, like other acids, react with cyanide salts to generate gaseous hydrogen cyanide.
The reaction is slower for dry, solid carboxylic acids.

Insoluble carboxylic acids react with solutions of cyanides to cause the release of gaseous hydrogen cyanide.
Flammable and/or toxic gases and heat are generated by the reaction of carboxylic acids with diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercaptans, nitrides, and sulfides.
Carboxylic acids, especially in aqueous solution, also react with sulfites, nitrites, thiosulfates (to give H2S and SO3), dithionite (SO2), to generate flammable and/or toxic gases and heat.

Their reaction with carbonates and bicarbonates generates a harmless gas (carbon dioxide) but still heat.
Like other organic compounds, carboxylic acids can be oxidized by strong oxidizing agents and reduced by strong reducing agents.
These reactions generate heat.

Like other acids, carboxylic acids may initiate polymerization reactions; like other acids, they often catalyze (increase the rate of) chemical reactions.
Laurostearic Acid can react with oxidizing materials.

Some surfactants of the derivatives of Laurostearic Acid and dodecanol are also antiseptics, such as dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (geramine), dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium bromide (bromo-geramine) and dodecyl dimethyl (2-phenoxyethyl) ammonium bromide (domiphen bromide).

Laurostearic Acid works well as a lubricant & process agent in textile manufacturing applications, as Laurostearic Acid has the ability to help water mix with oil.

In Personal Care of Laurostearic Acid:
One of the more common Laurostearic Acid uses is as an emulsifier for facial creams and lotions, as Laurostearic Acid possesses a strong ability to cleanse skin and hair.
Laurostearic Acid is also easy to wash away after use.
You can find Laurostearic Acid in many personal care products such as shampoos, body washes and shower gels.

In Soaps and Detergents of Laurostearic Acid:
When used as a base in the production of liquid and transparent soaps, Laurostearic Acid can control the level of lathering, add conditioning properties and enhance overall cleaning ability.

In Medical of Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid can be found in a variety of medicines used for treating viral infections, certain forms of influenza, fever blisters, cold sores, bronchitis, yeast infections, gonorrhea, genital herpes and many others.
However, there is insufficient evidence to determine Laurostearic Acid overall effectiveness in treating these conditions.
Preliminary research also indicates that Laurostearic Acid may aid in the treatment of acne as well.

Laurostearic Acid, or dodecanoic acid, is the main acid in coconut oil and in palm kernel oil, and is believed to have antimicrobial properties.
The detected values of half maximal effective concentration (EC(50)) of Laurostearic Acid on P. acnes, S. aureus, and S. epidermidis growth indicate that P. acnes is the most sensitive to Laurostearic Acid among these bacteria.

In addition, Laurostearic Acid did not induce cytotoxicity to human sebocytes.
This data highlight the potential of using Laurostearic Acid as an alternative treatment for antibiotic therapy of acne vulgaris.
Laurostearic Acid is used in the manufacture of soaps, detergents, cosmetics, and lauryl alcohol.

In Cleansing of Laurostearic Acid:
Helps to keep a clean surface

In Emulsifying of Laurostearic Acid:
Promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil)

In Surfactant of Laurostearic Acid:
Reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product when Laurostearic Acid is used

Diet With Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid can be taken as a supplement, but Laurostearic Acid is most commonly consumed as part of coconut oil or palm kernel oil.
Laurostearic Acid is considered to be safe based on the amounts generally found in food.

However, because they are still pure oil, limit your intake of MCTs to stay within the recommended 5 to 7 teaspoons of oil per day as set out by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
You can use coconut and palm kernel oil for stir-fries because both oils withstand high heat.
They can also be used in baking, adding a natural richness to your food.

Manufacture of Laurostearic Acid:
Release to the environment of Laurostearic Acid can occur from industrial use: manufacturing of Laurostearic Acid.

Industry Processing Sectors of Laurostearic Acid:
All other basic organic chemical manufacturing,
All other chemical product and preparation manufacturing,
Petroleum lubricating oil and grease manufacturing,
Plastic material and resin manufacturing,
Soap, cleaning compound, and toilet preparation manufacturing,
Synthetic dye and pigment manufacturing,
Textiles, apparel, and leather manufacturing.

Chemical properties of Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid is colorless needle-like crystals.
Laurostearic Acid is soluble in methanol, slightly soluble in acetone and petroleum ether.

Like many other fatty acids, Laurostearic Acid is inexpensive, has a long shelf-life, and is non-toxic and safe to handle.
Laurostearic Acid is mainly used for the production of soaps and cosmetics.
For these purposes, Laurostearic Acid is neutralized with sodium hydroxide to give sodium laurate, which is a soap.

Most commonly, sodium laurate is obtained by saponification of various oils, such as coconut oil.
These precursors give mixtures of sodium laurate and other soaps.
Laurostearic Acid occurs as a white crystalline powder with a slight odor of bay oil.

Laurostearic Acid is a white solid with a faint odour of bay oil
Laurostearic Acid has a fatty odor.
Laurostearic Acid is a common constituent of most diets; large doses may produce gastrointestinal upset

Potential medicinal properties of Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid increases total serum cholesterol more than many other fatty acids, but mostly high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (the "good" blood cholesterol).
As a result, Laurostearic Acid has been characterized as having "a more favorable effect on total HDL cholesterol than any other fatty acid, either saturated or unsaturated".

In general, a lower total/HDL serum cholesterol ratio correlates with a decrease in atherosclerotic risk.
Nonetheless, an extensive meta-analysis on foods affecting the total LDL/serum cholesterol ratio found in 2003 that the net effects of Laurostearic Acid on coronary artery disease outcomes remained uncertain.
A 2016 review of coconut oil (which is nearly half Laurostearic Acid) was similarly inconclusive about the effects on cardiovascular disease risk.

Formulation or re-packing of Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid is used in the following products: polymers, pH regulators and water treatment products, leather treatment products, coating products, fillers, putties, plasters, modelling clay, finger paints, inks and toners, cosmetics and personal care products, lubricants and greases and textile treatment products and dyes.
Release to the environment of Laurostearic Acid can occur from industrial use: formulation of mixtures and formulation in materials.

Storage of Laurostearic Acid:
Laurostearic Acid is stable at normal temperatures and should be stored in a cool, dry place.
Avoid sources of ignition and contact with incompatible materials.

Release Of Laurostearic Acid Into The Environment:
Release to the environment of Laurostearic Acid can occur from industrial use: industrial abrasion processing with high release rate (e.g. sanding operations or paint stripping by shot-blasting) and industrial abrasion processing with low release rate (e.g. cutting of textile, cutting, machining or grinding of metal).
Other release to the environment of Laurostearic Acid is likely to occur from: indoor use in long-life materials with low release rate (e.g. flooring, furniture, toys, construction materials, curtains, foot-wear, leather products, paper and cardboard products, electronic equipment), outdoor use in long-life materials with low release rate (e.g. metal, wooden and plastic construction and building materials), outdoor use in long-life materials with high release rate (e.g. tyres, treated wooden products, treated textile and fabric, brake pads in trucks or cars, sanding of buildings (bridges, facades) or vehicles (ships)) and indoor use in long-life materials with high release rate (e.g. release from fabrics, textiles during washing, removal of indoor paints).

Laurostearic Acid can be found in complex articles, with no release intended: vehicles and machinery, mechanical appliances and electrical/electronic products (e.g. computers, cameras, lamps, refrigerators, washing machines).
Laurostearic Acid can be found in products with material based on: plastic (e.g. food packaging and storage, toys, mobile phones), fabrics, textiles and apparel (e.g. clothing, mattress, curtains or carpets, textile toys), leather (e.g. gloves, shoes, purses, furniture) and paper used for packaging (excluding food packaging).

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is a colorless needle-like crystals.
Laurostearic acid is soluble in methanol, slightly soluble in acetone and petroleum ether.



STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is stable at normal temperatures and should be stored in a cool, dry place.



SOURCE AND PREPARATION OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is a fatty carboxylic acid isolated from vegetable and animal fats or oils.
For example, coconut oil and palm kernel oil both contain high proportions of Laurostearic acid.
Isolation from natural fats and oils involves hydrolysis, separation of the fatty acids, hydrogenation to convert unsaturated fatty acids to saturated acids, and finally distillation of the specific fatty acid of interest.



OCCURRENCE OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid, as a component of triglycerides, comprises about half of the fatty acid content in coconut oil, laurel oil, and in palm kernel oil (not to be confused with palm oil).
Otherwise Laurostearic acid is relatively uncommon.
Laurostearic acid is also found in human breast milk ( 6.2 % of total fat), cow's milk (2.9%), and goat's milk (3.1 %).



SAFETY OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is widely used in cosmetic preparations, in the manufacture of food-grade additives, and in pharmaceutical formulations.
General exposure to Laurostearic acid occurs through the consumption of food and through dermal contact with cosmetics, soaps, and detergent products.

Occupational exposure may cause local irritation of eyes, nose, throat, and respiratory tract, although Laurostearic acid is considered safe and nonirritating for use in cosmetics.
No toxicological effects were observed when Laurostearic acid was administered to rats at 35% of the diet for 2 years.



MEDIUM-CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Medium-chain triglycerides, or fatty acids, such as Laurostearic acid, are characterized by a specific chemical structure that allows your body to absorb them whole.

This makes them more easily digestible--your body processes them as it would carbohydrates, and they are used as a source of direct energy.
Compared to long-chain triglycerides, the type in other saturated fats, MCTs have fewer calories per serving, roughly 8.3 calories per gram rather than the standard 9 calories per gram, according to an article in "Nutrition Review."



NUTRITIONAL AND MEDICAL ASPECTS OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Although 95% of medium-chain triglycerides are absorbed through the portal vein, only 25–30% of Laurostearic acid is absorbed through it.
Laurostearic acid induces apoptosis in cancer and promotes the proliferation of normal cells by maintaining cellular redox homeostasis.
Laurostearic acid increases total serum lipoproteins more than many other fatty acids, but mostly high-density lipoprotein (HDL).

As a result, Laurostearic acid has been characterized as having "a more favorable effect on total HDL than any other fatty acid [examined], either saturated or unsaturated".
In general, a lower total/HDL serum lipoprotein ratio correlates with a decrease in atherosclerotic incidence.

Nonetheless, an extensive meta-analysis on foods affecting the total LDL/serum lipoprotein ratio found in 2003 that the net effects of Laurostearic acid on coronary artery disease outcomes remained uncertain.
A 2016 review of coconut oil (which is nearly half Laurostearic acid) was similarly inconclusive about the effects on cardiovascular disease incidence.



INCLUDING LAUROSTEARIC ACID IN YOUR DIET:
Laurostearic acid can be taken as a supplement, but it is most commonly consumed as part of coconut oil or palm kernel oil.
Laurostearic acid is considered to be safe based on the amounts generally found in food.

According to NYU Langone Medical Center, coconut and palm kernel oil contain up to 15 percent MCTs, along with a number of other fats.
However, because they are still pure oil, limit your intake of MCTs to stay within the recommended 5 to 7 teaspoons of oil per day as set out by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

You can use coconut and palm kernel oil for stir-fries because both oils withstand high heat.
They can also be used in baking, adding a natural richness to your food.



PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid occurs as a white crystalline powder with a slight odor of bay oil or a fatty odor.
Laurostearic acid is a common constituent of most diets; large doses may produce gastrointestinal upset.



CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Like many other fatty acids, Laurostearic acid is inexpensive, has a long shelf-life, and is non-toxic and safe to handle.
Laurostearic acid is mainly used for the production of soaps and cosmetics.

For these purposes, Laurostearic acid is neutralized with sodium hydroxide to give sodium laurate, which is a soap.
Most commonly, sodium laurate is obtained by saponification of various oils, such as coconut oil.
These precursors give mixtures of sodium laurate and other soaps.



PRODUCTION METHODS OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
1. Industrial production methods can be grouped into two categories:
* derived from the saponification or high temperature and pressure decomposition of natural vegetable oils and fats;
* separated from the synthetic fatty acid.

Japan mainly uses coconut oil and palm kernel oil as the raw materials for the preparation of Laurostearic acid.
The natural vegetable oils used to produce Laurostearic acid include coconut oil, litsea cubeba kernel oil, palm kernel oil and mountain pepper seed oil.

Other plants oil, such as palm kernel oil, tea tree seed oil and camphor tree seed oil, can also service industry to produce Laurostearic acid.
The residual C12 distillate from the extraction of Laurostearic acid, containing a large number of dodecenoic acid, can be hydrogenated at atmospheric pressure, without catalyst, to convert into Laurostearic acid with a yield of more than 86%.

2. Derived from the separation and purification of coconut oil and other vegetable oil.

3. Laurostearic acid naturally exists in coconut oil, litsea cubeba kernel oil, palm kernel oil and pepper kernel oil in the form of glyceride.
Laurostearic acid can be derived from the hydrolysis of natural oils and fats in industry.
The coconut oil, water and catalyst are added into the autoclave and hydrolyzed to glycerol and fatty acid at 250 ℃ under the pressure of 5MPa.
The content of Laurostearic acid is 45%~80%, and can be further distilled to obtain Laurostearic acid.



AIR AND WATER REACTIONS OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is insoluble in water.



AROMA THRESHOLD VALUES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Aroma threshold values
Aroma characteristics at 1.0%: fatty, creamy, cheeselike, candle waxy with egglike richness



TASTE THRESHOLD VALUES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Taste characteristics at 5 ppm: waxy,fatty and oily, tallowlike, creamy and dairylike with a coating mouthfeel



REACTIVITY PROFILE OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is a carboxylic acid.
Carboxylic acids donate hydrogen ions if a base is present to accept them.
They react in this way with all bases, both organic (for example, the amines) and inorganic.

Their reactions with bases, called "neutralizations", are accompanied by the evolution of substantial amounts of heat.
Neutralization between an acid and a base produces water plus a salt.
Carboxylic acids in aqueous solution and liquid or molten carboxylic acids can react with active metals to form gaseous hydrogen and a metal salt.

Such reactions occur in principle for solid carboxylic acids as well, but are slow if the solid acid remains dry.
Even "insoluble" carboxylic acids may absorb enough water from the air and dissolve sufficiently in Laurostearic acid to corrode or dissolve iron, steel, and aluminum parts and containers.

Carboxylic acids, like other acids, react with cyanide salts to generate gaseous hydrogen cyanide.
The reaction is slower for dry, solid carboxylic acids.
Insoluble carboxylic acids react with solutions of cyanides to cause the release of gaseous hydrogen cyanide.



PRODUCTION METHODS OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is a fatty carboxylic acid isolated from vegetable and animal fats or oils.
For example, coconut oil and palm kernel oil both contain high proportions of Laurostearic acid.
Isolation from natural fats and oils involves hydrolysis, separation of the fatty acids, hydrogenation to convert unsaturated fatty acids to saturated acids, and finally distillation of the specific fatty acid of interest.



SOLUBILITY OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is soluble in water, benzene, acetone, alcohol, petroleum ether, dimethyl sulfoxide and dimethyl formamide.
Laurostearic acid is slightly soluble in chloroform.



NOTES OF LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is incompatible with bases, oxidizing agents and reducing agents.



WHERE TO FIND LAUROSTEARIC ACID:
Laurostearic acid is a powerful substance that’s sometimes extracted from the coconut for use in developing monolaurin.
Monolaurin is an antimicrobial agent that’s able to fight pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and yeasts.

Lauryl amine oxide is usually classified as a non-ionic surfactant, as Lauryl amine oxide does not have any formal charges, and thus is compatible with anionic and cationic systems.
These products are often used as replacement of alkanolamides (CDE) due to their mildness and improved conditioning properties.
Technically speaking, amine oxides are the result of the oxidation of tertiary amines.

In other words, you have a tertiary amine and you oxidize Lauryl amine oxide, usually with hydrogen peroxide, and you obtain the amine oxide.
However, sometimes Lauryl amine oxide is also classified as cationic, as under pH below 3 it is protonated ,and the nitrogen receives a formal positive charge.
And some users also classify it as an amphoteric surfactant due to the strong ,dipolar moment between the oxygen and the nitrogen, almost as if there was a positive charge on the nitrogen and a negative charge on the oxygen.
But formally speaking under neutral or alkaline conditions it does not present any formal charges, and therefore is a non-ionic
This amine oxide presents many interesting properties, such as providing a good viscosity response thus allowing efficient thickening of surfactant solutions (the strong dipolar moment helps to structure the surfactant phase), because of its foam boosting and stabilizing it is very efficient even in low pH solutions making it interesting in industrial cleaners as well , with an good resistance to oxidation and excellent skin compatibility

(1-Dodecyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide (10 mg with 100 uCi of 14C) was applied to the skin of two humans to study cutaneous absorption and metabolism of Lauryl amine oxide.

Ninety-two percent of the applied radioactivity was recovered from the skin of the test subjects 8 hr after dosing, and 0.1 and 0.23% of the radioactivity was recovered from the excretion products of the test subjects.
The stratum corneum contained <0.2% of the applied dose.
Oral administration of a solution containing 50 mg (1-dodecyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide (100 uCi of 14C) to two humans resulted in excretion patterns of radioactivity similar to that of the other species studied.

Fifty percent and 37% of the radioactivity was found in the urine within 24 hr of dosing, and expired 14C02 contained between 18 and 22% of the radioactivity administered.
Four Sprague-Dawley rats were given intraperitoneal injections of 22 mg (methyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide kg (specific activity 1.3 mCi/g).
Sixty-seven percent of the total radioactivity was eliminated in the urine, 8% was expired as I4CO2, and 6% was eliminated in the feces within 24 hr.

The distribution of radioactivity was essentially the same as that seen in rats given oral doses of Lauryl amine oxide.
The conclusion was that " microbial metabolism by gastrointestinal flora does not play a major role in the absorption and excretion of and absorption of the compound.
Over 72 hr, 14.2% of the total radioactivity was found in the urine, 2.5% in the CO2, and 1.8% in the feces.

Acute Exposure/ The ocular irritation potential of formulations containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide was evaluated by instilling 10 uL into the conjunctival sac of New Zealand White rabbits.

The eyes of some rabbits were rinsed with distilled water.
Irritation was scored according to the method of Draize (maximum possible score:). Slight irritation of the conjunctivae was observed in all unrinsed eyes and in two of three rinsed eyes at the 24-hr grading period.
The maximum average score was 2.0 for the animals with unrinsed eyes, and 1.3 for those whose eyes were rinsed.
All eyes were clear after 48 hr.
Acute Exposure/ Liquid droplet aerosol /formulation containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide/ at concentrations of 0.2, 1.0, and 5.2 mg/L were tested on three groups of four male Swiss-Webster mice.

Only the heads of the mice were exposed to the aerosol.
The average respiratory rate was monitored using plethysmography 5 min before, 10 min during, and 10 min after each exposure, and the percentage change in respiratory rate was calculated.
A decrease in respiratory rate was considered a response to upper airway irritation.
A transient decrease was observed in the respiratory rate of the 1.0 mg/L exposed group, but this was not considered significant because no signs of irritation were seen at greater exposure concentrations.

The groups treated with 1.0 mg/L and 5.2 mg/L had a 6% decrease in their average respiratory rates.
However, these decreases were not attributed to upper airway irritation because the respiratory rates were even lower during the postexposure recovery period.
No decrease in respiratory rate was observed in the 0.2 mg/L exposed mice.
Acute Exposure/ The acute inhalation toxicity of a liquid droplet aerosol formulation containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide was evaluated.
Five female and five male albino Sprague-Dawley-derived rats were exposed for 4 hr to this aerosol at a concentration of 5.3 mg/L.

The Equivalent Aerodynamic Diameter of the aerosol was 3.6 um with a geometric standard deviation of 1.91.
The animals were observed during the exposure and two times daily for 14 days, and body weights were recorded before exposure and on days 1, 3, 7, and 14 postexposure.
At necropsy, the major organs in the abdominal and thoracic cavities were weighed and observed.
No deaths occurred during the study and all the rats appeared normal.

A slight drop in body weight was observed in the males on day 1, but weight was gained normally for the remainder of the study.
The weight gain in the females was normal.
The organ weights were all within the anticipated normal control ranges for both sexes.
No exposure-related pharmacotoxic signs were evident in any of the organs.
The 4-hr LD50 for this aerosol was greater than 5.3 mg/L nominal.

LAURYL AMINE OXIDE
Lauryl Amine Oxide Lauryldimethylamine oxide (Lauryl amine oxide), also known as dodecyldimethylamine oxide (DDAO), is an amine oxide based zwitterionic surfactant, with a C12 (dodecyl) alkyl tail. It is one of the most frequently-used surfactants of this type.[4] Like other amine oxide based surfactants it is antimicrobial, being effective against common bacteria such as S. aureus and E. coli,[1] however it is also non-denaturing and may be used to solubilize proteins. At high concentrations, Lauryl amine oxide forms liquid crystalline phases.[5] Despite having only one polar atom that is able to interact with water – the oxygen atom (the quaternary nitrogen atom is hidden from intermolecular interactions), DDAO is a strongly hydrophilic surfactant: it forms normal micelles and normal liquid crystalline phases. High hydrophilicity of this surfactant can be explained by the fact that it forms very strong hydrogen bonds with water: the energy of DDAO – water hydrogen bond is about 50 kJ/mol.

It appears as a clear yellow liquid. This product is used as a viscosity modifier and foam enhancer for shampoos and shower gels. It is also applied as a foam enhancer and detergent in hard surface cleaners, sanitizing products, dishwashing liquids, and car wash systems. In addition, this product is suitable as a water-based nonionic surfactant compatible with anionic and cationic systems. (1-Dodecyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide (10 mg with 100 uCi of 14C) was applied to the skin of two humans to study cutaneous absorption and metabolism of Lauryl amine oxide. Ninety-two percent of the applied radioactivity was recovered from the skin of the test subjects 8 hr after dosing, and 0.1 and 0.23% of the radioactivity was recovered from the excretion products of the test subjects. The stratum corneum contained <0.2% of the applied dose. Oral administration of a solution containing 50 mg (1-dodecyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide (100 uCi of 14C) to two humans resulted in excretion patterns of radioactivity similar to that of the other species studied. Fifty percent and 37% of the radioactivity was found in the urine within 24 hr of dosing, and expired 14C02 contained between 18 and 22% of the radioactivity administered. Four Sprague-Dawley rats were given intraperitoneal injections of 22 mg (methyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide kg (specific activity 1.3 mCi/g). Sixty-seven percent of the total radioactivity was eliminated in the urine, 8% was expired as I4CO2, and 6% was eliminated in the feces within 24 hr. The distribution of radioactivity was essentially the same as that seen in rats given oral doses of Lauryl amine oxide. The conclusion was that "... microbial metabolism by gastrointestinal flora does not play a major role in the absorption and excretion of [Lauryl amine oxide] in rats." Aqueous (methyl-14C)Lauryl amine oxide (10 mg containing 1.3 mCi/g) was applied to the skin of four Sprague-Dawley rats to test metabolism and absorption of the compound. Over 72 hr, 14.2% of the total radioactivity was found in the urine, 2.5% in the CO2, and 1.8% in the feces. Radioactivity was detected in the liver, kidneys, testes, blood, and expired CO2. Characterization of metabolites of Lauryl amine oxide resulted in the positive identification of only one metabolite, N-dimethyl-4-aminobutyric acid N-oxide. Several pathways exist for metabolism of Lauryl amine oxide: omega,beta-oxidation of alkyl chains (the most common pathway for surfactant metabolism), hydroxylation of alkyl chains, and reduction of the amine oxide group. Lauryl amine oxide and stearamine oxide are aliphatic tertiary amine oxides that are used in cosmetics as foam builders and stabilizers, viscosity enhancers, emollients, conditioners, emulsifiers, antistatic agents, and wetting agents. Acute Exposure/ The ocular irritation potential of formulations containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide was evaluated by instilling 10 uL into the conjunctival sac of New Zealand White rabbits. The eyes of some rabbits were rinsed with distilled water. Irritation was scored according to the method of Draize (maximum possible score: 110). Slight irritation of the conjunctivae was observed in all unrinsed eyes and in two of three rinsed eyes at the 24-hr grading period. The maximum average score was 2.0 for the animals with unrinsed eyes, and 1.3 for those whose eyes were rinsed. All eyes were clear after 48 hr. Acute Exposure/ Liquid droplet aerosol /formulation containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide/ at concentrations of 0.2, 1.0, and 5.2 mg/L were tested on three groups of four male Swiss-Webster mice. Only the heads of the mice were exposed to the aerosol. The average respiratory rate was monitored using plethysmography 5 min before, 10 min during, and 10 min after each exposure, and the percentage change in respiratory rate was calculated. A decrease in respiratory rate was considered a response to upper airway irritation. A transient decrease was observed in the respiratory rate of the 1.0 mg/L exposed group, but this was not considered significant because no signs of irritation were seen at greater exposure concentrations. The groups treated with 1.0 mg/L and 5.2 mg/L had a 6% decrease in their average respiratory rates. However, these decreases were not attributed to upper airway irritation because the respiratory rates were even lower during the postexposure recovery period. No decrease in respiratory rate was observed in the 0.2 mg/L exposed mice. Acute Exposure/ The acute inhalation toxicity of a liquid droplet aerosol formulation containing 0.3% active Lauryl amine oxide was evaluated. Five female and five male albino Sprague-Dawley-derived rats were exposed for 4 hr to this aerosol at a concentration of 5.3 mg/L. The Equivalent Aerodynamic Diameter of the aerosol was 3.6 um with a geometric standard deviation of 1.91. The animals were observed during the exposure and two times daily for 14 days, and body weights were recorded before exposure and on days 1, 3, 7, and 14 postexposure. At necropsy, the major organs in the abdominal and thoracic cavities were weighed and observed. No deaths occurred during the study and all the rats appeared normal. A slight drop in body weight was observed in the males on day 1, but weight was gained normally for the remainder of the study. The weight gain in the females was normal. The organ weights were all within the anticipated normal control ranges for both sexes. No exposure-related pharmacotoxic signs were evident in any of the organs. The 4-hr LD50 for this aerosol was greater than 5.3 mg/L nominal. Lauryl amine oxide's production and use as a surfactant in dishwasher detergent, shampoo and soap, as a foam stabilizer, and textile antistatic agent may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, an estimated vapor pressure of 6.2X10-8 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates Lauryl amine oxide will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase Lauryl amine oxide will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 14.1 hours. Particulate-phase Lauryl amine oxide will be removed from the atmosphere by wet or dry deposition. Lauryl amine oxide does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, Lauryl amine oxide is expected to have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 5.5. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.6X10-11 atm-cu m/mole.

Depending on the composition and conditions of pH value, the substances can have anionic or cationic properties. In the presence of acids, they will accept the hydrogen ions but they will donate hydrogen ions to the solution in the presence of bases, which balances the pH. Such actions make buffer solutions which resist change to the pH. In the detergency ability amphoteric surfactants which change their charge according to the pH of the solution affects properties of foaming, wetting and detergentcy through a surface action that exerts both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. In biochemistry amphoteric surfactant is used as a detergent for purifying, cleansing and antimicrobial effects. Alkylbetains and aminoxides are amphoteric surfactants. Learn all about lauryl amine oxide, including how it's made, and why Puracy uses lauramine oxide in our products. Derived from: coconut Pronunciation: (LORA-meen \ˈäk-ˌsīd\) Type: Naturally-derived What Is Lauryl amine oxide? Lauryl amine oxide is a clear, pale-yellow, amine oxide liquid derived from coconut.[1,2,3] Coconuts grow on the cocos nucifera, or coconut palm tree. Coconut palms grow around the world in lowland tropical and subtropical areas where annual precipitation is low.[4,5] Widely cultivated, healthy coconut palms produce 50 nuts per year, and the tree can be used to produce everything from food and drink to fibers, building materials, and natural ingredients.[6,7] What Does Lauryl amine oxide Do in Our products? Lauryl amine oxide is a surfactant, meaning it breaks surface tension in liquids, allowing things to become clean. It is also a foam builder, stabilizer, viscosity enhancer, emollient and conditioner.[8] It can be found in personal care products such as shampoo, facial cleansers, body wash, sunscreen, and a variety of other products.[9,10] Why Puracy Uses Lauryl amine oxide We use Lauryl amine oxide as a surfactant and cleanser. The Cosmetics Ingredient Review has deemed the ingredient safe for use in cosmetic products and in leave-on products in which the concentration is limited to 3.7%.[13] Research shows the ingredient is typically not a skin or eye irritant. How Lauryl amine oxide Is Made Commercial production of Lauryl amine oxide occurs largely by mixing the amine with 35% hydrogen peroxide at 60 degrees Celsius. The mixture is heated to 75 degrees Celsius and sodium sulfite or manganese dioxide are added. The mixture is then filtered to get rid of extra peroxide. Lauryl amine oxide and Stearamine Oxide are aliphatic tertiary amine oxides that are used mostly in hair care products as foam builders and stabilizers, viscosity enhancers, emollients, conditioners, emulsifiers, antistatic agents, and wetting agents. Both compounds are susceptible to nitrosation and can form nitrosamines in the presence of nitrosating agents. In rats, up to 40% of Lauryl amine oxide applied to the skin was absorbed. In two human volunteers, 92% of the dose applied to the skin was recovered from the skin. The oral LD50 in rats for a formulation containing 0.3% Lauryl amine oxide was estimated to be >20 g/kg. At a concentration of 30%, Lauryl amine oxide produced severe dermal reactions in rabbits, but at 0.3% only slight to moderate erythema with slight edema, Assuring, and slight to moderate epithelial desquamation were found. Stearamine Oxide applied to rabbit skin at 5% did not cause irritation. Both ingredients caused mild, transient ocular irritation in rabbits. Clinical data showed dermal exposure to 3.7% Lauryl amine oxide to be a mild irritant, with a slight potential for mild cumulative skin irritation at concentrations as low as 2%. At 0.3%, Lauryl amine oxide was not a sensitizer in clinical studies. Lauryl amine oxide was nonmutagenic in the Ames assay, but was mutagenic after nitrosation. Lauryl amine oxide at 0.1% in drinking water was not carcinogenic in rats, but at 0.1% with 0.2% sodium nitrate did increase the incidence of liver neoplasms. Based on this animal data, neither ingredient should contain N-ni-troso compounds nor be used in formulations containing nitrosating agents. On the basis of the available animal and clinical data, it is concluded that Lauryl amine oxide and Stearamine Oxide are safe as cosmetic ingredients for rinse-off products, but that the concentration in Lauryl amine oxide leave-on products should be limited to 3.7% and that of Stearamine Oxide limited to 5%.

FEATURES & BENEFITS Bleach (Chlorine) & Acid Stable Can be used with a variety of anionic, nonionic & cationic surfactants and co surfactants. USES: Washes and Cleaners Body Washes Conditioners Alkaline and Acid Cleaners Bleach Cleaners Body Washes Bubble Bath Car and Truck Wash Soaps Conditioners Dishwash Detergents Facial Cleansers Foam Booster Green Products Industrial cleaners Roof and House washes What Is It? In cosmetics and personal-care products, Lauramine and Stearamine Oxides are amine oxides that are used mostly in hair-care products as foam builders and stabilizers, viscosity enhancers, emollients, conditioners, emulsifiers, antistatic agents and wetting agents. Lauramine and Steramine Oxides are used mainly in hair-care products such as shampoos, hair rinses, tonics and hair-grooming aids. Why is it used in cosmetics and personal care products? Lauryl amine oxide and Stearamine Oxide enhance the appearance and feel of hair by increasing hair body and volume, suppleness or sheen. These ingrediets may improve the texture of hair that has been damaged physically or by chemical treatment. Lauramine and Steramine Oxides also increase foaming capacity and prevents the buildup of static electricity in hair-care product formulations. Scientific Facts: Lauryl amine oxide and Stearamine Oxides are Amine Oxides. Amine oxides are usually prepared from tertiary Amines by oxidation, usually with hydrogen peroxide. Lauryl amine oxide is an Amine N-oxide, an active component primarily found in shampoo, bubble bath and hand soap thanks to its foam building properties (Source). Because Lauryl amine oxide has dual functional groups in the same molecule (both asidic and basic groups), it is very versatile. Functions: Lauryl amine oxide is an Amine N-oxide, an active component primarily found in shampoo, bubble bath and hand soap thanks to its foam building properties (Source). Because Lauryl amine oxide has dual functional groups in the same molecule (both asidic and basic groups), it is very versatile. It can have high solubility in some solutions and low in others; it creates positive charges and negative charges on different atoms; it carries anionic or cationic properties depending on pH value. Therefore although Lauryl amine oxide is seen most frequently as a foam builder in beauty products, it can also be used as a dye dispersant, wetting agent, emulsifier, lubricant, surfactant, anti-static agent, and viscosity controlling agent, according to research. Safety Measures/Side Effects: Lauryl amine oxide is approved by the CIR for use in cosmetics but with restriction limiting its use to rinse-off products; The International Journal of Toxicology reports skin irritation from Lauryl amine oxide and recommends limiting its use to rinse off products at a maximum of 3.7% concentration. A 1981 study by published in Contact Dermatitis also found Lauryl amine oxide to be a primary skin irritant. Lauryl amine oxide's production and use as a surfactant in dishwasher detergent, shampoo and soap, as a foam stabilizer, and textile antistatic agent may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, an estimated vapor pressure of 6.2X10-8 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates Lauryl amine oxide will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase Lauryl amine oxide will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 14.1 hours. Particulate-phase Lauryl amine oxide will be removed from the atmosphere by wet or dry deposition. Lauryl amine oxide does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, Lauryl amine oxide is expected to have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 5.5. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.6X10-11 atm-cu m/mole. In aqueous biodegradation screening tests, Lauryl amine oxide was 100% removed after 28 days as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, suggesting that biodegradation in soil and water is an important fate process. If released into water, Lauryl amine oxide is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant. An estimated BCF of 0.7 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Hydrolysis is not expected to be an important environmental fate process since this compound lacks functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions. Occupational exposure to Lauryl amine oxide may occur through dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where it is produced or used. The general population may be exposed to Lauryl amine oxide via dermal contact with this compound in consumer products containing Lauryl amine oxide. Lauryl amine oxide's production and use as a surfactant in dishwasher detergent, shampoo and soap(1), as a foam stabilizer, and textile antistatic agent(2) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 5.5(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 190,000 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that Lauryl amine oxide is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of Lauryl amine oxide from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.6X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Lauryl amine oxide is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 6.2X10-8 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(5). In aqueous biodegradation screening tests, Lauryl amine oxide was 100% removed after 28 days as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(6), suggesting that biodegradation in soil is an important fate process(SRC).
