Ectoine Powder

What Is Ectoine powder?

Ectoine powder, also known as ectoine, is a clinically proven multifunctional ingredient with excellent restorative and protective properties. It is an extremophile molecule produced by many microorganisms and plants in order to be able to Survive. It was discovered in the Egyptian desert in 1985 that under extreme conditions, desert halophiles produce natural protective components in the outer layer of cells. This particular protective effect on the species that produces it has prompted much research into the potential uses of ectoine in humans.

The effect of Ectoine Powder

1. Long-lasting moisturizing effect

Of all the possible applications of ectoine that have been discovered so far, its role in protecting and maintaining the normal function of the skin is undoubtedly among the best. Since the discovery of ectoine and the recognition of its ability to bind water, it has been used as an ingredient in moisturizing products. The ectoine does exactly that as well, and several studies have shown that water loss from the human epidermis is greatly reduced after the application of ectoine. In addition, by comparing the stability of ectoine complexes and water molecules with respect to water and glycerin complexes and water molecules and macromolecules, it was demonstrated that ectoine has better and longer-lasting moisturizing effects.

2. Repair and strengthen the skin

One of the most powerful functions of ectoine is its ability to protect cells from the various surfactants present in cleansers, and it also helps restore the barrier function of severely damaged skin. A specific benefit of the use of ectoine in atopic dermatitis was demonstrated in a randomized double-blind study conducted in several different clinical centers. Owing to its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties, ectoine in moderate to severe atopic dermatitis has shown comparable results to conventional therapies by restoring the skin barrier and relieving symptoms.

3. Reduces damage from UV exposure

The ectoine serves the bacteria that produce it and also protects against radiation. In human cells, in vitro studies have shown that ectoine protects against various harmful effects caused by UVA radiation, which is responsible for deep damage and aging of the skin.
