However, there are certain groups of microorganisms. (extremophiles) that can survive in extreme environmental conditions (extreme environmental conditions) in their habitats, such as extreme cold, extreme heat, high air pressure high acidity high salt concentration and areas with high radiation Within this group of organisms is ectoin, a compatible solute or extremolyte that protects cells from stress. This is the idea for BIOECTO ™ substances to be applied in skin care cosmetics. High stability and safety for use It is an amino acid derivative that provides outstanding properties in protecting and restoring. Helps the skin to have the potential to resist the impact of external factors.
The mechanism of action of ectoin is due to the structure that facilitates the formation of hydrogen bonds with water molecules because of its high electronegativity, causing many water molecules to form a dense arrangement around the cell membrane, DNA, enzyme, protein as a shield Reduce gaps and penetration of substances that may cause damage. This phenomenon is called the Kosmotropic effect.
with outstanding protection features and restoration Including maintaining moisture for the skin for a long time Therefore, it is another substance that should be selected to be added to the type of restoration products.
