Name : Kojic Acid
Shape : White crystalline powder
1. It is applied in the field of cosmetics.In the human skin, tyrosine catalyzed by tyrosinase, and oxygen free radicals through complex oxidation, polymerization, and finally synthesis of melanin.Kojic acid can inhibit the synthesis of tyrosinase, and thus can strongly inhibit the formation of melanin, and safe non-toxic, does not produce white spot sequela, so kojic acid has been allocated into lotion, facial mask, lotions, creams, can effective treatment of freckles, age spots, pigmentation, acne and other high-grade whitening cosmetics.20ug/ml concentration of kojic acid can inhibit a variety of tyrosinase (or polyphenol oxidase PPO) 70 ~ 80% of the activity, in cosmetics generally added amount is 0.5 ~ 2.0%.
2. Food processing.Kojic acid can be used as food additive to keep fresh, protect against corrosion and resist oxidation.Experimental results show that kojic acid can inhibit the conversion into carcinogenic nitrosamines in bacon, and the addition of kojic acid in food will not affect the taste, aroma and texture of food.Kojic acid is also the raw material of maltol and ethyl maltol, which is widely used in food processing.
3. Pharmaceutical field.Because the eukaryotic cells have no mutagenic effect on kojic acid, can eliminate free radicals within human body again, to enhance the role, such as the white power, beneficial to human body health, so has kojic acid as raw materials of cephalosporins antibiotics, medicines used to treat with the finished products produced diseases such as headache, toothache, and local inflammation, analgesia and anti-inflammatory effect is very ideal.
4. In agriculture.Kojic acid can be used in the production of biological pesticides.The addition of 0.5 ~ 1.0% kojic acid as biological microfertilizer (dark red liquid), whether as foliar fertilizer at low concentration or as a growth agent for root application, is a crop production enhancer that has a significant effect on increasing grain yield and vegetables.
Kojic acid is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H6O4 and the molecular weight 142.11.Colorless prismatic crystal.Used as an antioxidant and radiation protector.
