Description

C24-Phytoceramide CAS NO 34437-74-6 is a high-purity, plant-derived ceramide, a key structural lipid essential for skin barrier function and cellular signaling. Its primary commercial value lies in its superior stability and bio-identical structure compared to animal-derived ceramides, making it a premium ingredient for advanced formulations. This compound is critically needed by manufacturers in the cosmetic, personal care, and nutraceutical industries seeking to develop high-efficacy products for skin repair, moisturization, and anti-aging.

Application

• Premium Skincare Formulations: As a core active in anti-aging serums, moisturizers, and barrier repair creams to restore skin hydration and elasticity.
• Hair Care Products: Incorporated into conditioners and treatments to strengthen the hair cuticle, improve shine, and reduce breakage.
• Pharmaceutical & Medical Dermocosmetics: Used in products designed for treating conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and severely dry skin by reinforcing the epidermal barrier.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Served as an oral supplement ingredient aimed at promoting skin health from within.
• Advanced Cosmetic Actives: Utilized in liposomal delivery systems and other novel carriers to enhance penetration and efficacy in targeted treatments.
• Research & Development: Employed as a standard or investigational material in biochemical and dermatological research on lipid metabolism and membrane biology.

Quality Control

Our C24-Phytoceramide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets stringent specifications for cosmetic and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider keeping under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) and avoid exposure to moisture.
