Description

Eucommiol CAS NO 55930-44-4 is a bioactive iridoid glycoside, a key phytochemical constituent derived from the bark of *Eucommia ulmoides* Oliv. (Du-Zhong). This compound is of significant commercial interest due to its well-documented role in promoting collagen synthesis, bone health, and connective tissue repair. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and pharmaceutical industries for developing joint health supplements, anti-aging skincare formulations, and functional food ingredients.

Application

• Nutraceuticals & Dietary Supplements: A core ingredient in formulations targeting joint comfort, bone density support, and overall musculoskeletal health.
• Cosmeceutical & Skincare: Used in anti-aging serums, creams, and lotions for its purported ability to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity and firmness.
• Functional Foods & Beverages: Incorporated into health drinks, fortified foods, and meal replacements for added bone and joint support benefits.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a high-purity starting material or reference standard for research and development of new therapeutic agents.
• Traditional & Herbal Medicine: Used as a standardized extract component in modern herbal preparations that leverage the traditional uses of Eucommia bark.
• Veterinary Health Products: Applied in supplements for companion and performance animals to support joint and ligament health.
