Description

C30 Ceramide (D18:1/30:0) is a high-purity, very-long-chain ceramide, a key structural lipid in the stratum corneum. Its specific molecular structure is critical for reinforcing the skin's natural barrier function and regulating cellular processes. This compound is essential for manufacturers in the premium cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and advanced biomedical research sectors seeking to develop high-efficacy skincare and therapeutic formulations.

Application

• Premium Skincare Formulations: As a core active ingredient in anti-aging, barrier-repair, and moisturizing creams, serums, and lotions to improve skin hydration and elasticity.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Used in studies related to dermatological disorders, cellular signaling, apoptosis, and sphingolipid metabolism.
• Cosmeceutical Development: For advanced products that bridge the gap between cosmetics and drugs, targeting specific skin conditions with bioactive lipids.
• Biomimetic Membrane Studies: As a component in model membrane systems to study lipid raft formation, permeability, and bilayer stability.
• Hair Care Products: Incorporated into treatments designed to strengthen hair, improve shine, and protect against environmental damage.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and research in lipidomics and analytical chemistry.

Quality Control

Our C30 Ceramide is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and MS, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for cosmetic and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available for every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and ensure long-term stability. Keep the container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Allow the product to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
