Application of Vitamin E Acetate
Jan 19, 2024APPLICATION
Natural vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, includes four types. Among various forms of vitamin E compounds, A-tocopherol has the highest biological activity. So the tocopherol acetate prepared from natural tocopherols is the most active vitamin E derivative, with three times the biological activity of synthetic vitamin E, and without chemical pollution, it has no toxic side effects on the human body, ensuring that the effective ingredients of the material are not destroyed and maintaining the pure natural quality of the product. Natural tocopherol acetate, with its high physiological activity, rich nutrition, and safe and reliable advantages, conforms to the trend of human nutrition enhancement, returning to nature, and safe consumption. It has been increasingly used as a substitute for synthetic vitamin E.
Tocopherol acetate is an essential component of human nutrition, with significant antioxidant properties, elimination of free radicals in the body, prevention of cancer, and pre enhancement of the body's immune system. As a feed additive, it can improve the reproductive function of animals and enhance their reproductive capacity. In the food industry, it is mainly used as an antioxidant and nutritional enhancer for oily foods; In the pharmaceutical industry, it can be used as a pharmaceutical raw material for the production of finished medicines, and has good effects on the treatment of periodontitis, thick skin disease, fatty liver, arteriosclerosis, hypercholesterolemia, etc; Used in cosmetics, it can delay skin aging, increase skin elasticity, restore youthful vitality, moisturize the skin, and maintain skin moisture.
In fact, a large part of the use of tocopherol is achieved through the use of tocopherol acetate. In addition, some manufacturers produce natural tocopherol (or natural tocopherol) which is actually its acetate, and the so-called tocopherol is actually tocopherol acetate. Due to its high molecular weight and long side chain, tocopherol is fat soluble. This has brought adverse factors to both products used as feed additives and in pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, and other fields.
When used as a feed additive, its easy oxidation affects its vitality; When used as a drug, its inability to dissolve in water-soluble media limits its application in intravenous injection. This is because there is an "allogeneic reaction" in muscles due to the presence of oily carriers. When used as cosmetics, due to the inability to dissolve with water-soluble active ingredients, they can only be made into emulsions. Such products often have poor surface activity and are difficult to exert the physiological effects of their active ingredients. The synthesis of water-soluble tocopherol acetate addresses these shortcomings. Compared with free tocopherol, tocopherol acetate products have many application advantages in medicine, cosmetics, food, and feed.
