Algatechnologies Introduces Astaxanthin Water Soluble Emulsion
27 Feb 2012
Natural astaxanthin is a lipid-soluble ingredient and can usually used in oil-based formulations. However, due to its extremely powerful antioxidant properties, there is a high demand in the market for a water soluble form that can be introduced in “oil-in-water” cosmetics formulations and as an active functional ingredient for beverages.
Feb 27 2012 --- Algatechnologies, Israel, the leading manufacturer of natural astaxanthin, will launch at VitaFoods 2% natural astaxanthin liquid-emulsion format under the AstaPure brand name.
Natural astaxanthin is a lipid-soluble ingredient and can usually used in oil-based formulations.
