Natural Astaxanthin Oleoresin 10%

What is Natural Astaxanthin Oleoresin?

The finest source of 100% natural astaxanthin available is Haematococcus Pluvialis. The purity of the powder is up to 5 percent; and the astaxanthin oleoresin is up to 10 percent. It can significantly improve the body's immunity and has a significant anti-fatigue effect due to its ability to bind non-specifically to skeletal muscle, which can effectively remove free radicals generated by exercise in muscle cells and strengthen aerobic metabolism.

Astaxanthin oleoresin, generally levo-astaxanthin content is 5%, 10%, or 20%-40%. Astaxanthin oil mostly uses a solvent extraction process or supercritical extraction process. It is a red or dark red oily liquid.

The Natural Astaxanthin Oleoresin 10% supplied by Green Spring Technology is made of  nature's highest astaxanthin content of Haematococcus Pluvialis and cultivating the algae through a sterile room. The closed and high-pressure environment allows the algae to rapidly accumulate astaxanthin, and then the pure astaxanthin oleoresin is extracted using proprietary extraction technology. This ensures the avoidance of heavy metal and organic solvent residues and quality assurance.

Green Spring Technology’s production is in strict accordance with ISO, HACCP and other quality standards. We have a rigorous internal quality control process to ensure that quality standards are met. We comply with European Pharmacopoeia, US Pharmacopoeia, and Japanese Pharmacopoeia, pesticide residues, heavy metals, and solvent residues are in line with international standards. Authoritative third-party test reports are available.

Benefits:

Antioxidant

Oxidative damage is caused by the reaction between free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Astaxanthin has a unique molecular structure with the presence of hydroxyl and keto groups on each ionic ring, which leads to high antioxidant properties. Carbonyl functional groups in carotenoids have high antioxidant activity and are not pro-oxidant. The polyene chain of astaxanthin traps free radicals in the cell membrane, while the terminal ring of astaxanthin scavenges some of the free radicals in the outer and inner layers of the cell membrane. Astaxanthin is a strong antioxidant a known fourth-generation antioxidant.

Relieves Visual Fatigue

Carotenoids play an important role in protecting against UV oxidation in nature, and their presence can be detected in tissues exposed to direct sunlight. UV damage to the eyes and skin has received widespread attention. Astaxanthin is more effective in preventing UV oxidation of lipids than β-carotene and lutein. Thus the UV-protective properties of astaxanthin play an important role in maintaining eye and skin health.

The main diseases causing visual damage and even blindness are age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and age-related cataracts, both of which are associated with photo-oxidative processes within the eye. Epidemiological studies have shown that oxidation increases the risk of AMD. Dietary supplementation with carotenoids (especially lutein and zeaxanthin) reduces the incidence of cataracts and AMD. Lutein and zeaxanthin are mainly concentrated in the optic macula; astaxanthin is structurally similar to lutein and zeaxanthin, but astaxanthin has stronger antioxidant and UV-protective effects.

Relieve Exercise Fatigue

When the body exercises muscles will release free radicals, these free radicals if not treated by antioxidants promptly, will produce oxidative stress. Resulting in muscle soreness or damage to muscle tissue. Studies have shown that astaxanthin can accumulate in the gastrocnemius muscle and cardiac muscle, and effectively reduce the exercise-generated 4-hydroxynonenal modification of proteins and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyuridine content as well as creatine kinase, peroxidase activity. Therefore astaxanthin can effectively delay gastrocnemius and cardiac muscle fatigue and reduce the occurrence of delayed muscle soreness.

Applications:

For Health Products:

A large number of studies at home and abroad have shown that astaxanthin can effectively remove free radicals generated by exercise in muscle cells, strengthen aerobic metabolism, and have significant anti-fatigue and delayed aging effects. As a raw material, astaxanthin oleoresin is also used in healthcare products.

In the Food Field:

In the food industry, astaxanthin can not only be used as immune enhancers, anti-ageing agents and other functional ingredients added to food but also able to play an effective role in preserving freshness, colour, flavour, quality and so on, as a food colouring agent, antioxidant and so on. Used to maintain the original nutrients of food without damage to the loss or improve the sensory properties, enhance the attractiveness of food to consumers.

Natural astaxanthin oleoresin is a fat-soluble pigment with a brilliant red colour, natural and realistic, very strong pigment deposition ability, strong colouring power, safe and non-toxic, low dosage, no bad taste and good taste. It can be directly used in foodstuffs, such as edible fats and oils, margarine, ice cream, candies, pastries, noodles, seasonings, etc. Especially the foodstuffs containing more lipids, which have both a good colouring effect and a remarkable quality preservation effect. It can also be used for colouring beverages, especially for fruit juice containing VC.

In Cosmetics:

With astaxanthin being widely known by the public, astaxanthin oleoresin is used as a cosmetic ingredient, which can be used in skincare products to resist UV rays, inhibit melanin production, whiten, and moisturize the skin.

For Feed Product：

The application of astaxanthin oleoresin in feed can increase the immunity of the fed animals, enhance their resistance to infectious diseases, and improve the survival rate and reproduction rate of the animals.
