Product details

 

Assay: 91.8% Particle size: 80 - 100 mesh

 

Solubility: Ellagic acid only dissolves fully in a strong alkaline solvent.  However, it disperses well in propylene glycol (propylene glycol was used in the Japanese EA study). 

 

If you prefer to have a product with fully dissolved Ellagic acid content, then we recommend Pomegrananate extract, which is standardized at 40& Ellagic acid.


Suggested percentage: 1% to 3%
Storage: Store in cool and dry place. Keep away from direct strong light and heat
Country of origin: China Manufacturer's Data: Ellagic Acid COA

Ellagic acid is often found in DIY skin care recipes for UV protection. Research has proven it to be effective at reducing pigmentation due to exposure to the sun. It also has properties that make it effective as an anti-inflammatory, and as an antioxidant.
