Viablife Ceramide NG

Ceramide is the main lipid component of the lamellar lamellae present in the intercellular spaces of the stratum corneum. These lamellar lamellae are supposed to provide the barrier properties of the epidermis. The intercellular lipid domain is composed of approximately 45-50% ceramide, 25% cholesterol, 15% free fatty acids, and 2% phytosphingosine.

The discovery of a lipid in the nervous tissue of the brain dates back to 1884, when Johann Thudichum identified it in his publication A Treatise on the Chemical Constitution of the Brain. Due to its complex and enigmatic biological function, the lipid was named "sphingolipid," derived from "Sphingo-," referencing the Sphinx of ancient Egyptian mythology.

Sphingolipids were later classified into three main types: sphingomyelins, glycosphingolipids, and ceramides.

Ceramides are structurally heterogeneous and complex sphingolipids that differ in chain length, type and degree of hydroxylation, and saturation level. They are formed through the covalent condensation of sphingosine and long-chain fatty acids with 12 to 30 carbon atoms. Different combinations of three sphingosine and four fatty acids are connected through amide to form different ceramides in the stratum corneum, mainly twelve types. Among these, Ceramide NP is the most abundant and functionally significant.

Ceramides play a vital role in building and maintaining the skin's water permeability barrier function. Together with other cuticle lipids, they form a highly ordered structure essential for skin health.

Product advantages

1.Viablife Ceramide NG is derived from fermentation products of self-preserving proprietary strains. It adopts the method of biological fermentation and unique preparation process, and develops and produces 5 kinds of high-quality raw powders and series compositions around the consumer demand of ceramide: Plant sphingosine, TAPS, NP, AP, EOP, etc.,
2.Compared with the traditional chemical synthesis method, the production energy consumption is lower, the bioavailability is higher, the efficiency is higher, and the environmental protection is more green. It is in line with the carbon neutrality and carbon peak policy advocated by the state.

Product efficacy

1.Pure appearance and color
Viablife Ceramide NG is pure white powder, ensuring premium quality and consistency.
2.Higher purity
Viablife Ceramide NG is produced by biosynthesis process, with higher purity and minimal impurities.
3.Uniform particle size
The particle size of Viablife Ceramide NG is strictly controlled, resulting in a more uniform and consistent product.
4.Formula guidance
As a highly crystalline substance, Ceramide NG is low solubility in water and oil phases, poor dispersibility, and easy crystallization and precipitation, which limits its application in cosmetics. Viablife offers professional formulation guidance and tailored recommendations to optimize the application of Viablife Ceramide NG.
