Description

Off-White Solid


Solid


Phytosphingosine is a sphingoid, an amino alcohol and a triol. It has a role as a Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It derives from a N-acyl-beta-D-galactosylphytosphingosine and a sphinganine. It is a conjugate base of a phytosphingosine(1+).

Phytosphingosine Use and Manufacturing

Uses

phytosphingosine is a sphingolipid that can improve the overall condition of skin and hair. Some sources site anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties. Research indicates similar activity to retinoic acid, in which case it may be particularly beneficial for aging and photo-aging skin. Phytosphingosine is a natural anti-microbial compound and it is involved in several cellular processes such as cell differentiation and anti-inflammation.
