Succinoglycan Durchschnittlich Emulgator Keine bekannten Vorteile Succinoglycan auf einen Blick An exopolysaccharide derived from soil bacteria High molecular weight carbohydrate infrequently used in cosmetics Has emulsifying and texture-enhancing properties Research is also exploring its use in various medical fields Succinoglycan Beschreibung Succinoglycan is an acidic polysaccharide produced by a bacterial species found in soil. It’s considered a natural exopolysaccharide, a high molecular weight carbohydrate. There’s very little information about its use in cosmetics, but research indicates it helps enhance the texture of cosmetics and offers emulsifying properties. It’s been shown to chelate (bond with) iron, thus keeping it from harming skin. However, as of this writing succinoglycan doesn’t appear to be used in cosmetics for this benefit. Usage levels and the safety of succinoglycan in cosmetics has not been established; however, it has similarties to xanthan gum, which is considered safe for topical application. Outside the cosmetics industry, succinoglycan is also being explored for its usage in the pharmaceutical and medical fields, where it may play a helpful role in regenerative medicine.
