Application
Industrial applications :
Our products meet the highest standards and all relevant regulations of the pharmaceutical industry and are manufactured under GMP conditions on industrial scale. The followings are the industrial applications of the PCs.
Pharmaceutical applications :
Phospholipids (PL) are amphiphilic molecules and areintegral part of the membrane of any living cell. They areindispensable to life and are involved in the metabolism and respiration of the cells.
Due to their functional properties, phospholipids are ideal additives in pharmaceutical applications that offer excellent opportunities to the developers of pharmaceutical formulations a such as liposomes, emulsions, mixed micelles, solid lipid nanoparticles, suspensions and coating of active ingredients.
The application of these systems makes it possible to impact on the release, absorption, bioavailability and efficacy of drug and vital substances.
Cosmetic applications :
Phosphatidylcholine is predominant within this important group of lipids. Due to their ability to form structures similar to those of cell membranes and the lipid layers in the stratum corneum (SC) as well as their affinity towards the SC lipids, phospholipids are ideal raw materials for the preparation of functional cosmetics with high skin compatibility. Phospholipids give the skin smoothness and elasticity. Hydrogenated phospholipids strengthen the natural skin barrier function leading to reduced moisture loss. PCs are natural and skin compatible, biodegradable and therefore environmentally friendly & toxicologically safe. Due to their amphiphilic character, phospholipids can fulfill different functions in cosmetic formulations. Therefore PCs are used as Actives (Active ingredient), liposome builders, penetration enhancers and stabilizers.
