Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate Powder

Description

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate Powder

A major issue with using ascorbic acid is that in its natural form in aqueous solutions it is quickly ionized and prone to oxidative degradation. To circumvent this drawback much research has recently focused on derivatives of ascorbic acid which are more shelf-stable in solution and can efficiently penetrate the skin while still retaining all of the skin-benefitting aspects of the parent compound. One such derivative is sodium ascorbyl phosphate, a hydrophilic compound which can be incorporated into a microemulsion and is converted to ascorbic acid after permeation into the skin

Multiple studies on the effects of topical application of sodium ascorbyl phosphate have determined that the dermal effects of sodium ascorbyl phosphate are as or more efficacious than the parent compound. In a cell culture model of sunburn, pretreatment with sodium ascorbyl phosphate prevented the condensation or loss of nuclei typically associated with UV-irradiation, marking sodium ascorbyl phosphate as a promising agent for use in sunscreens. Not only does this decrease the physical assault [burn) associated with sun exposure but also attenuates the mutagenicity of UV irradiation .In a model in which sodium ascorbyl phosphate was applied to human excised skin for 48 hours increases in collagen type I and III as well as cytokeratin were significant, underscoring the potential for sodium ascorbyl phosphate in anti-aging formulations. Due to increased penetration into the skin compared to the parent compound sodium ascorbyl phosphate also can better neutralize products of the melanin synthesis pathway to significantly reduce the appearance of age spots and lighten and brighten skin. Finally, several clinical studies have demonstrated that sodium ascorbyl phosphate is a potent antibacterial agent, improving acne vulgaris. Therefore, sodium ascorbyl phosphate is the ideal choice for anti-aging emulsion creams because it is more stable and bioavailable than magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (MAP), ascorbyl palmitate and ascorbic acid (among other vitamin C derivatives).
