Product Details

Proteoglycans – The Next-Generation Skincare & Joint Health Ingredient

1. Introduction

Proteoglycans are highly bioactive macromolecules composed of a protein core and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains. They play a critical role in skin hydration, joint lubrication, anti-aging, and tissue regeneration. Due to their exceptional water-retention and bioactivity, proteoglycans are widely used in cosmetics, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceutical applications​.

Chibio Biotech provides high-purity Food-Grade Proteoglycans (≥98%), ensuring maximum efficacy and safety for diverse applications.


2. Chemical Information of Proteoglycans

  • CAS Number: Not universally assigned (varies by type, e.g., dermatan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, etc.)
  • Molecular Formula: Varies depending on structure (protein + glycosaminoglycans)
  • Molecular Weight: Varies based on source and extraction method

Solubility

Water – Highly soluble (hydrophilic nature allows excellent absorption)
Ethanol & Methanol – Slightly soluble
Oils & Non-Polar Solvents – Insoluble

📌 Key Properties:
Superior Moisture Retention – Retains more water than hyaluronic acid (HA).
Supports Skin & Joint Health – Stimulates collagen production & cartilage regeneration.
Highly Biocompatible & Safe – Derived from natural sources such as cartilage, skin, or seaweed​.


3. Technical Specification of Food-Grade Proteoglycans

📌 High purity & compliance with safety standards for nutraceutical & cosmetic applications​.


4. Key Benefits of Proteoglycans

💦 Superior Hydration & Anti-Aging – Binds water molecules more effectively than hyaluronic acid, improving skin elasticity & reducing wrinkles.
🦴 Joint & Cartilage Health – Helps lubricate joints, repair cartilage damage, and prevent osteoarthritis.
🛡 Enhances Collagen & Elastin Synthesis – Boosts skin regeneration & firmness.
🔥 Anti-Inflammatory & Wound Healing – Supports tissue repair & reduces oxidative stress.
🌱 Improves Skin Barrier Function – Strengthens epidermal integrity & reduces water loss.


5. Applications of Proteoglycans

Industry Recommended Use Application
Cosmetics & Skincare 0.1%-2% Proteoglycans Moisturizers, anti-aging serums, skin-repair creams
Joint Health & Supplements 5%-20% Proteoglycans Bone & joint supplements, cartilage repair formulas
Functional Foods 0.5%-2% Proteoglycans Beverages, protein powders, fortified foods
Pharmaceuticals 2%-10% Proteoglycans Wound healing gels, arthritis treatments
Biomedical & Anti-Aging Research 5%-10% Proteoglycans Regenerative medicine, bioactive coatings

📌 Proteoglycans are widely used in high-end skincare, nutraceuticals, and regenerative medicine due to their unique bioactive properties​.


6. Production Process Flowchart
