Astaxanthin Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble and water-soluble pigment found in marine organisms such as shrimps, crabs, salmon, algae, etc. The human body is unable to synthesise astaxanthin on its own. It is the strongest antioxidant in nature. Its antioxidant activity is 550 times that of vitamin E and 10 times that of beta-carotene, so it is known as the "king of antioxidants"!

Astaxanthin is a chain-breaking antioxidant, has a very strong antioxidant capacity, can scavenge NO2, sulfide, disulfide, etc., but also reduce lipid peroxidation, effective inhibition of free radicals caused by lipid peroxidation astaxanthin.

It has been reported that this product has inhibited the occurrence of tumours, enhance immunity, scavenging free radicals in the body and other aspects of physiological effects on ultraviolet-induced skin cancer has a very good therapeutic effect on diabetes-induced ophthalmopathy is also preventive and curative effect, in health care products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food additives, as well as aquaculture, etc., has broad prospects for application!

Uses and functions of Astaxanthin.

Natural astaxanthin, also known as astaxanthin, is an extremely valuable health raw material that can be used to develop natural, healthy products for boosting immunity, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, eye and brain health, and regulating blood lipids.

At present, it is mainly used as raw material for human advanced health food and medicine; feed additive for aquaculture (currently mainly salmon, trout and salmon) and poultry farming; and cosmetic additive.

It can significantly improve the human body's immunity, due to its ability to bind non-specifically with skeletal muscle, can effectively remove free radicals generated by exercise in muscle cells, strengthen the oxygen-demanding metabolism, and therefore has a significant anti-fatigue effect.

It is the only carotenoid that can pass the blood-brain barrier and has a real anti-aging effect.

Astaxanthin is a potent carotenoid antioxidant found in algae, red yeast and many plant and animal sources. Animal studies have shown that it lowers blood sugar and improves several indicators of diabetic metabolic syndrome. It improves blood flow and vascular tone in hyperemic models. In vitro studies have shown that it upregulates gap junction protein 43, which can be used for chemical cancer prevention.

Astaxanthin is currently widely used as a functional pigment in aquaculture, food, cosmetics and other fields, mainly used as a feed additive for fish, shrimp, crabs and other crustaceans, as well as poultry, to improve the reproductive capacity and survival rate of livestock and fish, to improve the health status, optimise the body colour and meat quality.

Natural astaxanthin has been used as a food additive for food colouring, preservation and nutritional enhancement.

Studies have shown that astaxanthin helps to preserve the freshness of trout fillets.

In recent years, with the astaxanthin biological function research and pharmacological efficacy experiments continue to deepen, astaxanthin because of its cardiovascular disease, cancer, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, ophthalmological diseases, skin diseases and other diseases of the prevention and treatment of the effect and by the scientific community has been a great deal of attention, indicating that astaxanthin in the field of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and other areas of potential application of great value and broad prospects for development. It shows that astaxanthin has great potential application value and broad development prospect in the fields of medicine and health products.

Physiological function of Astaxanthin.

Astaxanthin is a chain-breaking antioxidant, has a very strong antioxidant capacity, can scavenge NO2, sulfide, disulfide, etc., but also reduce lipid peroxidation, effective inhibition of free radicals caused by lipid peroxidation astaxanthin.

It has been reported that this product has inhibited the occurrence of tumours, enhance immunity, scavenging free radicals in the body and other aspects of physiological effects on ultraviolet-induced skin cancer has a good therapeutic effect on diabetes-induced eye disease also has a preventive and curative effect on health care products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food additives, as well as aquaculture and other aspects of the broad prospects for application.

Production process of  Bulk Astaxanthin Powder.

A method of producing chitin, astaxanthin, protein, calcium powder and bio-fertiliser from shrimp shells, the production process is as follows:

1, the shrimp shells, cleaned and mechanically crushed to 5 mesh-10 mesh.

2, in the crushed shrimp shells and shrimp shells added to the weight ratio of 1:1-2 of water, add protease enzyme digestion. According to different varieties of shrimp shells, enzymatic temperature of 30-70 ℃, PH value of 4-8, 2-6 hours, adding protease accounted for the total weight of shrimp shells 0.4% -1%.

3, after the end of the enzyme digestion temperature rise to 70-100 ℃ inactivation of enzyme bacteria, and then cooled.

4, inactivate the enzyme bacteria after adding organic solvent extraction, organic solvent and shrimp shells weight ratio of 1:1-2, fully closed stirring 6-12 hours after cooling.

5, after the full reaction, separated into shrimp liquid and shrimp solid.

6, shrimp liquid for liquid separation, divided into hydrolysate and organic liquid.
