Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan (a type of polysaccharide) which is present in all living organisms. It belongs to the most numerous group of compounds which have an identical chemical structure in both bacteria and human beings. Its name comes from the Greek word hyalos, meaning glass. Its colourless, translucent, and glassy as the name suggests.
Hyaluronic acid present in the skin is one of its key components. The ability to bind water in the epidermis inhibits creation of wrinkles and makes skin elastic. What is more, it maintains water in the organism and the level of tissue fluid contained in the extracellular matrix. Hyaluronic acid protects skin against drying and enhances its defensive.

Functions
1. Promotes Healthier, More Supple Skin.
2. Hyaluronic acid also plays a key role in wound healing.
3. Hyaluronic acid is also found in the joints, where it keeps the space between your bones well lubricated.
4. Hyaluronic acid supplements may help reduce symptoms of acid reflux.
5. Hyaluronic acid is excellent at retaining moisture, it’s often used to treat dry eye.
6. hyaluronic acid supplements can help slow the rate of bone loss in rats with osteopenia, the beginning stage of bone loss that precedes osteoporosis.
7. Hyaluronic acid can relieve bladder pain when inserted directly into the bladder through a catheter, but taking supplements by mouth may not have the same effects.
Application
1. Food Industry
We recommand Food Grade with the Molecular Weight 800,000Da-1,200,000Da. It can be added into drinks, mink products, health care capsules, etc.
2. Cosmetic Industry
(1) <10,000Da (Super Low Molecular Weight):
Making hyaluronic acid smaller means it can reach a bit farther into skin’s uppermost layers for visibly enhanced results, so it has the best effect of moisturzing and anti-aging.
(2) 10,000Da-200,000Da (Low Molecular Weight)
It has better moisture effect than regular molecular weight.
(3) 200,000Da-1,600,000Da (Regular Molecular Weight)
It can retain moisture, keep the skin firm, and prevent wrinkles by adding volume to the skin.
(4) >1,600,000Da (High Molecular Weight)
It can keep moisturing for longer time, and repair skins.
3. Eyedrop Industry
We recommand Eyedrop Grade for you. It can be used in eye surgeries including cataract removal, corneal transplantation, and repair of a detached retina and other eye injuries.
4. Injection Industry
We recommand Injection Grade for you. It can be made into HA filler used on our body, like face, lip, breast, etc.
