I. Origin of polyglutamic acid
Polyglutamic acid is also known as natto gum, also known as polyglutamic acid, it is a water-soluble substances, is the application of microbial fermentation after the microbial polymer materials, it has a very good effect on the human body conditioning, you can maintain the skin's extensibility, with a leek often good skin beauty effects, there is a very good moisturising hydration of the actual effect of the human body's immune system to enhance the ability to promote the physical and mental health of the skin, can give full play to the very good effect. Natto can give full play to the very good effect.
Natto is a traditional fermented soya food that is widely consumed by the Japanese. After fermentation, natto is richer in vitamins (B2, B6, B12, E, K2) and more easily digestible proteins than soybeans, and also contains a variety of digestive enzymes, special polysaccharides, thrombolytic enzymes and gamma polyglutamic acid (gamma PGA), which are beneficial to your health. Natto has become very popular in recent years as a means of promoting health.
γ-PGA is the main component of the viscous colloid of natto, which has the effect of promoting mineral absorption, Japan has included γ-PGA in the list of health care ingredients to promote mineral absorption. Due to its special molecular structure, γ-PGA has a strong moisturising ability, and adding γ-PGA to cosmetics or skin care products can effectively increase the skin's moisturising ability and promote skin health. Adding γ-PGA to cosmetics or skin care products can effectively increase the skin's moisturising ability and promote skin health. Compared to hyaluronic acid, which is recognised as the most moisturising ingredient, the moisturising effect of γ-PGA exceeds its effect by 2-3 times, making it a new generation of biotechnological moisturising ingredient.
II. The role of polyglutamic acid in plants
Polyglutamic acid can better transport the nutrients and water in the soil to the plant, and form a protective film on the roots of the plant to protect the root hairs of the plant, so that the plant's growth is better.
Polyglutamic acid can also absorb the nutrients in fertiliser and transport them to plants, improving the conversion rate and use of fertiliser. The composition of soil is relatively complex, but polyglutamic acid can stop the precipitation caused by the chemical reaction between certain acid root ions and metal elements, thus promoting the development of plant roots and improving the plant's resistance to disease.
After applying polyglutamic acid for 5-7 days, the leaves of plants become green and thicker, the growth is structured and upright, and the root hairs of plants are developed by 15% after 15 days, which can make the utilisation rate of fertiliser increase by 20%, and the average yield of crops increase by 10-25%, and the yield of root crops increase by more than 60%.
polyglutamic acid and nutrient ion adsorption and exchange capacity is 100 times of the natural soil, can effectively prevent the fertiliser phosphate ions, sulphate ions and oxalate ions and metal elements to produce precipitation. So that the plant can more effectively absorb the phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and other elements in the soil.
long-term application of chemical fertilisers will make the soil acidity weak, but polyglutamic acid can well regulate the nature of the soil. Polyglutamic acid also binds toxic heavy metals, filters them, integrates plant nutrients, enhances the active ingredients in the soil and improves plant disease resistance. In addition, polyglutamic acid can improve the yield of agricultural products such as melons, fruits and vegetables.
Polyglutamic acid can enhance the uptake and utilisation of trace elements and phosphate fertiliser. In addition, polyglutamic acid can improve the cation exchange capacity of soil, temporarily store adsorbed cations such as calcium, magnesium and other trace elements, and then slowly release them into the soil to replenish it.
III.Application of Polyglutamic Acid
γ-Polyglutamic acid is the main component of natto viscous colloid, with the role of promoting mineral absorption, Japan has been included in the list of health care ingredients to promote the absorption of minerals. γ-Polyglutamic acid special molecular structure, so it has a strong moisturising ability, add γ-Polyglutamic acid in cosmetics or skin care products, can effectively enhance the skin's moisturising ability to promote skin health, and its strong moisturising ability is better than hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid, HA) and collagen (collagen), as a new generation of biotechnology moisturising ingredients, the new generation of biological technology. Its strong moisturising ability is better than hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen, which is a new generation of biotechnology moisturising ingredient, so it is widely used in Japanese cosmetics.
The relative molecular weight of γ-polyglutamic acid is 10,00~2000,000 Da. γ-polyglutamic acid is mainly used in cosmetic products in the following aspects.
1. γ-Polyglutamic acid aqueous solution is a colourless, odourless and transparent gel, due to its special three-dimensional lattice structure, it has a strong 5000 times water absorbing and moisturising ability, coupled with its smooth skin feel and easy film forming properties, it can significantly enhance the skin's moisturising effect, reduce water loss and promote the skin to restore its elasticity. Compared with hyaluronic acid, which is the best known moisturiser, it is far superior to hyaluronic acid in terms of moisturising and water retention.
2. Studies have shown that the addition of γ-PGA to skin care products can work synergistically with other whitening ingredients to significantly inhibit the production of melanin, with the effect of whitening the skin.
3. Due to the superior film-forming properties of γ-PGA, the addition of γ-PGA skin care products can form a layer of breathable bio-protective film on the surface of the skin, locking the skin moisture at the same time can resist external aggression, blocking ultraviolet rays, in the anti-haze and sunscreen products, showing excellent results.
4. γ-PGA can increase the content of natural moisturising factors in the skin's stratum corneum, promote the growth of fibroblasts in the deeper layers of the skin, balance the skin's pH, restore the skin's elasticity and smooth out fine lines caused by dehydration of the skin.
In addition, gamma-polyglutamic acid added to oral care products can increase the fineness of the foam, the formation of a protective film in the oral cavity and on the tooth surface, to help repair the enamel and oral mucosa, to reduce the damage caused by abrasives to the teeth; at the same time, gamma-PGA formed by the film can help the teeth resist external pollutants and bacterial invasion, to inhibit the formation of dental caries. Suggested dosage: 1~3%.
γ-Polyglutamic acid adsorption in the hair surface, the formation of film can not only prevent the evaporation of water inside the hair, but also its viscosity can play a role similar to glue, repairing the upcoming shedding of hair scales, strong hair at the same time can block the haze on the invasion of hair. Suggested addition amount: 1~3%.
Due to its superior water absorption and moisturising properties, film-forming properties and biodegradability, γ-polyglutamic acid can be added to make-up products in the right amount to significantly improve the product properties and create "green, natural and safe" innovative efficacy of make-up products for you. For example, the addition of polyglutamic acid to lipstick and foundation products can form a protective film on the surface of the muscle, significantly improving the condition of chapped lips and dry skin, blocking environmental pollution and giving you super moisturised and natural make-up.
Gamma-polyglutamic acid can be added to detergents and fabric softeners to bring the fabric soft feel, at the same time, because of its strong water absorption and moisturising ability, gamma-polyglutamic acid can be attached to the fabric fibres to form a film, blocking the pollution, strong adsorption of perspiration, so that the clothing is worn with a more refreshing and comfortable, to reduce due to the fabric irritation led to the occurrence of rashes, eczema, is an essential ingredient for babies and functional clothing finishing agents. It is an essential ingredient in baby and functional clothing finishing agents.
