Lactobionic Acid - 98% Pure, White Crystal Powder | Anti-aging, Antioxidant, Superior Humectant With Enhanced Cell Turnover Benefits

These Lactobionic Acid is comprised of one molecule of galactose attached to one molecule of gluconic acid. Lactobionic acid is a new polyhydroxy bionic acid ingredient being introduced into skin care. Formed by oxidation of the disaccharide lactose (milk sugar), lactobionic acid is currently being used in the pharmaceutical industry as a salt form for intravenously delivered erythromycin and in mineral supplementation. Its largest commercial use, however, is as a major constituent of organ preservation fluids during transplantation procedures.
Lactobionic Acid is a safe compound and may be taken orally or intravenously as the counter ion in some vitamin supplements and antibiotics. Furthermore, studies on skin indicate that this compound is safe and non-irritating.
