Betulinic acid is a triterpenoid substance. Traditional production methods mainly include plant extraction and chemical synthesis. However, its content in plants is low.In skin care products, betulinic acid is a popular botanical active ingredient for its antioxidant and anti-aging properties.

What is betulinic acid good for?

Betulinic acid can be extracted from the bark of birch trees and has the following biological activities:
1. Antiviral. Inhibits HIV replication by targeting viral maturation. It is a potential antiviral drug that is active against certain bacteria and viruses and has good application prospects.
2.For beauty.：
