Tremella Polysaccharide

1. Product Introduction

Tremella Polysaccharide (TFPS) is the core active ingredient extracted from Tremella fuciformis (snow mushroom), featuring a wide molecular weight distribution ranging from 1.08×10³ Da to 3.74×10⁶ Da. As a high-activity natural plant polysaccharide, it can be produced via mature extraction technologies including acid extraction, alkaline extraction, enzymatic hydrolysis and microwave-assisted extraction.

Modern pharmacological studies have fully verified that TFPS possesses multiple biological activities, including immune regulation, hypoglycemia, anti-aging and anti-radiation effects. In addition, tremella polysaccharide exhibits outstanding moisturizing and skin barrier protection capabilities. With the booming global demand for natural functional raw materials, TFPS market consumption continues to grow steadily. It is widely popular in China and Japan, and its market acceptance and application volume in Europe and America are also rising rapidly, widely used in high-end skin care cosmetics and functional health products.

1. Anti-oxidation
In vitro studies have shown that low molecular weight polysaccharides have better antioxidant activity than high molecular weight polysaccharides.Polysaccharide content and antioxidant activity vary depending on Tremella species and origin.

2. Moisturizing function, it is currently the only plant-derived moisturizer with a molecular weight exceeding 1 million. The recommended concentration is 0.10%. Research shows that adding 0.05% polysaccharide to skin care products is more effective than adding 0.02%.

3. The anti-sensitivity effect.
The product promotes and stimulates cell proliferation.It can prevent microvascular aging, promote skin wound healing, and minimize erythema-induced wounds.

2. Core Functions & Efficacy

2.1 Powerful Antioxidant & Anti-aging Activity

In vitro experimental studies confirm that tremella polysaccharide has excellent free radical scavenging and antioxidant capabilities. Low-molecular-weight tremella polysaccharide shows more prominent antioxidant activity than high-molecular-weight polysaccharides. Its antioxidant efficacy varies slightly according to tremella strains and origin environments. It effectively reduces oxidative stress damage, delays skin and bodily aging, and delivers reliable anti-radiation protection.

2.2 Top-grade Long-acting Moisturizing Performance

TFPS is currently the only plant-derived moisturizing ingredient with a molecular weight exceeding 1 million Da in the industry. With a unique macromolecular water-locking structure, it forms a dense protective water film on the skin surface. The recommended optimal addition concentration is 0.10% in cosmetic formulations. Relevant tests prove that 0.05% TFPS addition achieves significantly better moisturizing effects than conventional 0.02% addition dosage, bringing long-lasting and non-sticky hydration.

2.3 Anti-sensitivity & Skin Repair

Tremella polysaccharide effectively stimulates skin cell proliferation and regeneration, repairs damaged skin barriers, accelerates skin wound healing, and relieves erythema and skin irritation. It also prevents microvascular aging, enhances skin tolerance, and improves sensitive and fragile skin conditions, serving as a mild and efficient repair ingredient for sensitive skin care.

2.4 Immune Regulation & Hypoglycemic Activity

As a classic functional polysaccharide, TFPS enhances human immune activity and regulates body metabolic level. It assists in blood sugar regulation and improves sub-health state, widely applied in the research and development of immune-enhancing and hypoglycemic functional health products.

3. Main Application Fields

3.1 Cosmetics & Skin Care Products

Tremella polysaccharide is a water-soluble natural active ingredient with mild properties and excellent skin compatibility. It is widely added in toners, essences, serums, facial masks, moisturizing creams and lotions, focusing on moisturizing, anti-aging, anti-sensitivity and skin barrier repair effects.

3.2 Hair Care Products

TFPS can form a uniform protective film on the hair surface, effectively moisturizing dry hair strands, replenishing hair nutrition, improving hair dryness, frizzy and split ends problems. It is commonly used in hair masks, conditioners and other high-end hair care formulations.

3.3 Functional Health Products

Relying on its advantages of immune enhancement, anti-oxidation and hypoglycemic regulation, it is widely used in the production and formulation of various functional dietary supplements and health foods.

1. As an ingredient in skincare and cosmetics.
As a water-soluble polysaccharide, it can be found in toners, serums, masks, creams, lotions, and other skin-care products.
2. Use in hair care products.
Furthermore, some producers include it in hair care products such as hair masks and conditioners.
It moisturizes and nourishes the hair by creating a protective coating on the surface.
