Tremella polysaccharide (TFPS) is the main active ingredient of Tremella fuciformis extract. The molecular weight of polysaccharide is 1.08×103Da ~ 3.74×106Da.
Tremella extract polysaccharide, as the main bioactive component of Tremella fungus, has been proven to have the effects of enhancing immunity, lowering blood sugar, anti-aging, and anti-radiation.
In addition, other literature has further shown that TFPS also has excellent moisturizing activity and skin protection functions. It is widely used in health care products and skin care products.
The extraction methods of Tremella polysaccharide include alkaline extraction, acid extraction, enzymatic extraction and microwave extraction.
In recent years, the market demand for Tremella fuciformis extract powder has been growing. It is most commonly used in mainland China and Japan, and is also on the rise in European and American markets.

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.
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.
