Glabridin

Sinónimos: Glabridin, Licorice root extract, Glycyrrhiza glabra extract, 4′,7-Dihydroxy-2′,2′-dimethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-6-carboxylic acid, Glabridin 59870-68-7

Glabridin has become a go-to ingredient for formulators targeting skin brightening and pigmentation control. Unlike many synthetic actives, it offers a well-documented safety profile and dual-action performance—inhibiting tyrosinase and reducing inflammation—making it a staple in premium serums, creams, and spot treatments. The global push for clean-label, plant-derived actives has further accelerated its adoption across both mass and prestige personal care brands.

Chemically, glabridin is an isoflavonoid isolated from the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice). It is the principal hydrophobic component responsible for licorice’s skin-brightening properties. Commercial material is obtained via solvent extraction followed by purification steps such as crystallization or chromatography to reach high purity levels.

LyvBio supplies glabridin standardized to ≥98% by HPLC, a grade suitable for demanding cosmetic and pharmaceutical research applications. Its high purity ensures consistent performance in finished formulations, and it is available in kilogram to multi-ton quantities to support scale-up from bench to production.

Descripción general y composición del producto

Glabridin is a prenylated isoflavonoid with a molecular formula of C20H20O4 and a molecular weight of 324.37 g/mol. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is lipophilic, dissolving readily in ethanol and glycols but not in water. This solubility profile makes it ideal for oil-based and emulsion systems.

Our glabridin is derived from carefully selected licorice roots and processed under strict quality control to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Each lot is tested for assay, identity, and purity, with full documentation available for regulatory submissions.
