What is Astaxanthin?

Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring ketocarotenoid belonging to the xanthophyll family. It is widely recognized as one of the most potent antioxidants in nature, with an oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) that is:

  • 65x stronger than vitamin C
  • 54x stronger than beta-carotene
  • 14x stronger than vitamin E
  • 6x stronger than zeaxanthin/lutein
  • 3x stronger than resveratrol

Natural Sources

출처 수율 특징
Haematococcus pluvialis (microalgae) 1.5–3% dry weight Highest natural concentration; preferred for human nutrition
Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous (yeast) 보통 Faster production; primarily for aquaculture
Paracoccus carotinifaciens (bacteria) 보통 Fermentation-derived
Synthetic 해당 사항 없음 Petrochemical-derived; used in aquaculture feed

Industry Standard: For human dietary supplements and cosmetics, natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis is the premium choice due to its superior bioavailability and safety profile.


Unique Molecular Structure

Astaxanthin’s exceptional antioxidant activity stems from its unique structure:

  • Two polar end rings (hydroxyl and keto groups) – anchor to cell membranes
  • Polyene chain – scavenges free radicals
  • Transmembrane orientation – protects both inner and outer layers of cell membranes

This allows astaxanthin to neutralize singlet oxygen and peroxyl radicals while protecting membrane phospholipids from peroxidation – a capability few other antioxidants possess.

 자주 묻는 질문

Q: Natural vs. synthetic astaxanthin – what’s the difference?
A: Natural astaxanthin (from algae) is primarily the 3S,3’S isomer with higher biological activity. Synthetic astaxanthin contains a mixture of isomers (3S,3’S, 3R,3’R, and meso) and is not approved for human consumption in most markets. For human nutrition, always choose natural.

Q: What is the recommended daily dosage for supplements?
A: General wellness: 4–6 mg/day; Eye health: 6–12 mg/day; Sports recovery: 8–12 mg/day; Skin health: 6–8 mg/day. Always consult clinical data for specific formulations.

Q: Is astaxanthin stable in gummy formulations?
A: With proper stabilization (antioxidants, low moisture, opaque packaging), astaxanthin can maintain >90% potency for 18–24 months in gummies.

Q: Do you provide custom blends?
A: Yes. We offer private label and custom blending services for supplement manufacturers.

Q: 최소 주문 수량은 얼마인가요?
A: 100g for sample orders; 1kg for trial production; volume pricing available for 25kg+.
