Undecylenoyl Glycine

Undecylenoyl Glycine is a lipoamino acid derived from undecylenic acid (a fatty acid obtained from castor oil) and glycine (a naturally occurring amino acid). It belongs to the class of N-acyl amino acid surfactants, combining the mildness of amino acids with the antimicrobial and sebum-regulating properties of medium-chain fatty acids.

Undecylenoyl Glycine is primarily used in cosmetic and personal care formulations for its gentle cleansing, antimicrobial, and skin-conditioning properties. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of Malassezia species, the yeast associated with dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, making it a valuable ingredient in scalp care and anti-dandruff products. Additionally, it helps regulate sebum production and reduces the adhesion of bacteria to the skin surface.

Due to its mild and non-irritating nature, Undecylenoyl Glycine is suitable for use in sensitive skin formulations, including facial cleansers, scalp treatments, and baby care products. It is also used in hair care products to improve manageability and scalp health.
