What Are You Looking For?
For centuries, Psoralea corylifolia (commonly known as Bakuchi) has been revered in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Today, its potent bioactive compound—Bakuchiol (C??H??O)—stands at the forefront of cutting-edge cosmetic and nutraceutical research. Extracted from the seeds of this resilient legume, Bakuchiol combines ancient wisdom with validated scientific benefits to deliver multifunctional solutions for modern health and beauty challenges.
1. Longevity & Cellular Resilience via DAF-16/FOXO Pathway
Groundbreaking research reveals Bakuchiol’s profound anti-aging properties. In C. elegans (a model organism for aging studies), Bakuchiol at 37.5 μM extends lifespan by 38% by activating the evolutionarily conserved IIS/DAF-16 pathway. This triggers:
Nuclear translocation of DAF-16 (homologous to human FOXO1), enhancing stress-response gene expression.
Upregulation of SOD-3 (superoxide dismutase), boosting antioxidant capacity by 2.3× and combating oxidative damage .
Dose-dependent protection against heat and ROS-induced stress, independent of gut microbiota.
2. Multi-Targeted Bioactivity for Holistic Applications
Bakuchiol’s small molecular structure enables versatile interactions with biological targets:
Skin Regeneration: Stimulates collagen synthesis, inhibits matrix metalloproteinases (reducing wrinkles), and suppresses tyrosinase (brightening skin).
Antimicrobial Action: Disrupts membranes of S. aureus, E. coli, and C. albicans.
Anti-Inflammatory & Estrogenic Effects: Modulates TNF-α/IL-1β and shows potential for bone health .
Raw Psoralea corylifolia extract contains phototoxic furanocoumarins (e.g., psoralen, isopsoralen), which pose significant safety risks. Our advanced purification process ensures:
Ultra-Pure Bakuchiol (≥99%): Using low-pressure supercritical CO? extraction followed by ethanol solvent separation, alkali treatment, and dynamic resin chromatography to eliminate allergens and toxins.
Zero Residual Solvents: Unlike petroleum ether/acetate methods, our green technology avoids toxic contaminants.
Stability & Scalability: Optimized for industrial production without compromising efficacy.
| Sector | Benefits | Formulations |
|---|---|---|
