Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside
Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside (Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside (2-O-a-D-glucosyl-L-ascorbic acid), or ascorbic acid 2-glucoside, or ascorbyl glucoside), is a derivative of vitamin C that contains glucose stability. This ingredient makes vitamin C convenient and effective for making cosmetics. Creams and lotions containing Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside are used on the skin to lighten skin tone and reduce pigmentation in age spots and freckles. Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside is not only used for whitening, but also for brightening and dimming skin tone, delaying aging and protecting skin in sunscreen products.

Market perspective
Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside (Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside (2-O-a-D-glucosyl-L-ascorbic acid), or ascorbic acid 2-glucoside, or ascorbyl glucoside), is a derivative of vitamin C that contains glucose stability.

Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside is not only used for whitening, but also for brightening and dimming skin tone, delaying aging and protecting skin in sunscreen products.
Bioconversion method is the only way to synthesize Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside at present, that is, transfer glucoside from glucoside donor to position C of Vitamin C by using specific glycogen transfer from saccharide-transferrin enzyme. Vitamin C and glucose donor will have some surplus after the reaction, so after the end of the sugar group transfer reaction, the reaction solution should be separated and purified, and finally the Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside product with high purity can be obtained through crystallization.
Hayashibara has a strong research and development expertise in biotechnology, actively developing and producing functional food ingredients, and joined Nagase group in 2012. Nagase Industries is the leading enterprise in the industry and the production accounted for 63.9% of the global total in 2018.
