The Technology
This technology addresses a critical limitation in the use of Astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant with proven health benefits but very low oral bioavailability. Despite its therapeutic potential, Astaxanthin’s lipophilic structure limits its absorption through conventional delivery routes.
The solution is a novel delivery system that transforms Astaxanthin into a bioavailable, digestible format using only natural, food-grade materials.
Advantages
• Plant protein-based encapsulation to protect, disperse and stabilize the active compound.
• Oil-core solubilizing astaxanthin, and enhancing its absorption.
Applications
The technology is solvent-free post-processing, stable at room temperature after freeze-drying, and compatible with oral capsule formats.
