Co-crystal lutein powder (content over 60% - co-crystallization technology)

Lutein content of 60% or more. Crystalline powder raw material focused on solubility and stability through co-crystallization technology. For formulation development for supplements and functional foods.

Co-crystallized lutein powder is a crystalline powder raw material produced using lutein, a natural pigment component, and edible co-forming components through co-crystallization technology. Lutein is a type of carotenoid found in plants such as marigolds and is used as a raw material for food and supplements. Lutein is susceptible to the effects of light and oxygen and has low solubility in water. Therefore, the stability of the raw material, solubility, and suitability for incorporation into the final product are key considerations in formulation design. This product employs co-crystallization technology that utilizes intermolecular interactions between lutein and co-forming components. Co-crystallization technology aims to improve physicochemical properties such as solubility and stability by controlling the arrangement and crystal structure of molecules without altering the molecular structure of the active ingredient. The lutein content is over 60%. Unlike conventional microencapsulation techniques that involve encapsulating with fine capsule wall materials, this product is designed as a powder raw material with a co-crystal structure. It can be considered as one option in product development that emphasizes not only the content of the raw material but also solubility and formulation suitability.
