Sytheon has published a new peer reviewed study with Synoxyl AZ (Acetyl Zingerone).
A multifunctional ingredient whose design was inspired by Zingerone from ginger in nature, Synoxyl AZ exhibits high efficiencies to neutralize all reactive oxygen species (ROS) (including 1O2, _OONO and •OH). This is important since daily exposure to environmental stressors keeps skin under a persistent burden of excess ROS, which drives premature skin aging.
The article explores the multiple benefits of Acetyl Zingerone, as a single ingredient, to proactively manage excess ROS production in skin via sacrificial (i.e., chemical) and non-sacrificial (i.e., physical) pathways.
The ability of Acetyl Zingerone to neutralize ROS through non-sacrificial pathways provides longer-lasting performance and differentiates it from many conventional antioxidants. Moreover, AZ is not a pro-oxidant and is photochemically stable in contrast to commonly used antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Resveratrol. Synoxyl AZ thus represents a true translational step forward in development of more efficacious molecules to treat or prevent the consequences of intrinsic and extrinsic skin aging through superior management of excess ROS production.
