Properties:
L-Carnosineis a dipeptide (sequence: -ala-his) and a well-documented water-based antioxidant that has wound-healing activity and is naturally present in high concentrations in muscle and brain tissue. Carnosing is a scavenging reactive oxygen species and an unsaturated aldehyde formed by the peroxidation of cell membrane fatty acids during oxidative stress. The low molecular weight water-soluble unmodified dipeptide, Ala-HIS, has a very low affinity for skin and does not penetrate beyond the first layer of the stratum corneum. However, the lipophilic peptide palmitoyl-ala-his diffused into the cuticle, epidermis, and dermal skin layers, and no systemic activity was observed.
Application:
OLAY, Chanel, Estee Lauder
