Retinyl glucoside

CAS: 136778-12-6

Retinyl glucoside is a fatty acid that is found in the form of a glucoside with retinol. It is an important ingredient of topical skin care products because it has been shown to be absorbed by the skin and to penetrate into the hair follicle. Retinyl glucoside is also used as a surfactant and as a hydrogenated oil. This product can be used for nutritional purposes, such as its beneficial effect on dry skin, or for biochemical purposes, such as its hyaluronic acid content. Retinyl glucoside undergoes hydrolytic reaction catalyzed by β-glucocerebrosidase and beta-glucosidase to form glucosylceramide.
