Product Information

• Name: β-Aescin
• Synonyms: b-Escin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: β-Aescin is a saponin glycoside, which is derived from the seeds of the horse chestnut tree (Aesculus hippocastanum). It acts primarily through anti-inflammatory mechanisms and improves vascular permeability. By inhibiting enzymes such as hyaluronidase and elastase, β-Aescin reduces the breakdown of glycosaminoglycans and supports capillary integrity. This results in decreased edema and improved venous tone, making it beneficial in reducing symptoms associated with chronic venous insufficiency.
