Lecithins & Phospholipids

Lecithin Liquid is a food additive generally used as emulsifier. It is 100% pure lecithin, non-modified, non-fractioned. Lecithin Liquid is a surface-active agent with unique properties, derived from vegetable oilseed source. It can modify the boundary layers between many types of substances.

In the presence of two immiscible liquid phases, lecithin reduces the surface tension and acts as an emulsifier. Lecithin Liquid is a Standard Soya Lecithin, which acts as emulsifier. Along with emulsification, it also adds value to the nutrition of the product being rich in Phospholipids.

Matrix Life Science Brings To You Organic Sunflower Lecithin Powder Lecithin is used across a wide range of industries today and serves purposes such as lubrication and emulsification, among others. Lecithin products are typically obtained from sunflower and soy. It is available in liquid, powder and granular form.

Lecithin Powder is an oil-free lecithin obtained from de-oiling of Standard Soya Lecithin liquid. De-oiled Lecithin (Powder) is a pure form of Phospholipids. De-oiled Lecithin is also more hydrophilic than Standard Liquid Lecithin. Organic Sunflower Lecithin Powder is a safer alternative than other lecithin forms as it is GMO-free & allergen free.

Application

Organic Sunflower Lecithin Powder is used as an emulsifier in foods like bakery products and confectionery.

It is used as an emulsifier in cosmetic and skin care to help bind the small amounts of oil into large amounts of water. It improves rapid and complete spreading of creams and lotions.

A Multi-Purpose Nutraceutical Ingredient

It contains fatty acids that can activate gene controlling receptors (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors). Once activated, these receptors play a major role in energy balance and metabolic functioning. It is a source of essential nutrient choline, which plays a role in memory, cognitive and physical functioning. It produces liposomes which are mainly used as delivery systems to encapsulate both water-soluble and oil-soluble compounds in a skin-compatible structure, which facilitates the penetration and helps active ingredients to reach selected target. It is used in preparations for intravenous or skin injections. It is used to stabilize and prevent medicines in the preparations from separating out.

In Pet Food:

In animal feed, fats (as an energy source) need to be provided to the animals along with roughage, protein and vitamins. In order for this dosed fat to be taken up by the animals, lecithin is required. Further, it allows the transmission of fat soluble vitamins into the bloodstream.

Lecithin Powder is an oil-free lecithin obtained from de-oiling of Standard  Lecithin. De-oiled Lecithin (Powder) is a pure form of Phospholipids. It is more convenient to handle since the oil has been removed from it. De-oiled Lecithin is also more hydrophilic than Standard Liquid Lecithin.

Phosphatidyl Choline is a highly purified form of PC with higher content of PC. It exists in brown waxy solid form Lecithin contains four Phospholipids- PC, PI, PE, PA, out of which PC is most important.

PC-PHOSPHATIDYL CHOLINE: Of Tens and Thousands of molecules that make up living cells, PC stands apart. PC is a major constituent of the cell membranes. PC reigns supreme of all cell constituents.
