What is D-arbutin Deoxyarbutin?

Arbutin is glycosylated hydroquinone that is commercially used as skin-whitening agents in the cosmetic industry. Depending on the anomeric pattern of the glycosidic linkage between glucose and hydroquinone, arbutin forms two epimers: α-arbutin, D-arbutin and β-arbutin. 

Function of D-arbutin Deoxyarbutin.

Hyperpigmentation in the epidermis is caused by excessive melanin synthesis due to UV irradiation, wound or stress. Tyrosinase is one of the key enzymes involved in melanin synthesis. The enzyme catalyses the first two steps in melanin synthesis: the hydroxylation of tyrosine to DOPA and the oxidation of DOPA to dopaquinone. Arbutin has an direct inhibitory function against tyrosinase, which leads to the prevention of melanin formation and a whitening effect on the skin.

Application of D-arbutin Deoxyarbutin.

1.Deoxyarbutin can improve the metabolism of sunburn skin caused by radiation.

2.Deoxyarbutin can evidently diminish the pigmentation caused by ultra-violet radiation.

3.Deoxyarbutin restrains the melanogenesis through the cells poisoning reaction on melanin cells, and the blocking mechanism on tyrosinase.

4.Deoxyarbutin can diminish the senile yellowish brown plaque, also effective for lentigines diminishing.
