Alpha arbutin is a natural active substance derived from green plants and is also found in many freeze-drying-resistant plants. In terms of product application, Alpha arbutin stands out in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries for its excellent whitening effect, high safety performance and mild nature. Its whitening effect is about 10 times that of β-arbutin, and it can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase at a lower concentration, thereby inhibiting the formation of melanin and achieving a whitening effect. In addition, it also has multiple health care effects such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardiovascular protection, and anti-tumor1.Compared with traditional terephthalate whitening agents, Alpha arbutin shows higher safety and stability.
