L-Carnosine
Description
L-Carnosine (CAS 305-84-0 ), also marketed under the trade name Dragosine, is a naturally occurring dipeptide used as an antioxidant and stabilizing agent across pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic formulations. It protects sensitive ingredients and biological tissues from oxidative degradation, making it a valued functional ingredient where shelf-life extension and cellular protection are formulation priorities. In nutraceutical and dietary supplement manufacturing, it is incorporated into capsules, tablets, and functional beverages targeting cognitive and muscle health positioning for various consumer markets. Pharmaceutical formulators use it to stabilize active compounds against oxidative and carbonyl stress in both oral and topical drug products, ensuring long-term stability and efficacy of the final product. In personal care, Dragosine is used in anti-aging skin care formulations for its ability to suppress glycation-related degradation of skin proteins, supporting high-performance product efficacy claims. Food producers apply it as an antioxidant in processed and functional food products where clean-label, naturally derived stabilizers are preferred for modern consumer demands and regulatory compliance. L-Carnosine is supplied as a white crystalline powder. It is available in food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications, with USP and Ph.Eur. grades accessible for regulated applications. Purity levels of 98% and above are standard for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical procurement, meeting the rigorous quality requirements of global chemical distribution and manufacturing standards.
