Description

Kojic acid dipalmitate (Kojic dipalmitate) is a derivative of Kojic acid (HY-W050154), a fungal metabolite that can be produced by species of Aspergillus, Acetobacter and Penicillium. Kojic acid dipalmitate is a slow and reversible competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase. Kojic acid dipalmitate can be used for skin‐lightening agent research[1].

In Vitro

Kojic acid dipalmitate has an excellent property of inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase present in the skin so as to inhibit the melanin formation. Kojic acid dipalmitate is more efficacious than straight Kojic Acid (HY-W050154)[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
