Ergothionein is a kind of natural antioxidant and a unique cell physiological protective agent, which has many physiological functions such as scavenging free radicals, whitening, anti-aging, preventing ultraviolet radiation damage, maintaining DNA synthesis and normal cell growth

1 Whiten
Ergothioneine is a natural antioxidant that is highly protective of cells, non-toxic, and is not easily oxidized in water, which allows their concentration in some tissues to reach 7mmol-L and activates the cell's natural antioxidant defense system. Research results show that the amount of ergothione added to cosmetics reaches 0.01%-0.03%, which can hinder pigment formation and deposit, and whiten the skin.

2. Antioxidant: Highly effective antioxidant, anti-aging.
L 'Oreal has applied for a patent entitled "Use of ergothioneine and/or its derivatives as an anti-glycation agent", which proposes that ergothioneine and its derivatives have the effect of reducing or even preventing protein glycosylation. To prevent age-related loss of skin elasticity, modify and improve facial contours, and prevent or improve the appearance of orange skin lines.

3. Sun protection
In the ultraviolet absorption range, ergothione has a similar absorption wavelength to DNA, a molar extinction coefficient of 1.4*104 M-1 cm-1, max257, which can minimize the formation of reactive oxygen species and protect cells from radiation damage, therefore, ergothione can be used as a physiological filter of ultraviolet. Many studies have shown that ergothione can avoid the damage of ultraviolet radiation on the skin, and is a very effective sunscreen ingredient.

4. Anti-inflammatory, acne
Inflammation is the body's response to an infection of the skin, and excessive UV exposure and stress are all causes of inflammation. Studies have shown that ergothione has an anti-inflammatory effect in skin cells, and it is even more effective when combined with vitamin C. Elizabeth Arden has done the application experiment of ergothione on the repair effect of UV-induced skin inflammation, showing that the combination of idobenzene and ergothione can reduce the skin inflammation and light damage caused by UV.

5. Synergistic effect
Ergothione can regulate the REDOX reaction in the cell, participate in the regulation of energy in the cell, is the physiological protection agent of the cell, biological and pharmacological properties and its safety and stability. Therefore, adding ergothionein to a product can not only maintain the stability of other ingredients, but also promote the absorption of active ingredients by cells, which has a good synergistic effect, effectively enhance the efficacy of other ingredients, and achieve the effect of 1+1>2. For example: the use of ergothionein in an antioxidant product, not only can it play a strong antioxidant effect on its own, but also can cooperate with other antioxidants to strengthen its vitality.
