Decarboxy Carnosine HCl is a chemically modified derivative of carnosine, an endogenous dipeptide naturally found in human tissues. It is produced through controlled chemical synthesis to form a stable hydrochloride salt with high purity and consistent quality. Compared with carnosine, decarboxylation improves molecular stability and resistance to hydrolysis, supporting its use in cosmetic formulations.
At the mechanistic level, Decarboxy Carnosine HCl can interact with reactive carbonyl compounds and free radicals, helping to limit oxidative reactions and non-enzymatic glycation processes. Its modified structure also supports enhanced transdermal penetration compared to carnosine.
The ingredient is supplied as a water-soluble powder and shows good compatibility with common cosmetic systems, including aqueous formulations and emulsions, making it suitable for modern skincare product development.
