The rheological properties of hyaluronic acid refer to the scientific description of its flow and deformation behavior when subjected to forces, such as shear or stretching. 1. What is Rheology? Rheology is the science that studies the deformation and flow of matter. It bridges the gap between elasticity (like a spring, which can recover its … Continue reading
In June 2025, a controlled study presented at the International Hyaluronic Acid Conference 2025 in the United States showed that potassium hyaluronate (HA-K) performs better than sodium hyaluronate (HA-Na) in treating dry eye disease. By regulating the ionic balance of the tear film, HA-K can increase tear secretion by 22% and reduce corneal fluorescein staining … Continue reading
Nature has always been a rich treasure trove. Modern science is gradually revealing the anti-cancer potential of active ingredients in many traditional herbs. These natural compounds show strong biological activity through various complex mechanisms. These include inducing cancer cell death, inhibiting blood vessel formation, and blocking cancer invasion and spread. We will introduce 12 widely … Continue reading
Hangover supplements work mainly by speeding up alcohol metabolism, protecting the liver, and relieving discomfort. Common hangover ingredients include dihydromyricetin, curcumin, N-acetylcysteine, and B vitamins. These ingredients should be chosen based on individual body needs, but they cannot replace healthy habits like drinking less. What are the Hangover Remedy Ingredients? 1. Dihydromyricetin (DHM) DHM is … Continue reading
Chondroitin sulfate is a widely used over-the-counter dietary supplement. It is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan. It is one of the basic components that make up the extracellular matrix of human cartilage. Like other ingredients such as glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate has been used in the medical field for over 40 years. So, in evidence-based medicine, what are … Continue reading
One of the most well-known functions of hyaluronic acid (HA) is moisturization. Additionally, HA can help reduce wrinkles and accelerate wound healing. However, some believe that while high molecular weight HA has anti-inflammatory effects, low molecular weight HA may trigger inflammatory reactions. But is this really true? Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid Penetrates Deep into … Continue reading
Hyaluronic acid gel is a multi-functional product. It moisturizes, repairs, and soothes the skin. 1. What is Hyaluronic Acid Gel? Hyaluronic acid gel is a gel-like product, like figure 1. Its key ingredient is hyaluronic acid (HA), which naturally found in our skin, joints, and eyes. HA can hold up to 1000 times its weight … Continue reading
When it comes to hyaluronic acid (HA), most people probably think of its use in skincare and joint treatments. SCC has also written many articles on these topics. But there’s more to it. Hyaluronic acid is now recognized as a key material in the development of new biomaterials in the biomedical field. Thanks to its … Continue reading
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan. It was first discovered as early as 1880, and it has been used for decades in orthopedics, ophthalmology, and dermatology. However, it is only in recent years that its unique value in periodontal tissue repair and regeneration has begun to be recognized. Molecular Properties of Hyaluronic Acid … Continue reading
What Are Surfactants Surfactants are special chemicals that can make liquids mix more. The word was named as a combination of “surface active agent.” These chemicals work by reducing the tension between two unlike materials, like two liquids or a liquid and something solid. Every surfactant molecule contains two prominent parts. One is a hydrophilic … Continue reading
