Where to buy Ascorbyl Glucoside(AAG)

Ascorbyl Glucoside(AAG) has a structure in which the C2-hydroxyl group of L-ascorbic acid is masked with glucose. Once selectively permeated through the skin, ascorbyl glucoside is broken down into L-ascorbic acid and glucose by the enzyme alpha-glucosidase.
Because ascorbyl glucoside is broken down into L-ascorbic acid, it has the same functions as L-ascorbic acid: exhibiting high antioxidant activity, acting as a coenzyme for enzymes involved in collagen synthesis (namely prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase), and inhibiting the synthesis of melanin.
Ascorbyl Glucoside(AAG) is a new type of stable vitamin C derived compound.It used in many cosmetic skin-lightening formulations and for the Department of Health announced one of the effective whitening ingredients.
