Jiejing brand fucoxanthin
Fucoxanthin
Fucoxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid found in brown algae, distinguished by its unique allene molecular structure, which grants it multiple bioactive properties.
Fucoxanthin Molecular Formula : C42H58O6
Fucoxanthin CAS NO.: 3351-86-8

Fucoxanthin benefits:
Research has confirmed that fucoxanthin:
1.Promotes Fat Metabolism
Fucoxanthin exerts anti-obesity effects primarily by stimulating the expression of uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) in white adipose tissue (WAT). This protein, typically found in brown adipose tissue (BAT), is not normally expressed in white fat cells without external stimulation. Studies show that fucoxanthin not only enhances the expression of UCP-1 and its mRNA but also promotes fat breakdown and thermogenesis through β3-adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) activation.

Fucoxanthin color & Form
The color of fucoxanthin powder varies from orange-red to reddish-brown as purity increases, while the oil form appears as a red to reddish-brown liquid.
Competitive Advantages of Jiejing brand fucoxanthin
As the pioneer of fucoxanthin manufacturer and supplier in China, Shandong Jiejing Group takes more advantages:
High Purity – The company spearheaded market research on the production status and global market of fucoxanthin extracted from brown algae in the seaweed chemical industry. By optimizing purification processes, we achieve purity levels exceeding 99% (referenced against SIGMA’s standard), addressing the lack of testing standards for high-purity fucoxanthin.
Standard-Setting Leadership – The company led the development of the group standard "Brown Algae Extract—Fucoxanthin," resolving the long-standing absence of standardized guidelines for fucoxanthin products in China. This milestone has been pivotal in regulating domestic and international markets and lays a foundation for future industry, national, and even international standards.
Standardized Testing – Most market fucoxanthin products are sold as mixed powders, often tested via UV methods, leading to inconsistent results due to non-standardized procedures. Our company employs a combined TLC (Thin-Layer Chromatography) + HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) approach for dual qualitative and precise quantitative analysis, ensuring unified and accurate testing standards.
Fucoxanthin Specifications
We supply fucoxanthin with purity levels ranging from 1% to 80%. For specialized applications (e.g., pharmaceutical research or scientific studies), we can produce higher-purity fucoxanthin powder (up to 95%).
Storage Conditions
Fucoxanthin is highly sensitive to temperature and light, with degradation and loss of efficacy occurring under high heat or strong light exposure. It must be stored in a cool, dark environment.
