Ecdysterone Powder – High Quality 20-Hydroxyecdysone Wholesale

Ecdysterone, also known as Molting Hormone, with the core chemical name 20-Hydroxyecdysone and English name Hydroxyecdysone, is a highly recognized natural plant active ingredient in the industry. Its CAS number is 5289-74-7 and chemical formula is C27H44O7. It is also the core corresponding product for Google search keywords including natural ecdysterone, high-purity hydroxyecdysone, and aquaculture molting hormone raw material.

Extracted from the roots of Commelina tuberosa through professional purification processes, this raw material appears as fine white crystalline powder. It features stable solubility, soluble in methanol and slightly soluble in water. Our flagship specification is HPLC ≥ 98% high-purity ecdysterone. We strictly control quality from the raw material source with low impurity content, perfectly meeting the industrial production demands of multiple industries.

As a multi-functional natural active substance, ecdysterone has a clear functional mechanism. It activates the AC-S protein complex and Pros transcription factor expression through EcR/USP receptors, thereby regulating the conversion of stem cell division patterns. With such unique properties, it holds irreplaceable application value in breeding, cosmetics, agriculture, health nutrition and other industries, ranking as a popular choice in the segmented categories of multi-functional plant extracts and natural insect growth regulators.

Detailed Applications

1. Breeding Industry Application

In sericulture, adding ecdysterone can effectively shorten the growth period of silkworms, make cocooning more uniform, promote silk spinning and cocoon formation, and greatly increase cocoon shell weight and cocoon layer rate to boost farmers’ economic benefits.

For aquaculture, it serves as an essential natural molting hormone raw material for crustaceans such as shrimps and crabs, and an indispensable substance for their growth, development and molting metamorphosis. Reasonable addition helps shrimps and crabs molt smoothly, unify molting cycles, reduce killing among individuals, and significantly improve survival rate and commercial specification. It is also applicable to artificial breeding of ground beetles, acting as a preferred additive for aquatic and special breeding.

2. Cosmetics Industry Application

Cosmetic-grade high-purity ecdysterone is specially refined with a single and pure composition, causing no skin allergy. It owns excellent transdermal permeability and can be rapidly absorbed by the skin in liquid form.

As a high-end skincare raw material, it activates skin cell metabolism and accelerates collagen synthesis with far better effects than ordinary cosmetic ingredients. It delivers outstanding exfoliating, freckle-removing and whitening effects, effectively repairing chloasma, traumatic dark spots, freckles and melanin deposition, and also relieves acne problems remarkably. It is a premium raw material for high-end whitening and skin-repairing cosmetics.

3. Agricultural Industry Application

As an efficient and eco-friendly natural insect growth regulator, ecdysterone shows prominent advantages in agricultural plant protection. When used at a high dosage, it interferes with insects’ normal metabolism and disrupts their growth and development, leading to malformation or death of pests.

Compared with traditional chemical pesticides, it better conforms to the development trend of green agriculture and ecological planting. It protects crop growth while reducing chemical residue, making it an ideal natural raw material for pest control in ecological agriculture and widely suitable for auxiliary pest prevention of cash crops and grain crops.

4. Pharmacological & Health Care Application

Ecdysterone is rich in natural biological activities and delivers remarkable effects on human health conditioning. It promotes collagen synthesis, improves arrhythmia and alleviates physical fatigue. Meanwhile, it stimulates cell proliferation and dermal cell division, accelerates cholesterol excretion in the body, and achieves the effects of blood lipid reduction and blood sugar inhibition.

It also has the functions of dredging meridians, dehumidification and analgesia. It has long been used in folk care for rheumatoid arthritis and effectively relieves various joint discomforts caused by rheumatism.

Clinical studies have verified that 20-Hydroxyecdysone, its core active component, has a total effective rate of 84% for type II diabetes, and obviously improves the typical symptoms of polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria and weight loss. In addition, it is recognized as a natural anti-cancer raw material. Various preparations including tablets, injections and ointments have been developed based on this ingredient, presenting broad development prospects in the pharmaceutical field.

5. Sports Nutrition Supplement Application

As a mainstream natural sports nutrition ingredient, ecdysterone is widely popular in the fitness and sports nutrition industry. It accelerates amino acid assembly into protein chains, stimulates protein synthesis in muscle cytoplasm, and covers the whole process of protein transcription and migration. It efficiently improves muscle protein synthesis capacity, enhances physical performance and accelerates post-exercise recovery for athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Its safety has been verified by more than 50 scientific studies. It causes no side effects and never interacts with human hormones with extremely low toxicity. Toxic reactions only occur at an ultra-high dose of 6400mg/kg. Endocrine tests prove that it will not interfere with hormones such as testosterone, cortisol, insulin and growth hormone in mammals. It is a safe and reliable core raw material for sports supplements and physical endurance enhancement products.
