We also conducted seminars on GO-VC® and Nanosphere® for Technology Forum.
1) May 19, 2021 13:15 to 13:45 (Room G)
Title: The function of Nanosphere®, oil-rich nanocapsule whose membrane is composted of amphiphilic vitamin C/E derivatives

【Abstract】
Nanosphere® is a nanocapsule whose outer shell is made from vitamin C/E derivatives and expected to have the synergy effects between the encapsulated components and vitamin C/E derivatives composing the outer shell. The outer shell of Nanosphere® is composed of several vitamin C/E derivatives, of which GO-VC® is particularly characteristic. GO-VC® is a highly stable vitamin C derivative where glycerin and octanol are introduced to vitamin C and could show various skin physiological effects such as skin barrier function-enhancing effect. Therefore, Nanosphere® whose outer shell is made from GO-VC® is expected to show various skin physiological effects, and these effects could be further enhanced by synergies with the encapsulated components. In addition, Nanosphere® could enhance the stability and skin permeation of encapsulated components and has clinical test data on various skin troubles by dermatologists. In this seminar, we will introduce the various functions of Nanosphere® in detail.

2) May 20, 2021 12:30 to 13:00 (Room A)
Title: The antibacterial activity and the skin barrier function-reinforcing effect of GO-VC®, an amphiphilic vitamin C derivate: For preventing chapped hands by using alcohol-based hand sanitizers

【Abstract】
GO-VC® is a highly stable amphiphilic ascorbic acid derivative where glycerin and octanol are introduced to ascorbic acid and has been confirmed to have antibacterial and antiviral activities. Therefore, the addition of GO-VC® to the alcohol-based hand sanitizers is considered to lead to the enhancement of the antibacterial and antiviral activities. Furthermore, GO-VC® could reinforce the skin barrier function through the up-regulation of tight junctions, resulting in the suppression of skin dryness. Therefore, GO-VC® is suitable for the care of skin roughness and dryness after using alcohol-based hand sanitizers. In addition, GO-VC® has been confirmed of clinical effects on the spots, wrinkles, and acne by dermatologists and their action mechanism, and is also recommended to add to cosmetic products for anti-aging. In this seminar, we will introduce the various effects of GO-VC® on the skin in detail.
