Sophorolipid Supplier

In an era where consumers demand beauty products that are both kind to their skin and the planet, the cosmetics industry is turning to nature-inspired innovations. Among these, glycolipid biosurfactants—particularly sophorolipids—stand out as game-changers. But what makes these microbial-derived molecules indispensable in modern formulations? Let’s explore how sophorolipids are redefining clean, effective, and sustainable beauty.This article introduces two products—DropBio® Soph L 50 and DropBio® Soph L—and explores their strengths and ideal applications.   DropBio® Soph L & DropBio® Soph L 50：Antibacterial & Oil control   DropBio® Soph L/L 50 is a microbial secondary metabolite produced by Candida using sucrose, vegetable oil, inorganic salts, water, and growth factors as fermentation substrates under certain conditions.   The structure type can be simply divided into two types according to whether it is 1,4 esterified :one is lactonetype and the other is acid type, the specific structure is as follows: In general, lactone type sophorolipids canreduce the surface tension of liquid, have higher lipophilicity, and have more prominent bacteriostatic properties; The acid locust glycolipid is better water solubility and has more prominent foaming ability.      Clean: Gentle Yet Effective Cleansing   Sophorolipids excel as mild surfactants, but their performance can be tailored through structural modifications. For instance, DropBio® Soph L is engineered for enhanced foaming, making it ideal for lightweight facial cleansers or shampoo formulations where a delicate lather is desired. Meanwhile,  DropBio® Soph L 50 prioritizes bacteriostatic activity, offering dual benefits of cleansing and inhibiting microbial growth—perfect for acne-prone skin or preservative-free products.   Antibacterial: Beyond Basic Hygiene   While sophorolipids generally exhibit mild antimicrobial properties, specialized variants like DropBio® Soph L 50 amplify this trait. Its optimized structure enhances bacteriostatic effects against common skin pathogens, reducing the need for synthetic preservatives. This makes it a star in: Acne serums: Combats breakouts without over drying. Natural deodorants: Inhibits odor-causing bacteria. Sensitive-skin toners: Minimizes irritation while maintaining microbial balance.   If you are interested in our products and want to know more details, please contact judyzhou@drop-bio.com.
