This pure peptide is the synthetic form of G-P-Hyp tripeptide that can significantly increase collagen synthesis and repair the skin. Degradation of collagen is one of the leading causes of wrinkle formation. Topical applications of soluble collagen can mask the appearance of wrinkles. However, maintaining collagen levels is imperative in a comprehensive, anti-aging skin care regimen. Today, using these basic amino acid building blocks, we can produce natural, biomimetic peptides, thus bio-identical activity. AC Collagen Prepeptide PF is a pure (>99.7%) G-P-Hyp tripeptide where the Proline and Hydroxyproline are sourced from Glutamic Acid, a proteinogenic amino acid, found in Seaweeds. Glycine, however, is derived from ammonia. AC Collagen Prepeptide PF is produced without the use of animal derived products or genetically modified organisms. With a molecular weight of 285 D it shows excellent bioavailability. This product is ideal for anti-aging skin care applications where promoting wrinkle reduction, firming and plumping benefits are desired.
