Alpha glucan oligosaccharide


Alpha glucan oligosaccharide, also known as APG, Sparteine or Triton, is a polysaccharide that plays an important role in many biological processes. This substance is mainly used in the cosmetic industry in various products such as creams, lotions, shampoos and conditioners. It is widely used mainly because of its gentle cleansing abilities and benefits on the skin. This natural cleanser provides gentle and effective cleansing of the skin without the need for any chemical cleansers.

In addition to the cosmetic industry, APG is also used in the food industry as a prebiotic. It promotes the growth of bacteria that are beneficial for gut health. Another use is in the production of semiconductors, where this oligosaccharide is used as an additive to regulate the properties of electrons. Triton, as Alpha glucan oligosaccharide is also called, can also be found in medical research where it is used to study biological membranes of nanotechnology. It should be noted, however, that although this substance has a wide range of uses, its possible negative effects on health and the environment are still the subject of scientific investigation.
