Factory Manufacture Retinyl Acetate Powder 290w IU/g
Vitamin A Acetate: Product Introduction
Vitamin A acetate, also known as retinyl acetate, is not naturally occurring and is primarily prepared through chemical synthesis or biotransformation. Its acetate form exhibits significantly enhanced chemical stability, is not easily oxidized, and is converted into bioactive vitamin A in the body via esterase hydrolysis. It is currently the most widely used form of vitamin A supplement in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and feed industries. YTBIO provides you with a high-activity vitamin A acetate raw material of 2.9 million IU/g, suitable for various fields such as food fortification, dietary supplements, and functional skincare products.

Product Benefits
Metabolic Pathway
After ingestion and absorption, vitamin A acetate is first hydrolyzed into retinol (vitamin A alcohol) by esterases in the liver or skin. Retinol is then oxidized to retinaldehyde, which participates in visual formation. Retinaldehyde is further oxidized to retinoic acid, which binds to retinoic acid receptors in the cell nucleus, regulating downstream gene expression and affecting cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. Ultimately, it is excreted in the liver by binding with glucuronic acid or by oxidation into other metabolites.
Visual Health
After vitamin A acetate is broken down into retinol in the body, it is further oxidized to retinaldehyde, which combines with opsin to form rhodopsin. Rhodopsin is a key substance for the retina to perceive dim light.
Skin Health
It helps promote normal differentiation and keratinization of epithelial cells, maintaining the barrier integrity of the skin, respiratory mucosa, and digestive tract mucosa.
Anti-aging Effects
Vitamin A acetate is a classic anti-aging ingredient. It stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin, promotes keratin metabolism and renewal, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and improves rough skin and photoaging.
Promotes growth, development, and reproductive performance
Vitamin A participates in bone development, sex hormone synthesis, and embryo formation, playing a vital role in normal growth, development, and the maintenance of reproductive system function.
Antioxidant effects
Vitamin A has a certain ability to scavenge free radicals, helping to reduce oxidative stress damage to cells and slowing down the aging process.
