Peanut Skin Extract Proanthocyanidin 95% Anti Oxidant

Source & Composition‌:

Peanut Skin Extract is derived from the thin red/brown seed skin (coat) of peanuts (Arachis hypogaea), a byproduct of peanut processing. It is rich in polyphenols‌, especially ‌proanthocyanidins (PACs)‌ ( 95%+ content), along with flavonoids, phenolic acids, and antioxidants.

  • Product Name Peanut Skin Extract
  • Botanical Source Peanut Skin/Arachis hypogaea
  • Purity 100% natural
  • Specifications OPC 95%, 120%,140%
  • Test Method UV
  • Solubility Water Soluble

Bioactive Composition

Peanut Skin Extract 's efficacy stems from its dense phytochemical profile:
1, Proanthocyanidins (OPCs): Constitute 60–95% of Peanut Skin Extract , acting as powerful antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress 
2,Polyphenols&Flavonoids: Including catechins and epicatechins, which enhance anti-inflammatory  and  antimicrobial effects .
3, Vitamins & Minerals: Vitamin E (tocopherols), zinc, and magnesium contribute to skin barrier repair and UV protection

Mechanisms of Action

1. Antioxidant Activity​​
​​A: Free Radical Scavenging: OPCs donate electrons to unstable free radicals (e.g., ROS), preventing cellular DNA and lipid damage 
​​B: Enzyme Modulation: Suppresses xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity, reducing uric acid production and mitigating gout or kidney injury 

2. Anti-Inflammatory Pathways​​
​​A: Cytokine Inhibition: Downregulates pro-inflammatory markers (IL-1β, TNF-α) and inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation, curbing chronic inflammation 
B: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress (ERS) Regulation: Alleviates ERS-induced apoptosis in renal cells, protecting against metabolic stress 

 Health Benefits​​

1. Renal Protection​​
​​A: Kidney Injury Mitigation: In rat studies, PSE (200 mg/kg/day) reduced serum creatinine, urea nitrogen, and uric acid by 30–40% in high-fat-diet models, preventing renal tubular degeneration 
​B: Antifibrotic Effects: Suppresses collagen deposition and fibrotic pathways in renal tissues 

2. Metabolic Health​​
​ A, Lipid Regulation: Lowers LDL oxidation and triglycerides, reducing risks of atherosclerosis 
​​B, Hyperglycemia Control: Enhances insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in adipose tissues 

3, Dermatological Benefits​​
​​A, Anti-Aging: Vitamin E and OPCs inhibit MMP enzymes, preserving collagen and reducing wrinkles 
​​B, Acne Management: Zinc and magnesium reduce P. acnes proliferation and sebum overproduction 
​​C, Hyperpigmentation Correction: Vitamin C blocks tyrosinase activity, lightening dark spots and improving skin tone uniformity
