Rice Bran Extract Ceramide | SOST: A professional manufacturer of high-purity natural ceramides
What is Rice Bran Extract Ceramide?
Natural ceramides are widely found in rice bran, wheat germ, soybeans, konjac, and milk. Among these, rice bran (Oryza sativa L.) is listed by international COSMOS/ECOCERT as the "preferred plant sphingolipid source" due to its lipid composition being highly similar to human sebum and its extremely low allergenicity. SOST Biotech uses non-GMO japonica rice from the Hanjiang Plain in Shaanxi Province. Rice bran is collected at low temperature within 4 hours after the milling process, and then purified through supercritical CO₂ degreasing, molecular distillation dewaxing, and enzyme hydrolysis-chromatography coupling to obtain an edible-grade powder with a total lipid content of ≥80% and a ceramide purity of 1%-10%. The entire process is free of acetonitrile, acetone, and plastic microspheres, complying with food and cosmetic raw material regulations in China, the United States, and Europe.

Advantages of Ceramide powder in Food & Cosmetics

A.Food Applications
Oral Barrier Function: Ceramide upregulates filaggrin and involucrin through the "gut-skin axis," and clinical studies have shown that 0.8 mg/kg daily can reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) by 16%;
Anti-Glycation and Antioxidant: Inhibits AGEs (advanced glycation end products) in the stratum corneum, brightening and evening skin tone;
Stable and Friendly: Rice bran-derived, gluten-free, lactose-free, and suitable for vegetarians. Can be added to functional gummies, ready-to-drink oral liquids, capsules, and compressed candies. Withstands high-temperature pasteurization;
Mature Regulations: The Chinese National Health Commission's Announcement No. 5 of 2021 has listed "rice bran extract (containing ceramide)" as a general food ingredient, eliminating the need for new resource food applications.

B.Cosmetic Applications
Instant Repair: "Homogeneously compatible" with intercellular lipids of keratinocytes, quickly filling the lamellar structure in 15 minutes, relieving stinging after chemical peels and laser treatments;
Long-lasting Moisturizing: 5 times stronger water molecule binding capacity, maintaining stratum corneum water content ≥30% for 24 hours;
Anti-aging and Firming: Activates PPAR-α receptors, promoting the synthesis of endogenous ceramide and type IV collagen, resulting in a 12% reduction in wrinkle volume in 8 weeks;
Strong Compatibility: Stable in non-ionic, anionic, and cationic systems, suitable for all product categories including serums, lotions, creams, sunscreens, makeup removers, and shampoos.
