Lignins have shown remarkable antioxidant properties; acting as â??scavengersâ? of free\nradicals physiologically produced by cell metabolisms; and exerting a protective action caused\nby the strong ability of these molecules to absorb UV radiation. Through preliminary Molecular\nModeling studies and experimental studies in vivo and in vitro, a lignin hydrolysate compound has\nbeen shown to be an extremely versatile active ingredient, presenting soothing, anti-inflammatory,\nanti-itch, anti-oxidant, anti-aging and anti-pollution properties. The possible fields of application are\ntherefore multiple; making this lignin hydrolysate a particularly interesting ingredient for topical\ndermatological compositions in the treatment of various skin disorders such as inflammation, edema,\nswelling, rash, redness, itching, chrono- and photo-induced skin aging. These manifestations are also\nthe basis of more or less serious skin problems, making lignin hydrolysate capable of being used in\ncosmetic products for the eternal challenge of fighting skin aging, but also in medical devices that can\nbe used to fight more painful and annoying symptoms, like those caused by dermatitis or psoriasis.
