* Reference Intake

185 times more bioavailable than traditional turmeric extract

Micellar solubilization of curcumin ensures fast absorption and high bioavailability. Studies confirm the better absorption of NovaSOL curcumin^®compared to traditional turmeric extracts. Thanks to solubilization technology we obtain a stable, highly bioavailable curcumin.

Products in micellized form form solubilizates of lipophilic (fat-loving, water-insoluble) substances.

These substances are stable in terms of pH and temperature, and their diameter is approx. 30 nanometers. While microemulsions can be unstable, micellized products are an excellent solution in the field of functional food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals or biotechnology (cells and bacterial cultures). Micelles are 100% water-soluble and can be used directly in products regardless of the properties of the other ingredients. Micellized products have been shown to be an excellent carrier for hydrophobic ("water-hating") substances. They ensure better and faster absorption and penetration of active ingredients.

The main benefits of AQUANOVA's micellization process

1. Technology

The transfer of micellized substances (fat-soluble and water-insoluble) into final products takes place directly, excluding further production steps.

2. Absorption/penetration

Scientific studies confirm the high absorption of micellized active ingredients through the skin and intestines. Fat-soluble substances such as vitamin E, are absorbed with the use of bile acid salts and enzymes through the formation of micelles in the small intestine. However, this process is characterized by low bioavailability of the absorbed substances. The use of AQUANOVA's micellized products bypasses the process of micelle formation in the intestines, ensuring higher bioavailability of active substances.

3. Stability

Compared to emulsions, AQUANOVA's micellized products are stable (temperature, pH - gastric acids) and resistant to microbiological contamination.

4. New applications for water-insoluble substances

Micellization of active substances provides new applications of this technology in food, cosmetics and medicines, as well as biotechnology.

5. Environmental protection

Due to the better absorption and bioavailability of micellized active substances, the amount of active ingredients in the final product can be reduced. Such action is environmentally friendly.
