Amino acid profile
matriVital stands out thanks to its unique amino acid profile. It is rich in alanine, glycine, proline, and valine, the main components of elastin.
matriVital contains more than 1% isodesmosin and over 2% desmosin. This means it contains two to three times more than conventional elastin.
These cross-linking building blocks (typically approx. 1% in elastin) are crucial for the structural integrity of elastin.
Interesting fact:
Elastin is naturally yellow to yellowish-white! This is due to the desmosine and isodesmosine content in elastin. These special crosslink amino acids not only guarantee a high protein content, but also genuine natural “elastin.” The higher the proportion, the more yellow the elastin.
The whiter the powder, the less elastin it contains!
Certified quality
Our products are manufactured according to the production of raw materials for the food industry according to the HACCP requirements based on the Codex Alimentarius principles (Annex to CXC 1-1969. Rev. 2020)
