Edison - NJ - Carotech, the largest and only GMP-certified palm tocotrienol/tocopherol producer in the world will bring you up to speed on the latest research and application strategies for Tocomin® SupraBio™ and Tocomin® 50%C - Cosmetic grade.

The patented SupraBio™ system (US Patent No. 6,596,306; EP 1,170,003) is a self-emulsifying delivery system that guarantees consistent and enhanced absorption of tocotrienols by up to 300%. It is the most bioavailable tocotrienol/tocopherol complex in the market.

Tocomin® SupraBio™ is a precisely formulated liquid suspension that can be readily encapsulated (soft gels and licaps). It is patented in a growing list of countries, which include Europe, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines.

At Vitafoods 2010, Carotech will showcase Tocomin® SupraBio™ 25% - higher concentration, better formulation flexibility for cosmeceutical formulations and Tocomin® 50%C (L) – a specially produced cosmetic grade tocotrienol/ tocopherol complex to cater for topical usage and personal care products.

Clinical studies using Tocomin® natural palm tocotrienol/tocopherol complex have revealed its beneficial effects in anti-aging, scar healing and anti-wrinkling. Some of these studies were on oral ingestion of Tocomin® SupraBio™ and others on topical application, which indicated the potential of Tocomin® as a double pronged beauty ingredient.

The oral formulation of Tocomin® SupraBio™ as a hair growth formulation (US patent No. 7,211,274) to promote hair regrowth in individuals with androgenetic alopecia was introduced in Vitafoods 2009.
