General Description

N-hexadecanoyl-L-aspartic acid, also known as N-hexadecanoyl-L-asparatic acid or N-lauroyl-L-glutamic acid, is a class of amino acid derivative. It is a fatty acid conjugate of L-aspartic acid and has been identified as one of the components of the skin's natural moisturizing factor (NMF). N-hexadecanoyl-L-aspartic acid plays a crucial role in maintaining hydration and moisture balance in the skin. It is widely used in cosmetic and skincare products for its emollient and moisturizing properties. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential in improving skin barrier function and treating conditions such as dry skin and eczema.
