For two decades, Merck has invested its expertise into discovering new benefits of the active substance, RonaCare® Ectoin.
DiscoverNature is full of resources to protect life, even under extreme environmental stress. Discover RonaCare® Ectoin, a nature and science proven system to provide all round protection and care against the adverse effects of sunlight, pollution and stress!
RonaCare® Ectoin supports your skin’s immune system and provides skin cells with their own protective shell, safeguarding them from harmful external influences.
The power of RonaCare® Ectoin relies on the extremolyte ectoine, a small protection molecule naturally produced by extremophilic bacteria. Extremophiles are organisms living under extreme environmental stress conditions (such as heat, cold, UV-stress, dryness, high salinity). They generate small protection molecules – called extremolytes – that help them maintain cell stability and allow them to survive in those inhospitable habitats. Ectoine is one of these extremolytes produced by halophilic bacteria i.e. bacteria that thrive in environments with very high concentrations of salt.
Extensive efficacy testing - in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo - make RonaCare® Ectoin an exceptional nature and science proven system to protect your skin against external factors.
