What is Superoxide Dismutase CAS 9054-89-1?

Superoxide Dismutase CAS 9054-89-1 is a metalloenzyme that catalyzes the conversion of superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. It is supplied as a stabilized protein or lyophilized powder rather than a simple small-molecule chemical.

How is Superoxide Dismutase activity specified?

SOD is usually specified by enzymatic activity, such as units per milligram or IU/mg, rather than only by purity percentage. Buyers should compare activity, protein content, source, and assay method when evaluating different grades.

What is the difference between cosmetic grade and food grade SOD?

Cosmetic grade is selected for topical antioxidant and skin-care formulations, while food or nutraceutical grade is intended for functional foods and supplements. They may differ in source, activity specification, microbial control, and documentation.

What storage and handling conditions should be followed?

Store SOD powder sealed, cool, dry, and protected from moisture and extreme temperature; refrigerated or frozen storage may be recommended depending on the product. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong oxidizers and maintain cleanliness during weighing and use.

Product Description

Superoxide Dismutase, CAS 9054-89-1, also called SOD, is a metalloenzyme that converts superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.

Synonyms: SOD; Superoxide oxidoreductase; Orgotein; SOD enzyme.

CAS: 9054-89-1.

It is supplied as a stabilized protein or lyophilized powder rather than a simple small-molecule chemical.

It is usually specified by enzymatic activity, such as units per milligram or IU/mg, rather than only by purity percentage.

Standard cosmetic/food grade is often offered at 50,000 U/g, customizable from 3,000 to 100,000 U/g.

It is easily soluble in water and has a pH of about 6.5–7.5 in a 1% solution.

It scavenges free radicals to delay skin aging and reduce wrinkles in anti-aging cosmetics.

It protects skin from UV damage and inhibits tyrosinase activity to help prevent pigmentation.

It is used in oral supplements to boost immunity, reduce oxidative stress and improve recovery from fatigue.

It is added to toothpaste and mouthwash to reduce gingivitis and gum inflammation.

It is used as a biochemical raw material for anti-inflammatory drugs.

Encapsulation, liposomal delivery or chemical modification can help protect SOD activity and improve delivery in creams and serums.

Confirm appearance, enzyme activity, source, solubility, pH, loss on drying, protein content, heavy metals, arsenic, total plate count and stability.

Store sealed, cool, dry and protected from moisture and extreme temperature; refrigerated or frozen storage may be recommended.

Avoid prolonged exposure to strong oxidizers and maintain cleanliness during weighing and use.

Confirm packaging with the requested quantity and destination requirements.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

Q:
What is Superoxide Dismutase CAS 9054-89-1?

A: Superoxide Dismutase CAS 9054-89-1 is a metalloenzyme that catalyzes the conversion of superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. It is supplied as a stabilized protein or lyophilized powder rather than a simple small-molecule chemical.
Q:
How is Superoxide Dismutase activity specified?

A: SOD is usually specified by enzymatic activity, such as units per milligram or IU/mg, rather than only by purity percentage. Buyers should compare activity, protein content, source, and assay method when evaluating different grades.
Q:
Why does SOD need stabilization or encapsulation in cosmetics?

A: Enzymes can be sensitive to heat, pH, and formulation stress. Encapsulation, liposomal delivery, or chemical modification can help protect SOD activity, improve compatibility, and support better delivery in creams and serums.
Q:
What is the difference between cosmetic grade and food grade SOD?

A: Cosmetic grade is selected for topical antioxidant and skin-care formulations, while food or nutraceutical grade is intended for functional foods and supplements. They may differ in source, activity specification, microbial control, and documentation.
Q:
What storage and handling conditions should be followed?

A: Store SOD powder sealed, cool, dry, and protected from moisture and extreme temperature; refrigerated or frozen storage may be recommended depending on the product. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong oxidizers and maintain cleanliness during weighing and use.
