Kojic acid is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H6O4 and the molecular weight of 142.11.Colorless prismatic crystals.Used as an antioxidant and radiation repellent.
- Application in the field of cosmetics.In human skin, tyrosine is catalyzed by tyrosinase and oxygen free radicals through complex oxidation, polymerization, and finally synthesis of melanin.Kojic acid can inhibit the synthesis of tyrosinase, and thus can strongly inhibit the formation of melanin, and safe non-toxic, does not produce white spot sequela, so kojic acid has been allocated into lotion, facial mask, lotions, creams, can effective treatment of freckles, age spots, pigmentation, acne and other high-grade whitening cosmetics.Kojic acid at the concentration of 20ug/ml can inhibit the 70-80% activity of various tyrosinase (or PPO), and the general added amount in cosmetics is 0.5 ~ 2.0%.
- Food processing.Kojic acid can be used as food additive to keep fresh, prevent corrosion and resist oxidation.Experimental results show that kojic acid can inhibit the conversion of sodium nitrite into carcinogenic nitrosamines in bacon, and the addition of kojic acid in food will not affect the taste, aroma and texture of food.Kojic acid is also a raw material for the production of maltol and ethyl maltol. It is widely used in food processing.

- Medical field.Because the eukaryotic cells have no mutagenic effect on kojic acid, can eliminate free radicals within human body again, to enhance the role, such as the white power, beneficial to human body health, so has kojic acid as raw materials of cephalosporins antibiotics, medicines used to treat with the finished products produced diseases such as headache, toothache, and local inflammation, analgesia and anti-inflammatory effect is very ideal.
- In the field of agriculture.Kojic acid can be used in the production of biological pesticides.With the addition of 0.5-1.0% kojic acid bio-micro fertilizer (dark red liquid), this crop production accelerator has obvious effect on grain and vegetable yield increase, no matter it is sprayed as foliar fertilizer in low concentration, or made as growth booster for root application.
