The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with ectoine experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. Ectoine is a chemical known as tetrahydropyridine or tetrahydromethymidine carboxylic acid. It is an amino acid derivative and originated in Egypt’s salt lake. The molecules of this chemical are highly absorbable and structurally remarkable, which acts as “little shields” encircling the DNA of the bacterias and enzymes. It has lesser exposure to the intense UV rays in high-salt conditions. Its molecular structure supports it to have the strong complexing ability with water molecular. High concentrations of the product confer tolerance to salt and temperature stress in halophilic bacteria. Ectoine has now been discovered in a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It was first discovered in the bacterium Ectothiorhodospira halochloris.
The synthesizing process of ectoine is three successive enzymatic reactions that start from aspartic beta-semi aldehyde. ectA, ectB, and ectC are the names of the genes that participate in the biosynthesis process. It is used in the manufacturing of various medicines and cosmetics. It is used in skincare, eye care, makeup, hair, and body care products. The population worldwide is inclined toward the adoption of advanced skin and beauty care products, which is projected to foster market growth.
