Natural Eggshell Membrane (ESM) is a naturally derived functional ingredient obtained from the membrane surrounding the inside of chicken eggshells. It is a protein-rich biological matrix containing naturally occurring collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans including chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate and hyaluronic acid.
MEDIOCON INC offers Natural Eggshell Membrane as a nutraceutical ingredient for health supplement and specialized functional formulations, subject to applicable specifications and regulatory requirements.
Eggshell membrane is the thin fibrous layer located between the calcified eggshell and the egg white. It consists of interconnected protein fibers and naturally occurring bioactive constituents. Modern processing methods can separate and dry the membrane into a powder suitable for ingredient applications.
Natural Eggshell Membrane is particularly valued because several structural and functional compounds occur naturally within the same ingredient matrix.
Depending on source, processing and specification, eggshell membrane may contain:
The exact composition varies by manufacturing process and product specification. Published studies have reported protein-rich preparations containing collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans.
