Product Identification
Description
Ectoine is a low-MW cyclic amino acid (compatible solute) produced by halophilic bacteria to stabilize proteins, membranes, and nucleic acids under osmotic/thermal/UV stress. First characterized from Ectothiorhodospira halochloris(hence "Ecto-ine"), now commercialized via Halomonasfermentation (DE origin legacy) and synthetic-bio routes (CN large-scale).
