Resveratrol or Pterostilbene? A review of two promising stilbenes
Stilbenes are phytochemicals, a subclass of polyphenolic compounds. They are naturally found in a wide variety of plant based dietary sources such as grapes, blueberries,
By applying our proprietary crystal engineering platform, we aim to dramatically optimize the health benefits of known functional nutritional ingredients such as pterostilbene, ubiquinol, sitosterol and vitamin D, in order to develop innovative nutraceutical products in emerging health and longevity markets for humans and pets.
Through cocrystal engineering CIRCE Scientific has developed PTEROVITA a unique proprietary combination of Pterostilbene and Picolinic Acid. This combination improves pterostilbene oral bioavailability 10-fold with respect to Pterostilbene alone, boosting the great benefits of this known functional ingredient that open new possibilities in functional food and beverages, as in oral nutraceutical formulations.
CIRCE Scientific has developed a unique proprietary combination of ubiquinol and protocatechuic acid (PCA). This new form stabilizes ubiquinol (the reduced form of Coenzime Q10), avoiding its oxidation to keep its improved benefits when it reaches the body, and making it 25% more bioavailable.
Through cocrystal engineering CIRCE Scientific has developed a proprietary combination of Beta-sitosterol and propionic acid which improves sitosterol water solubility 7-fold, improving its natural health benefits in oral nutraceutical formulations.
CIRCE Scientific has discovered a new proprietary cocrystal combination form of Vitamin D3 that is much more stable than the vitamin by itself or in stabilized formulas and can become the basis for very efficient formulations of Vitamin D3 with longer shelf life.
CIRCE Scientific has discovered new solid forms (cocrystals) of selected nutraceutical ingredients to improve healthy living and longevity. CIRCE Scientific unique technology presents significant improvements compared with original ingredients in regards to key parameters such as solubility, stability, and/or bioavailability unlocking their health benefits and market potential.

What is longevity? In demography, we define longevity as “length of life” or “life expectancy”. The most commonly used measure is “life expectancy at birth”, which considers
What is ionizing radiation? Radiation can be classified according to its effect on matter. Normally, “radiation” refers to ionizing radiation[1], meaning the separation of electrons
