Abstract
In order to circumvent the problem of silanols polymerization in food supplement or cosmetics, the stabilizing power of phenolic molecules such as vanillin and frambinone was evaluated using two different siliceous molecules: orthosilicic acid and monomethylsilanetriol. NMR analyses confirmed the absence of polymeric species in formulations, conferring it a good bioavailability. The Silicon-phenol complexes demonstrated interesting biological properties on skin, collagen and cellular ageing proving that this complex reveals all the power of Silicon.
