Kitol
Kitol is peptide used for after-sun repair cosmetics. The dominant degradation reaction for vitamin A derivatives is heat-induced formation of kitols, i.e., dimers or higher oligomers. Vitamin A esters are used as a model system to evaluate microcalorimetry as a tool for monitoring the stability of heat-sensitive substances[1][2].
