Description

s-Hibiscus Sabdariffa Oligopeptide-1 Amide is a synthetic peptide derived from a 12 amino acid sequence of Roseltide, a peptide found in Hibiscus sabdariffa. The parent peptide, Roseltide, comprises up to 27 amino acids and may include disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation. The synthetic oligopeptide retains the key amino acid sequence for its intended cosmetic effects, with the amide modification enhancing its stability and efficacy.

Chemical Composition and Structure:

Amino Acid Sequence: A single chain peptide based on a 12 amino acid sequence derived from Roseltide, which consists of the 20 standard amino acids.
Molecular Weight: Generally low due to the small size of the peptide.
Structure: Single chain peptide with potential amide linkage, based on the Roseltide sequence, with possible disulfide bonds or glycosylation in the parent peptide.

Physical Properties:

Appearance: Typically a clear or slightly cloudy solution.
Odor: Usually odorless or has a faint characteristic scent.
Solubility: Soluble in water and aqueous solutions.
pH: Neutral to slightly acidic, depending on the formulation.

Production Process:

Synthesis: The peptide is synthetically produced based on a 12 amino acid sequence from Roseltide found in Hibiscus sabdariffa. The amide modification is introduced to enhance stability and effectiveness.
Purification: The synthetic peptide undergoes purification to remove impurities and ensure high purity.
Formulation: The purified peptide is incorporated into cosmetic formulations, often in sieri, creams, or lotions.

Applications:

Skin Care: Used in anti-aging and skin rejuvenation products due to its potential benefits in improving skin hydration, elasticity, and repair.
Cosmetic Products: Incorporated into various skincare products such as serums, creams, and masks for its cosmetic benefits on skin texture and appearance.

Environmental and Safety Considerations:

Environmental Impact: Synthetic production should follow sustainable practices to minimize environmental impact.
Safety: s-Hibiscus Sabdariffa Oligopeptide-1 Amide is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics. People with specific allergies or sensitivities to peptides should be cautious.

INCI:


Skin protectant. It creates a protective barrier on the skin to defend it from harmful substances, irritants, allergens, pathogens that can cause various inflammatory conditions. These products can also improve the natural skin barrier and in most cases more than one is needed to achieve an effective result.

Skin conditioning agent - Miscellaneous. This ingredient has the task of modifying and improving the condition of the skin when it is damaged or dry, reducing flaking and restoring its elasticity.
