Description

Panax Ginseng Callus Extract is derived from the callus tissue of the Panax ginseng plant. Callus tissue is a type of undifferentiated plant tissue that can be cultivated in vitro. This extract is prized in cosmetics for its regenerative and revitalizing properties, leveraging the high concentration of bioactive compounds found in the callus tissue.

Chemical Composition and Structure:

Active Components: Rich in ginsenosides (saponins), antioxidants, vitamins (such as B vitamins), and other phytonutrients.
Composition: Contains various bioactive molecules that support skin repair, regeneration, and overall health.
Structure: Typically a liquid or gel with high bioactivity, reflecting the potency of the callus tissue from which it is derived.

Physical Properties:

Appearance: Clear to slightly opaque liquid or gel.
Odor: Mild, characteristic of ginseng.
Solubility: Water-soluble and easily incorporated into cosmetic formulations.
pH: Usually between 5.5 and 6.5, which is suitable for most skincare products.

Production Process:

Callus Culture: Callus tissue from Panax ginseng is cultured under controlled conditions in a lab to ensure optimal growth.
Extraction: The callus tissue is processed to extract the bioactive components.
Formulation: The extract is blended into cosmetic products, where it enhances their regenerative and anti-aging properties.

Applications:

Skin Care: Commonly used in serums, creams, and masks to improve skin elasticity, promote cell regeneration, and reduce signs of aging.
Cosmetic Products: Ideal for products aimed at rejuvenating and repairing the skin.

Environmental and Safety Considerations:

Environmental Impact: Cultivation of callus tissue is designed to minimize environmental impact compared to traditional harvesting methods.
Safety: Generally regarded as safe for cosmetic use. Individuals with allergies or very sensitive skin should exercise caution.

INCI:


Antioxidant agent. Ingredient that counteracts oxidative stress and prevents cell damage. Free radicals, pathological inflammatory processes, reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species are responsible for the ageing process and many diseases caused by oxidation.

Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment as it has the function of restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants that can be added in the formulation.

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.
