Description

Panax Ginseng Meristem Cell Extract is derived from the meristematic cells of the Panax ginseng plant, a key source of bioactive compounds. Meristem cells are undifferentiated plant cells with high regenerative potential, used for their potent extract properties in cosmetic formulations.

Chemical Composition and Structure:

Active Components: Contains ginsenosides, polysaccharides, flavonoids, and other bioactive compounds derived from the meristem cells.
Composition: Rich in plant growth factors and antioxidants, which may vary based on the extraction method.
Structure: The extract can be a clear or slightly opaque liquid, or in a gel form, depending on the concentration and formulation.

Physical Properties:

Appearance: Typically a clear to slightly opaque liquid or gel, light yellow to light brown in color.
Odor: Mild, characteristic herbal scent.
Solubility: Soluble in water and can be easily incorporated into aqueous formulations.
pH: Generally neutral to slightly acidic, but specific pH may vary based on formulation.

Production Process:

Cell Cultivation: Panax ginseng meristem cells are cultivated in a controlled environment to encourage high yield and potency.
Extraction: Cells are harvested and processed using appropriate solvents or methods to extract active compounds.
Formulation: The extract is purified and concentrated, then formulated into various cosmetic products.

Applications:

Skin Care: Used in anti-aging and skin rejuvenation products due to its high content of plant growth factors and antioxidants. It is believed to improve skin texture and stimulate cellular regeneration.
Cosmetic Products: Commonly found in serums, creams, and masks designed to enhance skin health and appearance.

Environmental and Safety Considerations:

Environmental Impact: Cultivated and processed under controlled conditions, often with minimal environmental impact.
Safety: Generally considered safe for cosmetic use. Individuals with allergies or sensitive skin should use with 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.
