Description

Pleurotus Ferulae/Panax Ginseng Berry Extract Ferment Filtrate is an extract obtained through the fermentation of Panax ginseng berries using the microorganism Pleurotus ferulae. This process results in a filtrate rich in bioactive compounds that are beneficial for skin care.

Chemical Composition and Structure:

Active Components: Contains ginsenosides, polysaccharides, peptides, amino acids, and other metabolites produced during fermentation. These components are known for their hydrating, soothing, and anti-aging properties.
Molecular Weight: Varies depending on the specific bioactive compounds present; includes a range of low to medium molecular weight substances.
Structure: Composed of soluble proteins, peptides, and other metabolites in a liquid form, often including polysaccharides and organic acids.

Physical Properties:

Appearance: Typically a clear or slightly turbid liquid, depending on concentration and formulation.
Odor: Generally neutral or slightly earthy, characteristic of the fermentation process.
Solubility: Soluble in aqueous solutions.
pH: Usually slightly acidic to neutral, reflecting the fermentation process.

Production Process:

Fermentation: Panax ginseng berries are fermented with Pleurotus ferulae in a controlled environment. This process breaks down the compounds in the berries into more bioavailable forms and produces additional beneficial metabolites.
Filtration: After fermentation, the mixture is filtered to remove solid residues and concentrate the liquid filtrate containing the active compounds.
Purification: The filtrate may undergo further purification to enhance stability and remove any residual impurities.
Formulation: The purified filtrate is incorporated into cosmetic formulations, such as serums, creams, and masks, designed to provide the benefits of the fermented ingredients to the skin.

Applications:

Skincare Products: Used in various skin care products to provide benefits such as improved hydration, soothing effects, and anti-aging properties.
Cosmetic Formulations: Included in creams, serums, and masks to leverage the advantages of probiotic fermentation and active compounds from ginseng berries.

Environmental and Safety Considerations:

Environmental Impact: The fermentation process may be more sustainable compared to traditional extraction methods, as it can require less plant material and energy.
Safety: This ingredient is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics and personal care products when used as directed. Individuals with allergies to ginseng or sensitive skin should exercise caution.

INCI:


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.
