Description

Rubus Chamaemorus Callus is derived from the callus tissue of the cloudberry plant, Rubus chamaemorus, which is cultivated in a controlled environment. The callus is a type of plant tissue that is cultured in vitro and is used in skincare products for its beneficial properties. It is known for its high antioxidant content and potential to provide skin-soothing benefits.

Chemical Composition and Structure:

Rubus Chamaemorus Callus contains a variety of bioactive compounds including polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamins. The specific chemical composition may vary depending on the extraction and cultivation process, but it generally includes compounds that contribute to its antioxidant and skin-nourishing properties.

Physical Properties:

Rubus Chamaemorus Callus is typically a creamy or slightly translucent substance, varying in color from light yellow to beige. It has a mild, natural plant-like aroma. The texture can be somewhat gelatinous or paste-like, depending on the formulation and concentration.

Production Process:

Callus Cultivation:

Culture: Callus tissue is grown in a sterile, controlled environment from the explants of Rubus chamaemorus. The culture medium is enriched with nutrients to support growth and proliferation.
Harvesting: Once the callus reaches the desired growth stage, it is harvested under sterile conditions.

Extraction and Purification:

Extraction: The harvested callus tissue is processed to extract the beneficial compounds. This may involve homogenization and solvent extraction.
Purification: The extract is purified to remove any residual plant material and to concentrate the active components.

Quality Control:

Testing: The final extract undergoes testing to ensure it meets quality and purity standards. This includes analyzing its chemical composition and ensuring it is free from contaminants.

Applications:

Cosmetics: Used in skincare products for its antioxidant properties and potential to soothe and protect the skin. It is often included in formulations designed to address signs of aging and environmental stress.
Personal Care: Incorporated into various personal care products for its skin-nourishing and protective benefits.

Environmental and Safety Considerations:

Generally regarded as safe for topical application.
However, like all plant extracts, it should be used according to established guidelines to avoid potential allergic reactions or skin irritations. It is important to ensure that the extract is sustainably sourced and free from harmful chemicals.

INCI Functions:


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.
