Sr-(Polypeptide-168 Oligopeptide-178)

Vad är det?

sr-(Polypeptide-168 Oligopeptide-178) is a single chain recombinant peptide, produced by fermentation in Pichia pastoris. The starting gene is synthesized by the fusion of the gene from Polypeptide-168 and Oligopeptide-178. The fusion peptide contains 970 amino acids which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation, and consists of the proper sequence of the 20 standard amino acids.

Vad gör det?

Sr-(Polypeptide-168 Oligopeptide-178) finns i EU:s inventering över kosmetiska ingredienser med följande deklarerade funktioner:

• Surfactant - emulsifying

  surfactant that forms and stabilises emulsions of oil and water — without it, creams and lotions would separate

• Film forming

  forms a thin continuous film on skin, hair, or nails — used in long-wear makeup, sunscreens, and hairsprays

• Skin protecting

  helps shield skin from external environmental factors

• Viscosity controlling

  adjusts the thickness or flow of a formulation

• Slip modifier

  alters how a product spreads and feels on skin — typically making it glide more smoothly
