Antarcticine® marine ingredient with SA

A Glycoprotein from the Antarctic Sea with cryoprotective, restructuring and antiwrinkle properties. During the Antarctic summer of 1988, a Spanish scientific expedition collected mud samples from the inlet Admiralty Bay, on King George Island, Antarctica. A new bacterial strain, Pseudoalteromonas Antarctica, was isolated from these samples and characterized. During growth, the bacteria produced an extracellular material, an exopolymer of glycoproteins believed to help the bacteria retain water, adhere to surfaces, and withstand the extreme cold. Its protective function in nature has been applied in cosmetics by the scientists at Lipotec to regenerate and protect the skin. In nature, Antarcticine® has the function of protecting the bacteria against harsh conditions. In cosmetics, Antarcticine® maintains its natural bioprotective properties and promotes keratinocyte growth and fibroblast adhesion for a skin regenerating effect and enhanced wound healing.   Benefits of Antarcticine® Helps the skin retain water, preventing cutaneous dryness Presents a cryoprotective effect due to its ability to modify the morphology of ice crystals Stimulates fibroblast adhesion and keratinocyte growth, regenerating tissues and enabling a faster healing of wounds Increased collagen type I and IV, as well as elastin, resulting in a restructured skin and a reduction in wrinkles Reduces the depth of wrinkles, especially on the forehead and around the eyes INCI: Water, Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract, Salicylic Acid, Sodium Hydroxide Important Note:  Antarcticine® is a registered trademark of Lipotec and it cannot be referenced in your marketing literature without a signed Trademark Agreement with Lipotec.
