Leucidal®
Liquid
INCI
(approved): Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate
Properties:
Derived from Leuconostoc kimchii, the bacterium that has traditionally
been used to make fermented Kimchi.
This
product consists of a peptide that is produced by the bacterial culture during
the fermentation process which has shown to have antimicrobial benefits.
This
ferment filtrate provides an effective combination of skin conditioning,
moisturizing, and antimicrobial properties.
Leucidal®
Liquid SF (Salicylate-free)
INCI
(approved): Lactobacillus Ferment
Properties: A probiotic based ingredient created by the
fermentation of Lactobacillus in a defined growth medium.
The specific manufacturing process yields a unique peptide with
broad spectrum, antimicrobial and conditioning properties. This product of
fermentation is salicylate-free.
Leucidal®
Liquid PT (Powdered or
Spray Treatments)
INCI
(conforms): Lactobacillus Ferment
Properties:
A broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent that compliments current trends for
natural cosmetics and peptide technology. Leucidal Liquid PT is a
fermentation product of Lactobacillus in the presence of undecylenic
acid, derived from castor oil (a sustainable vegetable resource). During
fermentation, the pH and oxygen levels are manipulated to stress the Lactobacillus
culture, inducing the production of beneficial secondary metabolites. The
result is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial product with probiotic skin
conditioning properties. The biotransformation of undecylenic acid by the Lactobacillus
generates water-soluble undecylenates which enhance the anti-fungal
activity of the product while providing surface treatment benefits. As a
result, this product is ideal for incorporation into a wide range of color
cosmetics, emulsion systems and aqueous products.
