100% natural origin · ISO 16128

Is Avena Sativa Peptide natural?

Yes. Peptides come directly from oat (Avena sativa) protein with only physical separation, so all atoms are plant-derived.

How we scored it

Peptide fraction of oat protein isolated by ultrafiltration: plant protein atoms only. 1.00.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.

Where it comes from

Dominant route extracts oat protein and isolates the peptide fraction by ultrafiltration. No synthetic route is used.

In plain English

Short protein fragments (peptides) taken from oat protein by passing the extract through a very fine membrane. They are used to form a thin film and to condition skin and hair. They come entirely from oats.

CosIng definition: Avena Sativa Peptide is the peptide fraction isolated from the Oat, Avena Sativa L., Poaceae, Protein Extract by ultra-membrane filtration
