How we scored it
Fermentation product with trace metal ion; site rule = 1.0.
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
Produced by fermenting Saccharomyces yeast in a medium containing platinum ion salts. No petrochemical route exists; platinum is not explicitly listed among this site's example minerals, hence reduced confidence.
In plain English
A product made by fermenting yeast in the presence of trace platinum ions. Used as a skin-conditioning ingredient.
CosIng definition: Saccharomyces/Platinum Ferment is the product obtained by the fermentation of Saccharomyces in the presence of platinum ions
