Common Name(s): Kelp ferment filtrate,kelp ferment filtrate,multi-organism postbiotic ferment,biotransformed active filtrate
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides multi-organism-specific postbiotic metabolite profile alongside substrate-biotransformed actives with enhanced sc penetration.
Why It's Used: Multi-organism ferments deliver unique organism-characteristic metabolites in a stable cosmetic format — the organism selection determines the distinctive bioactive profile beyond standard fermentation.
How It Works: Multi-organism fermentation: organism-specific enzyme expression → unique secondary metabolite biosynthesis + substrate biotransformation.
