Safety score · 0–100

Fine

Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

A fermented rice/rice-bran filtrate produced with Aspergillus mold (similar to sake/koji chemistry). Mild and conditioning, but allergen risk warrants care.

This ingredient is the filtered liquid from Aspergillus fermentation of rice and rice bran, similar to the sake/koji process. The filtrate contains amino acids, oligopeptides, organic acids, and small sugars that contribute humectant and skin-conditioning effects. Aspergillus species can produce allergenic proteins and, in some uncontrolled cases, mycotoxins, so reputable suppliers control fermentation strain identity, sterility, and downstream filtration. No CIR or SCCS-specific review; safety is generally inferred from related koji/rice-ferment ingredients with long use in food and skincare. Best used at low % in formulations with full supplier QC documentation.
