About

Lysed (broken open) cultured plant cells from Camellia sinensis callus, used as a bioferment-derived skin-conditioning ingredient in advanced cosmetics.

Camellia sinensis callus lysate consists of cultured undifferentiated plant cells from the tea plant that have been lysed to release their intracellular contents. The ingredient combines the established safety profile of green tea-derived materials with the novel bioactive potential of cultured cell technology. EU cosmetics regulation does not restrict lysed plant cell preparations; however, the full intracellular composition requires standard safety assessment. The ingredient is analogous to other plant cell lysate cosmetic ingredients already on the market.

Skin benefits

  • Concentrated source of tea-derived polyphenols and intracellular compounds
  • May contain growth factors and nucleosides from cultured cells

Known concerns

  • Cultured cell preparations may contain unexpected secondary metabolites
  • Standard sensitization testing recommended for novel preparations
