About
Carrot-derived vesicles — a delivery-system ingredient encapsulating carotenoid-rich carrot actives. Food-grade parent; specific vesicle data are thin.
Daucus carota sativa vesicles refers to a liposome/vesicle carrier system derived from carrot, typically phospholipid vesicles loaded with carotenoid and phytosterol actives from carrot root or seed. The parent botanical is a well-established food with a clean safety record; EU CosIng lists carrot extracts without restriction. The vesicle form lacks a specific CIR monograph, and published dermal toxicology on the encapsulated form is sparse. Expected to behave similarly to the parent extract on skin.
