About

Nanocarrier vesicles from Dendrobium orchid roots carrying polysaccharides and phenanthrenes that hydrate and soothe the skin.

Dendrobium Officinale Extracellular Vesicles are secreted by cultured orchid root cells into the growth medium. They carry polysaccharides (glucans), phenanthrenes (denbinobin, ludbin), and flavonoids as bioactive components. Denbinobin is a phenanthrene with anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Polysaccharides from Dendrobium have demonstrated moisturising and humectant effects in skin hydration studies. The EV platform enables enhanced delivery of these hydrophilic and lipophilic compounds.
