DEOXYCHOLOYL HEXAPEPTIDE-109

78

Safety score · 0–100

Fine

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

A hexapeptide carrying a deoxycholoyl group — bile-acid-inspired signalling for skin repair. Promising chemistry, but the deoxycholic-acid parent has known cytolytic activity at high % so cosmetic data is read with care; rated cautiously.
