Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A bioconjugate of hyaluronic acid and a recombinant human polypeptide designed to combine hydrating and anti-ageing properties in cosmetic formulations.
Ethyl Carbazido Hyaluronate rh-Polypeptide-3 is listed on EU CosIng with a restriction entry II/416 under the Cosmetics Regulation, indicating it requires specific safety evaluation before use. The restriction suggests the Commission identified a potential concern with this particular bioconjugate that warrants case-by-case assessment. Peptide-hyaluronic acid conjugates are innovative cosmetic actives; safety depends on the specific peptide sequence, molecular weight of the HA component, and the carbazido linker stability.
Skin benefits
- Combines hyaluronic acid hydration with peptide anti-ageing activity
- May enhance skin elasticity
- Improved substantivity compared to plain hyaluronic acid
Known concerns
- EU CosIng restriction II/416 applies — must be evaluated for this specific use
- Linker (carbazido) stability in skin is not fully established
- rh-Polypeptide-3 component requires purity verification for recombinant DNA-derived impurities
