About

The growth medium from cultured human urine-derived stem cells, containing urinary tract cell secretions with skin-relevant bioactive factors.

Human urine-derived stem cell conditioned media is restricted under EU Annex II/416 as a material of human origin. Urine is a non-invasive source of stem cells (renal progenitors) that can be collected with minimal ethical concern compared to other human cell sources. The secretome includes urinary tract-specific growth factors and is relatively well characterised. EU compliance requires donor screening and pathogen testing for standard urine microbiology.

Skin benefits

  • Contains renal stem cell-derived growth factors
  • Urine-derived factors may support skin barrier repair

Known concerns

  • EU Annex II/416 restriction
  • Pathogen screening for urinary tract infections required
  • Batch variability from primary stem cell cultures
