About
Nano-vesicles from Pavlova gyrans microalga. Carries omega-3 lipids and sterols in vesicle form; a novel marine signalling ingredient.
Pavlova gyrans extracellular vesicles are nanoscale lipid-bilayer vesicles isolated from cultures of the marine haptophyte microalga Pavlova gyrans. They are marketed as a vegan, sustainable cosmetic signalling ingredient delivering long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DHA), phytosterols, and pigments. The vesicle ingredient class is novel; no SCCS or CIR opinion exists, and safety rests on supplier dossiers. Microalgal lipid extracts are widely used in food and cosmetics with a generally benign profile.
