About
A defined five-amino-acid synthetic peptide (CAS 336845-55-7) used as a skin-conditioning active. Trace use levels with limited public data.
Pentapeptide-97 (CAS 336845-55-7) is a synthetic five-amino-acid peptide marketed as a skin-conditioning active. The presence of an assigned CAS suggests a stable, defined chemical entity, supplied at parts-per-million concentrations in formulations. There is no SCCS or CIR opinion; toxicology and efficacy rest on supplier dossiers. Short cosmetic peptides as a class are generally non-sensitizing and rapidly metabolised on the skin.
