Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A recombinant marine protein active with limited public safety history compared with standard cosmetic peptides.
R-CHAETOCEROS NEOGRACILE POLYPEPTIDE-1 is a fermentation-produced recombinant protein derived from a marine antifreeze-protein sequence. It is unlikely to penetrate skin deeply in finished products, but it remains a niche biotechnology ingredient with limited independent long-term cosmetic data. The concern is uncertainty and novelty, not a clearly proven hazard signal.
