S-OCTOPUS HEXAPEPTIDE-1 SP
Safety score · 0–100
Fine
Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A bioinspired lab-made peptide used for skin-conditioning claims, but the source concept is exotic enough that the public safety record is still thin.
This is a short synthetic peptide modeled on a sequence associated with octopus biology rather than a whole venom component. Dermal exposure is usually tiny, but the ingredient is still a novel bioinspired active with limited independent long-term safety data.
