About
The growth medium from cultured sheep umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells, facing the same EU animal by-product restrictions as other ovine materials.
Sheep umbilical MSC conditioned media is subject to EU Annex II/419 restriction under Regulation 1223/2009. Ovine materials require TSE-free certification and full traceability to farm of origin under Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009. The use of sheep-derived cells in cosmetics is complicated by the requirement to demonstrate the absence of BSE/TSE agents, which is technically challenging for cell culture systems where donor animal certification may not cover the specific cells used.
Skin benefits
- MSC-derived growth factors with regenerative potential
- Contains immunomodulatory cytokines typical of mesenchymal stem cells
Known concerns
- EU Annex II/419 animal by-product restriction
- BSE/TSE risk from ovine umbilical tissue
- TSE-free certification required for donor animals
