LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE ●
TL;DR. This ingredient is used as a preservative-support ingredient, mainly helping limit microbial growth in water-based formulas. It is often paired with other preservation tools for broader yeast and mold coverage.
What does LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE do in a cosmetic formula?
This ingredient is used as a preservative-support ingredient, mainly helping limit microbial growth in water-based formulas. It is often paired with other preservation tools for broader yeast and mold coverage.
Is LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE clean?
It is generally well accepted in clean-beauty frameworks because it is fermentation-derived and usually low in irritation potential. The main caveat is performance, since it may need a booster or companion preservative depending on formula pH, water activity, and packaging.
Is LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE sustainable?
This material is made through plant-based fermentation and is readily aligned with biodegradable, low-persistence chemistry. Its footprint depends on agricultural inputs, fermentation energy, and supplier practices, but it has a favorable profile versus many fully petrochemical preservative systems.
Is LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE COSMOS-approved?
It is typically permitted under COSMOS-natural and COSMOS-organic when the fermentation substrate, processing aids, and carrier system meet standard requirements. From a Green Chemistry view, it fits well because it uses renewable feedstocks, aqueous processing, and biodegradable fermentation metabolites.
How does LEUCONOSTOC/RADISH ROOT FERMENT FILTRATE work chemically?
The material is an aqueous it containing small antimicrobial peptides and fermentation metabolites produced by lactic acid bacteria. Typical use levels are about 2 to 4 percent, with best performance in mildly acidic to near-neutral systems and with co-preservation when fungal challenge is a concern.
