ALIBERTIA PATINOI PULP EXTRACT.

Insufficient Data / SKIN CONDITIONING

ALIBERTIA PATINOI PULP EXTRACT, derived from the Borojó fruit, is a botanical ingredient recognized for its potent antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Rich in vital organic acids and polyphenols, it is positioned to protect the skin from oxidative stress and support a balanced microbial environment. It functions as a conditioning agent to maintain overall skin health.

Summary

Antioxidant Antimicrobial Skin Conditioning

Science

Mechanism of Action

This pulp extract exerts its effects primarily through its high concentration of polyphenols, malic, and citric acids, which function as robust free radical scavengers. This antioxidant action effectively neutralizes oxidative damage caused by species like superoxide and hydroxyl radicals. Additionally, its proven antimicrobial capabilities against a spectrum of multi-resistant bacterial strains and fungi suggest a mechanism for reinforcing skin barrier integrity and managing microbial imbalances.

Safety

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Unknown

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not conducted a specific safety assessment, classifying this ingredient as having 'insufficient data.' While 'ALIBERTIA PATINOI FRUIT EXTRACT' is listed in Cosmile Europe without specific use restrictions, *in vitro* studies raise significant concerns. Concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 187.5 µg/mL of an aqueous extract were found to be toxic to human conjunctive (WKD) cells and exhibited anti-proliferative effects on colon cancer (Caco-2) cell lines. These cellular toxicity findings require cautious consideration for topical application concentrations.

Verdict

Insufficient Data

While ALIBERTIA PATINOI PULP EXTRACT presents promising *in vitro* antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits across various concentrations, the current lack of comprehensive safety data from regulatory bodies and observed *in vitro* cellular toxicity classify its overall suitability as 'insufficient-data' for definitive recommendation in precision skincare formulations.
