LAURYL/MYRISTYL WHEAT BRAN/STRAW GLYCOSIDES.

Insufficient Data CAS - / CLEANSING, EMULSION STABILISING, SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING, SURFACTANT - FOAM BOOSTING, VISCOSITY CONTROLLING

This ingredient is a sugar-based surfactant, derived through the glycosylation of capryl and lauryl alcohols with monosaccharides from hydrolyzed wheat bran and straw. It serves as a versatile agent, enhancing cleansing, emulsification, and foam stability in cosmetic formulations.

Science

Mechanism of Action

LAURYL/MYRISTYL WHEAT BRAN/STRAW GLYCOSIDES functions as a sugar-based surfactant, reducing surface tension to enable effective cleansing. Its amphiphilic structure allows it to facilitate the dispersion of immiscible liquids, thereby stabilizing emulsions, promoting foam generation, and aiding in the precise control of product viscosity.

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not specifically evaluated LAURYL/MYRISTYL WHEAT BRAN/STRAW GLYCOSIDES. While numerous other wheat-derived ingredients have been reviewed, this specific glycoside is not explicitly covered. General concerns from regulatory bodies like RIVM highlight limited hazard data for many botanical ingredients, including potential for allergens (such as gluten, though not explicitly confirmed for this specific ingredient), pesticide residues, and heavy metals.
