Col-Frag™ is a type I collagen fragment bioidentical to human collagen, obtained from Nicotiana benthamiana, a species used as a biofactory.
Through an exclusive process, a specific mRNA directs the plant's synthesis of type I collagen for a specific period of time.
This is an innovative and safe way for a plant species to produce a fragment of type I collagen identical to human collagen.
In the skin, Col-Frag™ stimulates the synthesis of type I collagen by fibroblasts, as well as minimizing the action of the metalloproteinases MMP1 and MMP-2, synergistic actions that result in an increase in skin firmness and luminosity and a reduction in wrinkles, according to studies.
Vegan type I collagen fragment
Fragmento de colágeno tipo I vegano
Collagen is a protein of animal origin and is found in different organs and tissues.
For a long time, the consumption and topical application of collagen was a common routine for those seeking alternatives for the beauty or health of their skin, hair, bones and joints.
However, with increasing concern for animal welfare and the growth of the vegan public, the use of collagen is no longer simple due to its origin.
For this reason, synthetic alternatives produced by yeasts, bacteria and plants have become increasingly sought after. To meet this demand, Col-Frag™ was developed, a type I collagen fragment bioidentical to human collagen, produced by the Nicotiana benthamiana biofactory.
