Platinum MatrixEM is a synthetic peptide based on TGF (Transforming growth factor) nano-conjugated to platinum particles. Thanks to the conjugation with platinum particles in the colloid system, this active ingredient exhibits higher bioavailability due to greater protection against skin proteases.
The unique delivery system provides high concentrations available at the fibroblast membrane receptors. It improves the selectivity, effectivity, and activity of Platinum MatrixEM boosting extracellular matrix (ECM) components production including collagen and elastin.
Platinum MatrixEM developed alongside a delivery system to play the role of cellular mediator, modulating given cellular signals to keep the skin appearance in a good shape, healthy, and young. It is a safe ingredient that successfully passed the following toxicity tests:
- Cytotoxicity (on human fibroblasts)
- Het Cam
- RIPT test
- Genotoxicity (micronucleus test)
