The biotechnological processes used to produce hydrolyzed wheat bran make it possible to recover 100% of wheat bran protective chemistry in a bio-available form. The biocatalysts used cut all the polymeric structures at a molecular level, releasing in the water phase a high content of arabinoxylans and bisphenols that are generally covalently linked to the hemicellulose backbones of the bran, and therefore insoluble and not bioavailable.

Chrono-aging and photo-aging might cause a reduction in collagen fibril synthesis, and wrinkle formation on the skin. Bio-liquefied wheat bran which acts on wrinkles due to its complex and highly bio-available chemistry, reactivating the microfibril synthesis that plumps up wrinkles from inside.

The efficacy of hydrolyzed wheat bran has been demonstrated both for skin elasticity and anti-wrinkle effect on healthy volunteers of both sexes aged from 30 to 50. The average results are + 33% viscoelasticity, + 9% elasticity, and - 21% roughness.
