Oléo-eco-extraction (OEE) is an eco-process intensified by high energy microwaves (MW) and low frequency ultrasounds (US) using natural triglyceridic oils as green, safe and bioactive extractants. To reduce production time and energy, a new co-intensified [MW+US] process has been applied with an innovative biomimetic solvent inspired both from plant membranes and skin cells. This concept, called OSMOSTM, is able to increase the extraction yield of phyto-molecules as well as their bioavailability as a skin delivery system.
The OSMOSTM concept provides a new plant and skin biomimetic system for green intensified eco-extraction of cosmetic actives that are safe, non-oxidized, stable, dry-touch, organic certified and highly bioavailable.
