Curcushine™ Enhances Beauty from Within Market

Lipofoods partners with Sphera on turmeric extract encapsulation

 Lipofoods SLU, introduces Curcushine™ microcapsules, a highly bioavailable microencapsulated curcumin for the beauty-from-within market. This innovative formulation is natural and vegan, with high solubility when dissolved in water. It has a neutral taste and can be readily incorporated into nutricosmetics and beauty drinks. The company will launch the product at Vitafoods Europe in Geneva on May 7-9, 2018, booth #K180.

Lipofoods created Curcushine microcapsules in collaboration with the Italian R&D company, Sphera Encapsulation S.R.L. Sphera is dedicated to the research and development of nano- and micro-encapsulation strategies. The collaboration will act through a licensing agreement to market this new, highly bioavailable and water-soluble microencapsulated curcumin source.

Creating a highly soluble turmeric ingredient is challenging. Most curcumin ingredients on the market are water-dispersible, rather than water-soluble. Sphera was able to overcome this challenge by developing an innovative technology that can turn hydrophobic active ingredients into soluble microcapsules via exclusive coating materials and processing.

“Sphera’s proprietary technology is key to fulfilling the increased demand for better-for-you products in new delivery systems,” says Gianni Zoccatelli, CEO of Sphera. “We are excited to partner with Lipofoods, a company committed to the development of innovative botanical solutions.”

“Partnering with Sphera is a strategic move that opens new opportunities for Lipofoods to launch advanced botanical formulations that have a cutting-edge advantage,” declares David Padro, Business Manager of Lipofoods. “Lipofoods is engaged in ongoing research into the anti-aging benefits and other health condition benefits of Curcushine microencapsulated curcumin, seeking out new markets and different food applications.”

The aging process is driven by the lifelong accumulation of molecular damages, mainly due to Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced by mitochondria, as well as random errors in DNA replication. Measurement of ROS levels is a good predictor of oxidative stress and can be used to test the anti-oxidant properties in live cells.

Curcumin has been shown to delay skin aging by protecting skin’s structures and proteins — including collagen and elastin — from oxidative and inflammatory damage. The antioxidant properties of curcumin can reduce ROS in cells and eliminate the effects of advanced glycation species (AGEs) on the divergent regulation of gene expression of receptors.

The innovative delivery system transforms the curcumin into a highly bioavailable formulation using a completely natural encapsulant matrix that protects and embeds the curcumin. The increased bioavailability of Curcushine microcapsules can be attributed to the superior solubility in water due to the small dimension of the particles. The high solubility characteristic also allows easy incorporation of the product into all varieties of nutricosmetics and beauty drinks. The formulation is gluten-free, vegan, plant-based, and kosher- and halal-certified.

“Curcushine microcapsules provides anti-aging benefits and is suitable for multiple nutraceutical applications,” explains Isabel Gomez, Marketing Manager of Lipofoods. “We plan to showcase beauty gummies containing Curcushine microcapsules in our booth at Vitafoods and we will also perform live demos to demonstrate the product´s high solubility.”

Apollo Green to distribute Humboldt Seed Company clonal cannabis genetics to Germany, Portugal and Australia

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Humboldt Seed Company (HSC), California’s leading cannabis seed producer, has announced a partnership with Canadian-based Apollo Green to make eight breeder cuts available to researchers, licensed commercial cultivators and home growers in legal markets worldwide. This first-to-market clonal genetics release is a significant milestone and will expand access to distinctive, high-quality cannabis genetics in both established and emerging global markets including Germany, Portugal and Australia.

The curated, breeder-verified selection includes pioneering triploid genetics, such as OG Triploid and Donutz Triploid alongside the legendary cult classic Blueberry Muffin. Also available are All Gas OG with a THC content of 21% and four high-THC strains in the 30-35% range: Golden Sands, Guzzlerz, Jelly Donutz and Orange Creampop. These selections represent the top .01% from HSC’s extensive California pheno-hunting program.

Exports will begin in May under Apollo Green’s Canadian federal cannabis license. All shipments have Canadian phytosanitary certification, ensuring plants have been inspected, and are clean and free of pests.

“Access for all to quality genetics has been our core focus since the beginning,” said HSC Co-founder and Chief Science Officer, Benjamin Lind. “Our science-based approach to breeding aligns perfectly with Apollo Green’s high standards and we are excited to be able to extend these hand-selected cuts to a wider audience, especially at this pivotal time where we’re seeing positive regulatory changes globally.”

Oisin Tierney, Apollo Green Director of Business Development, said, “California has long been recognized for setting industry standards, and we are proud to play a role in bringing these esteemed genetics to cultivators worldwide. The triploids are especially noteworthy in terms of the unprecedented potential for enhanced plant vigor, higher yields, shorter flowering times and superior returns for solventless extraction.”
