Key Findings

  • Peat ethanol extract combined with isolated humic acids as skin care active complex
  • Active complex: 0.5-1 vol% peat extract + 5-20 mg/ml humic acids
  • Antiradical activity confirmed for peat extract isolated with proposed method
  • Combined extract + HA reduces dermal aging markers
  • Patent filed by University of Latvia (Latvijas Universitate)
  • Same research group as Ramata-Stunda 2015 paper already in graph

European patent from the University of Latvia describing a method for extracting peat active substances and combining them for skin regeneration cosmetics. The invented active complex pairs peat ethanol extract (0.5-1%) with isolated humic acids (5-20 mg/ml). Demonstrates that Latvian peat research has reached the IP protection stage. Same research group (Ramata-Stunda) has published in the academic literature and is already represented in the graph.
