As the use of peptide-based cosmetics grows in skincare, anti-aging, whitening, and other fields, the precise identification of peptide ingredients has become a key aspect of R&D and quality control. The Peptide Cosmetic Ingredients Identification Service is specifically designed for the skincare industry, focusing on identifying and analyzing the structure, sequence, and biological activity of functional peptides in cosmetics. This service provides a solid scientific foundation for efficacy evaluation and formulation optimization.
Peptide ingredients are typically finely structured and multifunctional, but their small molecular size and instability make traditional detection methods inadequate for fully analyzing their composition. MtoZ Biolabs integrates high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), liquid chromatography (HPLC), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) with other advanced techniques to create a comprehensive Peptide Cosmetic Ingredients Identification Service solution, ensuring efficient identification of peptides from sequence to functional characteristics. Our service is suitable for various sample types, including commercial cosmetics, raw materials, and synthetic peptides, helping brands achieve standardized, data-driven support for efficacy validation and product registration.
Services at MtoZ Biolabs
MtoZ Biolabs offers the following sub-services as part of the Peptide Cosmetic Ingredients Identification Service, utilizing a combination of multi-platform technologies.
1. Peptide Ingredient Analysis
We use high-resolution MS (LC-MS/MS), HPLC, and FT-IR to perform a detailed composition analysis of peptides in samples, identifying whether the peptides are target functional peptides and if there are any impurities or degradation products. This step focuses on confirming the active peptide content and structure in peptide extracts, functional peptide raw materials, and finished cosmetics, ensuring the authenticity and consistency of the active components.
2. Peptide Sequence Identification
We employ tandem mass spectrometry and database matching algorithms to determine the amino acid composition and sequence of peptides, identifying whether they are known functional peptides or potential candidates. For new synthetic peptides or unknown natural peptides, we use de novo sequencing strategies to deduce their sequence, supporting functional predictions and literature comparison.
3. Peptide Properties and Impurity Evaluation
After confirming the main components, we assess their physicochemical properties (such as molecular weight, isoelectric point, and hydrophobicity) and potential impurities (such as unacetylated peptides, synthetic by-products, or degradation fragments), providing data to support product purity, safety, and stability control, meeting regulatory filing requirements.
4. Peptide Functional Screening (Optional)
For candidate peptides with unknown functions or those requiring efficacy verification, we offer in vitro cell model evaluations, including antioxidant activity, collagen synthesis promotion, and anti-inflammatory effects, helping clients assess their potential efficacy in skincare formulations.
