INGREDIENT BRAND
Ollantein®
From Antarctic deep-sea research to ingredient applications.
Ollantein® is Vigenent’s commercial ingredient brand. Developed from research involving Olleya marilimosa, it connects microbial research and fermentation-derived ingredients with skincare and nutraceutical application evaluation.

ORIGIN & RESEARCH
Rooted in research into Antarctic deep-sea microorganisms.
The Antarctic deep-sea environment raises questions about how microorganisms adapt. This research background is the starting point for Ollantein® and its development toward ingredient applications.
INGREDIENT IDENTITY
A clear reference for the ingredient’s names.
The ingredient brand, the trade name in the assignment letter and the INCI names identify the ingredient for different purposes.

ZEAXANTHIN
Understanding Ollantein® and zeaxanthin.
Ollantein® contains zeaxanthin and is not equivalent to purified zeaxanthin. Application discussions should consider the branded ingredient’s composition, INCI identity and relevant technical information together.
Read the research in its material context.
The 2016 publication studied microbial zeaxanthin using chemical assays and cell-based experiments. It provides research background; evaluating an Ollantein® application also requires the specific ingredient and formulation conditions under consideration.
APPLICATION PATHWAYS
Evaluate different product pathways from the ingredient information.
When a research-derived ingredient enters different product categories, its composition, specification, safety, formulation conditions and local regulations must each be considered.
Skincare & personal care
Discuss serums, creams, masks and other personal-care applications against the INCI identity, formulation conditions and product positioning.
02Nutraceutical applications
Ollantein® and related ingredients may also be evaluated for nutraceutical development against the product concept, ingredient specification, safety information and market regulations.
03Ingredient & research collaboration
Discuss ingredient information, test direction, supply conditions or collaborative research concepts.
These are application pathways, not claims of product efficacy or regulatory approval. Development remains subject to ingredient specification, formulation, use level and local regulatory review.
