Antimicrobial microbiome modulation agents: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Bacterial metabolic activity produces malodorous compounds that degrade product quality and consumer acceptance. These compositions utilize specific microorganism strains to biochemically suppress odor-forming pathways.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Antimicrobial microbiome modulation agents?

Microbial induced skin degradation

(13)evidences

Imbalances in skin microflora lead to inflammation and barrier dysfunction. Restoring microbial equilibrium prevents dermatological conditions and aesthetic degradation.

Microbial dysbiosis and virulence

(7)evidences

Imbalances in the cutaneous microbial ecosystem lead to inflammatory conditions and compromised barrier function. Restoring microbial equilibrium prevents dermatological pathologies and maintains skin health.

Microplastic pollution from cosmetic additives

(5)evidences

Weakening of the extracellular matrix and mucous membranes leads to aesthetic and functional degradation. Restoring this structural framework prevents tissue sagging and environmental vulnerability.
