Characterization of self-emulsifying macadamia nut oil fermented by Epidermidibacterium keratini mutant EPI-7-i originated from skin flora as a novel cosmetic ingredient.

Abstract excerpt

Microbial bioconversion has emerged as a sustainable strategy to replace petroleum-based surfactants; however, its application in generating self-emulsifying oils for cosmetic formulations remains limited. This study aimed to develop self-emulsifying oils derived from macadamia nut oil (MNO) through microbial lipid remodeling and to evaluate their physicochemical and functional properties. A skin-derived...
