Preferred Label : Beta-glucan/Alginate/Hyaluronic Acid/Squalene/Avocado Oil-containing Emulsion;
NCIt definition : A topical emulsion containing beta-glucan (5%), alginate, hyaluronic acid, squalene
and avocado oil, with cutaneous protective activity. Upon topical application of beta-glucan/alginate/hyaluronic
acid/squalene/avocado oil-containing emulsion, the naturally-occurring polysaccharide
beta-glucan acts as an immunomodulator by activating the innate immune response, in
particular through the activation of macrophages and migration of neutrophils. Alginate
acts as a moisturizer and supports skin healing. Hyaluronic acid, squalene and avocado
oil provide barrier protection, help maintain skin integrity and are natural emollients
and moisturizers. This emulsion may accelerate wound healing and may prevent radiation-induced
dermatitis.;
