NewBind Transglutaminase for cosmetic applications

Transglutaminase is increasingly used in cosmetic formulations as an enzyme for protein cross-linking.

With our NewBind product range, we now offer targeted solutions for use in personal care and cosmetic applications.

Transglutaminase (EC 2.3.2.13) is an enzyme that catalyzes covalent bonds between amino acids such as lysine and glutamine in proteins.

This enzymatic cross-linking creates stable, three-dimensional protein structures that can be used specifically to modify functional properties in formulations.

Transglutaminase is particularly suitable for formulations containing proteins such as keratin, collagen, or plant proteins.

Typical areas of application include:

• Skin care formulations
  Structuring and stabilizing protein-based systems
• Hair care products
  Modification of keratin-containing formulations
• Emulsions and gels
  Adjustment of texture and viscosity
• Protein-based active ingredient systems
  Stabilization and integration into complex formulations

• Targeted protein cross-linking via an enzymatic system
• Improved formulation stability
• Control of texture and rheology
• Alternative to purely chemical cross-linkers
• Broad range of applications in personal care products

NewBind is developed and produced in Germany under controlled conditions.

We offer:

• Different activity levels and formulations
• Customized solutions for specific applications
• Technical support for formulation development

The use of transglutaminase in cosmetic products must be assessed depending on the specific formulation and target market.

We support our customers with technical data and application-specific advice.
