Welcome to our BIOCUTIS® line of healing natural skin care products. They are powered by a naturally occurring immune serum with skin regeneration properties.

And are formulated with other ingredients that act in synergy with the serum to strengthen fragile skin so that you may avoid and leave behind Eczema, Dermatitis, Psoriasis, Rosacea, Itchy Rashes, Ultra Sensitive and Dry Skin

We stumbled upon, and are compelled to share with you the discovery of this natural immune serum with skin regeneration properties that restores balance and strength to both the outermost layer of the epidermis AND to the dermis (cutis).

Its activity thickens the skin and makes it look firmer and plumper. Cell turnover is sped up and the skin also produces more hyaluronic acid, a naturally-occurring hydrator that helps the skin to look more moisturized.

This is crucial because when the outer layer of the skin is disrupted for long periods of time, it becomes “disorganized and weak” and easily prone to rashes. A telltale sign of an impaired skin barrier is any kind of redness, meaning the outer layer (stratum corneum) is fragile and permeable.

Pigmentation and uneven skin tone can also be a sign of a weakened epidermis, as melanocytes (cells that produce melanin) go haywire, depositing melanin in uneven patches across the skin. Our products nurse the stratum corneum back to optimal health, while also encouraging natural cellular turnover. They aim at the recovery of the skin barrier while positively influencing the self-regeneration of the skin.

The naturally occurring immune serum is stabilized and embedded by us in microscopic vessels and then into a cream for use on the skin.

In this way it penetrates in the dermis and powers the line of natural skin care products that we formulated to provide a long term solution to the torment of dry, scaly rashes, raw bleeding sores; and to rough, cracked and painful skin that is often accompanied by a continuous itch.

This immune serum supports the role of our skin as an active organ in our defense and immunity, strengthens the skin, and is a sophisticated and very effective topical solution for all types of skin concerns.

Why Some of the Most Prestigious Dermatologists In the World Say It Works?

Skin Regeneration Properties of Mollusk Secretion - 2008. As published by the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center of New York.

Click here for the 2012 scientific research published by the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York: A secretion of the mollusc Cryptomphalus aspersa (SCA) promotes proliferation, migration and survival of keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts in vitro".

Scientific screening has unveiled the cellular and molecular effects that lead to skin regeneration when the serum collected from land snails of the species Crystomphalus Aspersa or Helix Aspersa, also known as the humble brown garden snail, (and without inflicting any harm to these surprising little creatures), is applied to human skin.

Scientific breakdown of the immune serum has discovered it is a powerful antioxidant substance also packed with enzymes, proteins, peptides, co-enzymes, trace elements (Copper, Zinc, Iron & Calcium) and complex sulfated acidic glyco (sugar) molecules that scientists classify as: glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans.

A Sweet = Glyco, Biological Ingredient That Supports Your Immune System

The new "sweet science" of glycobiology (1988) has shed light on the multiple functions of the complex serum made mainly of glyco-conjugated molecules that shield the body of the Helix Aspersa Müller snail from adverse external influences and works for human skin as well.

Our immune system protects us from infections, diseases and damage by other environmental factors.

This defense system is based on the provision of macrophages, a type of cell (phagocytes) capable of eliminating foreign bodies such as microorganisms, dead tissue cells and also tumor cells (phago-cytosis). Macrophages are found in all tissues of the human body. In the skin these are called Langerhans cells.

The efficiency of the immune system can be impaired by a number of factors. Natural aging processes and environmentally induced accelerated aging, for example due to UV light, as well as physical and psychological stress have been shown to have an adverse effect on the immune system.

Helix Aspersa serum has pronounced immune-stimulating properties. This is based on activation of the macrophages and Langerhans cells, counteracting age and environmentally induced immune deficiencies. Helix Aspersa glycoconjugates have proved to be a non-specific stimulator of immuno-competent cells.

The activation of macrophages or Langerhans cells by means of the glycoconjugates intensifies the formation of cytokines. Cytokines are hormone-like substances which activate additional functions of the immune system and support, for example, wound healing.

As a result, topical application in a suitable form to stressed or damaged skin brings about both an accelerated regeneration and a so-called repair effect. This is also the basis of the anti-irritating properties of our sin healing products.

2. BIOSKINBALM also includes ROSEHIP OIL, a biological source of both Vitamin A and essential fatty acids.

3. Plus HYALURONIC ACID, a deep moisturizer.

Hyaluronic Acid is found naturally in the snail serum but we add an extra amount into BIOSKINBALM because of its ability to hold a thousand times its weight in water and thus deeply enhance the moisturizing results of the balm.

4. We also add a carboHYDRATE moisture retainer called PENTAVITIN that rescues, repairs and relieves sensitive, irritated, dry skin.

Pentavitin™ is a patented, exceptionally efficient moisture retainer and controller. Its structure is very similar to that of the organic carbohydrate fraction located in the stratum corneum of the human skin. Pentavitin™ is a highly concentrated liquid solution and the outcome of a delicately designed method of isomerization of the plant by-product, D-glucose. Because of its biological construction and make up, Pentavitin™ acts as a highly efficient moisture controller resulting in long lasting water retention.

Pentavitin™ obtains its moisture-retention abilities by binding itself to free amino groups of lysine found in the keratin of the stratum corneum. This special kind of binding results in a unique substantivity and compatibility with the skin. Once bound to the skin's surface Pentavitin™ can’t be washed off easily.

Pentavitin™ is effective for shielding dry skin from classical conditions such as brittleness, dryness and roughness.

BIOSKINBALM is a safe and a gentle staple for dry skin. Also an alternative to the awful cortisone & steroid ingredients found in most pharmaceutical eczema and psoriasis medications.

These steroid-based therapies often come with their own collection of nasty secondary effects (click to find out more about topical steroid side effects), however BIOSKINBALM is entirely natural and organic and helps your skin heal itself.

The use of hydrocortisone or corticosteroids may ablate the symptoms of a distressing skin condition but not tackle the underlying reason for the skin reaction that underlies that condition. [Burden & Beck] Indeed, extended use of high levels of hydrocortisone can drastically alter the ratio between dermis, epidermis and stratum corneum and compromise the integrity of the skin to leave it with a thin topical fragility and visual transparency.

The answer to this apparent conundrum may lie within the chemistry, since though the structure bears an uncanny resemblance to the naturally occurring sterol materials in human skin, the exact chemical configuration of hydrogen and carbon atoms is never found in nature. The skin may be “fooled” into reacting to the drug, because the synthetic steroid has a skeletal configuration or key that fits the lock.

Burden, A.D.; Beck, M.H.: Contact hypersensitivity to topical corticosteroids. In: Br J Dermatol (1992 Nov) 127(5):497-500

BIOSKINBALM is also an alternative to artificial, chemical laden products that are on the market and does not contain any of the toxic or irritating chemical ingredients commonly found in conventional skin ‘care’ and even in specialty ‘health’ skin care products.

BIOSKINBALM is not a pharmaceutical, drug or medicine.

The complete ingredient list is:

  • (1) Water;
  • (2) RoseHip Seed Oil;
  • (3) Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates, the strongest biological ingredient known for healthy skin, produced by a living being to function as a biological antibiotic, an inflammatory-regulator, an antioxidant, a moisturizer & a stimulator of scar-less healing & skin regeneration;
  • (4) Olive Oil emulsifier, surfactant, and squalene by-products that refill the lipid content of the skin obstructing the assimilation of allergens and toxins and acting as antioxidants;
  • (5) Seaweed Extract, a rich supply of oligo-elements that are needed for cellular development;
  • (6) Hyaluronic Acid moisturizer, a biologically occurring skin substance with the ability of retaining more water than any other known hydrator;
  • (7) Chamomile for inflammatory skin conditions. It is good for sensitive skin care, and helpful in dermatitis;
  • (8) Pentavitin™, Saccharide Isomerate, a carbohydrate complex identical to that present in the stratum corneum of the skin that holds water by strongly binding water to keratin;
  • (9) A preservative made only with the following botanical extracts in minute quantities: Origanum Vulgare (Oregano) Leaf Extract (and) Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) Extract (and) Cinnamomum Zeylanicum (Cinnamon) Bark Extract (and) Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract (and) Lavandula Augustifolia (Lavender) Flower Extract (and) Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Extract (and) Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Leaf Extract (and) Hydrastis Canadensis (Golden Seal) Root Extract (and) Olea Europaea (Olive) Leaf Extract; and nothing else.

An Immune Serum with Skin Regeneration Properties

(Species # 401) Snail Kite : The Obession ContinuesThe serum secreted by Helix Aspersa Müller snails is a skin adaptogen.

They secrete it to protect their delicate unprotected skin from the sun’s rays, and to maintain skin moist and hydrated.

This restorative secretion not only shields the snail’s skin from harm, it also helps the snail rebuild its own shell if it is ever cracked or fractured. It also replaces and recovers the functional capacity of its tentacles, eyes and mouth when it survives after being bitten by birds (snailkites).

The secretion also has antimicrobial peptides that help protect the snail from bacteria. As a result, snails never suffer from skin infections – can you imagine that?

The immune serum restores healthy skin, safely and naturally!

Because of the extraordinary resemblance between the structure of human and snail tissues, snail serum is 100% consistent with human skin. That means that there are no adverse reactions, no itching, no redness – BIOSKINBALM is completely safe to use, even on infants. This compatibility also means that the advantages the snail gains from its own serum can now be experienced by YOU.

Helps to Revitalize The Skin: Increases The Skin's Ability to Adapt Naturally to Environmental Distress

Adaptogen is a term given to describe those gifts found in Nature that have the capability to produce proper adaptations in our body, at a cellular level, and act by helping us protect the body from several types of stresses while promoting the body’s own self-regeneration process.

BIOSKINBALM Helps Skin Endure the Different Everyday Stresses

Having to confront the harsh everyday contaminants isn’t easy on your skin nor can it be achieved by any one specific action.

BIOSKINBALM helps you deal with these stress agents by offering a wide variety of biochemical factors that include a biological immune serum.

Scientific research has found the snail’s serum is made of peptides, enzymes, co-enzymes, proteins, trace elements (Copper, Zinc, Iron & Calcium) and complex sulfated acidic glyco (sugar) molecules, which work together with other biological ingredients incorporated into the balm helping:

● normalize dilation of capillaries that would otherwise induce red blotches on the skin
● stimulate an orderly release of fibrin which shields the delicate inner walls of the blood vessels and promotes unhindered blood flow
● promote the synthesis of new healthy capillaries
● support the synthesis of antibiotic peptides on the skin to kill parasites, microbes, fungi and virus, without creating any microbial resistance
● enhance inter-and-intracellular communication thus controlling the orderly renewal, turnover and regeneration of all the basic components of healthy skin
● control connective tissue breakdown by inhibiting or regulating enzymes
● lessen skin inflammation through the use of antioxidants and enzymatic dissolution of damaged proteins thereby supporting the immune system
● stimulate the production of skin cells and the healing of wounds leaving no deforming scars
● safely reinforce your body’s natural capability to nurse itself back to health
● intensively moisturize and naturally hydrate the skin from within by maintaining water and boosting the capability your body has to synthesize the water holding molecules within the skin matrix, the glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans that give skin elasticity, strength, resilience and the ability to withstand compression and over-stretching

Benefits for Skin of RoseHip Oil

RoseHip Seed Oil is from the seeds of a native wild rose that grows in southern Chile. It has been used for hundreds of years in South America for its extraordinary healing, moisturizing and restorative properties. It aids cell regeneration, boosts levels of collagen and elastin, producing a smoother and firmer skin. It also collaborates to reduce pigmentation, abnormal scars and stretch marks by stimulating healthy skin renewal - it is efficient even on old scars. When applied daily to the skin it shields it from free radical damage, associated with the harmful influences of solar rays, weather and ageing.

Rose Hip oil contains important levels of essential fatty acids: gamma-linolenic acid, oleic, linoleic, and linolenic, which help maintain healthy skin. It functions as an anti-inflammatory and nourishes the skin with lipids that are needed to fortify the external skin barrier and protect the body from the incorporation of allergens and toxins. Rose hip oil is also an organic provider of trans-retinoic acid (a biological promoter of vitamin A) and acts as a keratolityc which eliminates dead cells and speeds-up skin turnover, as do trans-retinoic-acid in medical drugs but without any of their secondary effects.

Rose Hip oil was first investigated in 1983 by a group of scientists from the Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacology at the University of Concepcion in Chile. They tested the oil's effect on the skin’s regeneration process. During the 2-year investigation, the oil was applied to 180 subjects with surgical, injury and post-burn scars, and also to a group suffering from premature aging. It was found that Rose Hip Oil produced an efficient restorative effect on the skin, helping to attenuate scars and wrinkles, avoiding advancement of premature aging, and recovering lost color and tone.

The success of nature is based upon all things being in balance

The immune serum and the plants we use to formulate our skin care products are not single chemical entities and do not give their maximum benefit when the single active molecule is extracted. The effect is not caused by a single instrument but more likely by an orchestra of different biochemicals that work in synergy and in concert.

When you use the balm, you will enjoy a level of skin vitality like with no other product you have ever tried:

BIOCUTIS products protect you from the effects of solar rays, pollution, allergens and microorganisms. The restorative properties found in them will reduce the appearance of dermatitis, Rosacea, actinic keratosis, skin roughness, scars, acne, stretch marks, dry skin, rashes, fine lines, eczema and keloid scarring.

When you apply ONE Biocutis product as a habitual skin care regimen, the healing balm will not only make your skin more beautiful, but it may also help improve your worst skin conditions.

The healing properties found in the snail serum work in conjunction with the best biological ingredients available to recover the lipids in the skin barrier and supply and conserve moisture. This helps to heal skin that has been damaged by time, solar exposure, the elements, scar tissue, aggression from allergens and other contributing factors along with bacterial and viral infections.

BIOCUTIS is the only line of organic skin care products that is NOT a mixture of chemical or pharmaceutical drugs, but rather a line of creams based on a serum found in Nature and produced by a living mollusk with skin very similar to human skin. The serum is expressly created to moisturize, protect, and – here’s the crucial part – regenerate its skin.

For thousands of years people in Asia, Africa and South America have employed extracts from vegetables, frog skin or snail serum to heal wounds, burns and skin infections. Recent advances in medical science have started to unfold the magic of these traditional methods. Findings of biologically active peptides and proteins in snail body and secretions (Kubota Y et al., 1985) in frog skin (Zasloff, 1987) and in vegetables (Broekaert et al., 1995) prove the beneficial effects of these organic treatments. The bioactive peptides are highly efficient against several types of microbes and are therefore named antimicrobial peptides.

Staphylococcus Aureus and other bacteria are present in 90% of eczema cases. Bacteria adheres more quickly to skin that is inflamed, making the eczema outbreak worse because of secretions called super-antigens. These allergy-inducing elements stimulate the immune cells in the skin, causing them to produce secretions that further aggravate inflammation. Controlling bacteria on the skin can help regulate the eczema.

The magic of nature is also a component of our own skin defense system

Mammals are born with antibiotic peptides deployed as a crucial defense against microbial infection (Gallo and Nizet, 2003). Their skin is a defensive shield between internal organs and the external environment. It is exposed daily to thousands of potential pathogens, a host of toxins and physical stress. In order to face these challenges, skin epithelium works as a natural barrier and has an intense defensive role in the verification of microbes as well as in the synthesis of cytokines and defense molecules such as antibiotic peptides. The number of reports demonstrating the presence and upregulation of antibiotic peptides in human skin is growing and demonstrates the importance of these peptides in skin protection and treatment.

The fact that the snail serum contains glycoproteins that eliminates bacteria and also biologically induces the synthesis of endogenous antibiotic peptides that fight infection has been acknowledged for years. Researchers have tried to reproduce its bioactive molecules in the laboratory (through biotechnology). This is an auspicious new territory for research, creating efficient drugs and patenting them, but putting a drug to clinical experimentation is time consuming and costly. It is estimated that it takes $300 million to bring a drug to stores. This cost includes everything from discovery, analysis, production and clinical trials. This process may also take 10 or more years to accomplish.

Found by keen observation and a fair dose of luck

Fortunately, by chance a snail farm in Chile realized that snail handlers had exceptionally soft hands, and any wounds, scrapes or injuries to their hands had healed quickly and without scars. Simultaneously a doctor in Spain had observed that snails produced mucous when exposed to ionizing radiation (X ray and gamma radiation employed for cancer radiotheraphy) and that it shielded them from degenerative effects.

His curiosity guided him to investigate the effects of the substance on human skin, research what was in it and do clinical trials. He confirmed that the substance granted a scar free healing of wounds, cuts, scrapes and recovered the skin’s health after bruising done by cancer radiation therapies. He also discovered that the substance healed the skin even of chemical burns. The invention of a balm and the experience of thousands of people with skin conditions has motivated us to persist in our quest to make this product available to you.

The antibiotic agent of the snail’s serum is a glycoprotein whose molecular weight (MW) is about 160,000. Comp Biochem Physiol C. 1985; 82(2):345-8. It eliminates both gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa), but only in their growing states. Investigations of the morphology of bacteria altered by the glycoprotein in the secretions have demonstrated that it lengthens the bodies of Escherichia coli by 3 to seven times, breaking the surface of Staphylococcus aureus and causing the cytoplamic membranes to cave in.

By blocking the microbial pathway to the blood stream, this biological complex allows your immune system to heal the damage while in an environment similar to that in which a fractured bone heals inside the body, thus evading expensive scar treatments.

Treatment of Skin Irritations & Skin Infections Without the Pitfalls of Most Products

The balm helps to alleviate the symptoms of irritation, acne, dermatitis, rosacea, dryness, and eczema, and prevents infections of the skin without the pitfalls of pharmaceutical antimicrobials or the secondary effects of harsh chemicals commonly employed in topical skin products.

Skin Regeneration.

The biological ingredients found in the balm also help accelerate cell regeneration. They repair lesions caused by sebum excess or blocked pores to the cells lining the sebum canals. They regenerate skin that has been harmed by injuries due to burns, dermabrasion, surgery, laser, scratching, accident, or other causes. They dissolve plugged pores that block sebum outflow and "digest" excessive keratin formations found in actinic keratosis and keratosis pilaris caused by enzymes that decompose them into their amino acid components.

BIOSKINBALM users rave about it

Many happy BIOSKINBALM users are familiar with that hopeless feeling of agonizing over relentless skin conditions.

Thousands of people just like you have written us sharing that they no longer have to bear having dry skin, scars are fading, redness is a thing of the past, breakouts have diminished to almost nothing and that their skin’s texture is improving after consistent use of BIOSKINBALM, as you can read at our testimonials section. Most of our customers attribute BIOSKINBALM the potential to treat a wide scope of skin related conditions and injuries and revitalize the skin. It has helped Octogenarians as well as baby boomers or babies affected by skin problems and rashes.

Apply BIOSKINBALM twice a day to dramatically diminish symptoms and IMPROVE THE TEXTURE AND appearance of skin that is extremely dry or very affected by stress or rosacea. BIOSKINBALM is a complete and balanced intense skin treatment we guarantee will work for you.

Nature's Healing Powers

For thousands of years people all over the world have used extracts from plants, frog skin, snail mucins, and other secretions from animals to promote healing of skin wounds, burns and infectious diseases.

Biochemical analysis of the natural fluid we use in our products shows it contains complex glycoconjugates, molecules made mainly of sulfated sugar or carbohydrate chains (sugar= glyco), globular soluble proteins, uronic acids and trace elements (copper, zinc, calcium and iron).

The major organic (i.e. carbon-containing) components of human cells are proteins, lipids, various carbohydrates and carbohydrate-containing molecules, and the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The carbohydrate-containing molecules can be quite complex; those in which carbohydrates are attached to proteins or lipids are called glycoconjugates.

There are three major classes of glycoconjugates: glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids.

Glyco means "sweet" and refers to monosaccharides, or sugars. The role of carbohydrates (sugars) in energy production has been long understood. However, their additional, crucial role in orchestrating the healthy structure and function of the body is a relatively new discovery that is the subject of a new bourgeoning field of science called the “sweet science of glycobiology ” (1988).

The creation of this word (and the word Glycomics) only in very recent years is a pointer to what might be a new suffix, -omics. It has already appeared in genomics, the study of the genetic make-up of organisms, and proteomics, the study of the way proteins work inside cells, plus several compounds such as toxicogenomics. This new term refers to the study of sugars within organisms.

Why Glycobiology Matters

The glycome is the set of sugars an organism or cell makes. What is slowly becoming clear to biochemists is that these sugars play as vital a role in making the cell work as do the proteins. They combine to form giant molecules such as carbohydrates and cellulose; they are already known to regulate hormones, organize embryonic development, direct the movement of cells and proteins throughout the body, and regulate the immune system.

As of 2012, we are aware of only L’Oréal Research recognizing the importance of the latest discoveries in glycobiology, Yves Saint Laurent launched Forever Youth Liberator, a new facial skincare which contains synthetic versions of 3 glycans to "stimulate the skin’s youth-promoting functions".

This is after 24 years of discoveries in this new field of biology and chemistry. So if you have been with us since we launched the first generation of skin care products made with snail secretions, more than 12 years ago, you may understand our bold claim that the serum that naturally occurs, and even if and because it CANNOT BE PATENTED, should be looked upon as the benchmark by the cosmetic industry.

Or you might smile when you read in January 2012: ‘This sort of science is very exciting and has great potential,’ says Chris Flower, of the Cosmetic Toiletry & Perfumery Association — the voice of the cosmetic, toiletry and perfumery industry in the UK. Read more

Now, there is more to glyco molecules than nourishing the skin with elements that it may begin to lack as we age. The serum secreted by snails is far more complex than the glycomolecules a pharmacist can create in a laboratory and plays a role in supporting the innate immune system of human beings.

Our immune system may need help directly at the site of skin damage for skin repair and to avoid chronic, silent inflammation: inflamm-aging

Our IMMUNE SYSTEM is a complex biological matrix made up of molecules, proteins, cells, and organs that function together to recognize and defend against disease producing bacteria, viruses, fungi, and cells that have undergone malignant transformation.

Your health is dependent on your immune system and its ability to identify and repel your own damaged cells and other invaders.

Our immune system ages with us and its inflammaging responses generate unrepaired cellular damage - the more damage, the earlier you'll likely age... in an unhealthy state up to death.

The cumulative effects of free radical oxidation, physical and psychic stress, heavy metal overload, and vitamin and mineral under nutrition wears it down, increasing our susceptibility to disease.

Mother Nature never anticipated that the immune system she designed for us would be so taxed; here she needs our help.

FORTUNATELY a creature that also lives with its skin exposed nude, as we merry around under the sun, and with skin similar to human skin, a land snail, secretes an immune system support serum that acts at the site of skin damage to regenerate skin and fight pathogens.

The secretion complies with the scientific definition of a serum, as it is a watery substance capable of transferring immunity from a host to another individual.

SERUM: This serum supports the innate immune system of the snail and according to science it is composed of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, enzymes, low molecular weight molecules that act as antioxidants in a way similar to vitamins, high molecular weight molecules that act as oxygen carriers, and oligoelements some of which act as coenzymes.

Biochemical analysis of the complex natural fluid secreted by snails that we use in our products shows it contains complex glycoconjugates, molecules made mainly of sulfated sugar or carbohydrate chains (sugar= glyco), globular soluble proteins, uronic acids and trace elements (like copper, zinc, calcium and iron)

"The Sweet Science" of Glycobiology

Even as doctors and drug companies struggle to interpret and exploit the recent explosion of data on genes and proteins, yet another field of biology is waiting to break out: glycomics or glycobiology. This emerging discipline seeks to do for sugars and carbohydrates what genomics and proteomics have done for genes and proteins: move them into the mainstream of biomedical research and drug discovery.

The creation of this word (and the word Glycomics) only in very recent years is a pointer to what might be a new suffix, -omics. It has already appeared in genomics, the study of the genetic make-up of organisms, and proteomics, the study of the way proteins work inside cells, plus several compounds such as toxicogenomics. This new term refers to the study of sugars within organisms.

The glycome is the set of sugars an organism or cell makes. What is slowly becoming clear to biochemists is that these sugars play as vital a role in making the cell work as do the proteins. They combine to form giant molecules such as carbohydrates and cellulose; they are already known to regulate hormones, organize embryonic development, direct the movement of cells and proteins throughout the body, and regulate the immune system.

In particular, glycobiology analyses the aging process of skin, helping us to understand what causes this and how it can be prevented. It investigates the damage that sugar can do to collagen in the skin which in turn causes loose and sagging skin common in aging skin and the role of glycans in repairing damaged skin.

Glycans are found naturally in the skin and transmit messages to the cells to produce collagen which keeps the skin smooth and supple. As the skin gets older, glycans diminish which makes it harder for the skin to regenerate and this is what causes signs of aging.

Artificial glycans are now being used by the cosmetic industry as ingredients in new skin care products to promote skin regeneration and youth.

The main ingredient in the Biocutis line of products is a complex natural compound that cannot be replicated in even the most sophisticated laboratory on Earth. Because it is a naturally occurring compound and not a man-made substance it cannot be patented. This would only be possible if it were an isolate from a natural substance or a man made ingredient achieved through chemical reactions. Thus, by its very nature no one can claim exclusive rights of use granted by a patent of invention.

United States Patent 6,982,247 - January 2, 2006 - Antimicrobial protein isolated from complex secreted by snails.

This invention relates to compounds with antibiotic activity which are gathered from body fluids of snails, to therapeutic drugs comprising these compounds, and to the use thereof for the preparation of a therapeutic drug for controlling infectious pathogens in humans and animals. The patent specifies that an antimicrobial protein isolated and identified from the yellow mucus of the foot soles of a species of snails can be utilized against a broad range of infectious pathogens.

The antibiotically effective compounds according to the invention can kill bacteria, parasites, viruses and other infectious pathogens upon both external and internal administration. The infectious pathogens against which the compounds are effective are those which cause gastro-intestinal symptoms, those which attack inner organs via the blood, and those which lead to open wounds in the skin.

The antibacterial effectiveness is demonstrarted by bioassays using bacterial isolates freshly isolated from infected and hospitalized patients. An antibacterial-bactericidal effect was established, inter alia, against the Gram-negative species Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and the Gram-positive species Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis.

United States Patent 6028061 (2001). - Inhibition of Angiogenesis by a Glycosaminoglycan isolated from snails.
Assigned to Children's Medical Center Corp (Boston, MA); The University of Iowa Research Foundation. This is for the use of a complex glyco-molecule (acharan sulfate) isolated from the body, and also present in the mucin of the snail, as a drug to inhibit angiogenesis: the development of new blood vessels.

The same inventors are requesting a new patent for the use of the same molecule for the treatment of cancer and inhibiting an increase in the volume or mass of a cancer tumor (2005). U.S. Patent Application 20050075312, April 7, 2005 provides pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of cancer and inhibiting an increase in the volume or mass of a tumor, and methods for the treatment of cancer and inhibiting an increase in the volume or mass of a tumor. The invention is based on the discovery that acharan sulfate demonstrates in vivo anti-tumor activity. As used here, acharan sulfate means a glycosaminoglycan from the giant African snail, Achatina fulica.
