Formulate Labs presents sr-Honey Bee Defensin-1 in its standard strength. Specifics regarding our advanced suspension carriers, optimal concentrations, and expert formulation insights are comprehensively covered in the evidence brief, ensuring seamless integration and maximized efficacy in your product development.
We ship recombinant sr-Honey Bee Defensin-1 in a stabilizing aqueous suspension at two strengths — standard (0.1%) for typical cosmetic dilution workflows, or a 10X lab concentrate (1%) when you want maximum loading in minimal volume. The suspension helps protect the active during refrigerated storage; reconstitute per TDS before incorporation.*

Every lot is produced to order in our AI-powered robotic factory. Nothing sits on a warehouse shelf going stale - you get a date-of-manufacture-fresh batch every time.
sr-Honey Bee Defensin-1 is our INCI name for this material. No trade or context names are associated with this specific raw material.
Bee defensin-1 (sr-Honey Bee Defensin-1) appears in keratinocyte MMP-9 / re-epithelialization studies and honeybee antimicrobial-peptide literature relevant to cosmetic barrier and microbiome positioning. These are independent, third-party papers we link for formulators evaluating mechanism, tolerability, and published panel data. We did not conduct this research and do not guarantee replication in your finished formula.
