(It is identified as broalg092019rep in the pdf document). At the April 2019 meeting, the Panel concluded that 32 of the 82 brown algae-derived ingredients are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration described in the safety assessment. The Panel came to this conclusion by assessing the systemic toxicity potential (either in repeated dose studies or GRAS status/use in food) and sensitization data of the ingredients; both types of data were needed for a conclusion of safety to be reached. As for those ingredients that are formulated differently, but are derived from the same genus and species, and would therefore are expected to be similar in composition (ex. Laminaria Digitata Extract and Laminaria Digitata Powder), the Panel confirmed that if there are sufficient data to support the safety of one of these ingredients, all related ingredients of the same genus and species would be considered safe. The Panel concluded that the data are insufficient to determine the safety of the remaining 50 ingredients under the intended conditions of use in cosmetic formulations. As an alternative method for determining safety, the Panel suggested that representative data for each genus (rather than both genus and species), if submitted, may be used to formulate decisions regarding other ingredients of the same genus. Therefore, the Panel requested data regarding the possible constituents of concern of these brown-algae derived ingredients (e.g., specific terpenoids and flavonoids, and concentrations of such). A table has been provided presenting each ingredient, as well as a notation of the presence or absence of systemic toxicity data (repeated dose studies or use in food/as a GRAS substance) and sensitization data. This table can be found in the packet as broalg092019data1. An alphabetized version of this list has also been included (broalg092019data2). Comments provided by the Council on the Draft Final Report prepared for the April meeting and on the Revised Tentative Report that was issued following the April meeting have been addressed (broalg092019pcpc1 & broalg092019pcpc2). In addition, the flow chart (broalg092019flow), data profile (broalg092019prof), 2019 VCRP data (broalg092019FDA), minutes (broalg092019min), history (broalg092109hist), and search strategy (broalg092019strat), have been included in this packet. The Panel should carefully consider the Abstract, Discussion, and Conclusion presented in this report. If these are satisfactory, the Panel should issue a Final Report. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 1620 L St NW, Suite 1200, Washington, DC 20036 (Main) 202-331-0651 (Fax) 202-331-0088 (Email) [email protected] (Website) www.cir-safety.org Distributed for Comment Only -- Do Not Cite or Quote SAFETY ASSESSMENT FLOW CHART INGREDIENT/FAMILY _Brown Algae-derived ingredients ______________________________ MEETING ___September 2019___________________________________________________________ Public Comment CIR Expert Panel Report Status Priority List INGREDIENT PRIORITY LIST SLR July 26, 2018 DRAFT REPORT Sept 2018 Draft Report 60 day public comment period Table Table IDA TR IDA Notice IDA DRAFT TENTATIVE REPORT Draft TR Dec 2018 Table Table Tentative Report Issue TR Jan 9, 2019; May 16, 2019 Draft FR DRAFT FINAL REPORT Apr 2019; Sept 2019 60 day Public comment period Table Table Different Conclusion Issue PUBLISH Final Report FR Distributed for Comment Only -- Do Not Cite or Quote History of Brown Algae August 2018: SLR announced for public comment September 2018: draft report reviewed by Panel; the Panel issued an IDA; the Panel requested the following data: • Composition and organic constituent data for each of these Brown Algae-derived cosmetic ingredients • 28-Day dermal toxicity data for those ingredients that are not GRAS • Sensitization data at relevant use concentrations for all ingredients (e.g., Macrocystis Pyrifera (Kelp) Extract at 36.4%) • Genotoxicity data for those ingredients that are not GRAS Following the September 2018 meeting, information regarding manufacturing, composition, genotoxicity, sensitization, skin irritation, and ocular irritation regarding several brown algae ingredients were received.

As per the WHO, 80% of the total people principally those of developing countries depend on plant- inferred medicines for social insurance. The indicated efficacies of seaweed inferred phytochemicals are demonstrating incredible potential in obesity, T2DM, metabolic syndrome, CVD, IBD, sexual dysfunction and a few cancers. Hence, WHO, UN-FAO, UNICEF and governments have indicated a developing enthusiasm for these offbeat nourishments with wellbeing advancing impacts. Edible marine macro-algae (seaweed) are of intrigue in view of their incentive in nutrition and medicine. Seaweeds contain a few bioactive substances like polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, polyphenols, and pigments, all of which may have useful wellbeing properties. People devour seaweed as nourishment in different structures: crude as salad and vegetable, pickle with sauce or with vinegar, relish or improved jams and furthermore cooked for vegetable soup. By cultivating seaweed, coastal people are getting an alternative livelihood just as propelling their lives. In 2005, world seaweed generation totaled 14.7 million tons which has dramatically increased (30.4 million tons) in 2015.

  • Biologically Active Compounds in Seaweed Extracts Useful in Animal Diet
    20 The Open Conference Proceedings Journal, 2012, 3, (Suppl 1-M4) 20-28 Open Access Biologically Active Compounds in Seaweed Extracts - the Prospects for the Application Katarzyna Chojnacka*, Agnieszka Saeid, Zuzanna Witkowska and Łukasz Tuhy Institute of Inorganic Technology and Mineral Fertilizers, Wroclaw University of Technology ul. Smoluchowskiego 25, 50-372 Wroclaw, Poland Abstract: The paper covers the latest developments in research on the utilitarian properties of algal extracts. Their appli- cation as the components of pharmaceuticals, feeds for animals and fertilizers was discussed. The classes of various bio- logically active compounds were characterized in terms of their role and the mechanism of action in an organism of hu- man, animal and plant. Recently, many papers have been published which discuss the methods of manufacture and the composition of algal ex- tracts. The general conclusion is that the composition of extracts strongly depends on the raw material (geographical loca- tion of harvested algae and algal species) as well as on the extraction method. The biologically active compounds which are transferred from the biomass of algae to the liquid phase include polysaccharides, proteins, polyunsaturated fatty ac- ids, pigments, polyphenols, minerals, plant growth hormones and other. They have well documented beneficial effect on humans, animals and plants, mainly by protection of an organism from biotic and abiotic stress (antibacterial activity, scavenging of free radicals, host defense activity etc.) and can be valuable components of pharmaceuticals, feed additives and fertilizers. Keywords: Algal extracts, feed additives, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, biologically active compounds. 1. INTRODUCTION was paid to biologically active compounds, useful as the components of pharmaceuticals, feeds and fertilizers.

Abstract Background and objectives: Sargassum angustifolium is a brown alga in southwestern coastline of Persian Gulf. Regarding the presence of various bioactive compounds and evidence of antihypertensive effects in other species of Sargassum, we evaluated the effect of S. angustifolium ethanol extract in CdCl2-induced hypertension in Wistar rats. Methods: Alga extract was prepared by maceration method using 70% ethanol and assessed for total phenolics and salt content. CdCl2 (1.5 mg/kg/day) was administered intraperitoneally to the rats for two weeks. Treatment groups received S. angustifolium extract (20, 40 and 80 mg/kg) or nifedipine (10 mg/kg) orally and simultaneously were given CdCl2 for two weeks. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate were measured using tail-cuff method. Total antioxidant capacity, urea, creatinine, electrolytes including sodium, potassium, calcium and chloride were estimated in blood samples. The weight and histopathology of kidney tissues were also evaluated. Results: The content of total phenolic as gallic acid equivalent and the salt as NaCl was 67.42 ± 9.5 mg/g and 6.9 g/100 g in dried ethanol extract, respectively.

    Factors structuring Fucus communities at open and complex coastlines in the Baltic Sea Martin Isæus Department of Botany, Stockholm University 2004 © Martin Isæus ISBN 91-7265-846-0 Print Center, Frescati Stockholm 2004 Front page photo by Martin Isæus. Sketched illustrations by Meta Isæus-Berlin. 2 Doctoral dissertation 2004 Martin Isæus Department of Botany Stockholm University SE-106 91 Stockholm Sweden Abstract This thesis deals with physical factors and biological interactions affecting the distribution of two fucoid species, Fucus vesiculosus and F. serratus, in the Baltic Sea. Studies have been carried out in two quite different environments: an archipelago, and an open rocky coast. The archipelago has an extremely long coastline with a heterogeneous submerged landscape of different substrate types, slopes, water qualities, and degrees of wave exposure. The factors influencing F. vesiculosus distribution, morphology and epiphyte composition were studied in the Stockholm archipelago using field surveys and spatial modelling in Geographic information systems (GIS). A GIS-method to estimate wave exposure was developed and validated by comparing the result to an index based on vertical zonation of lichens. Wave exposure was considered an important factor for predicting the distribution of F. vesiculosus by its ability to clean hard surfaces from silt, and a predictive model was constructed based on the information of wave exposure and slope of the shore. It is suggested that the lower distribution boundary of attached F. vesiculosus is set by sediment in sheltered parts of the archipelago, and by light availability in highly wave exposed parts. The morphology of F. vesiculosus was studied over a wave exposure gradient, and several characters responded in accordance with earlier studies.
