Barrier Reinforcement & Microbiome-Compatible Resilience
Designed for urban-exposed and aging-sensitive tissues
ViroBiome™ CERA is a patented lipophilic concentrate derived from Brassica napus (rapeseed meal) through controlled extraction.
Patent EP22194963 – Plant-Based Ceramides for Barrier Reinforcement and Microbiome Preservation
It delivers a synergistic complex of:
• plant-derived ceramides and fatty amides (C8–C24)
• natural tocopherols
• antioxidant polyphenols
CERA functions as the lipid reconstruction module of the ViroBiome™ platform.
It is not positioned as a pharmaceutical active.
Particulate pollution and chronic oxidative stress contribute to epidermal lipid disorganization.
Age-related ceramide depletion and intercellular lipid thinning increase barrier fragility and instability.
CERA addresses this structural lipid depletion.
Plant-derived ceramides contribute to:
• restoration of intercellular lipid cohesion
• support of barrier function
• improved hydration retention
• stabilization of the microbiome interface
These elements support a barrier-resilience positioning.
Natural tocopherols and polyphenols contribute to:
• modulation of oxidative stress markers
• support against environmental aggressors
Controlled in vitro observations indicate modulation of selected cutaneous lipid-related pathways.
These findings suggest localized support of barrier physiology.
They do not constitute systemic or metabolic claims.
