Iran-Made No-Chemical Herbal Sunscreen Cream Proper for Pregnant Women
‘Pars Hayan’ company developed the two products which are oxide nanoparticle-containing herbal sunscreen creams with no chemical adsorbents.
No harmful side-effects have been observed in pregnant women and children who have used the creams.
The inclusion of oxide nanoparticles in the sunscreens has led to higher protection against harmful sun rays.
The creams can be used for sensitive skins and pregnant women.
Earlier this year, a technological company in Iran had also started using nanomaterials in producing anti-pathogen ointment and also creams to reduce the appearance of pimples on the body.
According to a report by Iran’s Nano Development Headquarters, Ebrahim Akbarzadeh, the managing director of a technology company and a professor of Khajeh Nasir Toosi University of Technology (KNTU) said that his company has received a nanoscale certificate for gold, silver and iron nanoparticles, adding, “These nanomaterials are sold to various companies for use in their products.”
“In addition to the production of these nanomaterials, we tried to make products ourselves. Considering the positive effect of gold nanoparticles in production of collagen for skin rejuvenation, we have developed a formulation for the production of a cream, which is currently in the process of receiving licenses from the Food and Drug Organization,” he added.
“We also used silver nanoparticles to formulate creams with anti-pathogen properties and reducing pimples on the body,” Akhbarzadeh went on to say.
