Cambridge Commodities works with KSL to precisely measure the antioxidant capacity of ingredients as a first step in the creation of bespoke blends with proven antioxidant effectiveness. Knight Scientific knows about antioxidants. Its scientists have developed unique and precise methods for determining the relative antioxidant properties of a host of substances used in cosmetics formulations. KSL can help you to optimise your formulations in terms of their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity and help you to justify your marketing claims; or, if you have the facilities and the expertise, KSL will provide the kits for you to do this essential work yourself.
