PLANT-BASED AND MILK-DERIVED EXOSOMES

What are Exosomes

Exosomes are nano-particle sized protein released by all cells and facilitate a range of important cellular functions.  Amongst other functions, exosomes have an extraordinary ability to transfer DNA and RNA to other cells, and are often referred to as the ‘transport protein’.  Scientific research into exosomes has increasingly recognized their critical role in intercellular communication for both healthy and diseased cell types.

Plant and milk exosomes, also known as extracellular vesicles (EVs), are small membrane-bound vesicles that are released by cells into the extracellular space. They are similar in structure and function to exosomes found in animals and other organisms. Plant and milk exosomes contain various molecules such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which can be delivered to target cells and tissues to regulate various biological processes.

Pullulo's Mission

Around 33% of all food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted at some point in the agri-food supply chain. Pullulo treats this waste as a resource, transforming it into valuable product that can be customized to address health conditions, consumer allergies, inflammation, dietary needs, skin and hair care, etc.

Plant-based Exosomes

Plant-based exosomes are found to have anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties effective in dietary supplements and as nutritional additives.  Vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, watercress, mustard and cabbage have been found to benefit treatments for inflammation, neuro-protection and obesity.

Milk-derived Exosomes

Milk-derived exosomes have been found to strengthen the cell barrier, promote cell viability, enhance cell proliferation and increase cell activity.  As these exosomes play a promotor role in physiological, neural and immune development, they are particularly well suited to applications in therapeutics.

Data and Statistics

The Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) graph demonstrates how we quantify these tiny particles. By shining a laser through the sample, NTA tracks particle movement, allowing scientists to precisely measure their size and concentration. This ensures that each formulation is optimized for the best results, enhancing the effectiveness of your cosmetic products. Products that have exosomes usually contain particles in the 30-200nm range.

Benefits of Plant-based and Milk-derived Exosomes

Milk-derived Exosomes

Milk-derived exosomes are explored for their potential in infant nutrition, gut health and as delivery systems for therapeutic agents.


Also being studied for their role in promoting immune system health and mitigating inflammatory conditions.

Plant-based Exosomes

Plant-based exosomes are being researched for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Also being evaluated for their potential in drug delivery systems and as natural alternatives to synthetic additives in various products.

Both Plant-based and Milk-derived Exosomes

Milk-derived and plant-based exosome applications in the skin and haircare industry for their nourishing, anti-aging, reparative properties.

Exosomes have emerged as a promising new approach to skin rejuvenation due to their ability to stimulate collagen production, promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
