TeraStat N is the first natural preservation system to use the high performing biostatic agent CGE. CGE is an important biolipid (alkyl glyceryl ether) originally found in human breast milk and in marine animals (e.g. shark liver oil). It is more stable and effective than glyceryl esters. Historically the ester Glyceryl Caprylate (GMCY) has been one of the few options for natural cosmetic preservation. But GMCY is unstable, degrades, and gives variable performance in cosmetic formulations. CGE avoids these problems. The combination of CGE, CHA, and PDO is the most effective, stable, and gentlest natural preservative yet.
