Formulation
Speckle formulations designed with various sizes and functional ingredients
Unislab provides spicules in four sizes, from short spicules to long spicules, so that you can choose the right spicule for your application. It includes spicules coated with specific functional materials, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, stem cell culture fluid, peptides, CICA, vitamins, PDRN, etc. In addition, it provides spicule capsules containing specific functional ingredients and spicules together. Through this process, various functional ingredients are encapsulated in spicules and provided.
Biodiversity and spicules of sponges by habitat
The morphology of spicules—including their size, shape, and composition—varies significantly across sponge species and serves as a key characteristic for taxonomic identification. Over 90% of sponge species inhabit marine environments, ranging from intertidal zones to deep-sea habitats at depths exceeding 8,800 meters. Approximately 150 species are known to reside in freshwater ecosystems such as lakes and rivers. Adult sponges are sessile organisms, attaching themselves to underwater surfaces like rocks, corals, or sediments. Their widespread distribution across diverse marine environments suggests a high level of ecological adaptability, which directly influences the mechanical properties of their spicules. For example, sponges living in different depths, temperatures, and current conditions may develop spicules with structural traits suited to their specific habitats. The existence of both marine and freshwater sponge species expands the potential sources of spicules, which may differ in chemical composition (e.g., trace minerals) and physical characteristics. These differences are shaped by the distinct mineral profiles of their respective environments and can affect how spicules interact with human skin when used in cosmetic applications.
