The opportunity: Rhubarb crowns (roots) are valued in the herbal medicine industry for their anthraquinones and stilbenes. New bioactivity has been identified for skin lightening/whitening, with potential to treat melasma and age spots. We are developing new extracts and testing efficacy and safety.
"Tasty Feedback"
MacTavish:West has a respected track record within the fresh produce industry, qualified and experienced in nutritional science with respect to fresh produce. We were impressed with the quality of scientific input and their ability to respond to deadlines. A recent proposal they put forward showed the best scientific approach to our call and Dr Hazel MacTavish-West's skill set was perfect. The proposal was successfully funded.
