Allantoin
A colourless, odourless nitrogen compound that many mammals, but not humans, make by oxidising uric acid; also found in comfrey, it is widely used in cosmetics for its moisturising and soothing properties. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.
Did you know?It was isolated in 1800 by the Italian physician Michele Francesco Buniva and the French chemist Louis Nicolas Vauquelin, who believed it came from amniotic fluid; the name comes from the allantois, a membrane of the embryo.
