Lost in Extraction: DNA Reveals the Impact of Filtering on Sand Daffodil Extract Traceability
The authentication and traceability of natural raw materials have been a recent focus in several industries. Here, four specific markers in materials derived from
Pancratium maritimum
, also known as sand daffodil or sea lily, are examined using DNA barcoding and metabarcoding. Results reveal the plant DNA, and therefore traceability, is largely degraded before entering cosmetic compositions.
