CNN Article About NuGene Working With PCR

NuGene International, Inc. (“NuGene”) (OTCQB: NUGN), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of advanced skin and hair care lines utilizing adipose derived human stem cells and stem cell media, has announced the findings of an independent study to evaluate the anti-aging efficacy of NuGene’s Universal Cream compared to untreated skin.

The Universal Cream active site showed a statistically significant improvement from baseline as early as 4 weeks into treatment in all objective and subjective assessments. The conclusion of the study revealed that Universal Cream applied site had a 45.64% reduction of fine lines and wrinkles (expert visual assessment) and 16.32% improvement in the moisture level (corneometer) after eight weeks of treatment.

“It is important as we move forward that we provide our partners and customers with objective third party studies on our products,” stated Dr. M. Saeed Kharazmi, NuGene’s Chairman. “While we have received an abundance of client and professional testimonials, we believe that supporting our claims with independent research is one of the factors that set us apart from our competitors.”

The single-blinded, bi-lateral facial site study on 30 healthy male and female subjects over 35 years old with aged skin was performed to evaluate the anti-aging efficacy of Nugene’s Universal Cream over an eight week period.

The study was conducted over an 8-week treatment period with assessments at the beginning of the study, at week four and at week eight. Twenty-seven subjects completed the study, all of them over 35 years of age and mild to moderate aging of the face. The study was performed at Princeton Consumer Research between March 2, 2015 and May 1st, 2015.

Four measurements were used. A Corneometer® was used to assess skin hydration. A profilometry analysis was performed to examine expression-induced lines (crow’s feet.) Expert visual assessments were performed by the same qualified person throughout the test period. A Visia-CR Capture technology was used to capture images of all subjects’ faces during the assessments. Finally, each subject was provided with a self-perception questionnaire for evaluating the product attributes and to get their opinions on the efficacy of the product.

No adverse reactions were reported during the study. The placebo sites on each subject’s face showed no significant changes during the study. The active treated sites, on the other hand, showed statistically significant changes from baseline following both four and eight week assessments.
