“…As forage for livestock, whole-crop green oats may be grazed, cut-and-carried, ensiled or made into hay for later use (Webster & Wood, 2011). Colloidal oatmeal obtained from whole oats is used in skincare products to help relieve various skin conditions like dry skin, sunburn, and skin irritation (Mahmood et al, 2013). …”

Two oat varieties (CDC Dancer and Lamont) were grown in fields. Plants were harvested at three key stages: seedling (Forage 1), mid-season (Forage 2), and full grain maturity. The mature plants were separated into stover (Forage 3) and Grain. There were differential changes among measured attributes during growth. From seeds to Forage 1, crude protein (CP) and ash contents increased several fold, beta-glucan decreased, starch disappeared, and oil content remained unchanged for both oat varieties examined. As plants grew, CP, ash, oil and beta-glucan decreased, but other carbohydrates increased significantly. The CP content in Forage 1 was 5-fold higher than Forage 3 and 2-fold higher than Grain. Most macro and micro-minerals in forage followed the same changing pattern as ash. Amino acid composition of forage differed significantly from that of Grain. When subjected to aqueous media with a wide range of pH, forage harvested at each stage as well as grain all had their unique protein extractability curves. For forage, the peak value (the maximum extraction) decreased with maturity. Yet, as observed for both varieties, Forage 1 had a peak value half of that from Grain. In conclusion, based on the results from this study, nutrient composition in oat forages harvested at an early stage can be comparable or even superior to oat grains but low protein extractability limits oat forage use as an alternative protein source for non-ruminants.

This is a safety assessment of Avena sativa (oat)–derived ingredients. The reported functions of these ingredients in cosmetics include abrasives, antioxidant, skin conditioning agents, absorbents, and bulking agents. The Panel reviewed relevant animal and human data related to these ingredients. Because final product formulations may contain multiple botanicals, each containing the same constituents of concern, formulators are advised to be aware of these constituents and to avoid reaching levels that may lead to sensitization or other toxic effects. The Panel stated that industry should continue to use good manufacturing practices to limit impurities and concluded that all but one of the Avena sativa (oat)–derived ingredients are safe as cosmetic ingredients in the practices of use and concentration described in this safety assessment when formulated to be nonsensitizing; data are insufficient to come to a conclusion of safety for Avena Sativa (Oat) Meristem Cell Extract.
