Verdict
Biosafety concern due to risk of pathogen transmission (viral, prion) if improperly sourced or sterilized; species origin verification required. If human-derived, presents major ethical and regulatory hurdles. If animal-derived, must comply with TSE/BSE certification. Practically obsolete in modern cosmetics, replaced by synthetic peptides and growth factors; not recommended for new formulations.
US Note
Not specifically restricted by FDA; however, sourcing from human tissues would trigger FDA tissue-product regulations (21 CFR Part 1271)
