"Biochemist turns blemishes into business - Former Norwood dairy site will house skin-care company"
NORWOOD - In some measure, Dr. Piotr Chomczynski feels his latest scientific venture is his way of making up for lost time.
The 65-year-old native of Poland spent much of his scientific career living under a Communist regime. He immigrated to the United States in 1986 to accept a position at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine.
A biochemist, Chomczynski (pronounced Home-CHIN-ski) has earned international acclaim for his work in genetic research. He developed a simpler, less-expensive method of extracting RNA from cells, making it possible for more scientists to conduct genetic research into diseases.
But his search for an ointment to reduce redness and blemishes from rosacea, a skin condition that he suffers from, propelled him into a new field - skin care.
Dr. Chomczynski examined compounds in mint leaf because of its long history of safe and effective use in cosmetics and consumer products. He discovered that cyclohexanediols (Noredol®), derivatives of mint leaf compounds, are especially safe and effective in cosmetics. Noredol is non-comedogenic, reduces visible redness and helps to maintain healthy skin.
