#Lanolin. The #sheep are effectively "self-cleaning" or at least keep their inner fleece clean & dry in the #rain, largely due to lanolin, a natural waxy grease secreted by sheep's skin that makes their wool #hydrophobic, allowing rain to bead up and roll off rather than soaking into the coat. 🤔

Hate it when you get stuck at the top of a loop-de-loop with someone else and have to make smalltalk until the fire brigade arrives.

#EdwardianFarm - Extracting Lanolin from Sheep's Wool

"In this clip from Edwardian Farm, Ruth Goodman extracts lanolin from sheep's wool.

Lanolin, also called wool wax or wool grease, is a yellow waxy substance secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals. Most lanolin used by humans comes from domestic sheep breeds that are raised specifically for their wool. Lanolin primarily consists of sterol esters. Its waterproofing property aids sheep in shedding water from their coats. Certain breeds of sheep produce large amounts of lanolin.

Lanolin and its many derivatives are used extensively in products designed for the protection, treatment and beautification of human skin.

Crude lanolin constitutes about 5–25% of the weight of freshly shorn wool. The wool from one Merino sheep will produce about 250–300 ml of recoverable wool grease. Lanolin is extracted by washing the wool in hot water with a special wool scouring detergent to remove dirt, wool grease (crude lanolin), suint (sweat salts), and anything else stuck to the wool. The wool grease is continuously removed during this washing process by centrifugal separators, which concentrate it into a wax-like substance melting at approximately 38 °C (100 °F)."

So, #wool and #lanolin (extracted from raw wool) are made without harming #sheep! In fact, a good shearing can help sheep beat the summer heat! I'll be posting about some of the uses of lanolin in future posts.

How to Extract Lanolin from Sheep's Wool

Last Updated: September 16, 2021

"Sheep's wool contains lanolin as a form of protection against nature and insects. Human use of lanolin is as old as the use of wool. Extracting it is easy to do at home and is a great way to get lanolin that is pure, free of industrial chemicals and ready for use in homemade products."

Würde Duschgel gewöhnlich Mett enthalten und der Hackepeter plötzlich durch eine alternative Pflegekomponente ersetzt werden, manche Leute würden es sehr vermissen.

Ja, ich weiß, hier geht's nicht um Hack, sondern um #Lanolin — ein mit Tierleid verbundenes Schafstalg-Produkt und relevantes Allergen. Der meist stark mit Pestiziden belastete Rohstoff muss mehrschrittig chemisch gereinigt werden. Die Produktion belastet #Umwelt und #Klima. Also auch nicht besser als Mett. #goVegan
