T O P I C R E V I E WFrozenQueenSqualene is one of the major constituents of shark oil with a wide range of applications, from vaccines and cosmetics to use as an industrial lubricant...and several sharks have died as a result.Concerns over endangering sharks have led to alternate methods to extract it from Veggie oils.But an other interesting "source" of this hydrocarbon is the human nose. Nose grease contains high levels of squalene and one application that I've found is to coat the surface of my touchscreen phone so that my finger slides over easily and reduce the scratches. Ofcourse, too much of a good thing and the screen will stop responding.I've been using this for a couple of weeks and find it useful.What do you say?P.s. I don't think our noses are ever gonna be a commercial source, though ------------------Wounds are meant to heal even if they leave scars.- Yours Truly
