Lanolin is also known as Anhydrous Wool Fat
Adeps lanae (Wool fat / Sheep fat) info view buy
Wool fat, or anhydrous lanolin, is a purified cholesterol fat obtained
from the wool of the sheep, Ovis aries, Linn. (Order Ungulata). The natural
grease is extracted from the wool. Wool fat is closely allied to the natural
secretions of the skin.
