Hydroglycolic extract from inflorescence of Etlingera elatior (Zingiberaceae) (EE) was determined for its whitening and anti-aging potentials by studying its in vitro antioxidant capacity using two different assays, by investigating its in vitro anti-tyroisnase activity against tyrosinase, by demonstrating its in vitro anti-aging effect against collagenase, and by evaluating its in vivo skin wh...

the present study was designed to study the preventive effect of hydroalcoholic extract of ripe pistachio hulls (rph) in the elevated plus maze model of anxiety. one hundred twenty female wistar rats in their estrous cycle were divided into 15 groups of 8 each and received various concentrations of hydroalcoholic extract of rph except the control groups. elevated plus maze was used to measure t...

Ethnopharmacological Relevance In this study, we investigated the effects of Tribulus terrestris fruit (Leguminosae, Tribuli Fructus, TF) extract on oxazolone-induced atopic dermatitis in mice. Materials and Methods TF extract was prepared with 30% ethanol as solvent. The 1% TF extract with or without 0.1% HC was applied to the back skin daily for 24 days.

The leaves of Carapa guianensis have been used to treat ulcers, skin parasites, and skin problems. The ethanolic extract of C. guianensis leaf was evaluated for its antibacterial and wound healing activity using excision, incision and dead space wound models in rats. The animals were randomly divided into two groups (n = 6) in all the models. In the excision wound model test group animals were ...

The present study was carried out to determine the effects of the seed skin extract of A. hypogaea along with active ingredient pure Resveratrol on the isolated dorsal skin melanophores of the toad Bufo melanostictus.The skin melanophores of the B. melanostictus, were assayed using the mean melanophore size index and their responses were recorded in the presence of various concentrations of the...

INTRODUCTION Solar ultraviolet exposure is the main cause of skin damage by initiation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to skin collagen imperfection and eventually skin roughness. This can be reduced by proper revitalization of skin enhancing younger and healthier appearance. AIM To evaluate the skin facial revitalization effect of a cream formulation containing the Moringa oleifera ...

During the chronological ageing process epidermal skin stem cells become less effective, meaning that the renewing and repairing activity of the epidermis is reduced. Moreover, fewer elastic fibres are synthesised, thereby inducing a progressive loss of skin elasticity. The standardised, COSMOS certified Cyanidium caldarium red algae extract, unique in its capability to produce gamma aminobutyr...
