Applications of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Spent Culture Supernatant in Cosmetic Antioxidation, Whitening and Moisture Retention Applications

Abstract

This study was aimed at investigating the antioxidant, whitening, and moisture-retention properties of Lactobacillus rhamnosus spent culture supernatant (Lr-SCS) in cosmetic applications. Results reveal that Lr-SCS effectively and gradually scavenges 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl as well as 2,2-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical cations, and increases reducing power in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, Lr-SCS can also suppress tyrosinase activity in vitro and effectively promote moisture retention. Heat treatment at 100 °C for 30 min does not influence the functions of Lr-SCS. We conclude that Lr-SCS can be used effectively in skin care cosmetics.

Partially Purified Exopolysaccharide from Lactobacillus plantarum YML009 with Total Phenolic Content, Antioxidant and Free Radical Scavenging Efficacy

“…In addition, EPS-producing Lactobacillus plantarum C88 isolated from Chinese fermented food was found to display free radical scavenging ability which may involve scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), up-regulation of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant activities, and inhibition of lipid peroxidation. 23 Similarly strong and concentration-dependent antioxidant activities of LAB derived EPS have been reported in various antioxidant models in vitro 8,24 Zhang et al 25 also reported the strong antioxidant activity of pure EPS isolated from Lactobacillus plantarum C88. While in the presented research work, we utilized partially purified EPS which was extracted by using industrial MRS supplemented with glucose with lost cost production efficacy and showed efficient antioxidant effect.…”
