Abstract:Background: Melanogenesis begins with the oxidation of L-tyrosine to L-Dopa by tyrosinase. Inhibition of tyrosinase could be effective in the treatment of complications such as skin lesions, eczema and melasma. Inhibition of tyrosinase could be effective in the treatment of those complications. The aim of this study was to determine inhibitory activity on tyrosinase and antioxidant activity of Astragalus siliquosus Bioss. and Verbascum phoeniceum L. Methods: Methanol extracts of organs of the plants were prepa… Show more
