“…This effect can be related to many antioxidant substances that have been described in different Cashew apple extracts. Carotenoids from cashew apple by-product represent an interesting source of xanthophylls (19) , antioxidant monomeric phenolics, e.g., quercetin 3-O-galactoside, myricetin, quercetin (20) and anthocyanins (21) .. In previous studies, cashew extract and juice presented pronounced antioxidant activity related to presence of polyphenolic compounds, tannic acid and Vitamin C (11,22) .…”

“…Este efeito pode estar relacionado a muitas substâncias antioxidantes que tem sido descritas em diferentes extratos de Caju. Os carotenoides do subproduto da polpa do caju representaram uma fonte interessante de xantofilas (19) , fenólicos monoméricos antioxidantes: 3-O--galactósido da quercetina, miricetina e quercetina (20) ,e antocianinas (21) são alguns exemplos.Em estudo prévio, o extrato e suco de caju apresentaram actividade antioxidante pronunciada, relacionada com a presença de compostos polifenólicos, ácido tânico e vitamina C (11,22) . A actividade antioxidante das substâncias em formulações tópicas é de grande interesse devido ao uso destas substâncias que podem prevenir o stress oxidativo e, assim, actuar na manutenção da saúde da pele e prevenir o envelhecimento da pele (23) .…”

“…Aside from monomeric phenolics, tannins are the major phenolics of the cashew apple (22). The cashew apple tanins contains high percentages of (-)-epigallocatechin and (-)-epigallocatechin-O-gallate, followed by minor quantities of (-)-epicatechin and (-)-epicatechin-3-Ogallate phenols (26). The tannins, as mentioned, may be responsible for the improvement of sensory properties, as well as, for the pore constriction and sebum regulation, which are important effects for oily skin formulations.…”

“…Além dos fenólicos monoméricos, os taninos são os principais fenólicos da maçã do caju (22) . Os taninos da polpa contêm altas porcentagens de (-) -epigalhocatequina e O-galhato de (-) -epigalhocatequina, seguidas de pequenas quantidades de fenóis de 3-O-galhato de (-) -epicatequina (26) . Os taninos, como mencionado, podem ser responsáveis pela melhoria das propriedades sensoriais, bem como, para a constrição do poro e regulação do sebo, que são efeitos importantes para formulações de pele oleosa.…”

75 Biomedical and Biopharmaceutical Research J o r n a l d e I n v e s t i g a ç ã o B i o m é d i c a e B i o f a r m a c ê u t i c a Anacardium occidentale L. extract in cosmetic formulations: benefits for oily skinCashew apple (Anacardium occidentale L.,) extract (CAE) is rich in tannins, flavonoids, amino acids, anacardic acids and vitamin C, which can provide desirable benefits to oily skin. The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant activity of CAE and the improvement of oily skin after application of a sunscreen containing this extract. The antioxidant activity of CAE was evaluated by chemioluminescence assay. A sunscreen was developed and added (FC), or not (F), with 3.5% of CAE. Transepidermal water loss, stratum corneum water content, sebum content and skin microrelief were evaluated before and after two and four hours of a single application of the F or FC formulations. FC effects on skin were also evaluated after a 28 day-period of twice daily applications on the faces of 12 volunteers. Skin imaging techniques were used to evaluate skin pores and comedones, and sensory analysis was performed. CAE showed antioxidant activity and the FC formulation controlled the sebum secretion after two and four hours. FC reduced the number of skin pores (24%) and did not increase the number of comedones. These results indicate that CAE is an innovative active ingredient from Brazilian biodiversity with antioxidant activity and efficacy to improve oily skin conditions. Keywords:Cashew extract, sunscreen, clinical efficacy, antioxidant activity, cosmetics. ResumoO caju (Annacardium occidentale L, família: Anacardiaceae.) é uma planta nativa da América tropical, e é amplamente cultivada na Ásia e África. Tem grande importância socioeconômica para o Brasil e para diferentes países. O extrato de caju (Anacardium occidentale L.) (CAE) é rico em taninos, flavonoides, aminoácidos, ácidos anacárdicos e vitamina C que podem proporcionar benefícios para a pele oleosa. O objectivo deste estudo foi avaliar a actividade antioxidante do CAE e a melhoradas condições da pele oleosa após aplicação de protetorsolar contendo este extrato. A actividade antioxidante de CAE foi avaliada por ensaio de quimioluminescência. Um protetor solar foi desenvolvido e adicionado (FC) ou não (F) com 3,5% de CAE. A perda transepidérmicade água,o teor de água do estrato córneo, o conteúdo de sebo e o microrrelevo da pele foram avaliados antes e após 2 e 4 horas de uma única aplicação de F e FC; e após um período de 28 dias de aplicações duas vezes ao dia na face de 12 voluntárias. Técnicas de imagem cutânea foram utilizadas para avaliar poros e comedões. A análise sensorial também foi realizada. O CAE mostrou actividade antioxidante. FC controlou a secreção de sebo após 2 e 4 horas, reduziu o número de poros da pele (24%) e não aumentou o número de comedões. O CAE é um ingrediente ativo inovador da biodiversidade brasileira com actividade antioxidante e eficácia para melhorar as condições da pele oleosa.Palavras-chave: Extrato de caju, proteto...

“…Cashew is rich in anacardic acid, cardanol and cardol along with other alkyl phenolic compounds (Trevisan et al, 2006). It is also evident to have monomeric phenols, flavonoids, glycosides such as myricetin and quercetin hexoside, pentoside, rhamnosides and glycosidic anthocyanidins (Michodjehoun-Mestres et al, 2009). The leaves are rich in alkaloids, essential oils, tannins (Ayepola and Ishola, 2009), saponins, cardenolides and others (Onasanwo et al, 2012).…”

Anacardium occidentale L. is a tree native to Brazil, which is rich in phenolic lipids. Nowadays, the cashew bark (Cashew Nut Shell Liquid) has received great attention in the pharmaceutical industry, due to its economy, abundance and important chemical compounds. Net of cashew nut shell is classified according to the method of production of: (1) net of the shell of natural cashew nut (60-65% anacardic acid; 15-20% cardol and 10% of cardanol) and (2) liquid from the technical cashew nut shell (60-65% of cardanol, 15-20% cardol and 10% of polymeric material). This work aims to report the pharmacological properties of liquids from cashew nut shells. Results suggest that both liquids have antifungal, antibacterial, antiparasitic, anti-tumor, antiulcerogenic, molluscicides, antimutagenic and antioxidant activities. Natural cashew nut liquid is non-genotoxic, whereas technical liquid is genotoxic in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, although there is no evidence of their mutagenic effects on eukaryotic cells. In conclusion, the excellent antioxidant and non-mutagenic activities of cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) provide opportunities for CNSL in the cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical industries, but continuous study is needed to allow safe and efficacious preparations.
