Utilization of extracted substance from Indian almond leaves, Terminalia catappa L. for preparation of folk medicinal cream for the use of skin protection

Abstract

Abstract:The aim of this work was to study the method to prepare the folk medicinal cream for the use of skin protection from the extracted substance of Indian almond leaves, Terminalia catappa L. in 4 periods as young green leaf , mature green leaf, orange red leaf and brown leaf by 4 methods. Tannic acid was the key index in preparation ,and tested by TLC and quantized its content. β-carotene was also TLC test in quality check. The study showed that the brown leaves sample treated by heating at 100 o C for 5 minutes and continue fermentation for 21 days, gave the extracted solution that contained highest tannic acid approximately as 80 mg/100g and was considered the best one. The extracted solution was used as one ingredient in folk cream. In this work, the four formulations with variation of extracted solution were studied and analysed total phenolic compound , tannic acid and antioxidant inhibition power. The cream with more extracted substance showed total phenolic compound , tannic acid more than those fewer content of extracted substance. This work found that the skin cream protection with antioxidation substance could made from extracted substance of Indian almond leaves.

Biological synthesis of manganese oxide nanoparticles from aerial parts of Prunus dulcis and their in vitro investigation of medical properties

“…So far, different research groups investigated the aerial parts (leaves, seeds, and seed oil) of P. dulcis to study various biological properties such as antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer, and antifertility 38–41 . Also, cream derived from almond leaf extract has been found to provide skin protection 42 . Almond oil gives nourishment to skin and serves as an excellent antibacterial agent.…”

“…[38][39][40][41] Also, cream derived from almond leaf extract has been found to provide skin protection. 42 Almond oil gives nourishment to skin and serves as an excellent antibacterial agent. To isolate the volatile oil from plant parts, Clevenger apparatus is highly recommended.…”
