Abstract

|
|
To develop potential cosmetic ingredients with antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of 4 Korean bamboo species (P. bambusoides, P. nigra var. henonis, P. pubescens and Sasa coreana) using three different extraction methods-water, ethanol and supercritical fluid extraction. Antimicrobial activities and DPPH assay have been examined. Among the antimicrobial activities against two test strains, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, ethanol extracts of 3 bamboo trees, P. bambusoides, P. nigra var. henonis, and P. pubescens, showed stronger than those of supercritical extracts. However, 4 bamboo supercritical extracts showed dose-dependent increase in antioxidant activity by DPPH assay. These results suggest that water fraction of bamboo extracts may be useful for the cosmetic ingredient with low cytotoxicity.
