1. Cocoa Agro-Industrial Residue (Theobroma cacao) as Inducer of the Production of Fungal Laccase and Kojic Acid for Application in the Biodegradation of 17-α-Ethinylestradiol
Due to the ability to catalyze the oxidation of several substrates, the enzyme laccase has been used in several applications, among them the bioremediation of emerging pollutants. This work evaluate the capacity of the cocoa agro-industrial residue to induce the production of Pycnoporus sanguineus laccase and to apply the enzymatic extract in the biodegradat

2. The Anti-melanogenesis Activities of Some Selected Brown Macroalgae from Northern Coasts of the Persian Gulf
Abstract Melanogenesis is a biological process which led to the synthesis of melanin pigment. Abnormal melanin production results in melasma, solar lentigo, post inflammatory melanoderma, etc. In this study, we examined the potential inhibitory effects of 17 brown macroalgae from Persian Gulf on melanogenesis. The effects of various concentrations (100, 250

3. N-Acetyl-cysteine Increases Chemical Stability of Hydroquinone in Pharmaceutical Formulations: a Theoretical and Experimental Approach
In this study, the chemistry stability of hydroquinone (HQ) was evaluated according to its effects in redox properties and compared to kojic acid (KA). The HQ oxidation was more inhibited by N-acetylcysteine (NAC) than ascorbic acid (AA). These results were elucidated using theoretical methods at the DFT/B3LYP level of theory. All electronic parameters were

5. ELUCIDATION OF THE ELECTRONIC SPECTRUM CHANGES OF KA-Al3+ COMPLEX BY POTENTIOMETRIC TITRATION, FTIR, 13C RMN AND QUANTUM MECHANICS
Kojic acid (KA) is an organic acid widely used in pharmaceutical industry, mainly as a skin lightening agent. Based on the ability of KA to form complexes with ions, we found the most possible kind of complex formed with cation aluminum. KA-Al3+ complex structures were studied using potentiometric and spectrophotometric (UV) titrations, FTIR and 13C NMR. The

6. In vitro and cellular activities of the selected fruits residues for skin aging treatment
ABSTRACT Peel extracts of litchi and rambutan, and that of tamarind seed coat were investigated in relation to their utility in skin-aging treatments. Standardized extracts of tamarind were significantly (p < 0.05) more efficient at O2 •- scavenging (IC50 = 27.44 ± 0.09) than those of litchi and rambutan (IC50 = 29.57 ± 0.30 and 39.49 ± 0.52 μg/ml, res

8. Modulation of antimicrobial metabolites production by the fungus Aspergillus parasiticus
Biosynthesis of active secondary metabolites by fungi occurs as a specific response to the different growing environments. Changes in this environment alter the chemical and biological profiles leading to metabolites diversification and consequently to novel pharmacological applications. In this work, it was studied the influence of three parameters (ferment

10. Determinação simultânea de ácido kójico e hidroquinona por espectrofotometria visível e calibração multivariada
A multivariate spectrophotometric method was developed for analysis of kojic acid/hydroquinone associations in skin whitening cosmetics. The method is based on the reaction between kojic acid and Fe3+ and on the reduction of Fe3+ by hydroquinone and further complexation of Fe2+ with 1,10-phenanthroline. The multivariate model was developed by Partial Least S

11. In vitro evaluation of copaiba oil as a kojic acid skin enhancer
A propriedade do óleo de copaíba como agente promotor de penetração cutânea do despigmentante ácido kójico foi avaliada utilizando-se sistema de difusão in vitro com fluxo estático, membrana de pele da serpente cascavel - Crotalus durissus terrificus e solução salina a 34±2 ºC como fluido receptor. As quantidades liberadas do ácido kójico no f

12. COMPORTAMENTO MOLECULAR DA HIDROQUINONA EM PREPARAÇÕES FARMACÊUTICAS
There are many pathological changes of skin color classified into hereditary and acquired hyper-pigmentation. The depigmetant drugs mostly used in the treatment of skin hyperpigmentation are zelaic acid, phytic acid, ascorbic acid, kojic acid, tretinoin and hydroquinone. However, hydroquinone is mainly used in masterful formulations; primarily in the handlin
