This research aims to evaluate the biocosmetic potential of Xylaria psidii and its properties related to skin lightening.
Used agar plate screening for culturable endophytes from Aegle marmelos
Conducted a spectrophotometric assay to measure enzyme activity
Performed IC 50 determinations for tyrosinase and antioxidant activities
Isolate #4-2AMLGP5-1 significantly inhibited tyrosinase with IC 50 values of 123.9 and 139.9 µg/ml
The isolate demonstrates antioxidant capabilities with IC 50 values of 107.5, 87.6, and 115.1 µg/ml for DPPH, ABTS, and H2O2, respectively
Results suggest potential applications of Xylaria psidii in cosmeceuticals.
