Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition containing a Rubus coreanus extract as an active ingredient, and more particularly to a cosmetic composition containing an extract from Rubus coreanus processed by traditional oriental medicinal processing technology, in which the Rubus coreanus extract has an excellent effect of reducing skin wrinkles by inhibiting the formation of SNARE complexes and the release of a neurotransmitter. The cosmetic composition has excellent stability in formulations compared to conventional products for reducing skin wrinkles and exhibit effects similar to Botox which has been used to reduce skin wrinkles, thereby greatly reducing skin wrinkles without causing adverse effects.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an extract of a processed herbal medicinal plant and a composition for skin external application which contains the extract. More specifically, the composition for skin external application contains an extract of processed herbal medicinal plant, prepared through a method comprising the steps of: (a) processing an herbal medicinal plant by a process of boiling, steaming, roasting, baking or heating the medicinal plant or a combination of two or more of these processes; (b) obtaining an extract of the processed medicinal plant. The composition shows an improved antioxidant effect.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the novel Rhizobium sp. GIN611 KCTC11708BP or to cell extracts thereof, to a novel oxidoreductase which exhibits a glycolytic activity, to a gene encoding the oxidoreductase, to a recombinant strain comprising recombinant vector proteins or to an expression vector encoding recombinant proteins, and to a method for the glycolysis of natural products using same as a biocatalyst. The present invention also relates to a method for producing aglycones from a variety of natural products using same. The novel oxidoreductase separated from the novel microorganism of the present invention does not belong to a glucosidase group but belongs to an oxidoreductase group, and has a glycolytic activity for natural products. The novel oxidoreductase oxidizes the sugar in the aglycones of natural products, thereby producing a variety of aglycones.
Abstract:
Provided is a pressure-cycling type of extraction device comprising: an extraction unit for accommodating and extracting an extraction target substance; a compression unit for increasing the pressure inside the extraction unit; and a decompression unit for decreasing the pressure inside the extraction unit; wherein the pressure inside the extraction unit is increased and decreased by alternately operating the compression unit and the decompression unit, and the extraction unit comprises a bubbling nozzle for supplying bubbles into the extraction target substance. Further provided is a pressure-cycling type of extraction method in which a compression process and a decompression process are carried out alternately, and compositions produced by the method. The extraction device and method allow low temperature extraction, permit outstanding extraction efficiency and can prevent colour changes, olfactory changes and thermal denaturation of the extraction target substance.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for preparing polysaccharides of green tea, and more particularly to a method for preparing polysaccharides of green tea comprising the steps of: a) removing chlorophyll and a low molecular weight polyphenol from green tea powder using a solvent; b) hot-water extracting a water-soluble active ingredient from the green tea residue of step a); and c) separating the polysaccharides of green tea from the hot-water extract of step b) by ultrafiltration and ethanol precipitation. Also, the present invention relates to a cosmetic composition for skin whitening, moisturization and anti-wrinkle effects comprising the polysaccharides of green tea as an effective ingredient.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for skin external application containing a pine root extract. More specifically, the composition for skin external application according to the present invention contains, as an active ingredient, a pine root extract which shows various effects, including eliminating free radicals, protecting the cell membrane from damage by UV radiation, inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species caused by UV radiation, inhibiting the reduction in the expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase caused by UV radiation, stimulating the production of HSP70 to protect cells, inhibiting MMP-2 biosynthesis caused by UV radiation, inducing the expression of SIRT1 gene that restores DNA damage, and inducing the expression of LMNA1 gene that maintains the structure of the nuclear membrane. Ultimately, the composition of the present invention prevents skin aging.
