Tyrosinase inhibitor microemulsion as well as preparation method and application thereof
2013
The invention discloses tyrosinase inhibitor microemulsion as well as a preparation method and an application thereof, and belongs to the technical fields of foods, medicines and cosmetics. The microemulsion contains a matrix, a tyrosinase inhibitor norartocarpetin and water, wherein the matrix comprises 40%-60% of surface active agent, 20%-45% of cosurfactant and 5%-20% of oil phase; and the microemulsion is prepared by adding raw components according to a certain ratio. The tyrosinase inhibitor microemulsion can be used for overcoming the defects that the solubility of the natural tyrosinase inhibitor norartocarpetin in water is extremely low. The method provided by the invention is simple to operate and can be used for the spontaneous formation of the microemulsion. Nanoscale microemulsion can be formed by using water or an aqueous solution for diluting the tyrosinase inhibitor microemulsion. The obtained microemulsion can be used for effectively resisting enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables, and preparing whitening cosmetics and other medicines for preventing and treating human hyperpigmentation diseases and melanomas (caused by excessive melanin) needing to inhibit the activity of tyrosinase.
