description | Aging is a natural process in human that can be characterized by the appearance of black spot on the skin due to hyperpigmentation. Aging may occur due to an excessive amount of free radicals in the body. Antioxidants possess ability to capture free radicals and inhibit tyrosinase which induces skin aging. Aloe vera has been used in traditional medicine because it contains several bioactive compounds that act as antioxidant and prevent aging process. This study aims to determine phytochemical content, antioxidant activity and tyrosinase inhibition activity of Aloe vera rind (AVRE) and gel (AVGE) extract. This research was carried out at Aretha Medika Utama-Biomolecular and Biomedical Research Center in Bandung city in September-November 2018. Phytochemical assay was determined using modified Farnsworth method. Antioxidant assay was determined using DPPH scavenging activity and antiaging assay was obtained using tyrosinase inhibition assay. AVRE contains flavonoid, phenol, steroid, and alkaloid. Meanwhile, AVGE contains steroid and alkaloid. IC50 DPPH scavenging activity of AVRE was 113.18 µg/mL followed by AVGE was 291.96 µg/mL. IC50 tyrosinase inhibition activity of AVRE was 65.04 µg/mL followed by AVGE was 111.89 µg/mL. AVRE had more active DPPH scavenging activity and tyrosinase inhibition activity than AVGE. |
