Urea-extracted sericin is potentially better than kojic acid in the inhibition of melanogenesis through increased reactive oxygen species generation
Background: Hyperpigmentation is a skin disorder, which is caused by an excess production of melanin. The reduction in melanin content without causing undesirable effects is required for the treatment of hyperpigmentation. Sericin is increasingly used as a hyperpigmentation treatment because of its...
