Abstract

The inhibitory effect of extract of Atractylodis Rhizoma alba on melanin biogenesis was studied by using B16/F10 melanoma in culture. Atractylodis Rhizoma alba significantly inhibited tyrosinase activity, and melanin contents with or without $\alpha$-MSH and forskolin in vitro. Melanin contents and tyro-sinase activity have decreased in a dose-dependent manner. These results show that extract of Atractylodis Rhizoma alba could be developed as skin whitening components of cosmetics.
