Abstract

Inositol and phytic acid extracted from rice bran were investigated for applying cosmetics. Skin lotions containing $0{\~}3.0\;wt\%$ inositol and $0{\~}1.50\;wt%$ phytic acid were applied respectively, to the arm skins of 45 Asian women 20'~40's for 7 weeks. Improvement on moisture was evaluated. In addition, improvements on sebum, elasticity, and wrinkle were examined after applying placebo, inositol and phytic acid-containing skin lotions tot face, respectively. For $1.0\;wt\%$ inositol, it resulted in $19\%$ increase of moisture. The wrinkle reduction and elasticity improved $12.4%\;and\;17.0\%$ on average, respec-tively. Applying $0.5\;wt\%$ phytic acid resulted in $71.6\%$ increase the moisture. Improvements on wrinkle and elasticity were $16.9%\;and\;21.9\%$ respectivelv. hpplving inositol or phytic acid regardless of dry or oily skin, resulted in sebum value recovery to that of the normal skin after 2~4 weeks. Although inositol is inferior to phytic acid in improvements of the skin, phytic acid is not suitable to sensitive skin. So, $0~0.50\;wt\%$ of phytic acid were added to $1.0\;wt\%$ inositol and similar experiments were carried out. In case of added $1.0\;wt\%$ phytic acid, moisture increased $63.8\%$ approximately. Improvements on elasticity and reduction on wrinkle were $17.2%\;and\;17.4\%,$ respectively. Both skin types were turned to normal skin type after 2 weeks. It could improve the skin condition when used inositol added phytic acid. The optimized concentration of phytic acid was $0.10\;wt\%\;with\;1.0\;wt\%$ of inositol without side effect.

쌀눈에서 추출한 inositol과 phytic acid를 화장품에 적용하기 위해 피부에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다 $20{\~}40$대의 아시안 여성 45명을 대상으로 7주간 inositol $0{\~}3.0\;wt\%$와 phytic acid $0{\~}1.50\;wt%$가 함유된 스킨로션을 제조, 사용 후 피부의 수분, 유분, 탄력, 주름에 미치는 영향에 대해서 알아보았다 Inositol $1.0\;wt\%가$ 함유된 스킨로션을 사용한 경우 피부의 수분 함유량은 $19\%$ 증가하였으며, 주름은 $12.4\%$ 개선되었고, 피부탄력은 $12.4\%$ 증가되었다. 또한 phytic acid $0.50\;wt\%$를 함유한 스킨 로션을 사용한 경우 피부의 수분은 $71.6\%$ 증가하였으며, 주름은 $16.9\%$ 감소하였고, 탄력은 $21.9\%$가 증가하였다. Inositol과 phytic acid를 지성과 건성피부에 적용한 결과 $2{\~}4$주 후면 정상피부의 유분량으로 조절됨을 알 수 있었다 Inositol과 phytic acid는 모두 피부개선에 효과적이나, phytic acid는 민감한 피부에는 적용하기 어려운 점이 있다. 따라서 $1.0\;wt\%의$ inositol에 $0{\~}0.5\;wt\%$의 phytic acid를 첨가한 스킨로션을 제조하여 그 효과에 대해서 알아보았다. 이 경우 $1.0\;wt\%$의 phytic acid에 $1.0\;wt\%$의 inositol을 사용한 경우 수분은 $63.8\%$, 탄력은$17.2\%$ 증가하였으며, 주름은 $17.4\%$ 개선되었고, 피부 유분량은 약 2주 후에 정상적인 상태로 개선됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 inositol $1.0\;wt\%$$0.10\;wt\%$의 phytic acid를 첨가하여도 피부 개선효과가 나타남을 알 수 있다. 본 연구의 결과 내에서 $1.0\;wt\%$의 phytic acid와 $1.0\;wt\%$의 inositol을 사용한 경우 적은 양으로도 피부 개선 효과가 우수한 상승효과가 나타남을 알 수 있었다.
