Abstract
Extensive research was carried out for inhibition of melanin formation as development of whitening cosmetic ingredients. But degradation of melanin itself was not intensively pursued as development of cosmetics. In this study, novel melanin degradation enzyme was developed and characterized. Also this enzyme production process was optimized and formulation was tried using micro encapsulation technique.
