This study compared and evaluated the antioxidant activities of Symphoricarpos albus(S. albus) extract and fermented extract. Antioxidant activity was measured by DPPH radical scavenging, FRAP, and ABTS. Concentrations were measured at 200, 100, 50, and 10 ㎍/mL, and antioxidant activity increased in a concentration-dependent manner. S. albus leaves fermented extracts had the highest antioxidant activity. And this study evaluated the safety and tail regeneration of S. albus extract using zebrafish model embryos. Zebrafish are in the spotlight as an alternative animal and can be used for cosmetic research. Zebrafish embryos were collected and evaluated for coagulation rate, hatching rate, and cardiotoxicity. As a result, it was toxic at concentrations above 100 ㎍/ml. The tail was cut and the regenerative effect was observed for 3 days. As a result, from 72 hours, S. albus 200ug/ml leaf extract showed a 17% regenerative effect compared to the control group. These results suggest that S. albus can be used as a natural material for antioxidant and regeneration for skin improvement.
