Polyphenolic profile of Grape Seed Extract (gse) and evaluation of anti-oxidant/anti-aging properties
Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper aims at studying and analyzing polyphenolic content found in grape seed extract (GSE) through different conventional & modern extraction techniques. It also evaluates antioxidant and anti-aging properties of polyphenols extracted from grape seed. Owing to its anti-oxidant properties, polyphenols may help in slowing down skin aging process and may also be used in cosmetic formulations that can retard or slow down the process of aging by scavenging free radicals produced in the skin due to environmental degradation. Antioxidant potential/capacity of GSE has also been evaluated through in vitro and in vivo evaluation techniques.
