Dendrobium extract is promising as a cosmetic material

 Dendrobium, an orchid family plant widely distributed in Thailand and Laos, is used in both traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for health promotion and anti-aging.


The aim of this study was to investigate the phytochemical composition and biological efficacy of stems, leaves and flowers of D. sulcatum for cosmetic and cosmeceutical applications. Phenolic chemicals such as flavonoids in D. sulcatum phytochemically, and antioxidant, antilipid peroxidation, antiglycation, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tyrosinase biology using DPPH, FRAP, and ABTS assays Academic usability was evaluated.

The results showed that the phenol content was higher in the stem and leaves than in the flowers, and the leaf extract showed the highest flavonoid content. Similarly, the antioxidant, antilipid peroxidation, and anti-inflammatory activities of the extracts were also higher in stems and leaves, with leaf extracts exhibiting the greatest anti-glycation properties. Anti-tyrosinase assay of the extracts showed strong activity with over 70% inhibition in leaves and flowers. These findings suggest that ethanolic extracts of D. sulcatum are a promising source of natural active ingredients for cosmetics and cosmeceuticals.
