Abstract

This study investigated the antioxidative activity and whitening efficacy of 80% methanol extract form Rhus chinensis(RCM). The total polyphenol content of RCM was 446.66 mg GAE/g, and the total flavonoid content was 33.50 mg QE/g. The electron donating ability of RCM at 50 µg/mL concentration was 94.75%. The ABTS radical scavenging activity and reducing power of RCM at 250 µg/mL concentration were 45.60% and 0.55, respectively. At 1,000 µg/mL, RCM reduced the intracellular tyrosinase activity by 40.35%. The results of this study suggest that RCM effectively inhibits tyrosinase activity. Thus, Rhus chinensis could be used as a whitening agent and antioxidant resource in functional food and cosmetics industries.
