Abstract

Recently, microalgal biotechnology has attained great acceptance among various researchers and industries for the green and sustainable production of different bioactive compounds. They provide multiple metabolites and molecules, making them an ideal candidate for cosmetic formulators and cosmeceutical companies. Nevertheless, numerous microalgae strains have never been studied for their pharmaceutical, nutritional and cosmeceutical purposes. Even less, only some have been cultivated on a large scale for bioactive compound production. Here, we have studied the cosmetic and cosmeceutical potentials of different microalgal strains for sunscreen as adjuvants and boosters in a green, carbon-neutral and sustainable platform. Other bioactive compounds were exploited, and the available products in the market and the published patents were also reviewed. From our review, it will be possible to combine the fundamental and practical aspects of microalgal biotechnology toward a greener and more sustainable future for the cosmetic/cosmeceutical areas of the photoprotection scenario.

基于微藻的防晒霜作为绿色和可持续的化妆品。

最近，微藻生物技术在绿色、可持续地生产不同生物活性化合物方面，得到了众多研究人员和行业的认可。微藻可提供多种代谢物和分子，是化妆品配方设计师和药妆公司的理想选择。然而，许多微藻菌株从未被研究用于制药、营养和化妆品用途。更有甚者，只有一些微藻被大规模培养用于生产生物活性化合物。在此，我们研究了不同微藻菌株作为佐剂和促进剂在绿色、碳中和和可持续平台上用于防晒霜的化妆品和药用潜力。我们还开发了其他生物活性化合物，并对市场上的现有产品和已公布的专利进行了审查。通过我们的综述，可以将微藻生物技术的基础和实践相结合，为光防护领域的化妆品/药妆领域创造更绿色、更可持续的未来。

期刊介绍： The Journal publishes original refereed papers, review papers and correspondence in the fields of cosmetic research. It is read by practising cosmetic scientists and dermatologists, as well as specialists in more diverse disciplines that are developing new products which contact the skin, hair, nails or mucous membranes. The aim of the Journal is to present current scientific research, both pure and applied, in: cosmetics, toiletries, perfumery and allied fields. Areas that are of particular interest include: studies in skin physiology and interactions with cosmetic ingredients, innovation in claim substantiation methods (in silico, in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo), human and in vitro safety testing of cosmetic ingredients and products, physical chemistry and technology of emulsion and dispersed systems, theory and application of surfactants, new developments in olfactive research, aerosol technology and selected aspects of analytical chemistry.
