(banana) pseudo-stem powder and juice for the treatment of cold and asthma is part of Cuban traditional medicine. There is not information about the influence of banana stem products on allergic reactions. Therefore, this work was aimed to assess the antiallergic potential of a banana pseudo-stem powder (BPSP) by the use of an experimental model with mice. \u0000Methods: Banana stems were collected at Marianao Municipality in Havana. The plant material was ground and filtered and the resulting powder was suspended with acacia 10 mg/mL for experiments. Acute oral toxicity was determined in both sex rats. Female BALB/c mice were sensitized against ovalbumin. Single doses of the powder (60 mg/kg b.w.) or ketotifen (3 mg/kg b.w.) were administered 1 hour before the induction systemic anaphylaxis by i.v. injection of ovalbumin. Moreover, the test product, (0,6; 2; 6 and 20 mg/kg b.w. x day) was given to mice during the immunization period, followed by the induction of systemic anaphylaxis or the measurement of passive cutaneous anaphylaxis titers of mice antisera in rats. \u0000Results: There were neither deaths nor any sign of toxicity among the rats treated with banana powder. Unlike ketotifen, a single oral dose of this product was unable to inhibit systemic anaphylaxis in mice. However, a daily oral treatment produced the significant reduction of active and passive anaphylaxis. \u0000Conclusion: This work has given the first experimental evidence that a pseudo-stem powder of M. paradisiaca grown in Cuba has an antiallergic potential.","PeriodicalId":14291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Phytocosmetics and Natural Ingredients","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88889182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Organogel which is a cold emulsifier and offers refined sensory properties, physical-chemical characteristics and stability could be solved this limitation. The aim of this study is to develop cosmetic formulations by cold process containing natural ingredients and assess through design of experiment (DOE) the influencing factors on the physical-mechanical and sensory properties of these formulations. Physico-mechanical and sensory properties of cosmetic formulations containing natural ingredients obtained by cold process were evaluated. The DOE was performed for the texture analyses. In addition, the influence of natural actives substances in the developed formulations was assessed. The different concentrations of polymers, organogel and active substances influenced the texture profile of the formulations, being the concentration of organogel the most influential factor. The formulation containing sunflower oil, a polymer from a natural source and the highest concentration of organogel influenced the firmness, consistency, cohesiveness and viscosity. The work of shear decreased in the formulation added of the polymer and increased when the formulation was supplemented with active substances. The sensory analysis showed that the formulation based on 5% of organogel, sunflower oil and polymer it was preference for the selected formulation. In conclusion, the application of DOE for the rational development of cosmetic formulations based on natural ingredients led to formulations with physico-mechanical and sensory properties suitable for the application on the skin.","PeriodicalId":14291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Phytocosmetics and Natural Ingredients","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80071192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other foods include fruits, rhizomes, tubers and condiments. The functional properties and nutritive composition are described for 22 native seeds, leaves and flowers. In comparison with recognized international herbs, it is demonstrated that some native Mesoamerican herbs have an important nutritious and functional composition. A rich traditional culinary heritage is the way that these foods are consumed. The use of traditional dishes and innovative fusions with Maya Super Foods is recommended for economy improvement of the region as well as health and beauty.","PeriodicalId":14291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Phytocosmetics and Natural Ingredients","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78800978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a long time, biodiversity and genetic resources were considered part of the heritage of mankind and were available without restriction for scientific research and commercial use. Plant diversity predominantly occurred in old world countries with significant associated traditional knowledge about their potential value. However, they were predominantly exploited by the technologically rich countries, earning major commercial benefits under the auspices of intellectual property rights (IPR). This realization led to division of the world into biodiversity rich and technologically rich countries and global discontentment on unfair sharing of benefits accrued from their commercialization. It led to development of Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), providing nations the sovereign ownership over biological resources found in their territory, controlling access, ensuring community rights, IPR and right for fair and equitable benefit sharing arising from commercialization. In pursuance, it led to development International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture under FAO in 2001, to regulate access and benefit sharing of genetic resources of major agricultural crops. It was followed by the Nagoya Protocol, another Access and Benefit System (ABS) system in 2010, covering all biological resources to ensure fair and equitable benefits arising from their commercialization. The present article discusses, how fair and transparent provisions Nagoya Protocol can facilitate greater international cooperation in development and use of plant-based phytonutraceutics, phytotherapeutics and phytocosmetics.","PeriodicalId":14291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Phytocosmetics and Natural Ingredients","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78407630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Orally administered Phlebodium complex may provide protection against the detrimental photoaging effects of sunlight, can help reduce the frequency and severity of polymorphous light eruption, and is beneficial for the prevention and potential treatment of several aesthetically relevant conditions. The purpose of this review is to describe beneficial role of Phlebodium complex as an adjunct treatment for vitiligo, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation. Various extracts applied topically or taken orally have shown several beneficial antioxidant, photo-protectant, anti-mutagenic, and immunoregulatory effects. Modern studies have evaluated the efficacy of Phlebodium extracts as a photoprotective agent and for use in several photo-aggravated dermatologic disorders such as polymorphous light eruption, photodermatoses, vitiligo, melasma, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and more recently, in minimizing infections in high-performance athletes. It is these multiple mechanisms of action, in combination with a favorable side effect profile, which make Phlebodium complex a promising adjunctive treatment for several dermatologic disorders. Aerial part has proved to exert antioxidant, photo-protective and immunomodulatory activities; extract of fronds is a natural mixture of phytochemicals endowed with powerful antioxidant properties as flavonoids compared to rhizome. Phlebodium fern extract of fronds and rhizome blocked the deleterious effect of UV irradiation in vitro and in vivo as a natural photoprotectant and potential adjuvant to phototherapy of various skin diseases.","PeriodicalId":14291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Phytocosmetics and Natural Ingredients","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85098717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial was carried out including 60 patients between 18 and 25 years old diagnosed with grade O, I and II acne in whom the clinical evaluation, measurement of sebaceous secretion and hydration were performed, in addition to photographic records. The intervention time was 3 weeks and the follow-up was 3 additional weeks. Patients were selected according to inclusion criteria and divided into two groups by simple randomization. The intervention group received the glycolic extract of C. sinensis as treatment and the control group received a preparation with the same organoleptic characteristics. Both groups used the preparation topically for three weeks. The evaluations and measurements of the study variables were carried out weekly. The application of glycolic extract of C. sinensis showed an adequate control of the sebaceous secretion (P = 0.001) without producing dry skin. The hydration levels were higher in the intervention group in relation to the control group (P = 0.18). It was also observed that the color of the skin is uniform. No side effects were observed.
