Olive by-products: Challenge application in cosmetic industry

Dry fractionation of olive pomace as a sustainable process to produce fillers for biocomposites

“…Additionally, given thehigh amounts of cellulose and hemicellulose present in stone-rich fractions (Table 2), they may act as functional ingredients in cosmetic formulations, by improving physical and structural properties of hydration, oil holding capacity, emulsion and oxidative stability, viscosity, texture, sensory characteristics, and shelf-life of products [47]. These fractions could also find applications in animal feeding.…”

Mushrooms extracts and compounds in cosmetics, cosmeceuticals and nutricosmetics—A review

“…These products are known to contain ingredients that influence the biological function of the skin by supplying the needed nutrients for healthy skin while improving the appearance, the radiance, texture and anti-ageing activity (Hyde et al, 2010). The application of natural ingredients such as phytonutrients, microbial metabolites, dairy products (Haruta-Ono et al, 2012;Keller et al, 2014), minerals and animal protein components (Rodrigues et al, 2015) for skin care is very popular today. Extracts of coconut, jasmine, lemon grass, longan and several medicinal plants have been known to play an important role in the treatment of various skin diseases; being for this reason extensively studied and used in many countries around the world, including Africa (De Wet et al, 2013), where they play an important role in skin health care.…”

Quantitative NMR Studies of Multiple Compound Mixtures

“…Natural products have a close relation with our everyday life and play an important role in modern life science [113] and are extensively applied for drug discovery [114,115], food [116], and cosmetic development [117]. In traditional natural products research, several restrictive factors may slow down the discovery and identification of new single chemical entities (SCEs), such as time consuming and cumbersome separation, purification and structural elucidation steps, redundant work such as identifying already known compounds, limited detection sensitivity, lacking systematic registration of origin organisms and derived compounds.…”
