“…The monophenolase activity and the diphenolase activity assays were performed according to a previous report with a slight modification (Kim et al 2004). L-Tyrosine (2 mM) was used as the substrate for the monophenolase activity assay, and L-DOPA (2 mM) was used as the substrate for the diphenolase activity assay.…”

“…C-7 carboxyl group of kojic acid has been converted into esters, hydroxyphenyl ethers, glycosides, and amino-acid derivatives [130]. Kojic acid conjugation to the tripeptide FWY has been investigated and studies have shown that the tripeptide decreases the acid's toxicity, increases its storage stability, and most importantly, increases the inhibitory effect by 100-fold [131].…”

“…Besides that, solid-phase synthesis of kojic acid-tripeptides and their tyrosinase inhibitory activity, storage stability, and toxicity, concluded that these derivatives were almost 15 times more stable under ambient stored conditions with a lower toxicity than kojic acid itself. Kojic acid derivatives were relatively higher with tyrosinase inhibitory activities than that of kojic acid [4]. Further evidence claimed kojic acid derivatives are major class of many natural and synthetic compounds that own a high activity profile because of their wide range of biological activities [8].…”

“…Latterly, the whitening agent in this acid benefits as an essential ingredient in cosmetic cream to block the formation of pigments by the deep cells on the skin [2]. It was studied intensively by several researches due to its potential as a tyrosinase inhibitor to prevent browning in food production as well as a skin lightening agent for cosmetic preparations [3][4][5]. In Asia, hyroquinone, a well-known whitening agent, was banned for cosmetic usage for its toxicity.…”
