Microencapsulation of caledula essential oil for skin anti-aging
Abstract
Oxidative stress is caused by various factors that lead to the appearance of signs of skin aging. Calendula is a plant that
contains molecules with antioxidant activity in its structure, which leads to the neutralization of free radicals from oxidative
stress. The present study aimed to extract the essential oils from this plant using the maceration method to create an O/W
emulsion through the ultrasonication method at a power of 250 W. In order to promote interaction between the aqueous and
oily phases, Tween 80 was incorporated as a non-ionic surfactant. Sodium alginate was also used as a stabilizing agent. Finally,
the presence of functional groups was confirmed through FTIR characterization, and the formation of the microemulsion was
observed through optical microscopy. Thus, microemulsification is proposed as an alternative for the transport of bioactive
substances from medicinal plants.
