Bacterial cellulose membranes (BCs) are becoming useful as a drug delivery system to the skin. However, there are very few reports on their application of plant substances to the skin. was used for the production of bacterial cellulose (BC). The BC containing 5% and 10% ethanolic extract of Epilobium angustifolium (FEE) (BC-5%FEE and BC-10%FEE, respectively) were prepared. Their mechanical, structural, and antioxidant properties, as well as phenolic acid content, were evaluated. The bioavailability of BC-FESs using mouse L929 fibroblasts as model cells was tested. Moreover, In Vitro penetration through the pigskin of the selected phenolic acids contained in FEE and their accumulation in the skin after topical application of BC-FEEs was examined. The BC-FEEs were characterized by antioxidant activity. The BC-5% FEE showed relatively low toxicity to healthy mouse fibroblasts. Gallic acid (GA), chlorogenic acid (ChA), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHB), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HB), 3-hydroxybenzoic acid (3-HB), and caffeic acid (CA) found in FEE were also identified in the membranes. After topical application of the membranes to the pigskin penetration of some phenolic acid and other antioxidants through the skin as well as their accumulation in the skin was observed. The bacterial cellulose membrane loaded by plant extract may be an interesting solution for topical antioxidant delivery to the skin.
细菌纤维素膜(BC)作为一种向皮肤递药的系统正变得越来越有用。然而,关于其将植物物质应用于皮肤的报道却很少。本研究使用狭叶柳叶菜(Epilobium angustifolium)的 5%和 10%乙醇提取物(分别为 BC-5%FEE 和 BC-10%FEE)制备了含有细菌纤维素(BC)的膜。评估了它们的机械、结构和抗氧化性能以及酚酸含量。使用小鼠 L929 成纤维细胞作为模型细胞测试了 BC-FESs 的生物利用度。此外,还研究了 FEE 中所含的选定酚酸在体外通过猪皮的渗透及其在局部应用 BC-FEE 后在皮肤中的积累。BC-FEEs 具有抗氧化活性。BC-5%FEE 对健康的小鼠成纤维细胞的毒性相对较低。在 FEE 中发现的没食子酸(GA)、绿原酸(ChA)、3,4-二羟基苯甲酸(3,4-DHB)、对羟基苯甲酸(4-HB)、3-羟基苯甲酸(3-HB)和咖啡酸(CA)也存在于膜中。将膜局部应用于猪皮后,观察到一些酚酸和其他抗氧化剂通过皮肤渗透以及它们在皮肤中的积累。负载植物提取物的细菌纤维素膜可能是向皮肤局部递送抗氧化剂的一种有趣的解决方案。
