Antimicrobial Activities of AC-ALL from Natural Sources against Acne

[...]studies for the development of therapeutic agents and cosmetics derived from natural products have been actively conducted9,10. In this study, we showed that the combination of natural ingredients extracted from blueberry, Asai palm, Indian gooseberry, cranberry fruit, melon and lacquer shell is effective for acne treatment. 2.MATERIALS AND METHOD: 2.1 Preparation of the Extract Mixture from Natural Products: AC-ALL was provided from GL Biotech. [...]Eucalyptol, D-Camphor, Borneol, and Caryophyllene are known to contain antiinflammatory, antibacterial, wound healing, and scar regenerating effects. [...]it can be seen that the AC-ALL contains many good ingredients effective for treating acne and is able to treat acne. 3.3Antimicrobial Effectiveness of AC-ALL Components: Linalool, Linaly acetate, eucalyptol, D-camphor, borneol, and caryophyllene were tested for antimicrobial activity against P. acnes whether those component are real components to repress the growth of P. acnes. Other compounds also have anti-inflammatory effect. [...]the antimicrobial activity of AC-ALL is thought to come from those 6 compound mainly even though other components in AC-ALL were not tested.
