Abstract

Background: Skin aging is characterized by features such as wrinkling, loss of elasticity, laxity, rough textured appearance, and phenotypic changes in cutaneous cells. Skin aging treatment usually with a synthetic compound with unknown side effects but with herbal such as black tea, these side effects will be minimalized. Objective: This research was conducted to evaluate the qualitative phytochemical screening assay, total phenolic and flavonoid contents, anti-oxidants, and skin anti-aging properties of black tea extract (BTE). Method: This qualitative phytochemical content using the Farnsworth modified method. Total phenol content was calculated using gallic acid equivalent (GAE), and total flavonoid content was calculated using quercetin equivalent (QE). The anti-oxidant properties using 2,2 diphenyl 1 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-Azinobis (3- Ethylbenzthiazoline-6-Sulfonate) (ABTS), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging activities. The anti-aging properties were assayed using elastase and collagenase inhibition activities. Results: BTE contained terpenoids, triterpenoids, phenols, flavonoids, tannins. BTE contained phenol 52.81 μg GAE/mg, flavonoids 10.96 QE/mg. The IC50 value of DPPH, ABTS, H2O2 scavenging activities was 15.29; 88.18; 17.21 μg/ml respectively. The IC50 value of elastase and collagenase inhibition was 31.34; 123.74 μg/ml respectively. Conclusion: BTE has highly active and active anti-oxidant and is also less active and moderately active in skin anti-aging activities.
