Use
kojic acid is a skin-lightening agent that acts through anti-oxidant activity. Kojic acid is a tyrosinase inhibitor, although it is not as effective as licorice extract. When combined with allantoin and other proper ingredients in sunscreen preparations, the mixture can inhibit uV-caused erythema and accelerate wound healing. Kojic acid which is in food, cosmetics, medicine and other aspects for the efficient application, determines its considerable economic value and great potential for development. These provide a broad space for the development of domestic kojic acid industry.
