The Comparative Evaluation of Fermented and Non-fermented Soybean Extract on Antioxidation and Whitening
Open accessAbstract
The present study was performed to compare the antioxidative and whitening activities of fermented soybean extract (FSB) and non-fermented soybean extract (SB). Antioxidative and whitening activities of FSB and SB were evaluated by the determination of DPPH, superoxide radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, linoleic acid inhibition activity, and tyrosinase inhibition activity. FSB showed the higher effect than SB in the antioxidative activities. Also FSB showed the better effect than SB in whitening activity. These results demonstrated that the fermentation played a more excellent role than the non-fermentation in antioxidation and whitening. Therefore, this study suggested that FSB could be a useful cosmetic ingredient for antioxidation and skin whitening.

Fermented soybean with Bifidobacterium animalis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis has improved skin hydration and elasticity, anti-oxidant, skin whitening, and reduction of discoloration properties.

From Use of Waste from the Food Industry and Applications of the Fermentation Process to Create Sustainable Cosmetic Products: A Review (2024) · cites this paper as [162]
The Materials and Methods section says the soybean was fermented with Bacillus subtilis 168, not Bifidobacterium animalis or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The Results and Discussion section reports stronger antioxidant activity and tyrosinase inhibition, suggesting a potential skin-whitening effect. It does not report improved skin hydration or elasticity, or a measured reduction in discoloration; the page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.89)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
