This study aimed to optimize and develop the color lipstick formulation containing antioxidant-rich Thai Sacha inchi oil using full factorial experimental design. Antioxidant capacity of Sacha inchi oil was elucidated using DPPH and linoleic acid peroxidation assays. The y-tocopherol content of the oil was also determined by high-performance liquid chromatography.

The aim of the study was to analyse the microbiological and biochemical activity of a reclaimed landfill produced during extraction and processing ozokerite and sown with Trifolium hybridum and Dactylis glomerata. The analyses were carried out in the third year after application of two doses of sewage sludge, spent mushroom substrate, sawdust, and manure to the landfill soil. The following parameters were determined: the total number of oligotrophic bacteria and filamentous fungi, the number of cellulolytic and lipolytic bacteria and fungi, respiratory activity, the activity of dehydrogenases, β-glucosidase, and lipase, and the activity of fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis.

The purpose of this study was to develop a pharmaceutical formulation containing fatty acid extract rich in free omega-3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid for topical use. Although the health benefits of cod liver oil and other fish oils taken orally as a dietary supplement have been acknowledged and exploited, it is clear that their use can be extended further to cover their antibacterial properties. In vitro evaluation showed that 20% (v/v) fatty acid extract exhibits good activity against strains of the Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptoccoccus pyogenes and Streptoccoccus pneumonia.
