AI Technical Summary
Existing research on the skin moisturizing function of lotus stems is scarce, and there is a lack of effective collagenase inhibitors, which leads to aging phenomena such as dryness, wrinkles, and sagging skin.
Lotus stems were fermented with a mixture of *Hansenula polymorpha* and *Trichoderma spp.*, and then subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis and high-temperature inactivation to prepare lotus stem fermentation products. These products inhibited collagenase activity and were then used to prepare cosmetic ingredients.
The prepared lotus stem ferment has a significant collagenase inhibitory effect, improves transepidermal water loss, and enhances skin moisturizing performance.

[0043] The enzymatic hydrolysate is placed in a 95℃ water bath for high temperature inactivation to obtain a lotus stem extract.
[0044] YPD seed culture medium: 20.0g / L of peptone, 10.0g / L of yeast extract, 20.0g / L of glucose, 1.0L of pure water, pH adjusted to 7.0; sterilized at 121℃, 0.1Mpa for 20min;
[0045] Seed liquid culture: the yeast glycerol stock tube is taken out from the-80℃ freezer, inoculated into YPD liquid medium, and placed in a 30℃ constant temperature incubator at 200r / min for 24h to obtain a yeast seed liquid.
[0046] Fermentation medium: 20.0g / L of lotus stem extract, 20.0g / L of peptone, 10.0g / L of yeast extract, 20.0g / L of glucose, 1.0L of pure water, pH adjusted to 7.0; sterilized at 121℃, 0.1Mpa for 20min.

The fermentation broth is inactivated and centrifuged after fermentation is completed, and the supernatant is precipitated with four times 95% ethanol to obtain a lotus stem fermentation product.
[0048] Test method of collagenase inhibitory activity: N-[3-(2-furyl) acryloyl]-Leu-Gly-Pro-Ala (FALGPA; Sigma) was used as the collagenase substrate, and 10 mM PBS (pH = 7.2) was used to construct the buffer system. 50 μL of collagenase (final concentration 500 μg / mL; item number SCR103; Sigma) and 50 μL of sample solution were mixed well and placed in a 37°C environment for 10 min. Then, 100 μL of substrate solution (final concentration 0.5 mM) was added and reacted at 37°C for 30 min. After the reaction, the absorbance value at 335 nm was measured by a microplate reader, and the blank group used buffer instead of sample solution.
[0049] The inhibitory activity of the sample on collagenase was calculated by the following formula: inhibition rate (%) = [1 - (test - blank) / (control - blank)].

[0074] The lotus stem ferment was diluted to 5%, and the collagenase inhibitory activity of the sample was detected according to the collagenase inhibitory activity detection method in Example 1.
[0075] The lotus stem ferment obtained in Example 3 was filtered by cellulose membrane-10KDa, and the filtrate 1 with molecular weight <10kD and the filtrate 2 with molecular weight >10kD were collected.
[0076] The filtrate 1 was further filtered by cellulose membrane-5KDa, and the filtrate 2 with molecular weight <5kD and the filtrate 2 with molecular weight 5kD-10kD were collected.

[0084] Evaluation of the efficacy of lotus stem ferment on human body:
[0085] In order to better evaluate the activity of the lotus stem ferment, the lotus stem ferment was prepared into a cream, and the effect of the lotus stem ferment on human body was evaluated. The components of the cream are shown in Table 1.
[0086] The preparation method is as follows: the components of the water phase A and the oil phase B are weighed according to Table 1, and heated in a water bath at 80°C to dissolve;
[0087] Then, B phase is added to A phase and stirred to emulsify uniformly;
[0088] When the temperature drops to about 40℃, add the C-phase lotus stamen ferment and stir until uniform;

[0092]
[0093]
[0094] Ten volunteers aged 25-40 years old were selected for efficacy evaluation. The inner sides of the left and right forearms were selected as the test area, and immediate testing was performed. The changes in the water content of the stratum corneum and the trans-epidermal water loss before and after use were compared.
[0095] The test conditions were: constant temperature of 20℃ and humidity of 60%. After the volunteers cleaned their arms, the samples were applied to the designated areas. After waiting for 60 minutes in a constant temperature and humidity room, the test was started. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0096] Among them, the lotus stem ferment obtained in Example 4 was used as the experimental group, water was used to replace the lotus stem ferment as the blank group, and the unfermented lotus stem extract was used as Comparative Example 5.
[0097] Table 2 Water content of the stratum corneum and trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) of the volunteers
[0098]
[0099] It can be seen that compared with the blank group without adding lotus stem active substances, after using the product, the water content of the stratum corneum of the volunteers increased, and the trans-epidermal water loss decreased. The activity of the fermented lotus stem was better than that before fermentation.
