- Nigrospora is a filamentous dematiaceous fungus widely distributed in soil, decaying plants, and seeds. Nigrospora colonies are rapid growing, compact, woolly, at first white, becoming gray with black areas and a black reverse color. Nigrospora sphaerica produce conidiophores which forcibly discharge the conidia. The Conidia are black, solitary, unicellular, slightly flattened horizontally, and have a thin equatorial germ slit. Nigrospora sphaerica, the best known species of the genus Nigrospora, may be found in the Hawaiian Islands and around the Pacific Ocean, among other places. The extracts of Nigrospora sphaerica suitable for use in the present compositions are organic solvent extracts, e.g., alcoholic extracts (methanol) or ethyl acetate extracts.

- This example illustrates reduction in new melanin synthesis using the inventive extracts of o Nigrospora sphaerica.
- the extracts of Nigrospora shpaerica used throughout the examples that follow were prepared in accordance with the procedures set forth hereinabove.
- Waste skin from 8-month old pigmented pigs was shaved to remove hairs and washed thoroughly to remove debris and reduce microbial content.
- the deaned skin was then dermatomed to approximately 1-mm thickness x 75-cm 2 and placed in tissue culture flasks containing Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM Cat#1188507) containing penicillin (100-units/ml), streptomycin (100-ug/ml), kanamycin (200-ug/ml), glutamine (2- mM), and fungizone (0.5-ug/ml). All flasks were incubated overnight at 37°C in the presence of 5% carbon dioxide. This allowed the skin to equilibrate for 18 hours prior to the addition of melanin inhibitors. Areas of the skin that had scratches, erythema, or uneven pigmentation were discarded.
- MelanoDerm tissue equivalent model (MEL-300 from Mat Tek, Ashland, Massachusetts) containing melanocytes obtained from dark skin individuals was utilized to confirm the results obtained in the pig organ culture. MelanoDemns were cultured as per the supplier instructions.
- Medium was replaced every two days over a 14-day period and treatments including the natural extracts were added to the medium phase at a final concentration of 50 and 100-micrograms per ml.
- Positive control was included, i.e., kojic acid, which is a known skin lightening agent.
- kojic acid which is a known skin lightening agent.
- a portion of the waste was analyzed for levels of lactate dehydrogenase as an indicator of cellular toxicity and stress. At no time was the level of lactate dehydrogenase above the vehicle control solvents (water or ethanol). Determination of melanin content within each MelanoDerm was performed using the assay provided by the manufacturer.
- Each MelanoDerm was homogenized in 450- microliters of buffer (1% SDS, 0.05-mM EDTA, 10-mM Tris-HCI, pH 6.8) containing 20- microliters of Proteinase K (5 mg/ml) and incubated overnight at 45°C. The following day, 50-microliters of sodium carbonate (500-mM) and 10-microliters of hydrogen peroxide (30% solution) was added to each sample and incubated at 80°C for 30 minutes and then cooled. The optical density of the top phase was determined (405-nm) following extraction of the sample with 100-microliters of chloroform:methanol (2:1) and centrifugation (10,000 g) for ten minutes. Optical density readings relative to the untreated or vehide control (water or ethanol) were then calculated.
- buffer 1% SDS, 0.05-mM EDTA, 10-mM Tris-HCI, pH 6.8
- 50-microliters of sodium carbonate 500-mM
- a base formulation shown in the Table below was made by heating phase A ingredients to 70 to 85° C with stirring. Phase B ingredients were heated in a separate container to 70 to 85° C with stirring. Then, phase A was added into phase B while both phases were kept at 70 to 85° C. The mixture was stirred for at least 15 minutes at 70 to 85° C, then cooled.
