Abstract: Bio-cellulose containing Indian gooseberry extract was preliminary developed for facial mask products in this research. Two Indian gooseberry fruits viz. wild and Kaset varieties were extracted with ethyl acetate. The total phenolic content and % radical scavenging activity of the extract were analyzed and it was observed that wild Indian gooseberry had higher total phenolic content with higher antioxidant activity as compared with Kaset Indian gooseberry. In addition, the two Indian gooseberries exhibited higher antioxidant activity than ascorbic acid. Wild Indian gooseberry extract was, therefore, selected for incorporating into bio-cellulose by using absorption process. Release of the absorbed extract from bio-cellulose samples was also investigated in acetate buffer pH 5.5 to simulate the release of the extract under human skin pH condition. It was found that the extract of wild Indian gooseberry could absorb well into bio-cellulose and its release was about 3.5-4.5% with high antioxidant activity. This suggests the potential development of bio-cellulose containing Indian gooseberry for facial mask products.
