ORAC or oxygen radical absorbance activities in cosmeceuticals product development

Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a measure of the antioxidant capacity of a substance, indicating its ability to neutralize free radicals and prevent oxidative stress [1]. In cosmeceuticals, ORAC is used to assess the potential of ingredients to protect the skin from environmental stressors such as pollution and UV radiation.

Some cosmeceutical ingredients with high ORAC values include green tea, vitamin C, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, resveratrol, and various plant extracts such as grape seed, pomegranate, and bilberry. These ingredients are commonly included in anti-aging and protective skincare products to help prevent oxidative damage to the skin and promote overall skin health [2].

ORAC values can vary depending on the source and preparation of the ingredient, as well as the method of testing. Therefore, it is important to use standardized methods for ORAC testing and to consider multiple sources of antioxidant activity in a cosmeceutical product development to achieve the most effective protection against free radical damage [3].
