Abstract


In this research, the silk fibroin masks containing the antibacterial allicin were formulated using the simple molding method. The main ingredient, fibroin, was extracted from silk cocoons with a 20.49% efficiency. The mask smell, thickness, durability, and retention period were of appropriate values. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) of the mask demonstrated the features of the ingredients fibroin, gelatin, and allicin. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the mask's morphology, which revealed a porous structure and the presence of the active component allicin. The allicin in the mask was released with an efficiency of 48.33%, and it penetrated the skin epidermis with an efficiency of 88.95%. Conclusively, the masks have satisfied all the standards of a cosmetic skin care product.
