OLE (Olive Lichen Extraction)
| Division: | Sciences de la terre et de l'environnement | | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | | Région: | Central Okanagan | | Ville: | Kelowna, BC | | École: | Kelowna Senior Secondary | | Sommaire: | Usnic acid was extracted from Usnea hirta. The extract was transferred into olive oil to create a solution that could be used as sunscreen. The sample was then run through a spectrophotometer to determine UV absorption. These results were used to calculate SPF. The results indicate that a sunscreen is possible, although an increased concentration of usnic acid is required for a reasonable SPF. |
