ALOE VERA For over 2500 years, perennial succulent herbs -- genus Aloe (family Aloeaceae) -- have grown in temperate and subtropical parts of the world. While this plant genus is believed to have originated in Africa, its presence in the western hemisphere was reported in travelogues around 1650 where it was observed on the island of Barbados and commonly known as Aloe vera, or the true Aloe plant. The genus includes 200 or more species. Some of them are cultivated for the resinous latex contained in their thick, fleshy leaves. Since biblical times, aloe plants have figured among folkloric remedies as purgatives and as treatments for skin disorders. The name, aloe, is derived from the Arabic "alloeh" or Hebrew "halal" meaning bitter shiny substance. Two types of exudates are secreted by aloe leaves. One is a bitter reddish-yellow juice contained in the pericyclic cells located under the strongly cutinized epidermis of the leaves. This "juice" has been generally used for laxative purposes and, in dried form, is the officially recognized Aloe of the United States Pharmacopeia. Its bitterness is due to the presence of aloin, aloe-emodin and related compounds. The other exudate is a transparent, slippery mucilage or gel produced by the thin-walled tubular cells in the inner central zone (parenchyma) of the leaf. The raw "gel" resembles colorless gelatin with hair-like connective matrices and is also sometimes called "juice." In antiquity, this mucilage was applied to inflamed skin and during the 20th century it was used on radiation burns. The growing trend toward using natural-source materials has led to renewed interest in using this mucilage, as well as a variety of other aloe extracts, as cosmetic ingredients. BOTANICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ALOE VERA What is commonly called Aloe vera is more accurately identified by its botanical name, Aloe barbadensis Miller, formerly known as Aloe vera Tournefort ex Linne and Aloe vulgaris Lamarck. Throughout history, the plant has been given assorted names including deity plant, medicine plant, luhui (China), musabbar (India), jelly leek (Tibet) and Zabila or S'avila (South Texas). Aloe barbadensis Miller physically resembles the century plant Agave americana and is often mistaken for it. But Aloe barbadensis is neither an agave nor a cactus, although like the agave it belongs to the Liliales, or lily, order. Liliales is one of the largest orders of flowering plants (Division Magnoliophyta - the angiosperms, Class Liliopsida - the monocotyledons, Subclass Liliidae - petaloid flowers) with 400 genera and 8,000 species. Aloe thus has many well-known relatives including the garden vegetables garlic, leek, chive, yam, asparagus and onion. Indeed, a faintly characteristic onion-like odor is sometimes detected in the liquid extracted from Aloe vera leaves.

The Aloe vera plant appears stemless, having a basal rosette of fleshy leaves that are lance-shaped with a sharp apex and spiny, saw-toothed margin. The leaves vary in color from gray to bright green and are sometimes mottled or striped. In the mature plant, the leaves may be as long as 30 inches, weigh about 3 pounds and measure 4 to 5 inches at the base. In the spring, the mature Aloe vera bears vivid yellow blooms on a long spicate stem. For this reason, many of the aloe species are frequently raised as ornamentals and as houseplants in Florida, California, Cuba, the Philippines and the American Southwest. Since the plant is a succulent, it is self-irrigating and, therefore, easily propagated from cuttings. The plant is native to southeastern Europe, northern Africa and Madagascar and is cultivated in Italy, Malta and the West Indies. The Jesuits are credited with introducing it into the New World where it is now a familiar sight along the south Texas border and in Florida. PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ALOE VERA MUCILAGE The raw leaf mucilage consists of 99.5% water, so it is not too surprising that the plant is injured at a temperature of 35F and is killed at 32F. The solids (approximately 0.5%) contain, depending on climatic or seasonal variances, complex mixtures of mucopolysaccharides, amino acids, natural hydroxyquinone glucosides, minerals and many other materials. Compounds that have been isolated from Aloe barbadensis by various researchers include aloin [1,8-dihydroxy3-hydroxymethyl-10-(6-hydroxymethyl-3,4,5-trihydroxy-2-pyranyl) anthrone], aloe emodin (3-hydroxylmethylchrysazin), aloetinic acid, choline and choline salicylate, complex mucopolysaccharides similar to hyaluronic acid, sapogenins and enzymes such as catalase, amylase, cellulase and alliinase. Mineral analyses have shown the presence of calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, aluminum, iron and zinc. Waller et al in 1978 reported finding some 17 free amino acids with arginine, asparagine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and serine predominating. Free monosaccharides consisted of D-mannose and D-glucose in a molar ratio of 5:4 and trace amounts of xylose, rhamnose, galactose, and either arabinose or fucose were found. Some sterols (cholesterol, campesterol and 3-sitosterol) were found in substantial amounts in lipid fractions. Also found was the triterpenoid lupeol and an unknown alkaloid. When the leaf is cut open, the colorless, transparent gelatinous mucilage inside exudes. For use in personal care products or health food drinks, this mucilaginous liquid is mechanically removed from the fibrous matrix. Since the liquid is sensitive to light and heat, it can deteriorate quickly unless it is properly preserved, buffered and stabilized.

OTHER ALOE VERA LEAF "GELS" A change in the definition of Aloe Vera [Barbadensis] Gel occurred in 1995 that required the user to look closely at the identity of material now being offered as aloe gel. The first and second editions of the CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook tightly defined Aloe Vera Gel as "the mucilage obtained in the juice expressed from the leaves of Aloe barbadensis Miller." With a change in name in the third edition to Aloe Barbadensis Gel, harmonizing usage with that in the European community, the definition was modified to "the juice expressed from the leaves of the aloe, Aloe barbadensis." This definition has been retained, although the INCI name has since been changed to Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice. This change allows aloe plants from subspecies other than Miller to be used. Further, and perhaps more importantly, it allows juice other than the historically utilized mucilage to be marketed under the same name, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice. Indeed, aloe liquids expressed from the whole leaf and from the rind only are now available. While total solids content is markedly enhanced for these juices, expressed from the leaves using a variety of procedures, whether these solids are as valuable or desirable remains to be determined. The import of the difference in composition may be illustrated by considering the difference in enjoyment derived from eating bananas, with and without the peels, or watermelon, with and without the rind! IMPLICATIONS OF COVERA ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF JUICES FOR USE IN PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS As a Moisturizing Agent. Aloe mucilaginous gel is classed among natural gum resins. Like many other mucopolysaccharides, the gel is a film-former. This characteristic in combination with the high water content of the Aloe vera mucilage suggests that the liquid may be useful in skin moisturization. Additionally, the natural acidity (in the range of pH 4-5) of the mucilaginous liquid puts it in the same region as that of normal skin pH. As a Sunscreen Agent. Natural anthraquinones or anthracenic derivatives, such as those found in aloe sap (free or combined as glycosides) reportedly absorb ultraviolet (UV) light within the skin's erythemal range. For example, the parent compound of barbaloin, a highly conjugated anthrone glycoside, absorbs UV light between 250-290 nm with peak absorbance at 260-275 nm. Similarly, emodin is considered potentially useful as a UV absorber in the erythemal range of 290-300 nm. As a Cosmetic Ingredient. Aloe vera has had a long history of use as a topical treatment in home remedies for minor skin injuries and for beautification purposes with no apparently harmful effects reported. It is generally compatible with conventional cosmetic ingredients and can be incorporated into most cosmetic products.

IMPLICATIONS FOR HEALTH DRINK UTILITY As a Laxative Glycosides having anthraquinone ring structures (such as emodin) are classified as chemical cathartics and their activity is limited to the colon. The glycosidal principal is believed to be released on ingestion by action of intestinal juices, absorbed by the blood stream and then released again into the colon where intestinal bacteria transform it into emodin. Emodin induces peristaltic activity. Because of its long and varied historical usage, much folklore as well as fact surrounds Aloe vera. Only the formulator/investigator can best judge its role in specific applications.

SAMPLE PERSONAL CARE FORMULAE

Throughout the history of folk-remedies, the raw aloe leaf mucilage, alone or in combination with herbs, spices, and other plant extracts, was applied to the skin for either beautification or curative purposes. For today's sophisticated personal care products, CoVera purified and stabilized aloe vera leaf mucilage has been made available. Because of its naturally high water content, this plant product can be used in place of part, or all, of the water in many conventional skin and hair care product formulations. CoVera is compatible with the vast majority of common water-soluble cosmetic ingredients. It can be used in all types of lotion and cream emulsions, shampoos, liquid and bar soaps, body washes, liquid makeups, and other products containing water typically offered by the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. For example, CoVera has been used in such products as ointments, shampoos, hair conditioners, hand and body lotions, cleansing creams, skin fresheners, moisturizing creams, peel-off facial masks, night creams, beauty bars, suntan and after-tanning lotions, sunburn and burn-relief aids, lipsticks and lip balms. The list of product applications is unlimited. Modern cosmetic formulators have been exploring the full potential of this interesting plant hydrocolloid in their own product lines. They are undoubtedly utilizing the chemistry of natural mucopolysaccharides and natural hydroxyquinones, such as those found in aloe vera, to develop unique products. It is not surprising, therefore, that few prototype cosmetic formulae have appeared in the literature in recent years. Much has been printed, of course, on the historical and botanical background of aloe vera. Some sample formulations reproduced on the following pages provide the cosmetic formulator with application ideas. If you desire further information, samples, or service, simply contact us at your convenience.
