A processing method of Angelica dahurica root and a composition for inducing biosynthesis of collagen comprising the processed Angelica dahurica roots

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition for inducing biosynthesis of collagen or improving wrinkles containing Angelica dahurica roots. The composition comprising processed Angelica dahurica roots, which are processed by heating Angelica dahurica roots using water or a C1 to C4 lower alcohol solution as a solvent and drying the same, or oxypeucedanin hydrate as an active ingredient, can induce biosynthesis of collagen. Also, the composition comprising processed Angelica dahurica roots or oxypeucedanin hydrate as an active ingredient can be used as cosmetics, and pharmaceutical and food compositions for improving skin wrinkles or healing a wound.
