Ferulic acid is a hydroxycinnamic acid, a type of organic compound. It is an abundant phenolic phytochemical found in plant cell wall components such as arabinoxylans as covalent side chains. Topical sunscreens have been used for many years on exposed areas to protect the skin from the damaging effects of ultraviolets. If the sunscreens were essential, it is suggested that they have adverse effects. We chose to study ferulic acid ethyl ester (FAEE) as agent which could potentially be used in sunscreen products. FAEE was incorporated at various concentrations into O/W emulsions. Total of 30 mg of product exactly weighed were spread on poly(methylmethacrylate) plates over the whole surface (25 cm(2)). So, sun protection factor (SPF) and PF-UVA of the creams were measured in vitro. Transmission measurements between 290 and 400 nm were carried out using a spectrophotometer equipped with an integrating sphere. Incorporated in O/W creams, at a concentration of 10%, FAEE give a SPF similar to that of benzymidazilate, a filter permitted in EU.
