Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis gfc-b09 strain and cosmetic composition containing same

Abstract

Provided is a Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. Lactis GFC-B09 strain and a cosmetic composition containing the same. The Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. Lactis GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P) or a culture solution thereof has the ability to increase the amount of S. epidermidis , to degrade histamine, to inhibit allergies, to repair DNA, and to increase wrinkle resistance, skin whiteness, skin density, and skin elasticity, and thus can exhibit excellent effects as a cosmetic composition when contained as an active ingredient in a cosmetic base.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A  Bifidobacterium animalis  subsp.  Lactis  GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P), having ability to increase an amount of  S. epidermidis , to degrade histamine, to inhibit allergies, to repair DNA, and to increase wrinkle resistance, skin whiteness, skin density, and skin elasticity. 
     
     
         2 . The  Bifidobacterium animalis  subsp.  Lactis  GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P) of  claim 1 , wherein the strain is derived from  Bombus pascuorum.    
     
     
         3 . A method of manufacturing a culture solution comprising seeding a  Bifidobacterium animalis  subsp.  Lactis  GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P) into an MRS medium and performing culturing. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the culturing is performed at 32-37° C. for 90-130 hr. 
     
     
         5 . A culture solution obtained by culturing the  Bifidobacterium animalis  subsp.  Lactis  GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P) of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         6 . A cosmetic composition containing a  Bifidobacterium animalis  subsp.  Lactis  GFC-B09 strain (Accession number: KCCM12263P) or a culture solution thereof as an active ingredient. 
     
     
         7 . The cosmetic composition of  claim 6 , wherein the cosmetic composition has ability to increase an amount of  S. epidermidis , to degrade histamine, to inhibit allergies, to repair DNA, and to increase wrinkle resistance, skin whiteness, skin density, and skin elasticity.
