TLDR The 10% Angiopteris evecta hair tonic is stable, promotes hair growth, and is safe.
The study aimed to formulate a stable, effective, and safe hair tonic using the water fraction of Angiopteris evecta extract at concentrations of 7.5%, 10.0%, and 12.5%. Physical stability tests and hair growth activity tests on rabbits showed that the hair tonic was stable and promoted hair growth, with the 10.0% formulation (F3) demonstrating the best results. The tonic was also found to be safe and non-irritating. The study suggested further testing on bald volunteers to verify the formula's effectiveness before marketing.
