This study examined the emulsion stability, oxidative stability, and skin-whitening effects of emulsions containing wheat-bran-derived lipids. The emulsions were prepared using soybean oil (control) containing different concentrations of wheat bran-derived lipids. The emulsion stability of the treatments (49.17-52.33%) was higher than that of the control (46.00%). The peroxide values of the emulsions containing wheat-bran-derived lipids were lower than those of the control, regardless of the cultivar or treatment ratio. Moreover, among the treatments, those with 0.3 and 0.7% of jokyoung resulted in the lowest emulsion thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values. The skin-whitening effect of the emulsions containing wheat-bran-derived lipids increased with the lipid content. The highest tyrosinase inhibition rate was observed with the 0.7% jokyoung treatment (71.41%), while the control exhibited the lowest enzyme inhibitory activity (p<0.05). Based on these results, we suggest that wheat-bran-derived lipids can be successfully applied in the cosmetics industry.
