Abstract: The activity of tyrosinase showed some relation to production of melanin.The noncompetitive inhibition of EGb on tyrosinase was determined with L-Tryosine substrate.The Kivalue was 34mg/L.The maximum inhibition rate was 52.83%at EGb concentration of 0.16mg/ml.It was hopeful that EGb might be taken as a drug in the treatment and prevention of melanin sickness.
