Aloe L. species (Aloaceae) are ethnobotanically very valuable plants in many communities and civilizations. Nonetheless, very few species are extensively studied to explore their applications in the pharmaceutical and medical, cosmetic and personal care, food and beverage, and detergent industries. This study evaluated the characteristics and quality of lab-based shampoos formulated from the gel of Aloe adigratana Reynolds. Five shampoo formulations, 20 mL each, were prepared from A. adigratana gel in combination with one to two drops of coconut oil, jojoba oil, olive oil, pure glycerin oil, lemon juice, and vitamin E. Gel mass is prepared from mature, healthy leaves collected from the natural stand. The phytochemistry of the gel of the plant was also studied using phytochemical screening, proximate composition, and GC-MS analysis studies. Shampoo formulations with higher proportion (40 to 50% v/v) of A. adigratana gel were found to have comparable characteristics and qualities with a marketed shampoo. They fall within the range of acceptable quality parameters of commercial shampoos. The phytochemical studies of A. adigratana gel showed that the plant is the source of highly valued compounds for the preparation of shampoos. The gel was found to be rich in saponins as well as dodecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid, and phytol. Future works should focus in the development of refined protocol towards formulating A. adigratana-based shampoos.

基于实验室的芦荟芦荟香波的配方和理化评估。

芦荟种（Aloaceae）在许多社区和文明中都是植物学上非常有价值的植物。然而，很少有物种被广泛研究以探索其在制药和医疗，化妆品和个人护理，食品和饮料以及洗涤剂行业中的应用。这项研究评估了由芦荟芦荟凝胶配制的实验室洗发水的特性和质量。从A. agragratana制备五种洗发水配方，每种20 mL凝胶与1-2滴椰子油，荷荷巴油，橄榄油，纯甘油油，柠檬汁和维生素E混合使用。凝胶团块是从天然林中采集的成熟健康的叶子制成的。还使用植物化学筛选，临近的成分和GC-MS分析研究对植物凝胶的植物化学进行了研究。发现具有较高比例（40％至50％v / v）的A.adigratana凝胶的洗发水配方具有与市售洗发水相当的特性和质量。它们落在商业洗发剂可接受的质量参数范围内。姬松茸的植物化学研究凝胶表明，植物是制备香波的高价值化合物的来源。发现该凝胶富含皂苷以及十二烷酸，十六烷酸和植醇。未来的工作应集中在改进配方的开发上，以配制基于adigratana的香波。
