This study was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-skin aging effects of rutin treated by sub- and super-critical water (SW). The ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities of the SW treated rutin were increased to 541.86±33.65 and 728.73±1.34 mg AAE/g at 300°C in 100 bar but decreased to 500.78±12.08 and 694.88±4.69 mg AAE/g at 400°C in 250 bar, respectively. Tyrosinase, elastase and collagenase inhibitory activity were the highest value of 57.76±2.28%, 79.65±0.78% and 79.24% at 300°C in 100 bar, respectively but decreased above condition. Astringent activity was highest value of 57.53±2.17% at 300°C in 100 bar. These results was confirm the high antioxidant activities and anti-aging effect of rutin treated with SW and the SW treatment process can be used as a functional compounds development.
