Effect of non-fermented and fermented maca root extracts on intracellular melanin content. Intracellular melanin content of B16F10 treated with maca root extracts fermented using (a) Lactiplantibacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum KCTC 3108, (b) Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus KCTC 5033, (c) Lacticaseibacillus casei KCTC 3109, and (d) Lactobacillus gasseri KCTC 3143. Error bars, mean ± SD. # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.005 and ### p < 0.0005 compared to the α-MSH group, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.005, and *** p < 0.0005 compared to the same concentration of non-fermented maca root extracts.
