Abstract

Oral streptococci are major constituents of dental plaques, and their prevalence is closely linked with various pathologic symptoms, such as dental caries. To develop natural anticaries agent, we prepared 309 kinds of plant extracts from 215 species of edible or medical plants, and antibacterial activity of the extracts against Streptococcus mutans JC-2 were evaluated based on 96 well microtiter plate assay and disk paper method, subsequently. Among the tested plant extracts, Ailanthus altissima, Paeonia lactiflora, Rubus phoenicolasius, Aralia continentalis, Quercus acutissima, Persicaria hydropiper and Agrimonia pilosa extracts showed strong antimicrobial activity. Determination of minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the selected seven plant extracts showed that Ailanthus altissima, Persicaria hydropiper and Quercus acutissima extracts ($MIC=25\∼30[\mu}g/ml$) has potential as a source of natural anticaries agents.

식용 및 약용 식물 215 종의 천연물로부터 추출부위를 달리한 메탄올 추출물 309 종을 조제하였으며, 안전성이 우수한 천연물 충치예방 및 치료제 개발을 목표로 309종의 추출물의 S. mutans JC-2에 대한 항균 활성을 평가하였다. 항균활성은 96 well microtiter method에 의한 생육저해능 측정 및 disk paper method에 의한 생육저지환 크기를 측정하여 평가하였으며, 그 결과 가죽나무(가지), 곰딸기(열매), 독활(잎), 상수리나무(잎), 여뀌(전초), 작약(종자), 짚신나물(뿌리) 추출물에서 강한 활성을 확인하였다. 상기 7종 천연물의 최소 생육저지농도(MIC)를 측정하여 항균 활성을 비교한 결과, 여뀌, 상수리나무, 가죽나무 추출물이 $25\∼30{\mu}g/ml $의 농도에서 생육을 완전히 억제하였다 이러한 결과는 항균력이 우수한 천연물로부터 새로운 충치 예방 및 치료제 개발이 가능함을 제시한다
