Abstract
Extracts from Schizandra chinensis Baillon (Korean name: Omija) were tested for antioxidant and their inhibitory activities of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and ${\alpha}-glucosidase$. Total contents of phenolics were found as 4.35 mg/g (water extract)${\sim}$6.35 mg/g (60% ethanol extract). Electron donating ability (EDA), ABTS [2,2'-azinobis(3-ethyl-benzothiaznoline-6-sulfonic acid)] radical decolorization, antioxidant protection factor (PF) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) were measured for the antioxidative activity of the extracts from S. chinensis. The water extract were determined as 97.5% at 200 ${\mu}g/ml$ while the activity of 60% ethanol extract were 96.2% at 200 ${\mu}g/ml$ in EDA. The 60% ethanol extract showed higher antioxidant activity than water extract when evaluated by ABTS radical decolorization, antioxidant PF and TBARS. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ inhibitory activity of water extract was similar with that of 60% EtOH extract. ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitory activities of water extract (97.4%) was higher than that of 60% ethanol extract (84.5%) at 200 ${\mu}g$/ml. The water extract from S. chinensis did not show an antimicrobial activity against Helicobacter pylori, but the 60% ethanol extract showed high antimicrobial activities such as 23 ${\pm}$ 1.6 mm of clear zone in 200 ${\mu}g/ml$ of phenolics. The result suggest that the water and 60% ethanol extract from S. chinensis will be useful as natural antioxidants and functional foods.
오미자 추출물로부터 항산화효과 및 ${\alpha}-amylase$, ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ 저해활성 및 Helicobacter pylori균에 대한 항균효과를 알아보았다. 페놀함량을 측정한 결과 물 추출물에서는 4.35 mg/g로 나타났으며, ethanol 추출물에서는 60% ethanol 추출물이 6.35 mg/g로 가장 높은 페놀함량을 나타내었다. 항산화효과와 ${\alpha}-amylase$, ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ 저해활성은 추출물의 농도를 200 ${\mu}g/ml$로 조절하여 실험하였다. DPPH에 대한 전자공여능은 물 추출물에서는 97.5%, 60% ethanol 추출물에서는 96.2%로 나타났으며, ABTS radical decolorlization을 측정한 결과 물 추출물에서는 96.8%, 60% ethanol 추출물에서는 97.0%로 나타났다. Antioxidant protection factor에서는 물 추출물이 1.77 PF, 60% ethanol 추출물은 2.08 PF로 나타났으며, PF와 같이 지용성 물질의 항산화력을 나타내는 TBARS값은 control값이 $1.17{\times}10^2$ ${\mu}M$으로 나타났고, 물 추출물에서는 $1.03{\times}10^2$ ${\mu}M$, 60% ethanol 추출물에서는 $0.54{\times}10^2$ ${\mu}M$의 TBARS값을 나타내어 지질과산화 억제 효과는 물 추출물보다 60% ethanol 추출물이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ 저해활성을 측정한 결과, 물과 60% ethanol 추출물 모두에서 100%의 높은 저해활성을 나타내었으며, ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ 저해활성효과는 물 추출물에서는 97.4%, 60% ethanol 추출물에서는 84.5%로 물 추출물에서 더 높게 나타났다. H. pylori균에 대한 항균활성은 200 ${\mu}g/ml$의 농도의 60% ethanol 추출물에서 $23{\pm}1.6$ mm의 저해환을 나타내었다.
