Abstract

This research was designed to investigate the antioxidant activities and tyrosinase inhibitory effects of guava (Psidium guajava L.) leaf. Total phenol content was obtained from guava leaf extract of 19.0 (g/100g, D.W.). The crude extract exhibited significantly antioxidant activities (IC50value $102.5{\mu}g/ml$, free radical scavenging; $49.4{\mu}g/ml$, SOD like activity). The crude extract of guava leaf was fractionated into four partition layers; hexane (G-H), ethyl acetate (G-E), butanol (G-B) and water (G-W) layer. The extracts of G-E, G-B, G-W showed high radical scavenging activities of over 50% at $100{\mu}g/ml$. SOD like activities of G-E, G-B, G-W were revealed, as 81.8%, 84.7%, 65.3% at $100{\mu}g/ml$, while those of G-H did not showed the effectively. The crude extract of guava leaf showed high tyrosinase inhibitory effect as 60.8% at 1mg/ml, the measurement of G-E, G-B, G-W were 65.2%, 62.8%, 51.6% and that of G-H was not effective. These results indicate that useful bioactive substances exist in the guava leaf extracts, especially G-E, G-B. And the guava leaf has the potential of being developed into health related products.

본 연구는 기능성소재 개발에 이용될 수 있는 유용한 기초자료를 얻고자 구아바 잎의 총페놀화합물의 함량, 항산화활성, tyrosinase 저해활성을 측정하였다. 1. 구이바잎 추출물의 총페놀화합물은 19.0(g/100g, D.W.)의 함량으로 강한 항산화활성을 보였다(radical 소거활성의 IC50는 $102.5{\mu}g/ml$, SOD 유사활성의 IC50는 $49.4{\mu}g/ml).$) 2. 용매분획물의 radical 소거활상을 측정한 결과, $100{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에선도 ethylacetate(G-E), butanol(G-B), 물분획(G-W)은 50% 이상의 높은 소거활성을 보였다 radical 소거 활성은 G-B>G-E>G-W 순으로 높은 활성을 보였고, 각 분획물의 농도가 증가할수록 소거능이 높아지는 경향을 나타냈다. hexane분획(G-H)의 소거활성은 보이지 않았다. 3. 용매분획별 SOD 유사활성에 대한 결과, $100{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 G-E, G-B, G-W는 각각 81.8, 84.7, 65.3%로 높은 활성을 나타냈으며, 각 분획물의 농도가 증가할수록 SOD 유사활성도 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다 G-H의 활성은 보이지 않았다. 4. 구아바잎의 추출물과 용매분획물의 tyrosinase저해 효과를 측정한 결과, 추출물 1mg/ml의 농도에서 60.8%의 저해효과을 보였으며, 용매분획은 G-E(65.2%), G-B(62.8%), G-W(51.6%), G-H(28.9%)의 순으로 tyrosinase 저해효과를 보였다.
