Abstract

To evaluate whether chaff vinegar liquor (CVL) has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms in mice, we tested the anti-allergic activities with a DNFB (dinitrofluorobenzene)-induced allergic mouse model. The DNFB-induced allergic symptoms were reduced by 20% compared to the control by chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with Perilla frutescens var. acuta. Allergic symptoms were examined by measuring the width of epidermis swelling. The hematoxyline & eosin (H&E) staining also revealed that the chaff vinegar liquor dramatically decreased the allergic symptoms in the epidermis of the ear. These results collectively suggest that the chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with P. frutescens var. acuta has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms, showing that the liquor could be a useful biomaterial(s) for the nutraceutical or cosmetic industries.

왕겨를 증류하여 생성된 왕겨초 증류액을 이용하여 접촉성 피부염에 어떤 영향이 있는지를 검토하였다. 왕겨초 증류액(2%)에 자소옆을 첨가한 샘플은 dinitrochlorobenzene에 의해 유발된 접촉성 피부염 질환 동물모델에서 피부상피조직의 비후정도를 약 20%정도의 수준으로 완화시키며, 이는 면역조직화학적인 방법으로 확인하였다. 이 결과로, 왕겨초 증류액은 아토피 완화 효과를 가지므로 이들의 적합한 조건을 확립한다면 향장소재 또는 이의 조성물로 유용하게 이용될 수 있다고 판단된다.
