Abstract

As part of our screening of anticariogenic agents from medicinal plants, the ethanol extracts of 25 herbs widely used in the fork medicine were tested for the antimicrobial activity against a cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175. The ethanol extracts of Coptis chinensis, Sophora flavescens, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Mentha arvensis, and Saururus chinensis showed antimicrobial activities against S. mutans. The extracts of Coptis chinensis and Sophora flavescens among these medicinal plants showed significant antomicrobial activity against S. mutans. These results suggested that the extracts of Coptis chinensis and Sophora flavescens could be the potential source of antimicrobial agent against S. mutans ATCC 25175.

약용식물로부터 충치예방물질을 개발하기 위하여 우리나라에서 전통적으로 널리 사용되어 왔던 25종류의 약용 식물로부터 에탄올 추출물을 분리하였다. 이를 대상으로 충치 원인균인 Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175에 대한 항균활성을 나타내는 약용식물을 조사하였다. 황련, 고삼, 감초, 박하, 삼백초등이 S. mutans에 대해 항균활성을 나타냈다. 이 중 황련과 고삼의 에탄올 추출물들은 S. mutans에 대해 강한 항균활성을 나타냈다. 이 결과들을 근거로 하여 황련과 고삼의 추출물들은 S. mutans ATCC 25175에 대한 충치 예방물질로서 가능성이 있음을 나타낸다.
