Antioxidant, Anti-wrinkle and Antimicrobial Effects of Coffee Grounds Extract from Dutch Coffee

This study confirmed possibility of cosmetic material for Espresso coffee grounds extracted at high temperature, high pressure, short time and Dutch coffee grounds extracted at low temperature, atmospheric pressure, long time. For this purpose, we evaluated the biological activities of antioxidant, anti-wrinkles and antimicrobial effects using ethanol extracts of Esproso and Dutch coffee grounds. The results of total polyphenolic compound contents was $90.39{\pm}0.04mg/g$ for Dutch coffee grounds extract, which was higher than $64.96{\pm}0.38mg/g$ for Espresso coffee grounds extract, based on $113.63{\pm}0.22mg/g$ for coffee beans extract as the reference one. DPPH radical scavenging activity and SOD-like activity of Dutch coffee grounds extract were found to be better than those of Espresso coffee grounds extracts, referenced on coffee bean extract. As a result of inhibition effect of Elastase activity, Dutch coffee grounds extract showed higher inhibition effect than Espresso coffee grounds extract, based on coffee bean extract. In addition, Dutch coffee grounds extract showed good anti-microbial effects at Escherichia coli, Bacillus, Propionibacterium acnes and there was little difference in the clear zone size between Dutch coffee grounds extract and coffee bean extract as a reference one. From the results of the experiments, it was confirmed that Dutch coffee grounds extract had excellent antioxidant, anti-wrinkle and antimicrobial effects and could be used as safe natural cosmetic material in the future.

더치 Coffee Grounds 추출물의 항산화, 주름개선, 항균 효과

본 연구는 저온, 상압, 긴 시간에 추출되는 더치 coffee grounds에 대하여 상대적으로 고온, 고압, 짧은 시간에 추출되는 에스프레소 coffee grounds와 비교하여 화장품 소재로서 가능성을 확인하는 것이다. 이를 위해서 본 저자들은 더치 coffee grounds의 에탄올 추출물을 사용하여 항산화, 주름개선, 항균효과에 대한 생물학적 활성 평가를 수행하였다. 총 폴리페놀 화합물 함량은 더치 coffee grounds 추출물의 경우 $90.39{\pm}0.04mg/g$로 $64.96{\pm}0.38mg/g$의 에스프레소 coffee grounds 추출물보다 더 높은 결과를 나타났으며, 참고로 기준물질인 원두 coffee beans 추출물은 $113.63{\pm}0.22mg/g$을 나타내었다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능 및 SOD 유사 활성능 결과에서 기준물질인 원두 coffee bean 추출물에 대하여, 더치 coffee grounds 추출물이 에스프레소 coffee grounds 추출물 보다 좋은 소거능이 제시되었다. Elastase 활성 저해능을 측정 결과에서 원두 coffee bean 추출물을 기준으로, 더치 coffee grounds 추출물이 에스프레소 coffee grounds 추출물 보다 높은 저해능을 나타냈다. 또한 항균 활성 측정 결과에서는 더치 coffee grounds 추출물은 Escherichia coli, Bacillus, Propionibacterium acnes에서 항균 효과가 나타났으며 기준물질인 원두 coffee bean 추출물과 clear zone 크기의 차이가 거의 없었다. 상기 실험 결과로부터 더치 coffee grounds의 우수한 항산화, 주름개선, 항균효능을 확인하였으며 향후 천연 화장품 원료로 사용될 가능성을 확인하였다.
