Abstract
The antioxidant activity was examined on ultra-fine powdered (UFP) Ulmus davidiana (U. davidiana) var. japonica. The average particle size of UFP or commercial powdered (CP) was $1-3{\mu}m$ or $100{\mu}m$. The extraction was performed using either ethanol (EtOH) or hot-water. Contents of phenolic compound of CP and UFP U. davidiana extracts in EtOH was 40.38 and 65.61 mg/g, respectively. In DPPH, EtOH extract of UFP U. davidiana showed a significantly greater activity than hot-water extract at 40 and $200{\mu}g/mL$. At $200{\mu}g/mL$, the activity was over 90% in all groups. The reducing power of UFP U. davidiana var. japonica in EtOH extraction was 74.3%, which was significantly greater than in other samples (p<0.05). In addition, reducing powder was significantly higher in UFP-EtOH than in other samples at all concentrations except for $0.32{\mu}g/mL$. The above results suggest that EtOH extraction of U. davidiana showed slightly higher DPPH radical scavenging activity, and ultra-fine powder of U. davidiana extracts may show higher antioxidative activities based on reducing power.
