Abstract
To develop the functional food, methanol extracts of dried plantain (Plantago asiatica L.) was fractionated in hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and aqueous fraction. DPPH radical scavenging effect, reducing power, nitrite scavenging effect and antimicrobial activities of these fractions were investigated. Ethyl acetate fraction among these fractions showed the highest effect of all experiments. Ethyl acetate fraction showed about 60% scavenging effect on the DPPH radicals at 400 $\mu$g/5 mL. Nitrite scavenging effect of ethyl acetate and butanol fraction was more than 70~80% at concentration above of 500 $\mu$g. Among various solvent fractions from methanol extracts of plantain, ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest inhibitory effect on the microorganism such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus at 5 mg/disc.
