This study evaluated the nutritional compositions of dropwort (Oenanthe javanica) extracts depending on the ethanol concentrations. Extractions were performed with hot water, 50% ethanol, 80% ethanol, and 95% ethanol for 4 hours. Changes in yield, as well as total carbohydrate, crude protein, crude fat, total dietary fiber, free sugar, and mineral (Na, Fe, and Ca) contents were investigated. The highest extraction yield of ethanol extracts was 44.67% in 50% ethanol extract of dropwort. Crude protein content reached a maximum of 6.70% while carbohydrate content was highest at 19.6%, in 50% ethanol extract of dropwort. Crude fat content irregularly increased according to ethanol concentration as compared with hot water extract. Total dietary fiber content decreased in ethanol extract, but these changes were not concentration-related. Total sugar contents were highest in hot water and 80% ethanol extracts. Vitamin A content of ethanol extract was higher than that of hot water extract. Mineral (Na, Ca, and Fe) contents were significantly reduced in ethanol extract according to concentration of ethanol, whereas mineral contents were higher in ethanol extract than in hot water extract. Based on this study, ethanol extract of dropwort is more efficient for development of desirable processed foods.

This study was conducted to determine the antioxidant activities of ethanol and water extracts of Sargassum hemiphyllum. Antioxidant activities were evaluated by assessing total phenolic contents, 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, chelating effect, reducing power, and using the rancimat method. Total phenolic contents in the ethanol and water extracts were 17.91 and 13.44 mg gallic acid equivalents/g, respectively. Ethanol extract showed higher DPPH radical scavenging activity than water extract and similar activity to that of BHT. The reducing power of ethanol and water extracts increased in a concentration-dependent manner. Particularly, ethanol extract was more effective than water extract. Water extract showed a higher chelating effect compared to ethanol extract. The antioxidant index measured by rancimat was lower than those in BHT, but the ethanol extract showed a higher value than the water extract. The ethanol extract showed higher antioxidant activity than the water extract, except for the chelating effect. These results suggest that the ethanol extract of Sargassum hemiphyllum has more potent antioxidant activity and may be used as a source of natural antioxidants.

This study was conducted to examine the antimicrobial activity of Perilla frutescens var. acuta leaf fractions extracted with a mixture of ethanol and water. The Ca and Mg contents of the leaf were 595.75 mg% and 467.0 mg%, respectively, and they were the highest among all of the test minerals. The extract yield increased w e content of water in e extraction solvent. Antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was found in the 50,70 and 95% ethanol extracts. Of the various fractions extracted from the mixture of ethanol and water, the ethyl acetate fraction showed antibacterial activity against all microorganisms tested in this experiment, and the antibacterial activity of ethyl acetate fraction from the water extract was the strongest. The phenol and flavonoid content in the ethyl acetate fraction showed no correlation with the concentration of ethanol in the extract solvent; however, their contents were higher in the 30% ethanol and water extraction which the antimicrobial activity of the extract was the strongest.

This study was carried out for the functional investigation of the $Ulmus$ $pumila$ L. extracts for use in functional-food processing. Extracts of $Ulmus$ $pumila$ L. were obtained using distilled water and 70% ethanol, and the extracts were tested for their electron-donating ability, SOD-like activity, nitrate-scavenging ability, and anticancer (MDA and A 549 cells) activity. The extraction yields of the water and ethanol extracts were 12.7 and 12.0%, respectively; the polyphenol contents were $623.5{\pm}2.4$ and $710.5{\pm}2.1$ mg/100 g; the electron-donating ability was high in proportion with the density; and the water extract was higher than the ethanol extract (76 and 64%, respectively) at 1,000 ppm. In all the 1,000 ppm densities, the SOD-like activity of the water extract was far higher than that of the ethanol extract (53 and 38%, respectively), and the nitrite-scavenging ability of the ethanol extract was higher than that of the water extract (47 and 43%, respectively). As for the anticancer ability at 1,000 ppm, it was 62% in the water extract and 42% in the ethanol extract in the MDA cell, and 60% in the water extract and 45% in the ethanol extract in the A 549 cell. Thus, the proliferation inhibition ability of the water extract against cancer cells was found to be far higher than that of the ethanol extract (60 and 45%, respectively).

이 연구에서는 미국산 R. rhabarbarum L.과 중국산 R. palmatum L.의 줄기 추출물과 그리고 한국산 R. undulatum L.의 뿌리 추출물이 천연항산화제로서의 사용 가능성을 평가하였다. 대황의 페놀화합물을 추출하기 위해서 물, 에탄올, 메탄올이 사용되었다. 에탄올이 대황(Rhubarb)에서 페놀화합물을 추출하는데 가장 효과적인 용매였으며 50% 에탄올은 R. rhabarbarum L. 줄기에, 70% 에탄올은 R. palmatum L.의 줄기에, 80% 에탄올은 R. undulatum L.의 뿌리에서 페놀을 추출하는데 각각 가장 효과적인 용매농도였다. 또한 추출물리 항산화능을 알기 위해 ${\beta}-carotene$ bleaching inhibition activity와 DPPH radical scavenging activity를 측정하였으며 합성항산화제인 BHT와 비교하여 측정하였다. ${\beta}-Carotene$ bleaching inhibition activity 실험에서 추출물의 농도가 증가하면 대황추출물의 항산화능이 역시 증가하였다. 추출물의 농도가 5mg/ml와 10mg/ml 일때 R. undulatum L. 뿌리추출물과 BHT의 항산화능은 유의적 차이는 없었다$(p{\leq}0.05)$. 그러나 DPPH radical scavenging activity에서 R undulatum L. 뿌리추출물이 0.4 mg/mL 농도 이상에서는 BHT 보다 높은 항산화능을 나타내었다. 결과적으로 대황(R. undulatum L.)의 80% 에탄올 추출물이 천연항산화제로의 사용이 가능하였다. 그러나 합성항산화제인 BHT의 식품에 사용농도를 비교하여 볼 때 대황 추출물의 항산화능이 BHT와 동일하기 위해서는 보다 높은 농도를 필요로 하였다.

Caesalpinia sappan L. is an oriental medicinal plant distributed in the Asia Pacific region including India, Malaysia, and China. The dried heartwood of Caesalpinia sappan has been traditionally used as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug. In this study, the effects of extract methods of C. sappan on contents of total polyphenols and flavonoids, antioxidant activity, and cytotoxic activity were evaluated. As a result, hot water extract from C. sappan (CSWE) significantly exhibited contents of total polyphenols and flavonoids (22.6 mg GAE/g and 14.5 mg QE/g) higher than 70% ethanol extract (CSEE) (17.6 mg GAE/g and 13.2 mg QE/g). However, CSEE showed greater antioxidant activity than CSWE in both DPPH and ABTS. Also, the cytotoxicity of C. sappan against three kinds of cancer cell lines was higher in CSEE than in CSWE. These results show that ethanol extract is a better extract method than hot water method to maintain antioxidant and anti-cancer activities.
