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.

Antioxidative activity of the extract from Caesalpinia sappan L. by various solvent was compared with several commercial antioxidants, using the Rancimat method. AI (antioxidative index; induction period of oil containing extract/induction period of control oil) of all extracts were higher than commercial antioxidants, such as BHA, ${\delta}-tocopherol$ and ascorbic acid. The ethanol extract was fractionated by liquid liquid extraction. Ethyl acetate fraction showed higher AI than the whole crude extract. When comparing POV and TBA value of palm oil and lard containing different level of each fraction, the oxidative stability of ethyl acetate fraction at 200 ppm level on palm oil and lard were similar to that of BHT at 200 ppm level, and better than BHA, ${\delta}-tocopherol$ and control.

We prepared extracts from Ulmus davidiana (root, Korean source; URK) and Ulmus davidiana (bark, Korean source; UBK). URK extracts obtained with all tested solvents showed the highest antioxidant effects on fish oils. Both treatments containing 0.1% (v/v) extract from URK and UBK each showed that peroxide values of 30 meq/kg were maintained for 6 h and levels of 40 meq/kg were apparent for up to 18 h, indicating that antioxidative activity seemed to sustain during all tested time periods. Compared with commercial antioxidants, butanol and methanol extracts diluted to 0.05% (v/v) had similar antioxidative effects. Water and butanol UBK extracts diluted to 0.1% (v/v) both showed the highest antioxidative activities. After addition of metal ions, methanol and butanol URK extracts diluted to 0.1% (v/v) showed enhanced antioxidative activity. UBK ethanol extracts displayed superior antioxidative activity and a constant peroxide value throughout storage. However, in the case of Perilla oil, $\alpha$-tocopherol which is known as a natural antioxidant did not show any antioxidative activity except in the BHT. Methanol and butanol URK extracts diluted to 0.2% (v/v) showed superior antioxidative activities throughout the experiment. A methanolic UBK extract (0.2%, v/v) also had a similarly increased antioxidative effect. In tests involving addition of metal ions to all extracts, the methanolic UBK extract (0.2%, v/v) showed excellent antioxidative activity. When lard was tested, antioxidant levels did not differ significantly among extracts prepared using four different solvents at either 0.05% or 0.1% concentrations (both v/v). Addition of metal ions at levels of 0.05% or 0.1% (w/v) to these extracts had no significant additive effect on oxidation.

Antioxidative activity of various solvent extracts from freeze dried Kimchi was studied during the oxidation process of linoleic acid mixture system. The aqueous model systems were used for the evaluation of antioxidative activity of solvent extracts during the oxidative reaction at 37$^{\circ}C$ by the determination of peroxide value. The linoleic acid mixture for the aqueous model systems was consisted of linoleic acid (64.6%), oleic acid(27.4%), and other acids in ethanolic phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). Water and methanol extracts of Kimchi had a considerable antioxidative activity with the inhibition of peroxides formation during the autoxidation of linoleic acid mixture in aqueous model systems. Antioxidative activity of 75% methanol extract of 7 day-fermented-Kimchi was relatively higher than that of others, however lower than alpa-tocopherol and butylated hydroxyanisol. The antioxidative effect of 75% methanol extract of 7 day-fermented-Kimchi was increased by the its concentration from 0.5% to 2.5% in the oxidation reactions of aqueous model systems.

The Ulmi corex extract was prepared using various solvents to investigate the availability as a natural antioxidant. The extracts were added to lard emulsion and the antioxidant activities were compared. The extract that had a greater antioxidant activity was fractionized. Then the antioxidant activity and substrate specificity of the fraction were examined and optimum concentration of addition was determined. To observe the antioxidative effect of the fraction in vivo, an inhibition rate of lipid peroxidation from which might be derived was measured using a microsome in rat's liver. Among the extracts of Ulmi cortex, the extract from water had the best antioxidant activity, and the addition of 0.05% (w/w) of ethyl acetate fraction showed similar antioxidant activity to a synthetic antioxidant, butylated hydroxyanisole(BHA). Ethyl acetate fraction (0.05%, w/w) also presented the antioxidative effect in lard, soybean oil, palm oil, and com oil. The inhibition of lipid peroxidation in liver microsome showed feater in the ethyl acetate fraction than caffeic acid in both nonenzymatic peroxidation (Fe$\^$++/ascorbate system) and enzymatic peroxidation (Fe$\^$++/-ADP/NaDPH system).

This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidative and chemopreventive effects of the extracts from Polyozellus multiplex, an edible mushroom through in vitro and in vivo assay. Polyozellus multiplex fractions were assayed for its antioxidative effect with colony formation assay. Polyozellus multiplex methanol extract and water fraction showed protective effects against the cytotoxicity of $H_2O_2$. The modifying effects of Polyozellus multiplex methanol extract and water fraction on the induction of carcinogenesis by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) were investigated in Wistar rats. The GSH content was decreased by MNNG treatment but was increased by adding Polyozellus multiplex water fractions. Also the activity of glutathione S-transferase and the superoxide dismutase levels were increased by the treatment of Polyozellus multiplex water fractions more than with MNNG alone. In addition to the Polyozellus multiplex water fraction increased the p53 expression as compared with the value of MNNG alone.

We investigated the antioxidative effects of solvent extracts of doenjang fermented using Bacillus subtilis DJI (DJI doenjang) in vitro. The solvents used for extraction were ethanol, n-hexane, and water. The antioxidative activities of DJI doenjang solvent extracts were measured by estimation of peroxide value, the presence of linoleic acid level, and nitrite scavenging activity, the Rancimat test, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) free-radical generation, in comparison with the commercial antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). The peroxide value of an ethanol extract was lower than those obtained using n-hexane and water extracts. Furthermore, the peroxide value of the ethanol extract was similar to that obtained after BHT treatment. The nitrite scavenging activity was 23.36% after addition of 600 ppm DJI doenjang ethanol extract, and the DPPH free-radical scavenging activity was 19.06% under same condition, which shows that DJI doenjang ethanol extract exhibited lower antioxidative capacities than did BHT. In the Rancimat test, the ethanol extract (11.20 min induction time), n-hexane extract (7.58 min induction time), and water extract (8.26 min induction time) after treatment with 600 ppm DJI doenjang extracts demonstrated longer induction periods than did BHT (6.94 min). These results indicate that DJI doenjang has potential anti-oxidative activity.

This study was investigated on the antioxidant capacity of 80% ethanol extract of lotus root in vitro. The ex-traction yields of 80 % ethanol extract was 9.14%. Lotus root ethanol extract was fractionated by the following: n-hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate and n-butanol. n-Butanol fraction showed the highest ex-traction yield of all fractions. Antioxidative activities of different fractions were examined by l.l-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical generation, the Rancimat test, the nitrite scavenging ac-tivity and the thiobarbituric acid(TBA) method, and compared with the properties of the commercial antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene(BHT). The antioxidative capacity of the ethylacetate fraction was the highest among fractions and its fraction showed higher contents of total polyphenol. Furthermore, the antioxidative capacity of the ethylacetate fraction was similar to that of BHT. In conclusion, these results suggest that lotus root may be a good candidate as a natural antioxidant source.
