본 연구는 식품소재로서의 활용가능성이 높고 생리활성 효과가 우수한 황기분말을 농도별로 첨가(0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%)하여 어묵을 제조하고 품질특성을 측정하였다. 수분함량은 황기분말의 첨가여부에 관계없이 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았으며 pH는 전체적으로 6.75-6.86의 범위를 나타내었다. L값은 황기분말의 첨가량 증가에 따라 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았으나 a값은 높아지고 b값은 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 황기분말 첨가 어묵의 절곡 검사 결과는 모든 시료에서 AA로 측정되어 황기분말의 첨가가 어묵의 유연성에 영향을 미치지 않았으며 기계적 조직감 중 강도(strength)는 황기분말의 첨가량이 증가할수록 높아지는 경향을 나타내었고 검성(gumminess), 응집성 (cohesiveness), 파쇄성(brittleness)은 황기분말 2.0% 첨가구가 가장 높게 측정되었다. 황기분말 첨가 어묵의 관능적특성 중 생선 비린내 정도(fishy smell)는 황기분말의 첨가량 증가에 따라 강도의 정도가 약해졌으며 구수한 냄새의 정도(savory smell)는 황기분말 1.0% 첨가구가 가장 높은 점수를 보였다. 구수한 맛의 정도(savory taste)는 황기분말 1.0% 첨가구가 6.27로 가장 높은 점수를 나타내었으며 느끼한 맛의 정도(oily taste)는 황기분말 첨가량의 증가에 따라 약해지는 것으로 평가되었다. 황기맛의 정도(Astragalus membranaceus taste)는 황기냄새의 정도와 마찬가지로 황기분말의 첨가량이 증가할수록 강하게 평가되었으며 관능적 조직감의 정도는 각 시료간 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 관능적 선호도 평가결과, 황기분말 1% 첨가구가 냄새, 맛, 조직감, 전반적인 선호도 항목에서 가장 우수함을 나타내었다.

This study was carried out to differentiate the origins of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge and A. membranaceus Bunge var. mogholicus Nakai. To identify the variation of the RAPD patterns between domestic and foreign Astragalus species, 40 random primers were applied to ten accessions of A. membranaceus and six accessions of A. membranaceus var. mogholicus genomic DNA, respectively, Ten primers of 40 primers could be used to discriminate the origins and 33 polymorph isms among 44 scored DNA fragments (33 fragments are specific for A. membranaceus and A. membranaceus var. mogholicus) were generated using these primers, 75.0 % of which were polymorphic. Especially, three primers of ten primers, OPA17, OPA11 and OPB11, were useful to differentiate between domestic and foreign Astragalus species. RAPD data from the 10 primers were used for cluster analysis and cluster analysis of RAPD markers showed that the two groups are distinct genetically. Consequently, RAPD analysis was a useful method to discriminate between A. membranaceus and A. membranaceus var. mogholicus.

From the 70% EtOH extract of the roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Leguminosae), fifteen saponins were isolated and identified as astragaloside I (1), isoastragaloside II (2), astragaloside II (3), agroastragaloside I (4), cyclogaleginoside B (5), cycloaraloside A (6), brachyoside B (7), agroastragaloside II (8), astragaloside III (9), astragaloside IV (10), astramembranoside A (11), astramembranoside B (12), cylocanthoside E (13), cyclounifolioside B (14) and azukisaponin V methyl ester (15) by spectroscopic methods. Ten compounds 1 - 3, 5 - 7, 9 - 11 and 14 have cycloastragenol as an aglycon, and four compounds 4, 8 , 12, and 13 have cyclocanthogenin as an aglycon. The hairy roots of A. membranaceus were shown to produce previously unreported cycloartane-type saponins such as agroastragalosides I (4) and II (8) and cycloastragenol $3-O-{\beta}-D-xyloside$ (5), together with the known saponins. This is the first report of these saponins (4, 5, and 8) from the intact plant. Although the occurrence of the oleanane-type triterpene saponin, azukisaponin V methyl ester (15), in Astragalus plants has been demonstrated by others, this is the first report of the azukisaponin V methyl ester (15) from the Astragalus plants.

The seeds of Astragalus sinicus grows in Korea have been used for oriental traditional medicine as the remedies for inflammation. Eight flavonoids were isolated from the Seeds of Astragalus sinicus and studied its anti-inflammatory activity. Some flavonoid compounds showed significant nitrogen monoxide(NO) production inhibitory activity in IFN-${\gamma}$, LPS stimulated RAW 264.7 cell. There compounds also showed significant antioxidative in DPPH assay. (omitted)

Two soyasaponins were isolated from the aerial parts of Astragalus tribuloides Del. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic and chemical methods. In addition, ursolic acid, ${\beta}-sitosterol\;{\beta}-D-glucoside$ and isorhamnetin 3-O-glucoside were isolated and identified by comparing their mp, spectral and chromatographic data with those of authentic samples. This is the first report of screening and isolation of the chemical constituents of this species of genus Astragalus.

Physiological activities of hot water extract and solvent fractions isolated from Astragalus membranaceus were examined and the antioxidative, fibrinolytic, thrombin inhibitory and a-glucosidase inhibitory activity were measured. The hot water extract of Astragalus membranaceus was fractionated into hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water fractions, and each of these fractions was individually assayed. The antioxidative activities of ethyl acetate and chloroform fractions were 89.96% and 87.36%, respectively. Using the fibrin plate method, only the hot water extract showed a plasmin activity of 0.41 units/ml. The thrombin inhibitory activity of the ethyl acetate fraction was the highest with a value of 82.73%. The hot water extract displayed a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 64.91%. In conclusion, the hot water extract and the ethyl acetate fraction can be used as materials for the development of biofunctional foods to prevent cardiovascular diseases.

This study was conducted to determine the contents of astragalosides in Astragalus membranaceus. The total astragaloside content ($1701{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) of 2 year-cultivated astragalus was the highest among the variously cultivated astragalus plants. Upon an increase in cultivation time, the average value of the total astragaloside content decreased (from $1650{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ to $645{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$). Especially, the content of astragaloside decreased rapidly. Comparison between the top and subterranean parts of harvested astragalus plants showed that as the cultivation time increased, the astragaloside content of the top part decreased. On the other hand, the subterranean part demonstrated the opposite pattern. The astragaloside content of the top root increased compared to that in the lateral root (from $1.9{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ to $33.4{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$). Further, the content of astragaloside increased in the top root as the cultivation time increased.

This study was conducted to determine the contents of phenolic compounds and astragalosides in Astragalus membranaceus. Between the phenolic compound groups, flavonoids compounds (51.13%) had higher average concentrations than the phenolic acids groups. Among the 30 phenolic compounds, quercetin ($353.11{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) provided the highest concentrations. According to different cultivation year, 3-year-cultivated Astragalus ($2612.57{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) showed the highest concentrations of phenolic compounds. According to different harvest days, 6/5 harvesting Astragalus ($2615.80{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) showed the highest concentrations of phenolic acids. Comparison between the top and subterranean parts of harvested Astragalus plants cultivated for 2 years, 3 years, and 5 years showed big difference of total phenolic compounds in concentrations. Further, the top part had higher amounts of the total phenolic compounds than the subterranean part among all Astragalus. This tendency was similar to those of the top root and lateral root. The concentration of the phenolic compounds in the top root was higher than that of the lateral root.

The six polysaccharide fractions were prepared by chromatographic procedure from the hot water extracts of the aboveground parts of Astragalus membranaceus. These six polysaccharides from aboveground parts of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge were tested for gut-mucosal immune activity and acute toxicity. In a view of molecular weight, the six fractions were estimated to be 75000, 88000, 129000 and 345000 Da, respectively. Component sugar analysis indicated that these fractions were mainly consisted of galactose (46.3 ~ 11.8%) and arabinose (35.4 ~ 9.9%) in addition to glucose, rhamnose, fucose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, glucuronic acid and galacturonic acid. Among the six major purified polysaccharides, AMA-1-b-PS2 showed highest bone merrow cell proliferation and lymphocyte of Peyer's patch stimulating activity. It may be concluded that intestinal immune system modulating activity of aboveground parts from Astragalus membranaceus Bunge is caused by polysaccharides having a polygalacturonan moiety with neutral sugars such as arabinose and galactose. In single oral dose toxicity study, no differences were observed between control and treated groups in clinical signs. The results indicated that lethal dose 50 ($LD_{50}$) of water extracts from Astragalus membranaceus-aboveground parts was found to be higher than 5000 mg/kg/day in this experiment. From the above results, we may suggest that Astragalus membranaceus-aboveground parts might have useful as a safe material for functional food and pharmaceutics.
