In the course of screening for antioxidant compounds by measuring the radical scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), a total extract of the twigs of Stewartia koreana (Theaceae) was found to show potent antioxidant activity. Subsequent activity-guided fractionation of the methanolic extract led to the isolation of six phenolic compounds, ampelopsin (1), catechin (2), proanthocyanidin-A2 (3), fraxin (4), (2R, 3R)-taxifolin-3-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (5), and (2S, 3S)-taxifolin-3-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (6), as active principles. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic studies. Compounds 1-6 were isolated for the first time from this plant. Among them, three compounds 1-3 showed the significant antioxidative effects on DPPH, and riboflavin originated superoxide quenching activity. In riboflavin-nitrobluetetrazolium (NBT)-light system, compound 1 showed better superoxide quenching activity than vitamin C.

장미과 식물(에탄을 추출)의 항산화력을 측정하기 위하여 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) 자유 라디칼 생성 시스템을 이용하여 하였다. 또한 산화 환원 과정을 통하여 피부의 과잉 색소 생성에 관련된 멜라닌 생합성 과정의 조절 가능성을 조사하였다. 장미과 식물중에서 Prunus sargentii, Rubus coreanus, Chaenomeles sinensis, Photinia glabra와 Pyrus pyrifolia은 생합성 과정에서 dopa [3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl) alanine]를 도파크롬으로 변환시켜 주는 tyrosinase 저해 효과를 나타내었다. MTT 실험법은 장미과 에탄올 추출물의 사람 섬유아세포에 미치는 독성정도를 실험하기 위해 사용되었다. 장미과 식물중 특히 Prunus sargentii의 껍질, Phorinia glabra의 껍질과 나무 그리고 Chaenomeles sinenis의 잎, 껍질, 나무 모든 부분에서 mushroom tyrosinase에 대해 $100{\;}{\mu}g/mL$에서 50\%$ 이상의 저해 활성을 보였으며, $10{\;}{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 강한 라디칼 소거 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 이들 추출물은 사람 섬유아 세포에 대해 높은 생존율을 나타냄으로써 멜라닌 형성 과정을 조절할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

식물성 성분 중에서 생리활성 인자를 탐색할 목적으로 솔잎의 수용성 추출물에 의한 항산화 활성을 DPPH법, thiocyanate법, TBA법 및 microsome 생 체 막 지 질 과산화물 생성정도를 TBARS법으로 측정 하고, 총 폴리페놀 함량을 측정하였다. 솔잎 수용성 추출물의 총 폴리페놀 화합물 함량은 1.61%이었으며, DPPH 측정법에서는 짙은 자색의 탈색되는 정도로 나타내는 전자 공여능이 솔잎 수용성 추출물의 0.1% 농도에서 BHT와 비슷한 수준으로 항산화 활성이 높게 나타났다. 간 microsome을 이용한 생체막 지질 과산화 억제정도는 솔잎 수용성 추출물의 0.1% (67.7%)>0.05% (63.1%)>0.01%(28.2%) 순으로 농도에 비례하여 증가하였다. Linoleic acid 산화 실험계를 이용한 thiocyanate법에서는 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%의 농도에서 모두 반응 7일째까지 대조구에 비해 매우 강한 항산화 활성을 보였으며, TBA법에서는 반응 6일째까지 는 0.1%>0.05%>0.01%의 순으로 농도 증가에 따라 항산화 활성도 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 솔잎 수용성 추출물 중에는 in vitro 항산화 실험에서 항산화 활성을 나타내는 생리활성 성분이 존재하는 것으로 볼 수 있으므로 천연 항산화제로서의 가능성을 시사하였다.

Four diarylheptanoids oregonin, hirsutanonol, 1,7-bis- (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-heptane-5-O-$\beta$-D-xylopyanoside and 1,7-bis-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-heptane-5-0-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside isolated from Alnus hirsuta were evaluated for their antioxidative effects with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and lipid peroxidation generation system mediated by addition of $H_2O$$_2$and/or Fe$^{2+}$ to rat liver homogenate. All these diarylheptanoids showed significant inhibitory activities against the DPPH radical and demonstrated strong activities in preventing the lipid peroxidation induced by $H_2O$$_2$.>.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to estimate the antioxidant activity of water extract of Cnidii Fructus (CF) and Torilis Fructus (TF) in Leydig cells. Methods : Free radical scavenging activity of CF and TF against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was determined spectrophotometrically. We investigated the effect of CF and TF in Leydig cells by MTT assay. The protective effects of CF and TF against hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress in Leydig cells. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase activity assays were performed in Leydig cells. Results : The results showed that CF scavenged DPPH radical in a dose-dependent manner by up to 81.2%, TF scavenged DPPH radical in a dose-dependent manner by up to 63.8%. CF showed cell viability as 121.0, 132.7, 126.6% in 5, 10, $100{\mu}g/ml$ concentrations. TF showed cell viability as 127.5, 111.8% in 5, $100{\mu}g/ml$ concentraions, respectively. The hydrogen peroxide-induced cytotoxicity of Leydig cells were protected to 86.3% by CF at concentration of $10{\mu}g/ml$ and protected to 83.5% by TF at concentration of $100{\mu}g/ml$. Both CF and TF at all concentrations, SOD activity was not significantly changed. Catalase activity was significantly increased at 10, $100{\mu}g/ml$ concentrations of CF, respectively. TF's catalase activity showed no significant difference from that of the control. Conclusions : These results suggest that CF, as an antioxidant, protects Leydig cells in hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. know that "Kwangjebikeup" played a role in settlement and spreading of foreign knowledge to civilians.

The radical scavenging activity of methanol extracts of seaweeds and their active compounds, alginic acid, fucoidan and phloroglucinol, were investigated under in vitro. Among methanol extracts of seaweeds (sea mustard, sea tangle, seaweed papulosa, fusiforme, sea lettuce, purple laver and chlorella), seaweed papulosa and sea tangle showed strong scavenging activities of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$). In addition, under in vitro, the scavenging activities on DPPH radical of alginic acid and fucoidan, which are active compounds of brown algae, and phloroglucinol, the active compound from Ecklonia species, were evaluated and compared. Fucoidan and phloroglucinol showed strong DPPH scavenging effect, in particular, phloroglucinol had strongest activity among the active compounds. On the other hand, alginic acid did not exert DPPH scavenging activity. From the present study, we could confirm the antioxidative activity of seaweeds and its active compounds.

Cassumunar ginger (Zingiber montanum Roxb.) was grown in the experimental field at the Department of Horticulture, Kasetsart University, Thailand. The antioxidant activity and volatile oil content of rhizomes of varying age were measured. Antioxidant activity as determined using the DPPH (diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method differed significantly between samples of different ages. Antioxidant activity and rhizome age were positively correlated, with 22-month old rhizomes showing the highest radical scavenging activity (79.19%). Volatile oil was obtained by steam distillation of fresh rhizomes. The extraction yield of volatile oil was highest in l6-month old rhizomes (13.02 mL/kg). GC-FID data indicated the presence of three major compounds, sabinene, terpinen-4-ol and (E)-1-(3',4'-dimethylphenyl) butadiene (DMPBD), however none of the major components were correlated with the age of rhizome.

Bacillus licheniformis Bl을 이용하여 청국장발효를 거쳐 보존성이 높은 분말청국장을 제조하였다. 분말청국장의 다양한 생리활성 물질 중에서도 항산화물질의 존재여부와 그 효괴를 결정하였다. 분말청국장을 증류수로 추출하여, Sephadex G-75 Bel filtration chromatography 작업을 수행한 후, 390 nm에서 광범위한 분자량의 갈변물질을 검출 할 수 있었다. 1,1 diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)를 이용하여 갈변물질의 항산화도를 결정하였다. 분자량이 큰 갈변물질의 항산화도는 매우 약하였으나, 분자량이 작은 갈변물질에서는 10-20%의 항산화능이 결정되었다. 체내에서는 분자량이 작은 갈변물질의 흡수가 더 유리할 수 있다. 분말청국장의 항산화물질 추출에 ethanol을 이용했을때는 60.1%, methanol을 이용했을 때는 58.97%의 높은 항산화능을 보여주어, 증류수로 추출했을 때에 비해 휠씬 효 율적이었다. 또한 분말컹국장을 ethanol 5%이상 되게끔 녹였을 때 항산화도가 가장 컸다. 본 분말청국장에 존재하는 항산화물질은 항산화능이 우수하였는 데, 앞으로 안정성이 확보된다면, 식용류, 주류에 첨가하는 천연 항산화물질로 개발할 수 있을 것이다.

The antioxidant activity of Artemisia iwayomogi was determined by measuring the radical scavenging effect on 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. The methanol extract of A. iwayomogi showed strong antioxidant activity, and thus fractionated with several solvents. The antioxidant activity potential of the individual fraction was in the order of ethyl acetate > n-butanol > water > chloroform > n-hexane fraction. The ethyl acetate and n-butanol soluble fractions exhibiting strong antioxidant activity were further purified by repeated sitica get and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Antioxidant chlorogenic acid was isolated as one of the active principles from the n-butanol fraction, together with the inactive components, 1octacosanol, scopoletin, scopolin, apigenin $7, 4^{I}$-di-O-methylether, luteolin $6, 3^{I}$-di-O-methylether (jaceosidin), apigenin methylether (genkwanin), 2, 4-dihydroxy-6-methoxyacetophenone $4-O-{\beta}-$D-glucopyranoside and quebrachitol. The antioxidant activity of chlorogenic acid was comparable to that of L-ascorbic acid, which is a well known antioxidant.
