This study investigated the antioxidant activity of functional beverage concentrates containing herbal medicine extracts (FBCH) using various antioxidant assays, such as 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, and reducing power assay. The total polyphenolic content of FBCH (81.45 mg/100 g) was higher than Ssanghwa tea (SHT, 37.56 mg/100 g). The antioxidant activities of FBCH showed 52.92% DPPH and 55.18% ABTS radical scavenging activities at 100 mg/mL, respectively. FBCH showed significantly higher antioxidant activities compared to the SHT (DPPH, 23.43%; ABTS, 22.21%; reducing power optical density; 0.23, P<0.05). In addition, intracellular reactive oxygen species generation significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner following FBCH treatment. These results suggest that the addition of herbal medicine extract contributes to the improved functionality of beverage concentrates.

Free radical scavengers or quenching agents for reactive oxygen species (ROS) present in consumable fruits, vegetables, and beverages have received considerable attention as potential antioxidants, and thus uses for treatment of several human diseases. In this study, grapevine shoot extract (GSE) containing high concentration of resveratrol and viniferine was evaluated for antioxidant potential and inhibition of pro-inflam-matory mediator production. Utilizing 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity and xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibition assay the GSE showed inhibitory effects of DPPH radical scavenging and XOD activity with the $IC_{50}$/ values of 34.5 and 155 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, respectively. In addition, GSE also exhibited the inhibition of prostaglandin E$_2$ (PGE$_2$) and nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse macrophage RAW264.7 cells with the $IC_{50}$/ value of 6.4 and 14.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, respectively. This result suggests that grapevine shoot extract has the potential activity as a natural antioxidant or antiinflammatory agent.

Crude extract of young dangyuja (Citrus grandis Osbeck) fruit was investigated for its antioxidant activity as measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity. Among the samples, including 4 Citrus species and various solvent-extracted-fractions of young dangyuja fruit, the water-extracted fraction (WF) and butanol-extracted fraction (BF) showed the greatest DPPH free radical scavenging activity. WF and BF were further examined for their antioxidant activities by three different in vitro assays. The cell viability tests using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction assay showed that both fractions significantly reduced $H_2O_2$-induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells dose-dependently. Generation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) was also reduced in cells pretreated with both fractions. In addition, BF showed a higher level of lipid peroxidation inhibitory capacity than WF in $H_2O_2$-treated HepG2 cells. Taken together, these results indicate that young dangyuja fruit can be used as an easily accessible source of natural antioxidants.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant properties and sensory qualities of citron peel tea, and to determine the optimum ratio of citron peel powder for its preparation. Yuza peel powders were prepared with citron peel tea at weight 2 and 3 g, respectively. Then, color values(L-value, redness, and yellowness), total phenol content, total antioxidant activity, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory characteristics were measured in the tea samples. The pH of the citron peel tea decreased with increasing preparation temperature. And as the amount of citron peel powder increased, total phenol content, antioxidant capacity, and radical scavenging activity increased. The level of total phenolics in the tea had a higher correlation with total antioxidant capacity($r^2$ = 0.731). Depending on the level of added yuza powder, significant differences(p < 0.05) were shown for aroma, color, and overall acceptability however, there were no significant differences in sourness and bitterness.

Background: In this study, we have investigated the effect of Korean red ginseng (KRG) extracts on the production of TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-8 in human keratinocytes. Also, to examine the antioxidative effect of red ginseng extracts, free radical scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in human dermal fibroblasts was measured. Methods: To investigate the effect of KRG in atopic dermatitis, we measured the level of TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-8 secretion in LPS-stimulated human keratinocytes after the treatment of KRG extracts using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Anti-oxidative activity was investigated by measuring 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and SOD activity. Results: The stimulation of human keratinocytes with KRG extracts shifted the LPS-induced cytokine secretion toward a more immunosuppressive response. KRG dose-dependently decreased TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-8 production in HaCaT cells and a significant inhibition of TNF-${\alpha}$ was shown when cells were treated with 500 and $1,000{\mu}g/ml$ of KRG extracts. Additionally, KRG extracts showed DPPH radical scavenging and SOD activity in a dose-dependent manner. Particularly, SOD activities of concentrations higher than $60{\mu}g/ml$ of KRG extracts were significantly different in human dermal fibroblast cells. Conclusion: Based on this study, KRG extracts may be a useful immunosuppressive agent in the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study was performed to evaluate antioxidant activity of the Artemisia asiatica Nakai and Moringa oleifera Lam mixture extract. Mixture extracts were manufactured by concentration and compared with a single extract (only the Artemisia asiatica Nakai mixture and only the Moringa oleifera Lam mixture). The experiments conducted Total polyphenol measurements, Total flavonoid measurements, DPPH radical scavenging activty, ABTS radical scavenging activty and LDH assay. The LDH assay assessment shows that all extracts are cells compared to controls. The toxicity was weak. Finally, The antioxidant capacity was rated higher than mixture extract of a single extract. Also, the optimized mixture was determined AM5 (Artemisia asiatica Nakai mixture: Moringa oleifera Lam mixture = 3:1). For extracts of AM5, Total phenol and flavonoid contents were 271.769±18.087 mg/g and 45.384±5.026 mg/g. and DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity were 70.8±6.496% and 77.1±9.634%. Therefore, it is expected that the value of the extract will increase as it increases its antioxidant activity if it is manufactured according to the appropriate ratio.
