The unique sulphated phenolics, gallic acid 3-methyl ether 5-potassium sulphate, isoferulic acid 3-potassium sulphate, and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether 3-potassium sulphate have been isolated from the flowers of Tamarix amplexicaulis Ehrenb. (Tamaricaceae). The hitherto unknown natural phenolic acid, gallic acid 3-methyl ether, together with the known phenolic, gallic acid, gallic acid 4-methyl ether, isoferulic acid, ferulic acid, ellagic acid, and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether have been also separated and characterized. The structures were established by conventional methods, including electrophoretic analysis and confirmed by ESI-MS, $^1H-\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$.

A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the quantitation of ellagic acid in Nymphaea tetragona was developed for the quality control of functional cosmetic ingredient, the extract of N. tetragona. Separation and quantitation were successfully achieved with a Kromasil C18 column ($5{\mu}m$, $250mm{\times}4.6mm$, i.d.) by isocratic elution of a mixture of acetonitrile containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid and water containing 0.03% phosphoric acid at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The UV detector was used for the detection and the wavelength for quantitation was set at 254 nm. The presence of ellagic acid in the extract was determined by comparison of retention time and spiking with authentic standard. Analytical results showed good linearity ($R^2=0.99996$) in relatively wide concentration ranges. The R.S.D. for precision test was less than 3.0%. Recovery of the compound was 98.55~101.72% with R.S.D values less than 4.0%. In conclusion, this method has been successfully applied to the determination of ellagic acid in N. tetragona.

고창 복분자의 개별인정형 건강기능식품 기능성 원료로 개발하기 위하여 지표성분 표준화를 위한 ellagic acid의 분석법 설정과 분석법에 대한 밸리데이션을 실시하였다. 1% formic acid가 첨가된 water와 acetonitrile을 이동상으로 하고 Symmetry$^{(R)}$ (C18, $4.6{\times}250mm$, $5.0{\mu}m$) 칼럼을 사용하여 기울기용리(gradient elution) 방법으로 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 분석법을 확립하고 분석법에 대하여 특이성, 직선성, 정확성과 정밀성 그리고 회수율에 대하여 확인하였다. Ellagic acid의 검량선은 $R^2=0.9996$으로 좋은 선형성을 보였으며 LLOQ와 LOD는 각각 $1{\mu}g/mL$와 $0.3{\mu}g/mL$였다. 일내와 일간 분석에서 상대표준편차(RSD)는 각각 2.28%와 2.84%미만으로 나왔다. 회수율 측정결과에서는 89.17~97.92%로 나왔고, RSD는 0.05~0.14%였다. 그러므로 HPLC를 이용한 ellagic acid의 분석법이 고창 복분자 추출물의 기능성원료 표준화를 위한 지표성분 분석을 위한 적합한 시험법임이 검증되었다. 본 시험법에 따라 분석한 고창 미숙과 복분자 추출물 내의 ellagic acid의 함량은 세 lot를 3번씩 분석하였을 때 약 $1.92{\mu}g/mg$(0.192%)이 나왔으며 RSD값은 2.36% 이하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 확립된 ellagic acid의 분석법이 고창 복분자의 개별인정형 건강기능식품 기능성 원료 개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 본다.

국내산 낙엽성 참나무류인 신갈나무, 상수리나무, 떡갈나무, 졸참나무, 갈참나무 및 굴참나무 수피의 추출성분의 구조를 규명하고 수종 상호간 성분의 특성 및 연관성 등을 조사하였다. 그 결과 신갈나무에서 화합물 2(ellagic acid, 0.03 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 4.59 g), 6 (taxifolin, 3.35 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 20.52 g)을 상수리 나무에서는 화합물 1 (gallic acid, 0.18 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 8.52 g), 5 ((+)-gallocatechin, 0.09 g), 6 (taxifolin, 0.54 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 3.28 g)을 떡갈나무에서는 화합물 1 (gallic acid, 0.38 g), 2 (ellagic acid, 0.11 g) 4 ((+)-catechin, 2.01 g), 5 ((+)-gallocatechin, 0.12 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 0.39 g)을 갈참나무에서는 2 (ellagic acid, 1.51 g), 4 (+)-catechin, 21.91 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 3.91 g)을 졸참나무에서는 2 (ellagic acid, 0.84 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 0.82 g), 6 (taxifolin, 4.02 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 21.50 g)을 굴참나무에서는 1 (gallic acid, 0.24 g), 3 (caffeic acid, 0.05 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 0.32 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 0.65 g)을 분리하여 구조를 규명하였다. 국내산 참나무속 6 수종의 수피에서는 화합물 4 ((+)-catechin)와 7 (glucodistylin) 이 공통적으로 분리되었으며 두 성분 중 함유량이 상대적으로 높은 glucodistylin은 참나무류 수피의 지표성분 으로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

한국산 석류 과피 중 주요 성분으로 함유되어 있는 ellagic acid와 punicalagin에 대한 HPLC 정량법을 확립하였다. 확립된 방법은 다음과 같다. 즉 column은 Agilent Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18($4.6{\times}150mm,\;5{\mu}m$), 이동상은 1% formic acid를 포함하는 순수(A)와 1% formic acid를 함유하는 MeCN(B)을 이용하여(A) 용매가 5%에서 50분 후 100%가 되도록 농도기울기를 주어 용출하며, 이 때 유속은 0.8 ml/min., 검출은 UV 254 nm이다. 석류 과피 중 ellagic acid와 punicalagin 함량을 분석하기 위한 최적 전처리 추출조건을 확립한 결과, 100 ml의 95% ethanol로 5 g의 석류 과피를 3시간 환류추출한 경우 상기 항산화 화합물의 추출효과가 가장 좋았다. 확립된 최적 분석 조건을 이용하여 재배지가 다른 국내산 석류 과피 5종 중 함량을 조사한 결과 ellagic acid의 함량은 해평산이 $15.27{\mu}g/mg$으로 가장 높았으며, punicalagin의 함량은 장성산이 $16.21{\mu}g/mg$으로 가장 높았다. 한편 이들의함량은 산지별로 매우 큰 차이를 보여 한국산 석류피를 건강기능식품 등의 원료로 이용할 경우 산지의 선택이 매우 중요할 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Oxidative stress is an important causative factor in several human chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disorders, mutagenesis, cancer, several neurodegenerative disorders, and the aging process. Phenolics and tannins are reported to be good antioxidants. Anogeissus latifolia (Combretaceae) bark has been used in the Indian traditional systems of medicine for curing a variety of ailments, but scientific validation is not available till date. Hence the present study was undertaken to isolate antioxidant compounds by activity-guided isolation. Inhibtion of diphenyl picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) and Xanthine oxidase along with photochemiluminescence assay were used as bioassay for antioxidant activity. Activity guided isolation was carried out using silica column and the compounds were quantified using HPLC. Ethyl acetate and butanol fraction exhibited potent antioxidant activity. Bioassay-guided isolation led to isolation of ellagic acid (1) and dimethyl ellagic acid (2) as the main active compounds, which along with gallic acid were quantified by HPLC. Thus we conclude that these three major tannoid principles present in A. latifolia, are responsible for the antioxidant potential and possibly their therapeutic potential.

The ethanolic extract of chestnut (Castanea crenata S. et Z., Fagaceae) inner shell (CISE) and one of its components, ellagic acid (EA), were evaluated for their protective effects against 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazine (DPPH) free radical generation and hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative DNA damage in a mammalian cell line. CISE and EA were shown to possess the free radical scavenging effect against DPPH radical generation, significantly. They were also found to strongly inhibit hydrogen peroxide-induced DNA damage from Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cell, assessed by single cell gel electrophoresis assay and 8-hydroxy -2'-deoxy guanosine (8-OH-2'dG) assay. Furthermore, topical application of CISE [$12.5\%$(w/w) cream] and ellagic acid [$1.0\%$(w/w) cream] for 14 days potently inhibited malondialdehyde (MDA) formation of mouse dorsal skin (a marker of lipid peroxidation) induced by ultraviolet B exposure. Therefore, CISE and its component, ellagic acid, may be the useful natural antioxidants by scavenging free radicals, inhibition of lipid peroxidation and protecting oxidative DNA damage when topically applied.

Ellagic acid (EA) is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound in vegetables, nuts, and fruits such as berries. EA has antioxidant, anticancer, anti-allergy, and anti-inflammatory activities. The objectives of this research were to investigate the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles before and after nano-encapsulation of EA in dairy protein and to develop a functional (anti-inflammatory) dairy protein-based beverage containing EA. A particle size analyzer was used to determine the physicochemical and morphological properties. High performance liquid chromatography was used to evaluate the entrapment efficiency of EA. The nanoparticles containing EA were 100 to 200 nm in diameter. The determined poly dispersity index value of 0.3 to 0.4 indicated that the nanoparticles were uniformly distributed with similar size. Zeta-potential values were also similar between the control groups. The entrapment efficiency of EA was nearly 90%. The results indicate the potential for development of nanoparticles containing EA beverage products with anti-inflammatory activity.

We have carried out the antioxidative activity of nuts species for the development of antioxidant from natural products. From our previous report, EtOAc and n-BuOH extracts of acorn hull and chestnut hull were found to have a strong antioxidative activity in various antioxidant experiment. In the continuous study, we isolated several compounds from EtOAc and n-BuOH extracts of acorn hull and chestnut hull by fractionation using column chromatography. The structures of isolated compounds were identified as catechin, naringenin and ellagic acid on the basis of their spectroscopic properties and by comparison of their physical and spectra data with published value. Antioxidative activities of catechin, naringenin and ellagic acid were measured by DPPH, ferric-thiocyanate and Rancimat method.
