The acaricidal activity of extracts of Gleditsia japonica var. koraiensis, Camellia sinensis, Cinnamomum cassia, Lantana camara and their mixtures against the tea red spider mite, Tetranychus kanzawai was evaluated. Treatments with mixtures 3 and 1 were effective against the adult females of T. kanzawai and yielded 82.0% and 77.3% adulticidal activities at 7 days after treatment, respectively. Treatment with mixture 2 revealed 68.0% adulticidal activity. Generally, the acaricidal activity of the single treatment of each plant extract was lower than the mixtures. The adult females of T. kanzawai treated with mixtures 3 and 1 produced only 24.0~29.6% as many eggs as control females did. The residue of the plant extracts tested had low adulticidal activity (16.7~31.3% at 7 days after treatment). All the plant extracts tested exhibited no remarkable toxic effect to the eggs of T. kanzawai. Treatments of mixtures 3 and 1 were effective against nymphs of T. kanzawai and led to emergence rates of 16.7 and 22.0%, respectively. These results suggest that mixtures 3 and 1 might be used for the control of T. kanzawai in tea fields.

By the 505 chromotest which utilized Escherichia bolt PQ 37, Korean medicinal plants had been screened to Investigate the antimutagenic effect to aflatoxin B1(AFBl). Ikmocho(IMC, Leonurus sibiricus L.) was extracted with hot water. The extract was not found to be mutagenic in the Salmonella mutation test with or without metabolic activation, and the extract was showed to possess the antimutagenic properties towards AFB1-induced metation. The mutagenicity of AFB1 was inhibited by methanol soluble fracstion (IMC-MS) in dose-dependent. However, water-soluble fraction exhibited comutagenic activity. The greatest inhibitory effect of IMC-MS on AFB1 mutagenicity occurred when IMC-MS was first incubated, AFB1 followed by a second incubation with the cells and 59 mixture. Also lower inhibition was occurred when S9 mixtures were first incubated, with IMC-MS followed by a second incubation with AFBI. The results of the sequential incubation study support the probability that one mechanism of inhibition could involve the formation of chemical complex between IMC-MS and AFB1 rather than deactivation of S9 enzyme.

A proteolytic enzyme was extracted from Sarcodon aspratus (Berk) S. Ito by percolation method. Proteolytic activity of the extracted proteolytic enzyme (SAP) was compared with several digestives containing proteolytic enzymes. Potency of SAP was higher than that of the other digestives except for protease. The optimum pH ranse of SAP was similar to that of pancveatin and protease. SAP was more stable than pancreatin and protease under various temperature, alkaline pH, and metal ions. Bovine serum albumin hydrolysing activity of SAP was equivalent to that of pancreatin and protease in small intestine of rats. SAP demonstrated lower adsorption to antacids than pancreatin and protease. Among the mixtures of SAP and several antacids, magnesium oxide-SAP showed the highest proteolytic activity.

The effect of ginseng saponin on chick embryonic dorsal root ganglia organ culture and brain, spinal cord, muscle dissociation cultures was studied. The fiber outgrowth in explanted chick embryonic dorsal root ganglia was markedly induced by water and alcohol extracts of ginseng, total ginseng saponin, protopanaxadiol and protopanaxatriol glycosides as well as ginsenosides R/sub b1/, R/sub d/, R/sub 0/+R/sub a/+R/sub b1/, and R/sub b2/+R/sub c/+R/sub e/ mixtures. The life span of the cultured chick embryonic dorsal root ganglia and potentiation of nerve cell density were also observed with all of these ginseng saponins. The effect of ginseng saponin on chick embryonic dorsal root ganglia organ culture was more marked in the absence of the chick embryonic extract which was known to contain nerve growth factor-like material in the culture media. However, the ginseng saponin did not influence the cultured central nervous system such as brain and spinal cord cells and cultured skeletal muscle cells with respect to the morphological changes, maturation and life span of these cells.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of leek and garlic extract juice and powder against Escherichia coli, Salmonella enteritidis, and Staphylococcus aureus in a single strain and a mixed strains system. Garlic juice and powder showed higher antimicrobial activity against Sta. aureus than that of E. coli or S. enteritidis. The antimicrobial activities of the leek and garlic powders decreased with increasing temperature and time, but stabilized at various pHs. The antimicrobial effects of mixtures of various ratios between the leek and garlic extracts increased with an increase in garlic extract content. No synergistic effects by the leek and garlic mixtures were observed. In a mixed strains system, the antimicrobial effects of leek and garlic powder were similar to those in a single strain system.

Objectives Previous animal studies have shown that mixtures of Cynanchum wilfordii and Phlomis umbrosa extract (IPLUS-CWPU) increases femur length and insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) secretion. IPLUS-CWPU may thus be a promising ingredient in functional foods aimed at growing child's height. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of IPLUS-CWPU on height growth in children with short stature. Methods For this purpose, we recruited 90 children aged 4 to 12 years who had heights ranging from the 5th to 25th percentiles of Korean children's growth curve and randomized to either the IPLUS-CWPU or the placebo group. Results The IPLUS-CWPU group showed a significant increase in the change of the height growth compared to the placebo group after 20 weeks of administration (p=0.02). The height growth velosity also showed a statistically significant difference in the test group compared to the placebo group at 10 weeks (p=0.04). The IGF-1 levels showed a tendency to increase in the IPLUS-CWPU group (p=0.08). Moreover, the IPLUS-CWPU significantly increased IGF-1/IGFBP-3 ratio (p=0.02). However, there were no significant differences in blood biochemical parameters including growth hormone, bone age, thyroid stimulating hormone, and osteocalcin levels. Conclusions In conclusion, the data of this trial indicate that IPLUS-CWPU is effective and safe, generally well-tolerated without severe adverse events, in the treatment of children with short stature over a 20 weeks period.

The aim of this study was to study the quantitative analysis of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract fermented with Paecilomyces japonica, Ganoderma lucidum, honey or Nuruk. The amounts of dry on loss were measured and the quantitative analysis of glycyrrhizic acid was performed by high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC). HPLC method was performed on C18 column ($250\;mm\;{\times}\;4.6\;mm$, $5\;{\mu}m$, RS tech) using gradient solvent mixtures of water-acetonitrile with photodiode array detector (254 nm). The flow rate was $1.0\;m{\ell}/min$. Retention time of glycyrrhizic acid was about 23.96 min and linearity of calibration was $R^2$=0.9998. Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract (control) was $5.048\;{\pm}\;0.14$; Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract fermented with Paecilomyces japonica (SDT) was $1.975\;{\pm}\;0.07$; Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract fermented with Ganoderma lucidum (SYT) was $2.676 \;{\pm}\;0.07$; Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract fermented with honey (SST) was $5.191\;{\pm}\;0.06$; Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhizae Radix extract fermented with Nuruk (SNT) was $5.305\;{\pm}\;0.34$, respectively. Contents of glycyrrhizic acid in SDT and SYT were decreased but that in SST and SNT was increased when compared to control.

This study had been done for the investigation of the effect of Vitis vinifera extract(V), Schisandra chinensis extract (S), Taraxacum officinale extract (T), Gardenia jasminoides extract (G), Angelica acutiloba extract (A) and Paeonia japonica extract (P), and their mixtures on the antioxidant and ethanol oxidation system which was induced by Lieber-DeCarli ethanol liquid diet. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into eight groups: ethanol diet (ED), normal diet (ND), ED+V (100 mg/kg/day), ED+S, ED+T, ED+G, ED+A and ED+P (300 mg/kg/day). We studied the effect on alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) after herbal extracts administration for 6 weeks in rats induced by Lieber-DeCarli ethanol liquid diet. The differences in ADH and ALDH activity of the rats treated with herbal extracts and ED group were not significant. Phase I enzyme activity was found to be significantly higher in the ED+V than the ED group. Phase II enzymes (glutathione-S-transferase, phenol sulfatransferase) activities were found to be higher in the herbal extracts than the ED group. Herbal extracts not only reduced ethanol-induced elevation of level malondialdehyde but also protected against ethanol-induced decrease of reduced glutathione, gluthione reducatse, glutathione peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities. Therefore, they can be utilized as a health functional food or new drug candidate for fatty liver and hepatotoxicity which was induced by chronic alcohol consumption.

In the present study, antioxidant activities and tyrosinase inhibition of Perilla frutescens, Houttuynia cordata and Camellia sinensis extracts and the extract mixtures (PHC) were investigated. PHC showed 80.2% and 98.0% of free radical scavenging activity in DPPH and ABTS analysis, respectively, and 50% tyrosinase inhibition in $1000{\mu}g/mL$ concentration. HaCaT cells did not show cell toxicity in $100{\mu}g/mL$ of the PHC. Furthermore, HaCaT cell viability by co-culture with extract H. cordata was increased more than 10% compared with untreated cells. However, the cell viability was decreased in $500{\mu}g/mL$ of the extract C. sinensis and the PHC. These results suggested that about $100{\mu}g/mL$ concentration of the PHC showed proper tyrosinase inhibitory effect and antioxidant activities. The PHC could be used as multifunctional cosmeceutical agents.
