Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common skin disease in children and a characteristic chronically recurrent form of dermatitis with a hereditary tendency, affecting infants and may extend to the childhood or th the adult age. Environmental factors, stress, and foodstuffs such as milk, egg may cause atopic dermatitis. Nc/Nga mice were used as an animal model for human atopic dermatitis. The divided by 4group such as normal group, BMAC group, FK506 group, MR group for this study raised in conventional conditions. To investigate effect of Chamomile German on atopic dermatitis in NC/Nga mice, the serum IgE and IgG1 level were measured while the severity degree of the skin lesion was examined by the naked eyes of two volunteers who were unaware of the treatment status. The results were the followings. 1. The score on the severity degree of skin dermatitis in FK 506 and MR group was lower than that in control group. 2. The serum IgE level in control group was higher 25% than that in normal group. 3. The serum level of IgE in FK506 and MR group compares to control group was decreased. 4. The serum IgG1 level was decreased more than 3.5 times in FK506 compared to control group while MR group had significantly less the serum IgG1 than control group. From the above results, treatment of Chamomile German oil had the effect on atopic dermatitis in NC/Nga mice. If scientific researches on aroma oil are performed in various way, aroma oil will be used to cure skin dermatitis as a alternative therapy in the future.

The aroma components of german chamomile tea in Europe and kukwha (Chrysanthemum boreale Makino) tea in Korea belonging to genus chrysanthemum were analyzed and compared. The volatile components of chamomile tea and kukwha tea were collected by a simultaneous steam distillation-solvent extraction method (SDE). The extracted components were analyzed gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Forty-six compounds, including cubebene(14.59%), ${\beta}$-elememe(4.88%) and ${\delta}$-cadinol(1.54%) were identified in chamomile tea. Forty-five compounds including santalol(6.25%), bomyl acetate(3.47%), farnesene(3.37%), 1,8-nonadiene (2.80%), caryophyllene oxide(2.77%) and thymol (2.16%) were identified in kukwha tea. Twenty-two compounds including 4-terpineol, ${\alpha}$-terpineol, thymol, phenylacetaldehyde, V-terpinene were found in both samples.

Purpose: This study was aim to examine the effect of extract from several herbs on wound treatment which are grown naturally in Namwon province. Methods: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to 6 of 2 group: control group (C, n=6), experimental group (E, n=6). Rats in E group had 3 sessions (everyday) for 4 days or 8 days of the extract treatment which was composed of German chemomile, Teatree and Lavender (CTL). Results: CTL extract on wound-induced mice showed significantly the increase of wound treatment rate (WTR), epidermal gap (EP) and collagen density (CD), compared with control. Conclusion: CTL extract may be a putative resources for cure or treatment of wound.

미용 향장분야에서 많이 사용되고 있고, 소염작용, 진통효과, 면역증진작용, 강장작용이 있다고 알려진 저먼 카모마일, 라벤더, 샌달우드, 호호바 등의 혼합 아로마 오일을 NC/Nga 생쥐의 피부에 도포하여 생쥐의 피부조직내 염증세포와 mast cell 의 변화를 파악하여 아토피 피부염에 대한 효과를 검증하였다. 그 결과 아로마 혼합오일인 CLS 가 아토피 피부염의 주증상인 표피세포의 각질화와 mast cell의 감소에 영향을 주어 아토피 피부염에 효과가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
