한국담배인삼공사에서 제조된 홍삼제품류 9종에 대한 유효성분함량의 품질관리 연구 일환으로 조사포닌, vanillin-$H_2SO_4$ 비색법에 의한 총사포닌 및 HPLC에 의한 개별 ginsenoside의 함량을 조사하였다. 홍삼을 분말형태로 가공한 의료용분말, 삼분, 타브렛 및 캡슐제품은 사포닌함량, PD/PT 사포닌의 함유비율, ginsenoside의 함량과 조성패턴이 거의 유사하였다. 그러나 홍삼을 추출하여 그 농축물을 인스턴트 제품화시킨 정분, 삼정, 삼정차, 삼정환 및 삼차는 총사포닌함량뿐 아니라 PD/PT사포닌의 함유비율, ginsenoside의 함량과 조성패턴이 상이하였다. 따라서 홍삼제품류별로 사포닌함량과 패턴을 표준화시키고 원료삼으로부터 최종제품까지 제조과정별 품질관리를 수행함으로서 사포닌패턴과 함량이 균일한 제품생산이 가능할 것으로 믿어진다.

Streptozotocin-유도 당뇨병 모델을 이용하여 흑삼의 혈당강하작용에 대한 효과를 연구하고 증포과정에 따른 ginsenoside의 조성 변화를 분석하였다. 증포별 ginsenoside의 정량분석 결과, 증포 횟수가 증가할수록 조사포닌의 총량과 대부분의 ginsenoside는 줄어든 반면 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$ 함량 및 PD/PT 비율은 증가하는 경향을 보였는데, 이러한 조성은 다른 인삼제품과는 차별성 있는 특징이다. 또한, streptozotocin-당뇨병 유발쥐를 이용한 모델실험에서 흑삼추출물의 투여는 고혈당 준위(300 mg/dL이상)를 정상 수준(102 mg/dL)으로 감소시켰으며, 혈당 수준의 감소는 glycolysis나 HMT shunt 및 지방산 합성에 관여하는 glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, acetyl CoA carboxylase 등의 효소의 활성증대에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 결과는 흑삼추출물의 유의적인 혈당강하 효과를 입증하며 이에 따라 신약이나 식이보조제의 항당뇨물질로서의 이용가능성을 시사한다.

This study was performed to provide basic information that can be used to differentiate Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng CA. Meyer) berry and seed from American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) seed. Total ginsenoside contents of Korean ginseng berry, Korean ginseng seed, and American ginseng seed were 9.09, 3.30, and 4.06%, respectively. Total ginsenoside content of Korean ginseng berry was about 2.2 to 2.7 times higher than those of Korean ginseng seed and American ginseng seed. Particularly ginsenoside Re content of 4-year cultivated Korean ginseng berry (5.99%) was about 3.6 to 5.4 times higher than that of 4-year cultivated Korean ginseng seed (1.65%) and 4-year cultivated American ginseng seed (1.10%). The contents of total ginsenoside and ginsenoside Re of Korean ginseng berry were about 4.8 and 28 times higher, respectively, than those of 4-year cultivated Korean ginseng root. In general the contents of total ginsenoside and ginsenoside Re of Korean ginseng berry were significantly higher than those of Korean ginseng seed and American ginseng seed.

This study was carried out to investigate the correlation between root diameter and ginsenoside composition of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer cultivar Yunpoong. Dry matter ratio of main root was a little higher than that of lateral root and fine root, and that was higher by the increase of root diameter in the same root parts. Total ginsenosides composition of main and lateral roots increased by the decrease of root diameter, especially in lateral root. Similar resulted in fine root, but there was no significant difference where root diameter was below 2.5 mm. Except for ginsenoside-$Rg_1$, other ginsenosides component, PDs, PTs and total ginsenosides had highly negative correlation with the root diameter within whole root, main root+lateral root and lateral root+fine root, while $Rg_1$ had positive correlation with the root diameter.

The result of USRG-12 indicated that ultrasonication-processed ($100^{\circ}C$, 12 h) red ginseng extracts had the highest amount of ginsenosides Rg3 (0.803%), Rg5 (0.167%), and Rk1 (0.175%).

Panax ginseng is one of the most important medicinal plants in Asia. Triterpene saponins, known as ginsenosides, are the major pharmacological compounds in P. ginseng. The present study was conducted to evaluate the changes in ginsenoside composition according to the foliation stage of P. ginseng cultured in a hydroponic system. Among the three tested growth stages (closed, intermediate, and opened), the highest amount of total ginsenoside in the main and fine roots was in the intermediate stage. In the leaves, the highest amount of total ginsenoside was in the opened stage. The total ginsenoside content of the ginseng leaf was markedly increased in the transition from the closed to intermediate stage, and increased more slowly from the intermediate to opened leaf stage, suggesting active biosynthesis of ginsenosides in the leaf. Conversely, the total ginsenoside content of the main and fine roots decreased from the intermediate to opened leaf stage. This suggests movement of ginsenosides during foliation from the root to the leaf, or vice versa. The difference in the composition of ginsenosides between the leaf and root in each stage of foliation suggests that the ginsenoside profile is affected by foliation stage, and this profile differs in each organ of the plant. These results suggest that protopanaxadiol- and protopanaxatriol(PPT)-type ginsenosides are produced according to growth stage to meet different needs in the growth and defense of ginseng. The higher content of PPT-type ginsenosides in leaves could be related to the positive correlation between light and PPT-type ginsenosides.

This study was carried out to determine changes in general chemical composition, free sugars, physicochemical properties of extract, and ginsenoside contents depending upon processing methods. Ginseng roots harvested from the same field were employed for the processing into white ginseng (WG), taegeuk ginseng (TG), red ginseng A (RGA, steamed one time), and red ginseng B (RGB, steamed three times). The fat content decreased by increasing duration of treatment and number of steaming treatment. On the other hand, there was no significant variation in contents of ash and carbohydrate depending on processing methods. Contents of sucrose and maltose was higher in Taegeuk and red ginseng than those of white ginseng. Steamed ginseng root (taegeuk and red ginseng root) showed higher amount of water extractable solid than the unsteamed white ginseng, but the variation of crude saponin content was not distinctive depending on processing methods. The contents of total ginsenosides increased by the order of white, taegeuk, red A, and red B root. In summary, chemical composition and total ginsenoside content were different according to part of root and processing methods, thus implies the importance of quality control as well as pharmacological activity of ginseng root.

MGB-20 findings show that the ginseng berry extracts that had been processed with microwave and vinegar for 20 min peaked in the level of ginsenoside Rg2 (2.28%) and Rh1 (1.28%). MGB-1 peaked in the level of ginsenoside Rg3 (1.13%) in the ginseng berry extract processed with microwave and vinegar for 1 min.

This study was carried out to investigate ginsenoside content in different root parts and the correlation between root diameter and ginsenoside composition of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer cultivated by direct seeding. The unit contents of ginsenoside were 29.65, 28.76, 26.34 mg/g, respectively in 4, 5, 6 years old. However, the total contents of ginsenoside were 431.97, 606.56, 657.80 mg/root, respectively. Total ginsenoside content of fine root was higher than that of main root and lateral root. These tendencies were related to decrease by the increase of root diameter. When diameter of main root and lateral root were the same in different ages, the total ginsenoside content was higher in the order of 4 > 5 > 6 years old roots. Except for ginsenoside-Rg1, other ginsenosides components (PD/PT and total ginsenosides) had highly negative correlation with the root diameter within whole root, main root, lateral root and fine root, which indicated that ginsenoside content is correlated to root diameter. As results, it is suggested that ginsenoside content can be predicted.

수삼으로 제조된 백삼 제품들의 가공방법의 차이에 따른 성분 변화에 대한 조사로서 원료삼인 수삼과 전통적인 방법으로 제조한 백삼, 태극삼 A, 새로운 방법으로 제조된 태극삼 B의 일반성분, 추출수율, 사포닌 함량 및 조성, 유리당 조성을 비교 분석 하였다. 4가지 시료의 조단백질은 13.34-15.33%, 조지방은 1.04-2.05%, 조회분은 3.13-5.25%, 총 식이섬유는 9.72-15.46%, 당질은 64.75-73.48% 범위의 함량이었다. 추출수율은 열수 추출이 80% 메탄올 추출보다 전체적으로 약 2배 이상 높게 나타났으며, 가공하지 않은 수삼의 열수 추출 수율이 56.4%로 가장 높았다. 사포닌 함량은 열수 추출시 수삼의 총 사포닌이 2.40%로 가장 많이 추출되었으며, 태극삼 A는 태극삼 B보다 비율로 볼 때 약 20% 이상 적은 1.45%의 총 사포닌 함량을 나타내었다. Ginsenoside 조성은 열수 추출시 $ginsenoside-Rg_1$이 수삼은 36.52%이지만 태극삼 A와 B는 68.66, 67.89%고 약 2배의 함량을 나타내었다. $Ginsenoside-Rb_1$은 태극삼 A차 B에 18.41, 17.43%만이 함유되어 있었다. 한편 태극삼 A와 태극삼 B의 총 사포닌 양에는 큰 차이가 있었지만 ginsenosides의 조성비에 있어서는 서로 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 80% 메탄올 추출의 경우에도 가공방법이 다르게 제조된 백삼 제품별로 ginsenoside조성에 큰 차이를 나타내었다. 수삼과 백삼에서는 열수 추출과 80% 메탄올 추출 모두에서 함량비는 다를지라도 fructose, glucose, sucrose, maltose만이 함유되어 있었지만 열 처리된 태극삼 A와 B에는 rhamnose도 각각 2.56, 4.01%씩 함유되어 있었다.
