Objectives : Effects of Rhodiola rosea root on cancers on stomach, breast, lung, and liver were examined. Methods : Water extracts and methanol extracts of Rhodiola rosea root were treated on cancer cells, and its effects on cancers were examined. Results : 1. Water extracts and methanol extracts of Rhodiola rosea root was less harmful in its lowest density 0.25 mg/mL (9.l%와 10.5%), but became more harmful as its density increased. 2. As for human stomach adenocarcinoma cells AGS, breast adenocarcinoma cells MCF-7, and lung carcinoma cells A549, methanol extracts showed 70-77% inhibition of cancer cells in high density(1 mg/mL), and water extracts showed 60-70% inhibition rate and its selective death rate was less than 2.5. Conclusion : Rhodiola rosea root can be used to treat cancers and to increase immunity.

Cnidium japonicum a biennial plant belonging to the family Umbelliferae, is a halophyte that grows in high-salinity areas of coastal sand dunes and sandy shores. This study was conducted to investigate the constituents, antioxidant activities, and physiological activities of C. japonicum. Mineral analyses revealed that potassium, sodium, calcium, and magnesium were the most prevalent minerals in C. japonicum. We used 80% ethanol, 80% methanol, and distilled water as solvents to prepare extracts from C. japonicum tissues, and the obtained extraction yields ranged between approximately 26% and 32%. Among the three extracts, the ethanol and methanol extracts had higher total polyphenol and flavonoid levels than the water extracts did. The antioxidant activities of methanol extracts were the highest among the various solvent extracts of C. japonicum as was the elastase/collagenase inhibitory activity. In contrast, the ethanol extract exhibited the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Furthermore, the methanol extract possessed over 80% BACE1 (β-secretase) inhibitory activity at a final concentration of 20 ㎍/mL. Therefore, these results indicate that methanol and ethanol extracts of C. japonicum may be useful as antioxidant and functional substances in food and pharmaceutical material.

The antioxidant activities of methanol and dichloromethane extracts of eighteen salt marsh plants were tested by using 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl(DPPH) at a $100{\mu}g/ml$ concentrations. The methanol extracts of four salt marsh plants(Rosa rugosa Thunberg, Erigeron annuus, Ixeris tamagawaensis kitamura, Artemisia capillaris Thunberg) were found to be most effective in DPPH radical scavenging activity. The DPPH radical scavenging effect of these plants was Artemisia capillaris Thunberg(88.67%), Rosa rugosa Thunberg(87.51%), Erigeron annuus(78.49%), Ixeris tamagawaensis kitamura(69.99%) in order and was comparable with that of natural antioxidant, L-ascorbic acid(96.64%). The next effective ones were the methanol extracts of Teragonia tetragonoides(58.66%) and the dichloromethane extracts of Artemisia capillaris Thunberg(54.67%) and the others did not show a considerable activity. These salt marsh plants were evaluated using the pyrogallol UV-VIS spectrophotometeric method to generate superoxide anion. Among them, the dichloromethane extracts of four salt marsh plants and the methanol extracts of fifteen ones were weak superoxide dismutase-like activities.

This study was performed to investigate the antimicrobial effect of the Pulsatilla koreana extracts against food-borne pathogens. First, the Pulsatilla koreana was extracted with methanol at room temperatures, and fractionation of the methanol extracts from Pulsatilla koreana was carried out by using petroleum ether, chloroform, and ethyl acetate, and methanol respectively. The antimicrobial activity of the Pulsatilla koreana extracts was determined using a paper disc method against food-borne pathogens and food spoilage bacteria. The ethyl acetate extracts of Pulsatilla koreana showed the highest antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enteritidis and Shigella dysenteriae. The Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae were inhibited by petroleum ether and chloroform extracts of Pulsatilla koreana as well as ethyl acetate extracts of Pulsatilla koreana. The synergistic effect has been found in combined extracts of Pulsatilla koreana and Portulaca oleracea as compared to each extracts alone. Finally, the growth inhibition curve was determined using ethyl acetate extracts of Pulsatilla koreana against Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae. The ethyl acetate extract of Pulsatilla koreana showed strong antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus at the concentration of 2,000 ppm. The 2,000 ppm of ethyl acetate extract from Pulsatilla koreana retarded the growth of S. aureus more than 12 hours and Shigella dysenteriae up to 9 hours.

인삼중에 함유되어 있는 항산화물질의 본태를 파악하기 위하여 인삼의 각종 용매(petroleum ether, chleroform, chleroform-methanol, methanol 및 methanol-water)추출물들이 혼합 불포화지방산 메틸에스테르(MEUFA)의 자동산화에 미치는 영향을 in vitro에서 검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 인삼의 각종 용매 추출물들은 모두 항산화작용을 나타내어 MEUFA의 자동산화에 의한 지질 과산화물의 형성을 억제하였다. 그 중에서도 클로로포름 및 클로로포름-메탄올(2 : 1, v/v)추출물들이 보다 강한 항산화작용을 나타내었다. 2. Olcotte 등의 oven test에 의한 무게의 증가는 MEUFA의 자동산화에 의한 과산화물의 형성에 기인함이 확인되었다. 3. 인삼의 각 추출물들은 MEUFA의 지질 과산화물형성의 유도기간을 연장시켰다. 4. 각 추출물들의 항산화작용에 있어서 Olcott 등의 oven test에 의한 무게의 측정 Lea법과 Rhodan 철법에 의한 POV 측정 등의 결과에서 추정되는 작용은 상호간 잘 일치되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 인삼중에는 항산화물질들이 인삼성분으로서 함유되어 있음이 in vitro에서 확인되었다.

The aim of this study was to determine total phenolics (TP) content, total flavonoids (TF) level, and antioxidant activity of methanol extracts from leaf parts of 15 Vietnamese wild plants. TP content showed the highest amount in methanol extracts from Altenanthera sessilis ($409.7{\pm}1.4$ ppm), and followed by Eclipta prostrata ($183.6{\pm}3.8$ ppm) and Cassia tora ($159.3{\pm}5.7$ ppm). The highest TF level also was found in A. sessilis ($156.3{\pm}1.7$ ppm), followed by E. prostrata, and C. tora, showing similar tendency to TP. Methanol extracts of A. sessilis, E. prostrate and C. tora at 1000 ppm exhibited the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity by 94.5, 92.6 and 92.7%, respectively. The methanol extracts from A. sessilis showed the highest ABTS and nitrite scavenging activities by 97% and 92%, respectively. The highest correlation coefficient ($r^2$) was 0.9522 between TP and TF, and followed by 0.8919 between DPPH and ABTS activities. However, polyphenols and antioxidant activities showed low correlation coefficients, ranging from $r^2=0.4114$ to 0.4826. It was concluded that Vietnamese wild plants contain polyphenol compounds with antioxidant activities depending on plant species.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the bioactivity of extracts from the seeds of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis fructus (GJE) found in Namhae, Korea. Extraction was performed using three solvents, 70% methanol, Distilled Water (DW), and Ethyl Acetate (EA). We determined the total phenol and phytic acid contents of the extracts to evaluate their nitrogen oxide scavenging activity, antioxidant activity, reducing power, and lipid peroxidation inhibition ability. The phytic acid content of GJE was found to be 1.157 mg PAE (Phytic Acid Equivalent) /g DW. The yields of the three extraction processes were as follows: DW, 36.61%; 70% methanol, 30.10%; and EA, 20.40%. The physiological activities of the extract solvents increased significantly with increasing concentrations (0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 mg/mL) (p<0.05), but were lower than those of ascorbic acid, BHA, and trolox. Total phenol content was the highest in the 70% methanol extract, followed by DW and EA extracts. Further, nitrogen oxide scavenging activity and antioxidant activity were the highest for the 70% methanol extract followed by DW and EA extracts. Based on these results, the bioactivities of the 70% methanol and DW extracts of GJ seeds were excellent. These extracts can be used as natural antioxidants.
