The aim of this study was to develop a new natural preservative system to improve the weak points of natural polyhydric alcohols together with the efficiency of natural plants as a preservative. Polyhydric alcohols (glyceryl caprylate and ethylhexylglycerin) and antimicrobial plants (S. radix, A. nilotica and C. reticulata) were tested using the disc diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method for their antimicrobial activity against the common poultry pathogens, respectively. A study of the preservative efficacy of the cosmetic formulations containing the optimized preservative system demonstrated sufficient preservative efficacy against bacteria and eukaryotic test microbes. These results suggest that the natural preservative system including polyhydric alcohol extracts containing natural plants could be incorporated in cosmetic formulations.

Background: The Rosa multiflora, a well-known plant belonging to Rosacea, is widely used in orthodox medicine in worldwide. However, its biological activity and cosmetic preservative efficacy have not yet been studied. Thus, this species is yet to be defined as a functional cosmetic material. Accordingly, an investigation of the above mentioned atrributes was performed on a 50% ethanol extract of Rosa multiflora. Methods and Results: The antioxidant activity was assessed through free radical scavenging assays with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Additionally, the contents of total phenols and flavonoids were analyzed. The phenolic compounds were detected using HPLC. The antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans was assessed using the disc diffusion assay. The preservative effect (challenge test) on a formulation of soothing gel was performed for 28days. The DPPH radical scavenging ability, denoted by the $SC_{50}$ (half maximal inhibitory concentration for DPPH radical scavenging) value was found to be $131.63{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The content of total polyphenol and flavonoid content were 202 mg/g and 86.77 mg/g, respectively. In additon, astragalin and gallic acid were identified in the extract. The antimicrobial activity of the extract against S. aureus and E. coli was observed to be 5 - 0.5%, and no significant activity was noted against C. albicans. The ethanol extracts (5% and 10%) met the preservation standards of the Cosmetics, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA). Conclusions: Thus the ethanol extract of R. multiflora can be used in cosmetics as a natural preservative and antioxidant.

본 연구에서는 인체에 보다 안전한 천연 화장품보존제 발굴을 목표로 하여 인간유래 항균펩타이드 LL-37의 짧은 유사체인 FK-13을 화장품보존제로 사용하고자 연구를 진행하였다. 이를 위해 13개의 아미노산으로 구성된 FK-13 펩타이드를 고상 펩타이드 합성법로 합성하였고 reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC)로 정제 후 liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)를 이용하여 순도와 분자량을 확인하였다. 합성된 FK-13을 이용하여 미생물에 대한 방부력을 검정하였고 화장품에 적용 가능성을 살펴보았다. FK-13은 3개의 그람-양성균 (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus epidermidis)과 3개의 그람-음성균 (Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa), 그리고 진균인 Candida glabrata 에서도 높은 항균 활성을 보였으며 넓은 항균활성 스펙트럼을 나타내었다. 이를 바탕으로 화장품보존제로서의 적합성을 확인하였다. 또한 FK-13은 고온에서 분자의 열안정성을 보였으며 기존의 천연 한방화장품 방부제 및 화학보존제들과의 항균활성 비교 실험에서도 보다 월등한 항균활성 효능을 나타내었다. 따라서 FK-13 펩타이드는 인체 친화적이고 효과적인 항균활성을 나타내므로, 기존 화학보존제를 대체할 새로운 천연 화장품보존제로 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

점안약에 광범위하게 사용되는 보존제(preservatives)의 세포독성 및 항균 활성 및 항진균 활성을 검정하였다. 세포독성은 L929세포를 사용하였으며, 항균 항진균 활성 검정에 사용된 균주는 눈의 정상 세균총의 일종이거나 각막염을 일으키는 세균인 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Eschenchia coli ATCC25922 등 3가지이고, 진균은 Trichoderma reesei ATCC6967을 사용하였다. 사용된 시약은 합성 보존제인 benzalkonium chloride(BAC)와 천연 보존제인 키토산이며 키토산의 분자량은 60,000, 탈아세틸화도는 95%, 점도는 2 cps였다. L929세포에 대해 24 hr, 48 hr, 72 hr 동안 각각의 농도로 세포독성 검정 결과 세포의 30% 이상 성장저해를 일으키는 농도는 BAC의 경우 0.005~0.001%였고, 키토산의 경우는 0.6~0.55%였으며, 이 결과는 시간에 따라 거의 변화가 없었다. 각각의 균에 대한 BAC의 항균 항진균 활성을 나타내는 최소저해농도는 P. aeruginosa에는 0.1~0.01%였고, S. aureus에는 0.001~0.0001%였으며 E. coli에는 0.001~0.0001%, T. reesei에는 0.1~0.01%였다. 키토산은 P. aeruginosa의 경우 2%, S. aureus가 1%에서 2일간 균 성장 정시작용을 나타내었으며, E. coli에서는 성장저해를 일으키지 않았다. 진균에 대해서는 농도 의존적으로 생육을 촉진시켰다. 천연보존제는 합성보존제에 비해 항균성은 다소 떨어지지만 세포독성을 일으키지 않으며 여러 약리 작용이 있으므로 이에 대한 연구가 더 필요하다.

This study was performed to investigate the corrosion of metal fasteners in waterborne preservative-treated wood. Of all the metal tested, steel exhibited the greatest amount of corrosion across all preservatives and exposure conditions whereas stainless steel was totally inert. Galvanized steel corroded at a much lower rate compared to steel and the corrosion of brass was negligible. Among the preservatives, CCA-Type B was the most corrosive system tested. The sequence for the average corrosivity across all metals was: CCA-type B>CCA-Type C${\geq}$ACC${\geq}$CCA-Type A. Across all metals and retentions the salt formulations were more corrosive than the oxide and the corrosion was increased with the increse in the amount of preservative loadings. The amount of corrosion was also increased with the increase in exposure relative humidity (RH) across all metals and presevatives However, at the 60% RH exposure condition, the corrosion of metals was very negligible. Consequently, it can be concluded that across all metals oxide-type preservatives should be used to prevent the corrosion problem of metal fasteners in contact with treated wood and the use of steel nail preservative-treated wood should be avoided without distinction of end-use location, i.e., exterior or interior, and the use of stainless steel or at least brass nail in damp exterior condition was strongly recommended.

This review discusses the status, antimicrobial mechanisms, application, and regulation of natural preservatives in livestock food systems. Conventional preservatives are synthetic chemical substances including nitrates/nitrites, sulfites, sodium benzoate, propyl gallate, and potassium sorbate. The use of artificial preservatives is being reconsidered because of concerns relating to headache, allergies, and cancer. As the demand for biopreservation in food systems has increased, new natural antimicrobial compounds of various origins are being developed, including plant-derived products (polyphenolics, essential oils, plant antimicrobial peptides (pAMPs)), animal-derived products (lysozymes, lactoperoxidase, lactoferrin, ovotransferrin, antimicrobial peptide (AMP), chitosan and others), and microbial metabolites (nisin, natamycin, pullulan, ε-polylysine, organic acid, and others). These natural preservatives act by inhibiting microbial cell walls/membranes, DNA/RNA replication and transcription, protein synthesis, and metabolism. Natural preservatives have been recognized for their safety; however, these substances can influence color, smell, and toxicity in large amounts while being effective as a food preservative. Therefore, to evaluate the safety and toxicity of natural preservatives, various trials including combinations of other substances or different food preservation systems, and capsulation have been performed. Natamycin and nisin are currently the only natural preservatives being regulated, and other natural preservatives will have to be legally regulated before their widespread use.
