The antimicrobial and glucosyltransferase(GTase) inhibition activity were searched for 30 species of various folk drugs and by products of food industry. Among them, two species, gallnut and red grape husk water extracts, were selected for the powerful antimicrobial and GTase inhibition activity. The polyphenol fractions of gallnut and red grape husk were showed very greater antimicrobial activity on both Gram(+) and (-), B. subtilis and E. coli. The minimum antimicrobial activity of gallnut polyphenol fraction were 1.0mg for B. subtilis and 3,0mg for E. coli. Red grape husk was 2.0mg for B. subtilis and 3.0mg for E coli. The polyphenol fractions of gall nut and red grape husk were showed powerful GTase inhibition activity. The concentrations of these fractions for 80% inhibition of GTase activity were 1.08$\times$10$\^$-3/mg/㎖ and 1.08$\times$10$\^$-2/mg/㎖, respectively. The most abundant compound in these fraction seems to be polyphenol derivatives. From these results, we think that the gallnut and the red grape husk polyphenol fraction had more antimicrobial and anti-plaque activities than artificial synthetic preservatives as an economic point of view.

오배자 등 민간생약제와 포도과피 추출물의 항균활성과 GTase 활성저해능에 대하여 조사하였다. 항균활성과 GTase 저해 활성능은 오배자와 적포도 과피의 물추출물이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 오배자와 적포도 과피 추출물의 methanol 분획물은 B. subtilis와 E. coli 균주에 대해서 강한 항균활성을 나타내었다. 오배자 추출물의 methanol 분획물은 B. subtilis와 E. coli에 대한 최소 저해 농도가 각각 1.0mg/ml과 3.0mg/ml이었고, 포도과피 추출물 추출물의 methanol 분획물의 GTase활성의 80% 저해율에 대한 농도는 각각 1.08$\times$10-3mg/ml과 1.08$\times$10-2mg/ml이었다. 두 추출물의 항균활성과 GTase활성 저해의 주요 화합물은 polyphenol 화합물 계통으로 추정된다.
