In this study, we selected some material to have potential bioactivity from natural plants, confirmed as basic data for industrializing and tried to develope the food materials using them. DPPH, ABTS, antioxidant protection factor, TBARs and antimicrobial activity of extracts from Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruits were determined. The total phenolics extracted from Rosa multiflora were 12.08, 11.82, 11.1 and 12.6 mg/g when using water, 70% ethanol, 70% methanol and 70% acetone as the solvent, respectively. The optimum conditions for extracting the phenolic compounds were 70% ethanol over for 12 hrs(11.82 mg/g). The electron donating ability and inhibition rate on ABTS of the 70% ethanol extracts were 97% and 92.2%, respectively while the antioxidant protection factor(PF) of the water extracts and 70% ethanol extracts were 1.79 and 1.34 PF, respectively. The TBAR (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) value were $1.3{\mu}M$ for the control and $0.15{\mu}M$ for the 70% ethanol extracts. The inhibitory activity against ${\alpha}$-amylase was 26% for the 70% ethanol extracts. The 70% ethanol extracts from Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruits exhibited antimicrobial activity against H. pylori, S. epidermidis, S. aureusand and E. coli with clear zone diameters of 14, 25, 14 and 13 mm, respectively when using $200{\mu}g/mL$ of the phenolic compounds. An HPLC analysis identified 6 major phenolic metabolites in the Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruits extracts: rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, courmaric acid, protocatechuic acid and quercetin. In particular, the content of rosmarinic acid was the highest in the 70% ethanol extracts. Therefore these results indicate that 70% ethanol extracts from Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruits can be useful as a natural antioxidant and in functional foods.

The optimum extraction of phenolic compounds from whole Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruits was accomplished using 70% ethanol, which produced extracts that generated a zone of inhibition around Helicobacter pylori of 13 mm when $200{\mu}g/mL$ phenolic compounds were applied. In this study, the quality of white bread baked from dough containing added Rosa multiflora Thunberg extracts was investigated. No deterioration of product quality factors including hydration of wheat flour, formation of dough and internal visual characteristics of dough was observed. However, white bread containing Rosa multiflora Thunberg extracts had a wet texture because of the high moisture level, as well as a high number of irregular bubble holes when compared to the control. Nevertheless, there were no remarkable differences between the sample and the control.

The antimicrobial activity of 70% ethanol extracts from Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit against Helicobacter pylori was examined. The inhibitory activity of Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit extracts against H. pylori was determined to clear a zone of 14 mm with 70% ethanol extracts. Purification of inhibitory compounds was carried on Sephadex LH-20 and $C_{18}$ cartridge column chromatography using a gradient procedure, with increasing ethanol ($0{\rightarrow}100%$) in $H_2O$. The chemical structure of the purified inhibitory compounds on H. pylori was identified to be protocatechuic acid, chlorogenic acid and quercetin by FAB-MS, NMR and IR spectrum.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics and biological activities of Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit extracts fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum based on fermentation period of 0, 24, 48, and 72 h. The study showed the pH of Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit fermentation extracts have decreased as fermentation time increased, but the sugar content remained the same. The total acid content increased as the fermentation time increased. The viable cell count was at highest at 24 h (8.59 log CFU/mL) of fermentation, and the viable cell count decreased as the fermentation time increased. The total polyphenol content (14.85 mg GAE/g), total flavonoid content (6.74 mg RE/g), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, ABTS⁺ radical scavenging activity, reducing power, α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitory activity were highest at 24 h of fermentation. Therefore, the study proved fermentation of Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit with lactic acid increases physiological activity compared to nonfermented Rosa multiflora Thunberg fruit. Also the 24 h of fermentation had the highest activity, confirming the possibility of future use as a functional food material.

Rosa multiflora thunberg belonging to Rosaceae is widely distributed in East Asia including Korea and Japan, and has been reported to have tormentic acid and rosamultin. To develop a new natural anti-inflammatory agent for cosmetics, we investigated the inhibitory effects of inflammation in Rosa multiflora root (R. multiflora root). The biological activity and anti-inflammatory effects were investigated by water, ethanol, methanol and acetone extracts of R. multiflora root. The measurements of polyphenol content from R. multiflora root were highest in water and acetone extracts, at 57.48 ${\pm}$ 0.88 mg/g and 67.05 ${\pm}$ 0.56 mg/g, respectively. The result of DPPH, ABTS and superoxide anion radical scavenging effects showed over 50% efficacy at 50 ${\mu}g/ml$ in ethanol, methanol and acetone extracts. Hyaluronidase inhibition effect showed over 60% efficacy at 500 ${\mu}g/ml$ in ethanol, methanol, and acetone extracts. Nitric oxide radical inhibition effect of R. multiflora root ethanol extracts showed over 30% efficacy at 500 ${\mu}g/ml$. We investigated the effect of R. multiflora root extracts on nitric oxide (NO) production of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. The result showed that R. multiflora root extracts have an inhibitory effect on NO production and iNOS expression and also can be used as an anti-inflammatory agent. These antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of R. multiflora root show applicant potential application as a functional cosmetic material.
