In order to develop natural food preservatives, the ethanol and water extracts of the Saururus chinensis Baill were prepared. Antimicrobial activity was examined against 10 kinds of harmful microorganisms. The ethanol and water extracts showed the most active antimicrobial activity against B. subtilis and E. coli. The ethanol extract showed stronger antimicrobial activity than that of the water extract. However, the extracts did not show any antimicrobial activity against lactic acid bacteria and yeast. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of ethanol extracts against B. subtilis and E. coli were 5 to 10 mg/mL, respectively. Antimicrobial activity of the ethanol extract was not destroyed at 40-12$0^{\circ}C$ and pH 3∼11. The ethanol extract was fractionated in the order of hexane, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, and water fractions. The highest antimicrobial activity was found in the diethyl ether fraction.

Rhizoctonia stem rot of Saururui herba [Saururus chinensis (Lour) Baill] was observed during plantations from 1996 to 1997 in Chungbuk area. Infected plant showed damping-off and stem rot at soil line. The causal fungus of stem rot isolated from the infected plant was identified as Rhizoctonia solani according to the criteria based on the cultural and morphological characteristics. The stem rot of Saururi herba caused by Rhizoctonia solani was first described in Korea, and the name the“Rhizoctonia black stem rot”is proposed.

This study was performed to determine antioxidative activity of solvent extracts from medicinal plant. As the result, methanol extract from Saurus chinensis Bail and Glycine soya exhibited superior free radical activity as well as reducing power. In particular, methanol extract from Saurus chinensis Bail showed high free radical activity with 130.08${\mu}g/mL$ as $IC_{50}$ value and strong reducing power at concentration of $400{\mu}g/mL$.
