This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of green and taste teas on the in-vitro antimicrobial activity and vacuolating toxin titer of Helicobacter pylori. Crude aqueous extracts prepared by adding 2 g of tea leaf or powder to 100 ml of boiling distilled water, and sterilized by passing through a 0.22 $mutextrm{m}$ membrane filter. Green tea, coffee, and ginger tea showed bactericidal activity on H. pylori within 3 hours. Black tea and ssangwha tea also showed bactericidal activity on H. pylori in 24 hours. Arrowroot tea show no bactericidal effect on H. pylori after 48 hours. Two fold diluted green tea and coffee decreased(1/10,000cfu) the growth of H. pylori in 24 hours, but the two fold diluted black tea, ssangwha tea, and ginger tea showed suppression effect upon of(1/10cfu) H. pylori in 24 hours. The two-fold and 10-fold diluted green tea, coffee and two-fold diluted black tea abrogated the vacuolating toxin titer of H. pylori, but the two-fold and 10-fold diluted ginger, ssangwha, ginseng, and arrowroot tea only reduced the vacuolating toxin titer of H.pylori from 1/2 to 1/8. These result suggest that green tea and coffee have effective antibacterial or bactericidal effects on H.pylori, and that they also have a neutralization effect upon the vacuolating toxin of H.pylori.

Optimal extraction conditions were established from the difference of quality characteristics according to extraction conditions of Ssangwha extracts(SWE). Extract yields of SWE obtained from the established extraction conditions were as follows. The maximum yield was 48.90% at extraction temperature 90$^{\circ}C$ and alcohol concentration 50%, extraction yield and alcohol concentration of extraction solvent was proportioned. Increase of extraction yields at extraction temperature 80∼90$^{\circ}C$ and more than alcohol concentration 30% had slowdown tendency according to increase of alcohol concentration. At this view point, the optimum extraction conditions were alcohol concentration 30% and more than extraction temperature 80$^{\circ}C$. In this study, optimal extraction conditions of SWE were extraction temperature 90$^{\circ}C$ and alcohol concentration 30%.
