The antioxidative activity and antimutagenic activity of the ethanol extracts from pericarp and seeds of wild grape (Vitis coignetiea) were analyzed in this study. The antioxidative activity of the extracts from wild grape was determined using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assay. The antimutagenic activity of the extracts was evaluated on Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 by Ames test using 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO) and sodium azide as mutagens. In the antioxidative activity determination, $IC_{50}$ values of the DPPH radical scavenging activity of the extracts from pericarp and seeds were 27.16 ppm and 7.61 ppm, respectively. Additionally, ABTS radical scavenging activities of pericarp and seed extract were 99.75% and 98.87% at 200 ppm, respectively. In the antimutagenic activity determination, pericarp extract at 5 mg/plate inhibited 72.6% and 74.3% of mutagenicity of S. typhimurium TA98 induced by 4-NQO and sodium azaid, respectively. Also, the mutagenicity inhibition rates of seed extract at 5 mg/plate were 77.8% and 74.5% in S. typhimurium TA100 induced by 4-NQO and sodium azaid, respectively. These results demonstrate that the ethanol extract from wild grape has remarkable antioxidant activity and antimutagenicity.

The antioxidant activities of the ethanol extract of Arctium lappa were assessed by measuring the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl( DPPH) radical scavenging effect, inhibition of $Fe^{2+}$-induced lipid peroxidation, inhibition of malondialdehyde(MDA)-bovine serum albumin(BSA) conjugation reaction and antimutagenic capacities using the Ames test. The DPPH radical scavenging activity and inhibition of $Fe^{2+}$-induced lipid peroxidation of the $Arctium$ $lappa$ ethanol extract significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner. In the radical scavenging assay using DPPH, the $IC_{50}$ of the Arctium lappa extract was 296 ${\mu}g$/assay(1.29 mg of dry sample). In addition, the $IC_{50}$ in the inhibition of $Fe^{2+}$-induced lipid peroxidation was 1,759 ${\mu}g$/assay(7.65 mg of dry sample). This extract also significantly inhibited the MDA-BSA conjugation reaction with an $IC_{50}$ of 57.58 mg/assay(250 mg of dry sample). However, no inhibitory effects against the direct and indirect mutagenicities in $Salmonella$ Typhimurium TA98 and TA100 were observed. Based on these results, the ethanol extract of $Arctium$ $lappa$ was shown to display considerable antioxidative activities.
