This study aimed to investigate the effects of Centella asiatica powder on the quality characteristics and storage stability of goat meat Tteokgalbi. The goat meat Tteokgalbi samples were prepared with four different quantities (0, 0.5, 1, and 1.5%) of Centella asiatica powder. The moisture content of the samples containing Centella asiatica powder was significantly lower than that of the control (p<0.05). The protein content of the samples containing Centella asiatica powder was significantly higher than that of the control (p<0.05). As the proportion of Centella asiatica powder increased, the pH, L^*, and a^* values of the uncooked and cooked samples decreased (p<0.05). The water holding capacity and the cooking yield of the uncooked and cooked samples were higher in the samples containing Centella asiatica powder than in the control (p<0.05). Also, with the increasing amounts of the Centella asiatica powder, the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) levels decreased. The 1-1.5% Centella asiatica powder group showed lower levels of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) than the other groups as per the assay (p<0.05). The results indicate that Centella asiatica powder could enhance the quality characteristics and storage stability of goat meat Tteokgabi.

Pentacyclic triterpenes, mainly, asiatic acid, madecassic acid, asiaticoside, and madecassoside are the active constituents of Centella asiatica. A pentacyclic triterpene enriched C. asiatica extract (PRE) was prepared and standardized to contain a total pentacyclic triterpenes not less than 65% w/w. This work was focused on determination of antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and tyrosinase inhibitory activities of PRE and its stability. The PRE exhibited a satisfactory nitric oxide inhibitory effect, with an $IC_{50}$ value of $64.6{\mu}g/mL$. In addition, the PRE inhibited tyrosinase enzyme activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $104.8{\mu}g/mL$. In contrast, the PRE possessed only weak antioxidant activity. The PRE was stable over a period of four months when stored as a dried powder but only in a well-closed container protected from light at $4^{\circ}C$. An aqueous alcoholic solution of the PRE was stable at pH values of 5.8 and 7.0, but was not stable at a pH of 8.2. Preparations of the PRE in an aqueous solution should be performed in acidic or neutral conditions.

본 연구에서는 의약품과 화장품에 사용되는 고순도의 센텔라아시아티카정량추출물을 리포좀화하는 방법과 이를 이용한 크림을 개발하여 주름개선에 대한 in-vivo 임상평가에 대하여 연구한 결과를 보고한다. 리포좀 라멜라 베지클에 센텔라아사아티카정량추출물을 안정화시킨 센텔라좀-10EX을 만들기 위하여, 5%의 하이드로제네이티드레시틴과 2%의 수크로오스다이스테아레이트를 사용하여 완성시킬 수 있었다. 센텔라좀-10EX의 외관은 저점성의 크림상, 색상은 엷은 황색, 냄새는 원료 본연의 고유취가 있었다. pH는 약 6.12 이었으며, 비중은 1.09, 산가는 약 0.35이었다. 리포좀 베지클에 함유된 센텔라아시아티카정량추출물의 주성분의 함량은 10,800ppm의 아시아틱애씨드, 10,900ppm의 아시아티코사이드, 6,000ppm의 마테카식애씨드, 1,600ppm의 마데카소사이드가 함유하고 있으며, 장기간 보관 시에도 변색이 없었고, 열역학적으로 주성분이 안정하게 유지되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 센텔라좀-10EX의 리포좀 베지클의 구조를 메커니즘 적으로 분석하기 위하여, 투과전자현미경 (Cryo-TEM)으로 관찰한 결과 다중층막이 형성되어 수분이 채워져 있고, 그 주변에는 10~60여층의 다중층의 리포좀 라멜라 베지클 형성되었음을 확인하였다. 임상시험(in-vivo)으로써, 센텔라좀 크림의 5주동안 바른 후의 보습효과는 28.3%로 플라세보 보다 유의차 있게 증가되었다. 피부탄력효과는 13.6%로 플라세보 보다 유의차 있게 보습력이 증가되었다. 눈가의 피부잔주름 개선효과는 플라세보 크림보다 23.52%가 개선되었다. 이 연구 결과를 통하여 개발된 센텔라좀-10EX의 리포좀 베지클에 봉입 안정화하는 처방과 제조방법에 대하여 연구할 수 있었으며, 이를 이용한 크림에 대한 주름개선효과 등의 임상연구를 통하여 얻어진 결과들이 화장품 산업에 있어서 피부과학을 연구하고, 고 효능을 가진 고품격 화장품을 개발하는데 폭넓게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

We have investigated that a couple of soft ferrite ceramic powders having a spinal structure have shown the effect on growth and secondary metabolites production of some medicinal plants cultured in vitro. The addition of the ceramic powders as bare state to culture medium has stimulated the growth of Achyranthes japonica callus and plantlet, adventitious root of Hyoscyamus niger and Platycodon grandiflorum hairy root about 65, 75, 150 and 50%, respectively. Whereas Centella asiatica callus and plantlet, Scopolia parviflora hairy root, and Hyoscyamus albus adventitious root were not affected markedly. Moreover, the ceramic powder has enhanced the growth of H. niger adventitious roots even under conditions of irradiating alone without any direct contact between ceramic powder and media. Based on growth stimulation effect, the ceramic powders have enhanced the gross production of tropane alkaloid in H. niger adventitious root, and polyacetylene in P. grandiflorum hairy root about 35 and 30%, respectively.

Ten numbers of plants, based on their medicinal value, were used to test their efficacy against virosis (caused by cytoplassmic polyhedrosis virus) in tasar silkworm, Antheraea mylitta Drury. in indoor rearing conditions. The aqueous extracts of leaf of Azadirichita indica (neem), Acharanthus aspera, Psoralea corylifolia, Asparagus racemosus, Adhatoda zelanica (Basak), Andrographis paniculata (Kalmegh), Moringa oilephera (sahjan), whole plant of Phyllanthus urinaria (Bhuiamla), Centella asiatica (Veng sag) and Curcuma longa (Haldi powder) in different concentrations were used for containment of virosis in silkworm larvae. The tasar silkworm larvae were orally inoculated with PIBs ($1\times10^6$) of AmCPV in $2^{nd}$ instar and treated with plant extracts in each instar ($2^{rd}$ instar onwards). The mortality due to virosis was recorded during larval period. The plant extracts, irrespective of their concentrations, were found effective in suppressing the virosis where P. urinaria reduced the virosis to 56.90% followed by A. paniculata (53.82%) and least in C. asiatica (5.15%). The lowest pooled larva mortality 36.99% was recorded in the treatment of P. urinaria. Comparatively higher larva mortality 39.91% was observed with the treatment of A. paniculata. The highest larva mortality in treatment was with C. asiatica (81.99%). In treated control larva mortality was 86.50%.
