A study was performed to compare the anticancer effects of Korean and Chinese red ginseng roots. The whole crude extracts or chloroform, methanol and acetone fractions of the crude extracts were added in the culture medium of three cancer cell lines, a mouse leukemia cell line ($P_{388}$), a human colon carcinoma cell line (HT-29) and a human rectal carcinoma cell line (HRT-18), to screen the growth inhibition effects. The results are summarized as follows : 1. Crude extracts of both Korean and Chinese red ginseng roots inhibited the proliferation of all the three cancer cell lines tested in a dose dependent manner. However, the growth inhibition effects of Korean red ginseng extracts were significantly greater than that of Chinese red ginseng. 2. An acetone fraction showed the greatest antiproliferative effects among the 11'hole crude extracts, chloroform, methanol and acetone fractions of the crude extracts. 3. These results suggest that the active antiproliferative components of the crude extracts are present mostly in the acetone fraction.

To develop new antidementia nutraceuticals, a potent acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-inhibiting extract was screened from various extracts of nutritional mushrooms and lichens nutritional and its physicochemical properties were investigated. Among the several extracts tested, methanol extracts of Umbilicaria esculenta fruiting body showed the highest AChE inhibitory activity of 22.4%. U. esculenta AChE inhibitor was maximally extracted when fruiting bodies were treated with 80% methanol at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. The methanol extracts contained 18.9% crude lipid, 18.8% crude protein, and 11.6% total sugar. In addition, they contained 444 mg/g glutamic acid, 44 mg/g histidine, and 41 mg/g aspartic acid. The methanol extracts were soluble in a solution of methanol and 20% dimethylsulfoxide, insoluble in n-hexane, chloroform, and water, and were stable at $20{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and pH $1.0{\sim}5.0$ for 1 h.

3가지의 식물체 추출액을 공시하여 P. capsici에 대한 항균 활성 검정, 고추 역병에 대한 방제효과 및 고추에 미치는 약해를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 3가지 식물체 물 추출액 중에서 일황련 추출애기 균새장 억제효과가 가장 뛰어났으며, 2배의 희석농도에서 70% 이상의 억제 효과가 있었고, methanol 추출액의 경우 1,000배 이상의 희석농도에서도 74.4%의 억제 효과가 있었다. 지모 및 일황련 추출액의 2개 희석농도와 황백나무의 추출원액 처리에 의해 P.capsici의 유주자낭의 발아는 완전히 억제되었다. 2. Methanol에 의한 추출액이 상온에서 물에 의해 추출하거나, 끓여서 추출한 액보다 항균력이 우수하였다. 3. 세 가지 식물체 추출액 모두 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 고추 역병균에 대한 항균력은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 4. 세 가지 추출액 모두 고추 역병에 대해서 방제효과가 있었고, 그 중 일황련 추출액이 가자 효과적이며 황백나무 및 지모의 순이었다. 5. 수경 재배형식의 유모검정에서는 고추묘에 약해가 있었으나, pot시험에서는 약해가 없었다. 또한 고추 종자에 추출액을 처리했을 때 발아가 저해되거나 유근의 신장이 억제되는 등 약해가 유발되어쓰나, 고추 잎과 고추 과실에 추출애글 엽면살포 하였을 때에는 아무런 해가 나타나지 않았다.

This communication emphasized upon the sensitivity of the crude extracts of clerodendrum inerme against some of the human pathogenic bacteria. Five plant extracts (Petrol, Benzene, Methanol, Ethly acetate and Aqueous) under six different concentrations(500 ${\mu}g/ml$, 1 mg/ml, 2 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 10 mg/ml and 15 mg/ml) were tested by disk diffusion method. Methanol, Ethyl acetate and Aqueous extracts of the plant showed significant inhibition against fifteen of the eighteen bacteria tested. No earlier report on antibacterial activity of this taxon could be found in literature.

Aristolochia bracteolata is being used in traditional medicine for a variety of ailments. Three successive and two crude extracts of its leaves were subjected for in vitro antioxidant activity using seven different methods. The successive ethyl acetate and crude methanol extracts have shown potent antioxidant activity in ABTS method with $IC_{50}$ values of $17.08\;{\pm}\;0.44\;and\;28.12\;{\pm}\;2.87\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The crude methanol and successive chloroform extracts have shown moderate antioxidant activity in scavenging of hydroxyl radical by p-NDA method. All the extracts have shown moderate to low antioxidant activity by other methods.

Methanol and water crude extracts, crude polysaccharides and crude polysaccharides-free of water crude extracts from Shiitake mush-room (Lentinus edodes) were investigated for their antioxidant capacity in total polyphenolics and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. Total polyphenolics in the crude polysaccharides-free of water crude extracts were higher than that of the other ones. And crude polysaccharides-free of water crude extracts and water crude extracts show high on DPPH free radical scavenging activity. Positive correlations were found between total polyphenolics and their antioxidant activity.

In this study, we investigated the protective effects of Ulva lactuca methanol extracts against ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced DNA damage in HaCaT cells. First, the contents of general and antioxidative nutrient contents of Ulva lactuca were measured. The moisture, carbohydrate, crude protein, crude fat and ash were 14.01%, 44.80%, 23.19%, 3.10% and 14.90%, respectively. Magnesium that acts as DNA repair enzyme cofactor was the most abundant mineral followed by Ca, P and Fe. The total phenolic and anthocyanoside contents of Ulva lactuca were 2.69 mg/g and 0.13 mg/g, respectively. Cells treated with Ulva lactuca methanol extracts for 24 hours post UVB exposure increased cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner compared to the non-treated control. Also, Ulva lactuca methanol extracts decreased the levels of UVB-induced DNA damage such as cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer and DNA damage response (DDR) proteins such as p-p53 and p21. These results suggest that Ulva lactuca methanol extracts comprising physiological active substances such as Mg, polyphenols and anthocyanosides promote DNA repair by regulating genes related with DDR.

The present study was conducted to elucidate the functional property of tea extract obtained from tea extracts, semi-fermented tea(oolong tea) and fermented tea(black tea). Tea extracts exhibited remarkable nitrite-scavenging actions, and the action increased with the increased of the amount of tea extracts. The nitrite-scavenging actionof tea extracts showed pH dependent, highest at pH 1.2 and lowest at pH6.0. The nitrite-scavenging rate in tea extracts/amine/nitrite systems proved to be faster than that in amine/nitrite systems. To screen the nitrite-scavenging factors, tea extracts were fractionated into water-soluble, methanol-soluble, methanol-precipitate and crude catechin fraction. Among these fractions of tea extracts, the crude catechin fraction possessed greater nitrite-scavenging action than the other fractions. The nitrite-scavenging action of tea extracts increased with the contents of total phenols and an absorbance at 280nm, nitrite-scavenging factors were supposed to be and catechins in tea polyphenol compounds.

매실의 개체당 평균 수분 함량은 $88.34{\sim}90.04%$ 범위로서 수확시기에 따른 차이가 없었으며 조단백질과 조지방은 수확시기별로 수확시기가 늦어질수록 함량이 다소 감소하였으나 조섬유는 수확시기가 늦어짐에 따라 함량이 증가하였다. 또한 polyphenol 함량은 매실이 성숙함에 따라 점차 증가하는 경향을 보였다. methanol, water, hexane, ethylacetate 및 ether 추출물의 항균활성 검색 결과 methanol에서 가장 크게 나타났으며 수확시기가 늦어질수록 항균활성은 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 항균활성을 가진 메탄을 추출물의 활성은 $100^{\circ}C$에서 30분 가열한 조건에서도 안정함을 확인하였고, pH 변화에 따른 안정성은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 용매에 따른 전자공여능은 methanol > ethylacetate > water > ether > hexane 순으로 높게 나타났으며 수확시기에 따른 차이는 크지 않았다.

As a part of studios on the Quality control of index components in crude drug preparations, extraction yields of ginseng saponins from crude drug extracts were identified by TLC and quantified by HPLC. So-Shi-Ho-Tang(小柴胡湯), Sa-Kun-Ja-Tang(四君子湯), Yook-Kun-Ja-Tang(六君子湯) and In-sam-Tang(人蔘湯) were extracted with water, 30%-ethanol, 50%-ethanol, 80%-ethanol and absolute ethanol to analyze ginseng saponins in the crude drug extracts prepared with various concentrations of ethanol. Ginseng saponins were extracted considerably more from the extracts with higher concentrations of ethanol than those with water or lower concentrations of ethanol. Extraction yields of ginseng-side-Rb$_1$, -Rb$_2$ and -R$_c$ from four crude drug preparations were the lowest as 4.9~45.9%, 5.0~40.1, and 6.3~43.7% in water extract and the highest as 29.5~62.6%, 26.7~61.4% and 31.4~62.0% in absolute ethanol extract, compared with those of 80%-methanol extracts.
