A molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) using (+)catechin ((+)C) as a template and acrylamide (AM) as a functional monomer was prepared. Acetonitrile was used as the porogen with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the crosslinker and 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as the initiator. The adsorption isotherms in the MIP were measured and the parameters of the equilibrium isotherms were estimated by linear and nonlinear regression analyses. The linear equation for original concentration and adsorpted concentrations was then expressed, and the adsorption equilibrium data were correlated into Langmuir, Freundlich, quadratic, and Langmuir Extension isotherm models. The mixture compounds of (+)C and epicatechin (EC) show competitive adsorption on specific binding sites of the (+)catechin-MIP. The adsorption concentrations of (+)C, epicatechin (EC), epicatechin gallate (ECG), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), on the (+)catechin-molecular imprinted polymer were compared. Through the analysis, the (+)catechin-molecular imprinted polymer showed higher adsorption ability than blank polymer which was synthesized molecular imprinted polymer without (+)catechin. Furthermore, the competitive Langmuir isotherms were applied to the mixture compounds of (+)C and EC.

The extract of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica cortex has known as natural anti-inflammatory substance in East Asia. For the identification of antimicrobial substance, it was extracted by using methanol and fractionated by using different organic solvents. The fraction of butanol was represented the highest antimicrobial activities. Therefore, the butanol fraction was purified and identified the chemical structure by $^1$H and $^{13}$ C-NMR spectra, FT-IR and EI/MS spectroscopies. The isolated antimicrobial substance was identified as cis-2-[3,4-dihydroxy phenyl]-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-3,5,7-triol, which has commonly known as (-)epicatechin. Its minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes were shown as 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, respectively.

This study attempted to establish a High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis method for the determination of (-)-epicatechin gallate as a part of the quality control for the development of functional cosmetic materials from Penthorum chinense Pursh extracts. HPLC was performed on a Unison US-C18 column ($4.6{\times}250mm$, $5{\mu}m$) with a gradient elution of 0.05% (v/v) trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and methyl alcohol at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min at $30^{\circ}C$. The analyte was detected at 280 nm. The HPLC method was performed in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guideline (version 4, 2005) of analytical procedures with respect to specificity, precision, accuracy, and linearity. The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.11 and 0.33 mg/mL, respectively. Calibration curves showed good linearity (r2 > 0.9999), and the precision of analysis was satisfied (less than 0.6%). Recoveries of quantified compounds ranged from 99.51 to 101.92%. This result indicates that the established HPLC method is very useful for the determination of marker compound in P. chinense Pursh extracts.

계혈등으로부터 6종의 항균활성물질을 분리 정제하여 화학구조를 결정하였다. 계혈등 시료를 음건하여 80% aq. MeOH로 추출하고 감압 농축한 후 n-hexane, EtOAc, n-BuOH, 그리고 $H_2O$ 층으로 분획하였다. 각 분획을 이용하여 벼 도열별, 벼 잎집무늬마름병, 토마토 잿빛곰팡이병, 토마토 역병, 밀 붉은녹병, 보리 흰가루병 등 6가지 식물병에 대하여 식물병 방제효과를 검정한 결과, EtOAc 층이 가장 강한 활성을 보였으며, 벼 도열병, 토마토 잿빛 곰팡이병, 토마토 역병 및 보리 흰가루병에 대하여 80% 이상의 활성을 보였다. EtOAc층을 대상으로 silica gel chromatography 및 preparative TLC, HPLC 등을 이용하여 6종의 화합물을 분리, 정제하고 $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, ESI-MS/MS, HMQC, $^1H-^1H$ COSY의 기기분석을 통해 ethanone, hydroxytyrosol, epicatechin, procyanidin B-2, dimethoxy daizein과 formononetin 으로 구조를 동정하였다. Epicatechin을 제외한 나머지 화합물들은 계혈등에서 처음으로 분리되었다. 분리한 물질들의 in vitro 및 in vivo 항균활성에 대한 연구를 진행하고 있다.

본 연구는 낙지다리(Penthorum chinense Pursh) 추출물을 기능성 화장품소재로 개발하기 위해 (-)-epicatechin gallate를 지표성분으로 선정하고, 품질관리를 위해 High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)를 이용하여 분석법을 개발하였다. 분석에 사용된 칼럼은 Unison $US-C_{18}$ ($4.6{\times}250mm$, $5{\mu}m$, Imtakt, USA)을 사용하여 0.05% (v/v) trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)와 메탄올을 이동상 조건으로 컬럼 온도는 $30^{\circ}C$ 에서 유속은 1.0 mL/min 로 검출파장은 280 nm에서 검출하였다. International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) 가이드라인(version 4, 2005)을 근거로 하여 특이성, 직선성, 정밀성, 정확성, 검출한계 및 정량한계를 분석하여 분석방법을 검증하였다. 검출한계 및 정량한계는 각각 0.11 mg/mL 및 0.33 mg/mL로 나타났으며, 검량곡선은 상관계수값이 0.9999로 양호한 직선성을 보였고, 정밀성 분석결과도 0.6% 이하로 확인하였다. 또한, 회수율은 99.51 ~ 101.92% 범위로 정확성이 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서, 본 분석법은 낙지다리 추출물의 지표성분의 분석법은 적합한 시험법임이 검증되었다.

Antibacterial activities of the major phenolic components from Camellia sinensis L. were investigated against several pathogenic microorganisms including Gram-positive strains like Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Streptococcus pyogens 308A; and Gram-negative strains like Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Escherichia coli 078, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 9027, and Enterobacter cloacae 1321E. The MIC values demonstrate that both (-)-epicatechin and (-)-epigallocatechin were more considerably toxic against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 than the other two catechins like (-)-epicatechingallate and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate. (-)-Epicatechingallate and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate were most inhibitory against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922. As a result, (-)-epicatechin showed predominant antibacterial activities among tea varieties. The contents of major polyphenolic components such as four catechins, theaflavin, and quercetin were different according to fermentation processes. The total contents of four catechins were ranged from 13.81 to 1.33%, with (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate being dominant among tea varieties; theaflavin was found the characteristic pigment in fully-fermented black tea.
