Cancer is one of the leading cause of mortality in India as well as worldwide. The management of cancer by conventional therapy has shown life threatening adverse effects. The researchers are now exploring the natural way of treatment. Unani system of medicine have rich literature for cancer and many compound formulations have been described in this system. Unani system of medicine is based on holistic approach and treat human being as a unit with natural herbs, mineral and animal origin drugs. An important compound Unani formulation (CUF) from the literature has been chosen to explore the Unani claim of its anticancer activity. The phytochemical constituents were assessed using standard phytochemical screening method. Antioxidant property of this formulation was assessed by DPPH assay. The DPPH free radical scavenging assay was carried out by colorimetric method and ascorbic acid was taken as a positive control. Three different extracts of CUF on different concentrations were used to screening on human breast cancer (BCC) MCF-7 cell line. For the estimation of in-vitro cytotoxic potency of the investigated extracts was assessed on MTT assay by using trypan blue method and paclitaxel was used as the standard. Hydro-ethanolic (HE) extract showed highest free radical scavenging activity among all extracts. DPPH Assay showed substantial antioxidant activity of these extracts in hydro-ethanol extract at 1㎍ concentration of CUF. The CUF showed antioxidant and anticancer activity. The claim made by Unani physician has been proved.

This study is focused on the evaluation of growth parameters, total polyphenol content (TPC), chlorophyll content as well as the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity of young barley seedling (YBS) affected by elicitation. Salicylic acid (SA), methyl jasmonate (MJ), amino acid liquid fertilizer (ALF) and microbial metabolism activator (MMA) were used. Elicitation was conducted for two times and various concentrations were used in this study. The result revealed that, MJ 1 ml/L treated-YBS gave the longest seedling length of 1.33 cm, followed by the ones treated with SA 1.38 mg/L and ALF 2 ml/L, respectively. ALF 3 ml/L treatment gave the highest fresh weight of 10 seedlings, followed by MJ 5 ml/L and SA 13.8 mg/L treatment with 1.56 g, 1.55 g and 1.53 g respectively. SA 138.12 mg/L elicitor treated-YBS gave the highest Chl a, Chl b content of $8.57{\mu}g/mg$ and $3.83{\mu}g/mg$, respectively while the highest carotenoid content was found in MJ ml/L treatment with $1.62{\mu}g/mg$. Among elicitor treated-YBS, SA showed better TPC. The highest TPC was found in SA 1.38 mg/L treatment with 18.82 mg/g TAE. Likewise, SA 1.38 mg/L showed the highest DPPH free radical scavenging activity among all the treatments. However, the lowest TPC was found in ALF 1ml/L treated-YBS with 9.46 mg/g TAE, which was even lower than the control (14.31 mg/g TAE).

A kojic acid derivative, kojic acid 7-O-$\beta$-D-tetraacetylglucopyranoside(KTG) was synthesized. Regio-and stereo-selective glycosylation at 7-postion in kojic acid with $\beta$-D-pentaacetylglucose was achieved with high yield(80％) by the use of Lewis acid and organic base in nonpolar solvent. KTG was hydrolyzed in methanol by the aid of sodium methoxide to give kojic acid 7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside(KGP). KGP is freely soluble in water and soluble in methanol and ethanol. Its structure was comfirmed by $^1$H-NMR and $^{13}$ C-NMR. Tyrosinase activity inhibition of KGP was measured with mushroom tyrosinase compared with ascorbic acid, kojic acid and arbutin. KGP showed higher tyrosinase inhibition activity($IC_{50}$/=33.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) than ascorbic acid(63.2 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and arbutin(91.8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) but lower inhibition activity than kojic acid(8.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). To test free-radical scavenging activity, we used 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) as a free-radical source. Free-radical scavenging activity of KGP was very low($SC_{50}$/>1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) compared with ascorbic acid($SC_{50}$/=2.68 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and arbutin($SC_{50}$/=180$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). Melanin formation inhibition of KGP was measured in B16 melanoma, compared with kojic acid, arbutin and Vitamin C. Inhibition activity of KGP for melanin formation was not found within test concentrations.

This study was carried out to evaluate the quality characteristics of cookies added with various concentrations (0, 1, 3 and 5%) of ginseng leaf powder. The pH of the cookies significantly decreased with increased ginseng leaf powder concentrations (p<0.05), but the density of cookies showed no significant differences. Spread factor, loss rate, and leaving rate of cookies decreased according to the amount of added ginseng leaf powder. The lightness and yellowness of cookies decreased as the concentration of the ginseng leaf powder increased whereas no significant difference in the redness was found with increased ginseng leaf concentration. In the texture analysis, the hardness of the cookies increased according to the concentration of ginseng leaf. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of the cookies significantly increased with increased ginseng leaf concentration (p<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, sensory scores for color, taste and overall acceptability were highest in the 3% ginseng leaf cookies. Thus, our results suggested that the optimum amount of ginseng leaf powder to add to cookies was 3%.

본 연구에서는 1.1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl radical ($^{\cdot}OH$), 그리고 superoxide radical ($O_2{^-}$) 소거능 실험을 통해 쑥부쟁이의 항산화 효과를 평가하였다. 쑥부쟁이는 에탄올로 추출한 뒤, n-hexane, methylene chloride ($CH_2Cl_2$), ethylacetate (EtOAc), 그리고 n-butanol (n-BuOH)로 분획하였다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능 실험에서 모든 추출 및 분획물이 $10-100{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 농도 의존적으로 라디칼 소거능이 증가하였으며, 특히 EtOAc 분획물은 가장 강한 DPPH 라디칼 소거능을 나타내었다. 또한 쑥부쟁이는 $50{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 80% 이상의 $^{\cdot}OH$ 라디칼 소거율을 보였다. 특히 EtOAc 분획물은 $0.03{\mu}g/mL$에서 IC50 값을 나타내어 추출물과 분획물 중 가장 강한 $^{\cdot}OH$ 라디칼 소거능을 보여주었다. 또한, EtOAc 분획물은 $O_2{^-}$ 라디칼 소거능에서도 가장 강한 소거활성을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 쑥부쟁이가 산화스트레스로 인한 질병을 예방하는 천연 항산화제로서의 활용 가능성이 있음을 보여준다.

In this study, we assessed the antioxidant activities and quality characteristics of cookies containing various concentrations (0, 1, 3 and 5%) of Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf powder. Antioxidant activity was estimated based on DPPH free radical scavenging activity and total content of phenolic compounds in Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf powder and cookies. The quality characteristics of Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf cookies were estimated based on spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, color, texture and sensory evaluation, polyphenol contents, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, as well as spread factor of cookies significantly increased. L value, b value and hardness of cookies decreased with increasing Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf powder content. Finally, the sensory evaluation showed the highest scores for cookies containing 3% Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf powder. From these results, we suggest that Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus leaf is a good ingredient for increasing consumer acceptability as well as the functionality of cookies.
