To investigate the antimicrobial activities of mustard seed(Brassica juncea), a series of solbents were examined for extraction of antimicrobial substances from mustard seed and then antimicrobial substances were identified by simultaneous distillation extraction(SDE) and GC-MS methods. Water and methanol extracts of mustard seed showed antimicrobial activitries against experimental strains while those from hexane extract almost was not observed. The distilled components of mustard seed by SDE method showed strong antimicrobial activities, methanol extract of residues fraction exhibited a little, and water layer with the exception of distilled components showed no antimicrobiol activities. The 30 varieties of distilled components including 3 types of isothiocyanate such as 3-isothiocyanate-1-propene, 4-isothiocyanate-1-butene, and 3-isothiocyanatoethyl benzene were identified from mustard seed.

The water extract of mustard seed was fractionated by solvents with an increase of polarity, and antimicrobial activities of each extracts were examined, and volatile compounds of each extract were identified by GC-MS. When the water extract was fractionated with solvents, the antimicrobial activities were high in the order of chloroform, ethylacetate, hexane, butanol and aqueous layer. In chloroform fraction, 16 volatile compounds, including 2 isothiocyanates such as 3-isothiocyanato- 1-propene and 4-isothiocyanato- 1-butane, 1 nitrile and 4 acids were identified, their contents were higher than other fractions. Twelve, 10, 4 and 7 volatile compounds were identified in ethylaceate, hexane, butanol and water fractions, respectively. The volatile compounds were considerably less in the fractions of butanol and water than others.

겨자의 가수분해 시간에 따른 향균력을 비교하고, 각종 미생물에 대한 겨자 물 추출물의 최소 저해 농도 및 최소 저해 투여량을 측정한 결과 다음과 같았다. 겨자의 자가분해 시간에 따른 물 추출물의 향균성은 처음에 아주 약하게 나타났던 것이 12시간 방치 후 크게 증가하였다. 최대 항균활성은 24시간 방치 후 나타났으며 이후 거의 변하지 않았다. 겨자를 첨가한 물의 산도는 시간이 지남에 따라 증가하였고, 겨자의 농도가 클수록 그 정도가 크게 나타났다. $37^{\circ}C에서$ 24시간 자가분해한 겨자 물 추출물의 MID는 Bacillus subtilils가 $70\mu1/disc로$ 다른 실험 균주에 비하여 낮았으며, 젖산균이 $95\mu1/disc로서$ 높게 나타났다. MIC는 Bacillus subtilils, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium 및 Vibrio parahaemolyticus 균이 $70\mu1/ml로$ 다른 실험 균주에 비하여 낮게 나타났으며, 젖산균 곰팡이에서 $90\mu1/ml로$ 높게 나타났다. 자가분해 시간에 따른 겨자물 추출물의 중류성분은 자가분해 시간이 지남에 다라 점차 증가하는 경향이었고, isothiocyanate 류의 함량은 24시간 때에 최대치를 나타내었다.
