올리브 (Olea europaea L.) 잎은 풍부한 폴리 페놀을 함유하고 있으며, 이는 항산화, 항균, 항 바이러스, 항암 활성을 연관시키고 혈소판 활성화를 억제하는 것으로 보고 되어있다. 올리브 잎은 건강기능성식품 및 기능성 화장품의 원료로 상업적으로 사용되고 있으며, 이러한 건강상의 이점은 올리브 잎의 주요 생리활성 물질인 oleuropein와 관련이 있다. Oleuropein은 항산화, 항노화, 항염증, 항암, 항미생물, 항바이러스, 항죽상동맥혈증, 지질 저하 효과, 혈당 저하 효과, 피부 보호 효과가 보고되어 있다. oleuropein이 올리브 잎의 중요한 화합물 임에도 불구하고 상업용 제품에서 oleuropein 함량을 밝히는 정량적 접근 방법은 아직 없다. 본 연구에서는 UPLC-QTof/MS, PDA, CAD로 개발된 방법을 이용하여 10개의 상업용 올리브 잎 추출물의 성분 및 oleuropein 함량을 분석 하였다. Iridoids (1, 3, 4, 14, and 16-18), coumarin (2), phenylethanoids (5, 9, and 11), flavonoids (6-8, 10, 12, and 13), lignan (15)을 포함한 총 18종의 화합물이 올리브 잎에서 예상되었다. 총 10종의 올리브 잎 추출물 분석은 3종의 제품(A, G, H)에서 제품에서 제시한 oleuropein 함량보다 높게, 5종의 제품(B, E, H, I, J)에서 5-10%의 오차범위로 나타났고 C, D에서 함량 미달로 검출되었다. 본 연구에서 oleuropein의 함량분석이 올리브 잎의 품질 관리에 도움이 될 수 있음을 판단하였다.

This study has shown the screening of anti-bacterial activity of three Indian medicinal plant choloroform : methanol (50:50) solvent leaf extracts (i.e. Azadirachta indica, Ocimum sanctum, and Curcuma longa) with different concentrations (10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, 0.312, and 0.156 mg/ml) under in vitro conditions against fish pathogenic bacteria, Aeromonas hydrophila, Streptococcus iniae, Vibrio harveyi, V. anguillarum, and Edwardsiella tarda isolated from olive flounder farms, Jeju Island, South Korea. The anti-microbial activity of the A. indica and O. sanctum extracts yielded the zones of growth inhibition (ZI) was 3 and 1mm against A. hydrophila at concentration of 0.156 mg/ml when compared to that of tetracycline standard (3 mm). At highest concentration (10 mg/ml) of A. indica, O. sanctum, and C. longa, high inhibition was 9, 7, and 6 mm when compared to that of tetracycline (11 mm) against A. hydrophila. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of A. indica, O. sanctum, and C. longa at 0.156 mg/ml that yield 9, 10, and 13 CFU/ml for A. hydrophila, 16, 22, and 25 CFU/ml for S. iniae and 18, 22, and 23 CFU/ml for E. tarda compared to the tetracycline. At highest concentration (10 mg/ml) of the three extracts was better inhibiting the growth of A. hydrophila, S. iniae and E. tarda. A. indica, O. sanctum, and C. longa were determined to the potential antioxidant activityon the basis of their scavenging activity of the stable 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical. A. indica extract was 0.625 mg/ml which indicated that the strong anti-oxidant activity. However, O. sanctum and C. longa extracts showed weak anti-oxidant activity at this concentration. Hence, in vitro assay among the pathogens, A. hydropila is better inhibitory activity of the extracts. It is evident that the Indian medicinal plants extracts were subjected to its effectiveness against A. hydrophila, S. iniae, and E.tarda at low concentrations. The obtained results in the present study suggested that the Indian plant extracts is a prevention tools for Korean olive flounder aquaculture pathogens and its need further advance investigation.

Treatment of hydatid disease is mainly surgical, with medical treatment being reserved as a coadjuvant treatment. Use of effective scolicidal agents during surgery of cystic echinococcosis is essential to reduce the recurrence rate. The goal of this study was to evaluate the in vitro scolicidal effects of hydroalcoholic extracts of $Satureja$ $khuzestanica$ leaves and aqueous extracts of $Olea$ $europaea$ leaves on hydatid cyst protoscolices. $Echinococcus$ $granulosus$ protoscolices were collected from the liver of sheep infected with the hydatid cyst. Various concentrations of plant extracts were used in different exposure times for viability assay of protoscolices. Among the olive leaf extracts tested, 0.1% and 0.01% concentrations had strong scolicidal effects in 120 min. $S.$ $khuzestanica$ 0.1% had very strong scolicidal effects in 30, 60, and 120 min of exposure times and the mortality rate decreased with the lower concentration. The finding have shown that the scolicidal activity of $S.$ $khuzestanica$ against cystic echinococosis protoscolices were more effective, while the $O.$ $europaea$ extract showed less effects.

We prepared and investigated a biosynthesized nanoparticulate system with high adsorption and release capacity of letrozole. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were biosynthesized using olive leaf extract. Cysteine was capped AgNPs to increase the adsorption capacity and suitable interaction between nanoparticles and drug. Morphology and size of nanoparticles were confirmed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Nanoparticles were spherical with an average diameter of less than 100 nm. Cysteine capping was successfully confirmed by Fourier transform infrared resonance (FTIR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis (CHN). Also, the factors of letrozole adsorption were optimized and the linear and non-linear forms of isotherms and kinetics were studied. Confirmation of the adsorption data of letrozole by cysteine capped nanoparticles in the Langmuir isotherm model indicated the homogeneous binding site of modified nanoparticles surface. Furthermore, the adsorption rate was kinetically adjusted to the pseudo-second-order model, and a high adsorption rate was observed, indicating that cysteine coated nanoparticles are a promising adsorbent for letrozole delivery. Finally, the kinetic release profile of letrozole loaded modified nanoparticles in simulated gastric and intestinal buffers was studied. Nearly 40% of letrozole was released in simulated gastric fluid with pH 1.2, in 30 min and the rest of it (60%) was released in simulated intestinal fluid with pH 7.4 in 10 h. These results indicate the efficiency of the cysteine capped AgNPs for adsorption and release of drug letrozole for breast cancer therapy.
