In recent year, We are concerned about anti-aging, disease-protection, long-life, many methods are used in solving this problem. And Those are related with antioxidative ability. Recently, We heard that Cucurbita moschata Duch. has anti-hypertensive effect and good for health. So I let made a experiment for this result of the anti-oxidant effect of Cucurbita moschata Duch. used for 3 methods, those are DPPH radical scavenging activity, Nitric oxide(NO) radical scavenging activity and Bovine serum albumin(BSA). The results of this study were as follows: We measured level of DPPH radical scavenging activity. And we obtained results that the ability of DPPH radical's elimination was increased when concentration of Cucurbita moschata Duch. was to $20\;mg/m{\ell}$. We measured level of Nitric oxide(NO) radical scavenging activity. And we founded that the ability of NO radical's elimination was increased when concentration of Cucurbita moschata Duch. was to $10\;mg/m{\ell}$. When we inspected antioxidation with Bovine serum albumin(BSA). And we obtained that antioxidative ability was increased after$2.5\;mg/m{\ell}$ of Cucurbita moschata Duch.. So I guess that Cucurbita moschata Duch. has effect of antioxidative ability. Hereafter we need differential experimental methods for evidence of antioxidative effect on Cucurbita moschata Duch.

This study was carried out to investigate the structure of antioxidative constituents and the free radical scavenging effect of the main ingredients from Galla Rhois(Rhus javanica Linne). Antioxidative activities of n-hexane, EtOAc and BuOH extracts of Galla Rhois were similar or even higher than that of natural (tocopherol) or synthetic antioxidant (BHA). It is suggested that major fractions for the antioxidative activity of Galla Rhois were the n-hexane, EtOAc and BuOH extract compartments. In the subsequently experiment, one active compound from n-hexane extract, three active compounds from EtOAc extract and one active compound from BuOH extract were isolated. Their chemical structures were identified as syringic acid, protocatechuic acid, gallic acid methylester, gallic acid and $1,2,3,4,6- penta-O-galloyl-{\beta}-D-glucose$ on the basis of the speculation of spectral data and chemical reaction. Among the compounds, protocatechuic acid, gallic acid methylester and $1,2,3,4,6- penta-O-galloyl-{\beta}-D-glucose$ showed most potent radical scavenging effect using DPPH method.

Objectives : Free radical metabolism seems to occupy a remarkably common position in the mechanisms of aging and aging related disease. This study was designed to find out whether Juglandis Semen herbal acupuncture solution (JSHAS) can scavenge Nitric Oxide (NO) or not. Methods : SNAP was used as NO generator. NO concentration was estimated after 2, 6, 12 and 24 hrs in no treatment group, after treatment with Vitamin C or 1, 10, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ of JSHAS. Results : There was no significant scavenging effect of JSHAS on NO after 2, 6 hrs but significant effect on NO in 10, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ group. Conclusions : These results suggest that JSHAS has scavenging effect on NO. This study shows that JSHAS can be used for aging related disease and further studies are required to investigate the antioxidative effects of it.

This study was conducted to investigate electron donating ability, antioxdative activity and nitrite-scavenging effect of solvent extracts from Gyrophora esculenta. The phenolic compounds of diethylether, butanol, petroleum ether and hexane extracts were 194.20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 98.80$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 1.60$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml and 0.20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, respectively. Electron donating abilities of diethyleter and butanol extracts from Gyrophora esculaenta were 80.79% and 72.81%, respectively. Absorption of DPPH by diethyleter and butanol extracts sharply increaed at initial stage. Antioxidative activities of fiethylether and butanol extracts by peroxide values are rather high as compared to those of control, but low s compared to those of BHA. Nitrite-scavenging abilities of diethylether, butanol and petroleum ether from Gyrophora esculenta were 96.07%, 77.39% and 15.07%, respectively.

To examine the free radical scavenging activities from buckwheat, Suwon No. 5 was extracted with various solvents. The seed of Suwon No. 5 had a high contents of carbohydrate, but the vegetable of that had a 31.4% of protein, 28.6% of ash and 25.7% carbohydrate as moisture free basis. Phenols contents of vegetable extracts had higher than those of seed extracts. Acetone extract of vegetable showed the greatest electron donating ability. Butanol and acetone extracts of vegetable showed high inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation. Acetone extract of vegetable has also excellent activity in the superoxide radical scavenging activity by xanthine/xanthine oxidase-cytochrome c reduction system. The inhibitory effects of extracts on xanthine oxidase were measured. Acetone extract had the strongest inhibitory effect on xanthine oxidase and $IC_{50}$ was 2.2$\mu\textrm{g}$.

This study was conducted to investigate the physiological activity of acai berry (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) extracts from three different solvents (water, methanol, and ethanol). We measured total polyphenol and total flavonoid content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, nitrite scavenging activity, metal chelating effect, and reducing power. The extraction yield from water, methanol, and ethanol was 17.10, 9.50, and 37.51%, respectively. The highest total polyphenol content (10.54 mg/100 g) and total flavonoid contents (1.88 mg/100 g) was observed in water extract. DPPH radical scavenging activity was the highest in both water extract (72.03%) and methanol extract (74.79%) at levels of 5 mg/mL, which was similar to that of BHT (78.90%). Water extract yielded the highest metal chelating effect (92.54%) and reducing power (1.09) at levels of 5 mg/mL. Taken together, these findings suggest that extracts of acai berry can be used as functional food materials with antioxidative and nitrite scavenging activities.
