The objective of this study was to investigate antioxidant activities of freeze-dried, main root, and fine root of ginseng (Panax ginseng CA. Meyer), which were extracted with various solvents including ethanol, methanol, and water. Ethanol extracts in both parts showed the most powerful scavenging activities against DPPH radicals. Especially, ethanol extract of fine root had higher reducing power and antioxidant capacity than that of main root. The highest antioxidant activity in linoleic acid emulsion system was also observed in fine root extracted with ethanol, followed by methanol and water. Both ferrous ion chelating activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) of extracts were increased with the increase of extracts concentration. These results suggest that ethanol extract of fine root of ginseng has the most effective antioxidant capacity compared to the methanol and water extracts tested in the present study. Thus it can be applied for the effective extraction of functional material from ginseng for the usage of pharmaceutical and/or food industries.

This study was executed to evaluate the immune activity, nitrite scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity against extracts of various concentration of ethanol solvent from Codonopsis lanceolata cultured at 6 local regions. The immune responses from both human T and B cell line was significantly enhanced in the cell growth compared to control while the cell growth was influenced at a certain period of culture. The results revealed that the cell growth of both human T and B cell was altered in a time dependent manner. The nitrite scavenging activity of ethanol extracts from various solvent concentration of C. lanceolata were affected by pH. At a pH of 1.2, the nitrite scavenging effect of all of the extracts tested observed higher than that of the other two pH ranges. There was no distinct detection of nitrite scavenging effects of the pH range 6.0. The ABTS radical scavenging activity was progressively increased in a dose-dependent manner, and the activity was the highest in 100% ethanol extract. The result from this investigation suggests that the extract of Codonopsis lanceolata could be an addition to basic medicine for immune modulation and natural food additives.

In order to establish effective extracting method of ginseng extracts from fresh ginseng, the yield, chemical composition, physical properties and organoleptic quality of the extracts, which are extracted with various concentrations of ethanol, were investigated. The results are as follows : 1. The yield of the extracts was increased with decreasing the concentration of ethanol as solvent. As in case of water as a solvents, the highest yield was achieved when 23.64% of water was used. The yield were 12.3% and 9.05%, when 70% and 90% of ethanol were used, respectively lively. 2. Crude protein content is the highest level and nitrogen·free extracts content is the lowest at the concentration of 50% ethanol. Lipid was increased linerly while ash was decreased as increment of ethanol concentration. 3. Viscosity and residue of the extracts also decreased in accordance with the increament of ethanol concentration and the transmittance value and pH of extract solutions were almost similar except transmittance value of the water extracts. 4. The extracts extracted with 70% ethanol gave the best result of sensory test. The total sensory test score of each extracts (70%, 90%, 50%, 0% and 30%) were 70, 65, 50, 46 and 41, respectively.

본 연구에서는 전자코를 이용하여 추출용매, 추출온도 등의 추출조건에 따른 배초향의 부위별 추출물들에 대한 향기성분의 차이를 측정하고 그 데이터를 관능검사와 비교 분석하였다. 같은 배초향 부위라도 추출온도가 다르면 추출물들간의 향기 차이가 있었으며, 배초향 부위에 따라서도 추출물들의 향기 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 동일한 부위에 대한 에탄올추출물과 다른 용매추출과는 향기차이가 있는 것처럼 보이지만 그 차이는 에탄을 자체의 향에 의한 차이로서 실질적으로 같은 배초향 부위에 대해서는 추출용매에 따른 추출물간의 향기 차이는 별로 없는 것으로 판단된다. 전체적으로 배초향 추출물들의 관능적 특성은 박하냄새, 풀냄새, 박하맛, 한약맛, 단맛 등이 대표적으로 강하게 느껴지며, 추출용매, 추출온도, 추출부위에 따라 관능적 특성이 다르게 나타났다. 종합적으로 판단하면 전자코에 의한 향기성분의 차이를 분석한 결과를 관능검사 결과와 연계하여 비교 분식해 보면 전자코에서 차이가 나는 향기성분의 실체가 박하냄새, 단맛 등과 같이 구체적으로 어떤 맛이나 냄새가 더 강하고 약한지를 분성하게 알 수 있었다.

Sabaek-san has been used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases derived from the cold with high fever, cough, and lung dysfunction in Korea and China. There is no study for the comparison between different solvent extracts of Sabaek-san. We made two samples, one is Sabaek-san water extract (SBSW) and the other is Sabaek-san 30% EtOH extract (SBSE). Both extracts inhibited inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) protein, reduced iNOS-derived nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Also, they reduced tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$) and interleukin-$1{\beta}$ (IL-$1{\beta}$) production. These anti-inflammatory effects caused by induction of heme oxygenase (HO)-1. HO-1 enzyme plays an important role of cellular anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory systems. The induction of HO-1 is primarily regulated at the transcriptional level, and its induction by various inducers is related to the nuclear transcription factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). However, it is worth taking note that SBSE has more powerful anti-inflammatory effects than SBSW. In this study we suggest that different solvent extraction makes different therapeutic actions.

The physiologically relevant functional properties of various solvent extracts from Salicornia herbacea leaves were investigated by measuring lipid peroxidation, DPPH radical scavenging, nitrite scavenging, and xanthine oxidase inhibition. Ethyl ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions obtained from the 80% aqueous ethanol extracts of Salicornia herbacea leaves showed strong antioxidative activities in linoleic acid methyl esters. Peroxide values (POV) were not significantly different among the samples treated with the different fractions; the incubation time required to reach a peroxide value of 80 meq/kg was about 40 hrs. However, control linoleic acid methyl esters had POV of more than 480 meq/kg after 40 hrs. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the ethyl acetate fraction was much more effective than diethyl ether, n-butanol, chloroform and water fractions, with an $IC_{50}$/ of 279 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, but less effective than ascorbic acid ($IC_{50}$/ : 67 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL). The nitrite scavenging activities of all fractions increased as pH decreased. Among the fractions, nitrite scavenging activities of diethyl ether and ethyl acetate fractions at pH 1.2 were highest at 59.0 and 56.2%, respectively. The diethyl ether fraction obtained from the 80% aqueous ethanol extract of Salicornia herbacea loaves was the most effective inhibitor of xanthine oxidase of all the solvent extracts at 84% inhibition for a 1 mg/mL concentration. These results suggest that Salicornia herbacea leaf extracts may be effective antioxidants, not only in food stability, but also in human health.

This study was designed to investigate the role of onion as a natural antioxidant. Onion was distinguished as yellow onion peel and onion flesh. Onion samples were extracted with 5 different kinds of solvents such as water, 70% ethanol, 99.9%ethanol, 99.9% methanol, and 96% butanol in order to select optimal extraction solvents, In this part of study linoleic acid was used s an model system for the purpose of determining the antioxidant activities. The optimal extraction rate of various solvents containing onion samples was determined by measuring extraction yield, electron donating ability(EDA), thiobarbituric acid(TBA), and thiocyanate, which are common methods for measuring activity. As a result 70% ethanol was shown as the most effective solvent.

Two major oleananesaponins in Bupleuri radix, saikosaponin $\alpha$ and d, were extracted at various solvent compositions and leaching temperatures. Solvent composition was varied at 0 to 100%(v/v) of ethanol-water and methanol-water, whereas leaching temperature was adjusted to te range of 25~45$^{\circ}C$. The most effective extractant and leaching temperature were 70% ethanol and 45$^{\circ}C$, respectively. However, no major differences in saikosaponin content and cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibition were found at various leaching times. The cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitions were alo the highest when 70% ethanol was used as the extractant.

산사에 함유되어 있는 생리활성 물질의 특성을 알아보고 70% methanol, 70% ethanol, chloroform:methanol(CM, 2:1, v/v), n-butanol 및 ethyl acetate(EA)의 5가지 용매를 사용하여 추출한 추출물의 용매별 항산화 활성 측정을 통하여 산사의 항산화 활성 및 천연 기능성 식품 재료로서의 가치를 검토하고자 본 실험을 수행하였다. 산사 과육의 total phenol 함량은 70% methanol, 70% ethanol, CM, EA, n-butanol 추출물 순으로 높게 나타났으며, 특히 70% methanol 및 70% ethanol 추출물은 각각 71.46 mg/g, 70.41 mg/g의 높은 함량을 보였다. Total flavonoid 함량은 CM(1.63 mg/g), n-butanol(1.59 mg/g), 70% methanol(1.26 mg/g), 70% ethanol(1.26 mg/g) 및 EA(1.12 mg/g) 순으로 높게 측정되었다. $NO_2$ radical 소거 활성은 total phenol 함량과 동일한 경향으로 나타났으며, ${\beta}$-carotene에서의 항산화 활성은 70% methanol, 70% ethanol, n-butanol, CM, EA 추출물, superoxide dismutase(SOD) 유사 활성은 70% methanol, 70% ethanol, CM, n-butanol, EA 추출물 순으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 대부분 70% methanol 및 70% ehtnaol 추출물에서 활성이 높게 측정되었으며, 이는 산사 속에 함유되어 있는 total phenol 및 flavonoid와 같은 항산화 성분 때문인 것으로 추정되며, 특히 total phenol에 의한 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 산사는 항산화제 및 기능성 식품 소재로 활용 가능성이 높을 것으로 사료된다.

버섯류는 기호식품으로서의 성격과 기능성식품으로서의 성격을 동시에 갖는 매우 독특한 식품소재로서 본 연구에서는 국내에서 자생하는 8종류의 버섯에서 항충치 활성성분을 조사해 보았으며, 더불어 높은 항충치활성을 가진 추출물을 얻고자 다양한 용매를 이용, 최적의 용매조성을 탐색해 보았다. Chloroform, methanol, acetone, ethyl acetate 및 증류수를 용매로 사용하였으며, 이들 추출물의 S. mutans에 대한 항균 효과와 glucosyltransferase (GTase) 활성 억제효과를 살펴보았다. 표고버섯, 영지버섯 및 만가닥버섯 추출물이 상대적으로 높은 항충치활성을 나타내었으며, 추출용매에 의한 항균효과를 조사해본 결과, chloroform, methanol, ethyl acetate로 추출한 버섯 추출물에서 상대적으로 높은 항균효과를 보여주었다. 8종의 버섯 중 항균효과가 뛰어나고 GTase 활성 억제효과가 높은 만가닥(Lyopyllum ulmarium) 버섯으로부터 chloroform, methanol 및 ethyl acetate 추출물을 얻어 항충치활성을 조사하였다. S. mutans에 대한 만가닥 버섯의 최대 항균효과를 얻기 위해 심플렉스 중심 합성 계획법(simplex centroid design)을 이용하여 최적의 추출용매조성을 살펴본 결과, chloroform, methanol 및 ethyl acetate 3가지 용매를 모두 동일한 비율(1:1:1)로 혼합하여 추출한 추출물에서 가장 높은 항균효과가 나타났다. 만가닥버섯추출물은 항충치 소재로서 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 버섯추출물의 항충치 효과는 추출용매에 의해 영향을 받으므로 버섯에서 항충치활성물질을 얻고자 할 때에는 추출용매선택이 매우 중요할 것으로 사료된다.
