Glutathione Sulphydryl Contents and Antioxidant Activities of Lactobacillus spp. and Bacillus coagulans

Lactobacillus spp.와 Bacillus coagulans의 Glutathione Sulphydryl 함유율과 황산화 활성

The antioxidative ability on the basis of reduced glutathione sulphydryl(GSH) level, the inhibition activities of linoleic acid peroxidation of cell free extract of Lactobacillus spp. and Bacillus spp. have been determined; Lactobacillus casei CU4114 contained the highest level of GSH among the probiotic strains with 25.15 ${\mu}$mole/g. Significantly high level of GSH occured in the intracellular cell free extract of Lactobacillus rhamnosus CU4201, Lactobacillus plantarum CU4203. The antioxidant activity and inhibition of linoleic acid peroxidation of cell free extract of Lactobacillus spp. and Bacillus spp. by thiobarbituric acid(TBA) assay have been shown to be significantly differed depending on the strains(P>0.01). Intracellular cell free extracts of L. acidophilus CU4111, L. casei CU4114, and strains of Bacillus coacillus revealed a significantly intensive inhibitory activity in the linoleic acid peroxidation reactions. Spearmans' rank correlation between inhibitory activity on linoleic acid peroxidation and cellular GSH levels of Lactobacillus spp. was analysed and the correlation quotient was 0.65 which means a significant positive correlation.

활성산소의 세포막 파괴 효과로부터 보호작용과 항산화 활성이 강한 균주를 선별하기 위하여 33균주에 대한 세포네 glutathione 함유율과 linoleic acid 산화억제활성을 측정하였다. Lactobacillus casei CU4114 25.15 umol/g으로 가장 높은 함유율을 보이고 있으며Lactobacillus rhamnosus CU4201, Lactobacillus plantarum CU4203이 14.0umol/g으로 통계적인 유의성을 나타내는 수준으로 높은 함유율을 나타내었다. 포자형 성균주중의 glutathione 함유율 측정 결과 Lactobacillus sporogenes CU4109, Sporolactobacillus inulinus CU4110 은 Bacillus coagulans 균주의 GSH 함유율보다 유의성이 인정되는 높은 함유율을 나타내었다. L. acidophilus CU4111, L. casei CU4114, L. brevis CU4206, L. helveticus Cu4231은 Lactobacillus spp. 중 높은 항산화 활성을 나타내었고 Bacillus coagulans의 항산화 활성범위는 6.02${\sim}$51.72%로 나타났으며 Bacillus coagulans 균주의 항산화 활성이 Lactobacillus spp.의 산화억제활성보다 높은 성향을 나타내었다.
