Abstract

Vincamine, one of the major indole alkaloids in vincaminor (Vinca minor L.) is commonly used for treating cerebrovascular diseases. The antioxidant activity of vincaminor extracts and vincamine were measured by 1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and lipid malonaldehyde (MA) assay. Vincaminor leaves were pulverized and extracted with various solvents such as water, methanol, and ethanol. The antioxidant activities of the extracts varied in accordance with solvents and assays. In DPPH assay, the water extract showed the highest antioxidant activity. In lipid MA assay, However, the ethanol extract inhibited MA formation from cod liver oil by 82% at the level of 5,000 ${\mu}g/mL$. Vincamine in the extract was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatogram and the concentration of vincamine was 0.419$\pm$0.005 ${\mu}g/mL$.

빈카마이너 유효 성분인 빈카민은 인돌알카로이드의 일종으로 뇌혈관 질환 치료에 자주 사용 되어 왔다. 빈카마이너의 항산화능을 알아보기 위하여, 빈카마이너 추출액과 빈카민의 항산화능을 DPPH와 lipid MA 측정법으로 측정하였다. 빈카마이너 잎을 분쇄하여 물, 메탄올, 에탄올 용매로 추출하였다. 추출물의 항산화능은 추출용매와 측정방법에 따라 상이한 결과를 보였다. DPPH 방법으로 항산화능을 측정한 결과, 물 추출액에서 가장 높은 항산화능을 보였다. 그러나 lipid MA 측정법에 의한 결과에서는 에탄올 추출액이 5,000 ${\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 대구 간유의 MA 형성을 82%까지 저해시킨 것으로 나타나 가장 높은 항산화능을 보였다. 빈카마이너 추출액 중 빈카민은 HPLC에 의해 분석되었으며 빈카민의 함량은 0.42$\pm$0.005 ${\mu}g/mL$이었다.
