Abstract

Objectives: The experiment was to estimate the value of Saengmaegsan as a therapeutic anti-aging agent with an analysis of ingredients and their bio-activating effects by enzymologic methods. Methods: We analyzed anti-aging effects of the ingredients of Saengmaegsan being Liriope Platyphylla, Schizandrae Chinensis, and Schizandrae Chinensis. Results: In Liriope Platyphylla and Schizandrae Chinensis, reducing sugar concentration was shown at the highest level. Of mineral contents, K+ and Na+ were the highest in Saengmaegsan and each ingredient also, and then Ca++ and Al. The amount of polyphenol showed was in order Schizandrae Chinensis > Saengmaegsan > Panax Ginseng > Liriope Platyphylla. The electron donating ability of Schizandrae Chinensis doubled that of Saengmaegsan and Panax Ginseng, at the same time that one per 1 ml in Saengmaegsan was significantly found the greatest level as compared to each single ingredient. SOD-like activity was high in Saengmaegsan and Schizandrae Chinensis. SOD-like activity of Saengmaegsan was higher than in single components. Nitric oxide inhibition in pH 1.2 was high in Saengmaegsan and Schizandrae Chinensis, and for per 1 ml it showed the same pattern as above. In pH 3.0 the result was not different from in pH 1.2. Xanthine oxidase inhibition was high in Schizandrae Chinensis and for per 1 ml showed the greatest activity in Liriope Platyphylla. Tyrosinase inhibition in Omija was the most noticeable, and for per 1 ml was Liriope Platyphylla more than any others. Conclusions: With this analysis of ingredients, it is proven that Saengmaegsan and each component fosters antioxidation. On the whole, the composite prescription Saengmaegsan was superior to each individual component.
