Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate total polyphenols, total flavonoid, and DPPH radical scavenging activity in 26 species of Korean natural plants and 14 species of medicinal plant extracts. The plant containing the highest total polyphenols and total flavonoids were Plantago asiatica, and Lespedeza cuneata G. Don, respectively. The content of polyphenols and flavonoids in natural plants was the highest in Lespedeza cuneata G. Don, which also demonstrated high DPPH radical scavenging activity. In medicinal plant extract, Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill and Artemisiae Asiaticae Herba had the highest level of total polyphenols (194.60 and 203.92 mg/g extract, respectively) and DPPH radical scavenging activity. Diospyros kaki Thunb and Dryopteris crassirhizoma did not contain high levels of total polyphenols (112.98, 121.46 mg/g extract, respectively) and flavonoids (46.10, 58.69 mg/g extract respectively), but DPPH radical scavenging activity was relatively high. Further study regarding plants that exhibit higher total polyphenols, total flavonoid, and DPPH radical scavenging activity is needed.

본 연구에서는 전통적으로 약으로써 이용되었거나 민간요법으로 사용되던 식물을 문헌고찰을 통해 40여종(자생식물 26종과 생약식물 14종)을 선발하여, 폴리페놀과 플라보노이드 함량 측정 및 DPPH 라디칼 소거능을 측정하였다. 자생식물인 비수리의 폴리페놀(228.90 mg/g extract)과 플라보노이드 함량(90.15 mg/g extract)이 가장 높았으며, DPPH 라디칼 소거능(75.69%)이 모두 높게 나타났다. 감나무와 관중의 폴리페놀 함량(감나무 112.98 mg/g extract, 관중 121.46 mg/g extract)과 플라보노이드 함량(감나무 46.10 mg/g extract, 관중 58.69 mg/g extract)은 높은 편은 아니었으나, DPPH라디칼 소거능은 각각 72.87%와 79.50%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 생약식물에서는 삼백초의 총 폴리페놀함량이 194.60 mg/g extract, 애엽이 203.93 mg/g extract로 폴리페놀 함량이 높았으며, DPPH 라디칼 소거능(삼백초 66.27%, 애엽 66.22%) 또한 높게 나타났다. 그러나 삼백초와 애엽을 제외한 12종류의 생약식물의 DPPH 라디칼 소거능이 50% 미만인 것으로 조사되었다. 최근에 다양한 자생식물과 약용식물의 폴리페놀, 플라보노이드 함량 및 기능성 탐색에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있지만, 아직까지도 연구되지 않은 무수히 많은 식물 소재들이 많아서 지속적인 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구 결과, 그 동안 대중화 되어있지 않았던 식물 소재들의 기능성 소재로의 가능성이 새롭게 조명 될 수 있을 것으로 사료되며 이와 관련된 의약품, 미용제품 및 건강보조식품 등의 개발에 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 향후 본 연구에서 조사한 자생식물과 생약식물 중 총 폴리페놀함량과 플라보노이드 함량이 높고, DPPH 라디칼 소거능이 뛰어나게 나타난 몇몇 식물에 대한 심도 있는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
