Immune-potentiation of Chicorium endivia L. were investigated on follows extracts associated with ultrasonification process at 60 kHz and showed the highest promotion of human B and T cell growth, about $10{\sim}20%$ compared to the control. The secretion of TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-6 was also enhanced by the addition $(0.5mg/m{\ell})$ of the extracts. NK cell activation was Improved up to 1.37 times higher than the control, through adding extracts. It was also found that extracts from C. endivia L. could yield higher nitric oxide production from macrophage than Lipopolysaccaharides (LPS). It can be concluded that, in general, the extracts treated with ultrasonification has higher immune activity than others, possibly by higher yielding immune-modulatory activity than conventional extraction process. The optimum condition for the extraction of C. endivia L. is ethanol extraction at $60{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ associated with ultrasonification.

Enhancement effect of ultrasonification process on UV-protection and skin-whitening activities using Centella asiatica L. Urban extract was investigated. Cytotoxicity of the extracts measured on human skin fibroblast cells, CCD-986sk, and then, ultrasonification associated extracts showed 5~9% lower cytotoxicity then normal crude extracts on 1.0 mg/$m{\ell}$ of highest sample concentration. The associated extrats showed highest inhibition activity of hyaluronidase on 1.0 mg/$m{\ell}$ of concentration as 54.2%. Also, the associated extract reduced expression of MMP-1 on UV-irradiated CCD-986sk cells down to 100.2% from 136.1%, and revealed high inhibitory potency on tyrosinase as 74.6% by adding 1.0 mg/$m{\ell}$ of concentration. Ultrasonification associated extract showed strong inhibition effect of melanin production on Clone M-3 cells as 84.2% by adding 1.0 mg/$m{\ell}$ of concentration. From the preliminary observations, we considered that the extracts from C. asiatica could be potent natural materials for skin-whitening and anti-aging agent, and could enhance the activities by ultrasonification process.

본 연구는 병풀의 초음파 추출 시 용매에 따른 면역활성 증진 효과를 탐색하고자 수행되었다, 각 추출공정의 수율 비교에서 초음파 공정을 병행한 $60^{\circ}C$ 에탄올 추출이 일반 $100^{\circ}C$ 물 추출에 비해 15% 높은 수율을 나타냈으며, 에탄올을 용매로 한 추출이 동일한 조건의 물 추출에 비해 모두 높은 수율을 나타냈다. 이는 용매의 극성과 용출되는 병풀 내 성분의 극성에 기인하는 것으로 사료된다. 인간 정상 섬유아세포인 CCD-986sk를 이용한 세포독성 측정을 통해 모든 병풀 추출물이 32% 이하의 세포독성을 나타냈다. 인간 면역 B, T세포의 생육도 측정에서 초음파를 병행한 $60^{\circ}C$ 에탄올 추출물이 무첨가 대조구에 비해 10%의 증진 효과를 나타내었으며, 면역세포의 cytokine 분비량 측정에서도 IL-6, TNF-$\alpha$의 분비를 각각 $4.86\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;pg/cell$과 $5.73\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;pg/cell$로 나타내 증진 효과를 나타냈다. 또한, 초음파 병행 에탄올 시료를 첨가한 면역 T세포의 분비물에 의한 NK 세포 활성에서도 10%의 생육증진효과를 나타내었다. 이를 통해 병풀의 에탄올 추출물이 면역 활성을 가지고 있으며 초음파 공정을 통해 활성의 증진이 나타날 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 에탄올 용매를 통해 병풀 유용성분의 용출이 증진되고, 초음파 공정을 통해 병풀 유용 성분의 수율 향상 및 유용성분의 변화, 신규물질 용출 등이 일어나기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 한국산 생약재인 마황과 복분자를 이용하여 추출과정 중 4$0^{\circ}C$, 6$0^{\circ}C$, 10$0^{\circ}C$로 온도를 달리 하여 기존의 열수 추출방법과 초음파를 병행한 추출을 통하여 면역활성 증진에 다르게 나타나는 효과를 비교 실험하였다. 추출시 모든 열수 추출물들에 비해 초음파 병행 추출물의 추출 수율이 높게 나타났고, 마황 4$0^{\circ}C$ 초음파 병행 추출물이 물 추출물에 비해 2.34배로 가장 높은 추출 수율이 나타냈으며, 10$0^{\circ}C$ 복분자 추출물은 물 추출물에 비해 초음파 병행 추출물이 1.27배 증가한 것으로 나타나 10$0^{\circ}C$ 복분자 추출물을 제외한 모든 추출물들에서 초음파 병행 추출물이 물 추출물에 비하여 1.6배 이상 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 추출시 추출되지 않았던 여러 활성 물질이 초음파 처리에 의해 액체간의 상호 탈기 작용에 의해 추출 수율의 상승 효과를 가져온 것으로 사료된다. 또한, 면역세포의 생육활성 측정결과 모든 조건에서 초음파 병행 추출물이 열수 추출만을 가한 추출물에 비해 생육도가 20∼25% 가량 더 높게 관찰되었다. 더불어 인간 면역세포인 B, T cell을 이용한 cytokine 분비량 측정실험에서도 마찬가지로, 열수 추출물에 비해 초음파를 병행한 추출물에서 그 분비량이 1.5배 정도 더 높게 나타났다. 그 중에서도 복분자 6$0^{\circ}C$, 40 KHz 초음파 병행 추출물이 가장 높은 cytokine 분비량 증가 효과를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과를 비추어 보면, 앞으로 더 많은 실험을 통하여 초음파의 병행 효과와 이를 통한 기능성 소재 및 기능성 식품으로의 고부가가치 창출을 위해 더 많은 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각되어진다.

The low quality fresh ginseng was fermented by Phelinus linteus or Hericium erinaceum mycelium. This fermented ginseng was extracted by water at $100^{\circ}C$ or water with ultrasonification at $60^{\circ}C$. Total phenolic compounds was improved by ultrasonification extraction process, compare to conventional water extraction. All extracts enhanced the growth of human B and T cells, showing 2.68 times and 3.43 times higher, respectively, than the control. The secretion of TNF-$\alpha$ and IL-6 from human immune cells was enhanced as $3.53{\times}10^{-4}\;pg/cell$, $3.40{\times}10^{-4}\;pg/cell$ by adding H. erinaceum mycelium fermented ginseng. H. erinaceum mycelium fermented ginseng yielded higher nitric oxide production from macrophage than Lipopolysaccharides (LPS). The cytotoxicity on human normal kidney cell (HEK293) was as low as 20.5% in adding the maximum concentration of $1.0\;mg/m{\ell}$ of fermented ginseng. Generally, the extracts from ultrasonification extraction process showed 10% lower toxicity than that by conventional process. H. erinaceum mycelium fermented ginseng had the highest anticancer activity on human lung cancer and stomach cancer cells as 69.33% and 75.32%, respectively at $1.0\;mg/m{\ell}$. It can be concluded that, in general, H. erinaceum mycelium fermented ginseng has relatively better immune and anticancer activities than P. linteus fermented ginseng. Expecially, the extracts treated with ultrasonification had higher activities than that from conventional extraction process.

This study was performed to investigate the enhancement of cosmeceutical activities of Berberis koreana bark by different extraction processes. The extracts are WE (water extract at $100^{\circ}C$, control), USE (ultrasonification for 1 hours at $60^{\circ}C$ with water), HPE (high pressure for 5 minutes at $60^{\circ}C$ with water) and USE + HPE (ultrasonification process for 1 hours after high pressure for 5 minutes at $60^{\circ}C$ with water), respectively. The cytotoxicity of the extracts was in the range of 24.02~26.94% at 1.0 mg/ml concentration. The USE + HPE showed the lowest cytotoxicity. Compared to the WE, total phenolic and flavonoid contents in the USE + HPE increased to 121.5% and 154.2%. The USE + HPE showed the highest activity at 1.0 mg/ml concentration in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, inhibition activity of xanthine oxidase and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like test, respectively. Tyrosinase inhibition of WE, USE, HPE and USE + HPE at 1.0 mg/ml concentration was measured as 17.72, 19.62, 22.83 and 24.16%, respectively. Hyaluronidase inhibition activities of the USE + HPE were higher than 20.8%~29.5% of the WE. Our results suggested that the extracts from ultrasonification process after high pressure extraction has relatively high cosmeceutical activities, and that the bark of Berberis koreana could be considered as a candidate of new functional cosmetic agents.

Background: This study represents the first report that the anti-obesity activity of ethanol extracts of Aronia melanocarpa can be enhanced through ultrasonification at a frequency of 120 kHz at $60^{\circ}C$ (UE). Methods and Results: The amounts of cyanidin-3-O-galactose (cya-gal), a major anthocyanin in A. melanocarpa were higher by up to 402.4 mg/100 g, as compared with 221.4 mg/100 g and 322.1 mg/100 g, for hot water at $100^{\circ}C$ and 70% ethanol at $80^{\circ}C$ respectively. This result should cause the higher antioxidant activities of the UE than extract of hot water and ethanol in DPPH free radical scavenging. It was confirmed that the high antioxidant activity of UE could play an important role in inhibiting the production of proteins related to adipocyte differentiation, such as peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-${\gamma}$ (PPAR-${\gamma}$) and sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1). Conclusions: Ultrasonification at a frequency of 120 kHz at $60^{\circ}C$ should result in better anti-obesity activity than that observed using other processes. It was also observed for the first time that the anti-obesity activity of A. melanocarpa was associated with its antioxidant activity, possibly due to the higher elution of intact cya-gal, owing to efficient low temperature ultrasonification extraction. These results could also be applied to improve other biological activities of medicinal herbs that contain many types of heat-labile bioactive substances.

본 연구에서는 아가위나무 열매를 초음파 공정과 기존의 추출 공정을 비교하여 항산화 증진효과에 대해 연구하였다. 초음파 공정이 기존의 추출공정과 비교해 추출수율이 높게 나타났으며 이는 많은 유용활성 성분이 용출된 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 총 페놀 함량에서는 상온교반추출물보다 초음파 공정을 거친 추출물이 약 2배 정도의 함량 증가를 보였으며, 총 플라보노이드에서도 함량의 증가를 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 초음파 고정을 이용해 활성물질들의 파괴없이 초음파의 높은 에너지로 인하여 더 많은 활성물질들을 추출하여 효능의 증대가 이루어질 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 실제적인 천연물 추출공정에서도 유용성분의 초음파추출은 많은 실험을 통하여 확인해야 할 것이며, frequency(kHz)와 intensity(Watt)의 조절, 시간(min)과 온도($^{\circ}C$) 그리고 시료의 형태에 따라 추출효율 및 유용성분의 영향은 다양한 변수에 의하여 편차가 클 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 본 연구에서 수행된 아가위나무 열매의 추출가공 연구는 식품 및 소재 개발 시 기초자료로 이용될 수 있으며 기능성 소재 연구에 충분한 가치가 있다고 판단된다.
