In this study, liquid with carbonized artemisia was developed for the first time that can be used as food additives and outside medicinal agents by burning artemisia species such as Artemisia dubia wall, Artemisia capillaris Thunb, Artemisia montana (Nakai) Pamp), Artemisia keiskeana Miq, Leonurus Japonicus Houtt. etc. In addition, edibility of recovered liquid with carbonized artemisia was verified by comparing the contents according to each ingredient with common refined pyroligneous liquid through the analysis of 9 kinds of organic acid by the species of artemisia, methanol and ethanol. Besides, the result of antimicrobial activities on six kinds of food spoilage and food poisoning bacteria observed by paper disc method for liquid with carbonized artemisia indicated that those two liquids showed strong antimicrobial. At the concentration of 1.5 mg/disc, clear zone for S. sonnei and S. aureus, L. monocytogenes was 13~16 mm, and they showed stronger antimicrobial activities than other strain.
