The acetone precipitates of the hot water extract of Torilis ftuctus showed strong hemostatic activity which was not inhibited by aspirin. This activity was not through platelet activation but possibly through activating some coagulation factors in plasma. The hemostatic action of the precipitates was not active by oral adminitration and no behavioral toxicity was appeared in treated mice. However, mice treated with the acetone precipitates through tail vein showed serious tremor and then were killed probably by the thrombus produced in the body. The hemostatic activity was still remained after treatment with $\beta$-glucosidase, $\beta$-alactosidase, $\alpha$-amylase, subtilisin BPN', or trypsin but completely lost by acid hydrolysis. The active components seemed to be a complex of unidentified macromolecules to which some phenolic compounds were strongly bound.

Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and the derived myofibroblasts are known to play a central role in liver fibrogenesis. Rhus verniciflua Strokes (RVS) has traditionally been used in Korea herbal medicine for a stomachic tonic. In this study, we observed the effect of RVS acetone extract (Ra) and its five major components on the proliferation, the collagen synthesis, and hepatic fibrosis related proteins mRNA levels in HSC-T6 cells which is a fully activated rat hepatic stellate cell line. Ra inhibited the proliferation and decreased the content of collagen in the HSC-T6 cells. (omitted)

The result of the study about the cultivation, the constituents, the sweetenity, and the development of preparations of Stevia and Hydrangea are as follows: 1. Hydrangea thrived at $200{\sim}1,400m$ above the sea-level, and the good ones were brought up at $600{\sim}1,200m$. 2. The good ones which belonged to the genera of Hydrangea were produced in the damp, dark and cold place. 3. The growth and cultivated yield of Stevia was not significantly influenced by the acidity of the soil. 4. The best season was May and June for propagation of Stevia by cutting method. 5. The growth rate of Stevia and Hydrangea was really good in the sandy fertile soil, but in the mucotic soil it was not suitable. 6. The extraction and separation of phyllodulcin by solvent had many difficulties, because it was very soluble in water, ethanol, ether, petroleum ether, acetone and benzene, etc. 7. The solubility of stevioside on the solvent was as follows: It was very soluble in water and methanol, slightly soluble in ethanol and acetone, and insoluble in ether, petroleum ether and chloroform. 8. The alkaloid reaction by Mayer reagent in Hydrangea extract was positive. 9. The ashification rate of Stevia was 8.66% to 8.72% and that of Hydrangea 17.02% to 17.04%. 10. The tannin of Stevia leaf was 7.80% to 7.88% and its of Hydrangea decreased 9.46% to 6.08% by fermentation. 11. The percent rates in minimum concentration-occurring sweetness in sugar, glycyrrhiza methanol extract, Hydrangea water extract, Stevia leaf water extract, decoction of Stevia's leaf, decoction of Stevia's stem were as follows: 1.2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.01, 0.1, 0.6. and sweetenity ratios of those were 1, 12, 12, 6, 3, 64, 12, 2, 12. It was very meaningful to develop preparations of stevia as stevioside, micronized powder, water extract, methanol extract and compound teas and in Hydrangea, water extract, methanol extract, single tea, and compound teas were less meaningful. 13. The genera of Hydrangea which is natural species in Korea was positive in phyllodulcin-identification test, but it was not available to make the sweet tea because of having a little content.

오미자 추출물에 감마선을 조사하여 tyrosinase 저해, xanthine oxidase 저해 및 아질산염 소거능에 대하여 검토하였다. 오미자 추출물은 열수, ethanol, methanol 그리고 acetone등을 이용하여 추출하였으며, 감마선은 10, 20과 30 kGy로 조사하였다. 오미자 추출물은 모두 tyrosinase 저해 효과를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 감마선 조사 후 오미자 추출물에 대한 tyrosinase는 열수 추출물보다 용매 추출물이 저해 효과가 높게 나타내었다. Xanthine oxidase 저해 효과실험 결과, 오미자 추출물은 열수 및 용매 추출물 모두 저해력을 나타내었으며, 감마선 조사는 xanthine oxidase 저해력에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 아질산염 소거능은 pH 1.2, 3.0 그리고 6.0으로 측정하였다. 오미자 추출물은 pH 1.2와 3.0 에서 높은 소거력을 나타내었고, 열수 추출물은 methanol, ethanol 그리고 acetone 추출물보다 아질산염 소거능이 훨씬 높게 나타내었다. 감마선을 30 kGy까지 조사하였을 때, 오미자 추출물의 생리 활성에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다.

본 연구에서는 신경독소일 뿐만 아니라 흥분성 신경전달물질로 잘 알려져 있는 glutamate 세포독성이 산화적 손상과 관련하고 있고, 여기에 방어효과를 보이는 제비꽃 추출물에 관하여 연구하였다. MTT reduction assay를 통하여 glutamate의 세포독성을 확인하였고 ascorbic acid와 같은 대표적인 항산화제를 처리한 후 광학 현미경을 이용한 형태학적 변화를 관찰하였다. N18-RE-105 세포주에 최종 농도 20mM의 glutamate를 처리 하면 40.8% 의 생존율을 보이는데 반하여 ascorbic acid 500 ${\mu}M$ 최종농도로 처리하였을 때 85.3%의 세포 생존율을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 신경세포 보호효과를 가지는 제비꽃을 methanol, ethanol, acetone 추출한 뒤 MTT reduction assay를 이용하여 활성을 확인하였으며 그 중 acetone 추출물을 최종농도 50, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$를 처리 시 76.8%, 79.4%로 가장 높은 세포 생존율을 확인할 수 있었다. 이 결과는 N18-RE-105 세포주의 형태학적 변화와 LDH release assey에서도 일치하는 결과를 확인하였다.

메탄올, 에탄올, 아세톤 그리고 물을 이용하여 신선한 오만둥이의 추출물을 제조한 후, 추출물의 항산화능 및 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 유도능을 조사하였다. 아세톤 추출물을 제외한 대부분의 추출물은 malonedialdehyde 생성을 50% 이상 저해하는 항산화능을 보였으며, 메탄올 추출물은 가장 높은 값인 59.3%의 malonedialdehyde 생성 저해능을 나타내었다. 물과 아세톤 추출물은 각각 18.5와 $12.3\;{\mu}M$의 glutathione 함량을 보였지만 그 외의 추출물에서는 검출되지 않았다. 추출물들의 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 유도능을 RAW 264.7 세포주로 조사하였다. 오만둥이 물 추출물은 첨가량이 증가할수록 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 생성을 증가시켰다. 그러나 그 이외의 추출물들은 RAW 264.7 세포주에서의 증가할수록 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 생성을 유도하지 못하였다.

자소자의 탈지시료로부터 FPA, SPA 및 IPA 형태의 phenol성 물질을 추출하여 이중 항산화활성이 가장 강한 FPA 추출물에 존재하는 항산화성분을 column chromatography 및 HPLC에 의하여 분리하였다. Chlorogenic acid를 표준물질로하여 측정한 탈지된 자소자에 함유되어 있는 phenol성 물질의 총함량은 0.38% 였고, 총 phenol성 물질중 FPA, SPA 및 IPA 추출물이 차지하는 비율은 71.1%, 15.8% 및 13.1%였다. 세가지 형태의 phenol성 물질의 항산화활성을 electron donating ability (EDA)와 linoleic acid를 기질로 하여 TBA값을 측정하여 비교하였을 경우 FPA 추출물이 가장 높은 항산화활성을 나타내었다. 항산화활성이 가장 높게 나타난 FPA 추출물을 silica gel column chromatography로 분획하여 항산화활성을 비교한 결과 acetone : methanol의 비가 8 : 2인 획분에서 가장 높은 항산화활성을 나타내었다. 항산화활성이 가장 높았던 획분을 HPLC에 의하여 분리한 결과 HPLC chromatogram 상에서 5가지 활성물질 획분이 분리되었으며, 이들 획분을 분취하여 항산화활성을 비교한 결과 F-I 획분이 가장 높은 항산화활성을 나타내었다.

The desire to be light skinned is universal among women. Asia has a long history of using skincare formulations as whitening agents. There is an imperative need to develop novel cosmetics from herbal sources due to several unpleasant side effects and high costs. As a result, this study aims to investigate the effect of Ceylon black tea extracts on melanogenesis. Five different Ceylon black tea extracts were prepared and examined for total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), DPPH radical scavenging activity, and tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Furthermore, B16F10 melanoma cells were treated with these extracts and tested for cytotoxicity and protein suppression levels. According to the results of this study, the highest TPCs were obtained from ethanol and acetone extractions (240.303 ± 1.389 ㎍/g and 240.202 ± 4.700 ㎍/g, respectively), whereas the highest TFC was obtained from acetone extraction (57.484 ± 0.413 ㎍/g). Ceylon black tea extracted with ethanol exhibited the highest inhibitory activity on tyrosinase with an IC₅₀ value of 0.277 ± 0.017 mg/mL and the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity with an EC₅₀ value of 0.009 ± 0.000 mg/mL. Furthermore, western blot results revealed that tyrosinase, TRP-1, TRP-2, and MITF protein expression levels were dose-dependently suppressed, indicating the applicability of Ceylon black tea extract as a novel melanogenesis inhibitor.

The aim of this work was to prepare a new biodegradable polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) submicron fiber mat loaded with hypericin-rich Hypericum perforatum raw extract by centrifugal spinning technology, an alternative approach to the traditional method of electrospinning to fabricate nanofibers or microfibers from solutions at high speed and low cost. Hypericins in methanol/acetone extract of H. perforatum were determined by UHPLC-MS/MS and HPLC/PDA. Submicron fiber mats composed of pure PHB or PHB enriched with H. perforatum extract were prepared using a pilot plant demonstrator for the centrifugal spinning technology and characterized by SEM. Singlet oxygen production was quantified by the 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPIBF) method in hexane. The results proved a significant production of singlet oxygen by the prepared submicron fiber mat. We also found a significant antibacterial activity against the bacterial strain Escherichia coli CCM 5417 by a method in accordance with JIS Z 2801/ISO 22196 standards. The H. perforatum extract-enriched PHB submicron fiber mats showed potential for the development of self-cleaning and antimicrobial air filters.
