In order to explore the anti-oxidization effect of oriental medicine and cereal medium(OCM) where Tricholoma matsutake mycelia were cultured, measurement of hot water extract and UMPM(extraction method using ultra sonic waves, micro waves, micro bubble) extract, the total polyphenol content of crude polysaccharide from each extract, SOD-like activity, electron donating ability(EDA), xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity, and tyrosinase inhibitory activity was conducted. The total polyphenol content of each extract was found to be 16.36% for hot water extract(HE) group and 15.73% for UMPM extract(UE) group and the amount of crude polysaccharide precipitated into ethanol of extracts was found to be 8.79% for UMPM ethanol extract(UEE) group and 6.48% for hot water ethanol extract(HEE) group. As a result of measurement of SOD-like activity by concentration of each extract, it was found to be 96.17% for UE group, 91.23% for HE group, 91.33% for UEE group, and 87.11% for HEE group at 20 mg/mL. In the case of EDA, it was found to be 47.55% for UE group, 44.93% for HE group, 25.38% for UEE group, and 18.36% for HEE group. And in the cases of the rates of xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity and tyrosinase inhibitory activity, as the concentration of each extract increased, the inhibition rate increased accordingly. As a result of comparison between hot water extract method and UMPM extract method using extracts obtained from oriental medicine compound medium where Tricholoma matsutake mycelia were cultured, all of the extracts were judged to have a high anti-oxidization effect. In particular, UMPM extracts were found to have higher polyphenol content, SOD-like activity, EDA, xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity and tyrosinase inhibitory activity compared to hot water extract method. In this regard, extracts obtained from OCM where Tricholoma matsutake mycelia were cultured are considered to have high availability as functional material when and if they are prepared using UMPM extract method.

뜰보리수 열매의 식품영양학적 평가의 일환으로 추출용매별, 추출농도별에 따른 전자공여능, linolenic acid system을 이용한 항산화활성, SOD유사활성, superoxide anion radical 소거능, 아질산염 소거능 등을 측정하였다. 전자공여능은 물 추출물에서는 낮은 농도에서 비교적 높은 활성을 나타내었고, 에탄올과 메탄올 추출물의 농도가 증가할수록 항산화 활성이 증가하였으며, 메탄올 추출물에서 가장 높은 항산화 효과를 보였다. Linoleic acid system에 의한 항산화 활성은 추출물의 농도가 증가할수록 항산화 효과 또한 높아졌고, 물 추출물 보다는 에탄올 추출물과 메탄올 추출물에서 효과가 더 좋았다. SOD 유사활성은 추출물의 농도가 높을수록 SOD 활성도 높게 나타났으며, 메탄올 추출물에서 추출물 농도 2.0 mg/mL에서 가장 높은 활성을 타나내었다. Superoxide anion radical에 대한 저해정도는 물 추출물의 경우 추출물의 첨가농도가 낮을 때 높은 저해효과를 나타내었고, 에탄올과 메탄올 추출물에서는 추출물 첨가농도가 증가할수록 저해효과가 높았다. 각 추출물과 pH의 변화에 따른 아질산염 소거작용에 대한 결과는 pH가 낮을수록 농도가 증가할수록 소거효과는 높게 나타났고, 물 추출물의 pH 1.2에서 77.35%로 아질산염 소거능이 가장 높은 효과를 나타내었다. 에탄올, 메탄올 추출물도 물 추출물에서와 같이 pH가 낮을수록 추출물의 첨가농도가 증가할수록 아질산염 소거작용이 높았다.

1. Objectives This study aimed to investigate the anti-oxidative effect of Nocyongdaebo-tang (NYD) decoction in oxidized rats induced by AAPH. 2. Methods AAPH (2.2-azobis-2 aminodinopropane-hydrochloride) was injected intraperitoneally to induce oxidization and NYD was orally administered to the rats. To observe the anti-oxidative effect of NYD, we performed blood chemistry analysis, histological analysis, and evaluated the levels of SOD, catalase, glutathione, NO and MDA in liver. 3. Results & Conclusions 1) Serum Albumin level was increased significantly in the NYD group as compared with the control group and the saline group. 2) Serum LDL-cholesterol level was reduced significantly in the NYD group as compared with the control group. 3) GPT level in liver was reduced significantly in the NYD group as compared with the control group. 4) SOD, catalase activity and glutathione levels were increased significantly in the NYD group as compared with the control group and the saline group. 5) The levels of NO and MDA were reduced significantly in the NYD group as compared with the control group. 6) The degenerative change of liver tissue of NYD group was decreased in comparison with the control group. In conclusion, NYD decoction is considered to have an anti-oxidative effect in rats.

Objectives : Thymol (2-isopropyl-5-methylphenol), a natural monoterpenoid phenol, is one of the major odorant constituents found in natural essential oils of various herbal plants, such as Thymus quinquecostatus and Thymus vulgaris. Multiple biological activities of thymol, including antioxidative, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects, have been reported in numerous in vitro studies, and recently it was suggested that thymol may could inhibit oxidization of L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) to dopaquinone required in melanogenesis pathway, as an antioxidant. Methods : MTT assay was performed to test the cytotoxic effect of thymol in B16F10 cells. Inhibitory effect of thymol to tyrosinase activities were examined using both mushroom tyrosinase and intracellular tyrosinase. Expression level of tyrosinase in B16F10 cells were investigated by western blot analysis. Results : The cell viability was decreased by thymol treatment in dose-dependant manner, leading significant cytotoxicity in 500 and $1000{\mu}M$ thymol-treated groups. In the alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (${\alpha}$-MSH)-induced melanogenesis, administration of thymol significantly decreased extracellular (secreted) melanin content in dose-dependent manner. Cellular tyrosinase activity assay and western blot analysis of intracellular tyrosinase showed that thymol has a strong anti-melanogenic effect by inhibition of tyrosinase activity and by decreasing expression of tyrosinase that contribute to melanin synthesis in the B1610 cells. Conclusions : As the first functional study that prove anti-melanogenic effect of thymol and its underlying mechanism in the living cells, our study suggests the applicability of fragrance as the functional materials of cosmetics or health supplement, not as just an additive.

Objectives : The Objective of this study is to compare the anti-oxidative effect of the Hoveniae Semen cum Fructus (HScF) to that of Hoveniae Ramulus (HR) in vivo. Methods : The extracts of HScF and HR were tested in vivo for their anti-oxidative effects. SD Rats were injected with the AAPH (2.2'-azobis (2-aminodinopropane) hydrochloride) to induce the acute oxidization stress, and the oxidized rats were administered with the HScF and HR decoction orally. The RBC, WBC and PLT populations in plasma, and the blood chemistry levels of the rats were measured to observe the overall changes in the blood. The anti-oxidative effects of the HScF and HR decoctions were investigated on the liver tissues of the oxidated rats. Results : 1. Thrombocyte decreased significantly in the group medicated with HScF. 2. Blood glucose increased significantly in the group medicated with HR. 3. SOD activity increased significantly in both the group medicated with HScF and that with HR. 4. NO concentration decreased significantly in both the group medicated with HScF and that with HR. 5. The catalase content increased significantly in both the group medicated with HScF and that with HR. Conclusions : The HScF and HR extracts have an anti-oxidative effect.

Magnesium alloy is limited in the industrial field because its standard electrode potential is -2.363 V vs. NHE (Normal Hydrogen Electrode) at 25 ℃. This high electrochemical activity causes magnesium to quickly corrode with oxygen in air; chemical conversion coating prevents corrosion but causes surface defects like cracks and pores. We have examined the anti-corrosion effect of sol-gel coating sealed on the defected conversion coating layer. Sol-gel coatings produced higher voltage current and smaller pore than the chemical conversion coating layer. The conversion coating on magnesium alloy AZ31 was prepared using phosphate-permanganate solution. The sol-gel coating was designed using trimethoxymethylsilane (MTMS) and (3-Glycidyloxypropyl) trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as precursors, and aluminum acetylacetonate as a ring-opening agent. The thermal shock resistance was tested by exposing specimens at 140 ℃ in a convection oven; the results showed changes in the magnesium alloy AZ31 surface, such as oxidization and cracking. Scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) analysis confirmed a sealed sol-gel coating layer on magnesium alloy AZ31. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measured the differences in corrosion protection properties by sol-gel and conversion coatings in 0.35 wt% NaCl solution, and the potentiodynamic polarization test and confirmed conversion coating with the sol-gel coating show significantly improved resistance by crack sealing.
