This study was carried out to examine antimicrobial substances from medicinal plants, the ethanol extracts of 38 medicinal plants were tested for the antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 43300. The extracts of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Sophora flavescens, Dryopteris crassirhizoma, and Pinas densiflora showed significant antimicrobial activities against both S. aureus ATCC 25923 and methicillin-resistant S. aureus ATCC 43300. The extract of Dryopteris crassirhizoma among these medical plants showed the highest antimicrobial activity. These results suggested that the extracts from Dryopteris crassirhizoma, Sophora flavescens, Pinas densiflora, and Glycyrrhiza uralensis could be the potential source of antimicrobial agents against methicillin-resistant S. aureus and S. aureus.

1. Objectives Although the incidence of allergic rhinitis is increasing continually, Sasang Constitutional Medicine is showing favorable treatment outcomes. This study was aimed to test the antimicrobial effects of Bojungikgi-tang, Gwakhyangjeonggi-san, and Gunggwihyangso-san which are being applied to allergic rhinitis of Soeumin. 2. Methods Klebsiella pneumoniae 289 was extracted from allergic rhinitis patients. Bojungikgi-tang, Gwakhyangjeonggi-san, and Gunggwihyangso-san were boiled down and concentrated, and the substances obtained were tested for the effects on stability to temperature and pH and on antimicrobial activity 3. Results When measured the level of antimicrobial activity, the inhibition zones of Bojungikgi-tang, Gwakhyangjeonggi-san, and Gunggwihyangso-san were found 11.42, 11.07, and 10.63mm, respectively. The levels of MIC were $15{\mu}{\ell}$, $20{\mu}{\ell}$, and $10{\mu}{\ell}$ in that order. The antimicrobial activities were increased 13.88% in Bojungikgi-tang, 16.63% in Gwakhyangjeonggi-san, and 10.72% in Gunggwihyangso-san. There was no influence of pH to antimicrobial activity of all three substances. 4. Conclusions Bojungikgi-tang, Gwakhyangjeonggi-san, and Gunggwihyangso-san had a high level of antimicrobial activity to Klebsiella pneumoniae 289 even at a low concentration.

이 연구는 분리된 토양 세균에 의해 생성된 항균물질의 효과를 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 2000여개의 세균 분리주 중 Paenibacillus elgii DS381이 여러 인간 피부 상재균과 병원성 세균에 대해 높은 항균활성을 나타내었다. DS381 균주는 agar well diffusion test에서 모든 대상 세균과 효모에 대해 15.3~26.0 mm 직경의 저해대를 형성하였다. DS381이 생성한 항균 펩티드는 모든 대상 미생물에 낮은 최소저해농도 (0.039-5.000 mg/ml)를 나타내었다. DS381 균주는 lipopeptide 같은 생물계면활성제 생산을 나타내었는데, 배양 상등액의 표면장력을 60.0에서 40.3 mN/m으로 낮추었다. DS381은 또한 $1.56{\pm}0.13U/ml$의 chitinase 활성도 나타내었다. 이 결과들은 P. elgii DS381이 일부 중요한 인간 피부 상재균과 병원성 세균에 대한 효율적인 생물제어제로 사용될 수 있음을 가리킨다.

There were many reports on the natural antioxidants, but only tocopherol has been widely used despite of its high market price because of its recognized safety. On the other hands, antimicrobial effects of various plant extracts also have been extensively studied. There exist many substances showing antimicrobial activity in plants and their activities have been studied.

As part of our search for less toxic antimicrobial substances from natural resources, naringin was isolated from feels of Citri fructus and then hydrolyzed to naringenin. The antimicrobial activity of naringenin was examined by measuring the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) against fourteen species of bacteria. The antimicrobial activity of narngenin in combination with rutin or hesperetin was evaluated by checkerboard method. Among fourteen species tested, the antimicrobial activity of naringenin was the most prominant against Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella boydii showing MIC of $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ for both species. Combinations of naringenin with rutin or hesperetin showed synergism against several species of bacteria, but no antagonism was observed.

무화과잎의 메탄올추출물을 용매분획하여 얻은 분획중 산성 분획과 페놀성 분획이 항미생물 활성이 강한 것으로 나타났고 페놀성 분획이 산성 분획보다 항미생물 활성이 더 강하여 페놀성 분획중의 항미생물 활성물질을 동정하기 위하여 먼저 silica gel column chromatography, RP-8 column chromatography 및 preparative liquid chromatography를 행하여 정제하였고 정제된 항미생물 활성물질을 IR, $^{1}H-NMR$ 및 MS에 의한 기기분석을 통하여 동정한 결과 각각 psoralen, bergapten, umbelliferone 및 ${\beta}$-sitosterol로 구명되었다.

Bacterial endospores, especially those of Bacillus and Clostridium genera, are the target of sterilization in various foods. We used Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 spores to screen novel antimicrobial substances against spores from medicinal plants. We collected 79 types of plant samples, comprising 42 types of herbs and spices and 37 types of medicinal plants used in traditional medicine in Korea and China. At a concentration of 1%(w/v), only 14 of the ethanol extracts exhibited antimicrobial activity against B. subtilis spores of at least 90%. Crude extracts of Torilis japonica, Gardenia jasminoides, Plantago asiatica, Fritllaria, and Arctium lappa showed particularly high sporicidal activities, reducing the spore count by about 99%. Consideration of several factors, including antimicrobial activity, extraction yields, and costs of raw materials, resulted in the selection of T. japonica, G. jasminoides, A. lappa, and Coriandrum sativum for the final screening of novel antimicrobial substances. Verification tests repeated 10 times over a 4-month period showed that the ethanol extract of T. japonica fruit reduced aerobic plate counts of B. subtilis spores the most, from $10^7$ to $10^4\;CFU/mL$ (99.9%) and with a standard deviation of 0.21%, indicating that this fruit is the most suitable for developing a novel antimicrobial substance for inactivating B. subtilis spores.

천연식품보존료의 개발을 목적으로 marta rosemary의 항균활성을 조건을 달리하여 조사하였다. 균주에 따른 에탄올 추출 marta rosemary의 항균성은 S. typhimurium과 B. subtilis에 대하여 높았다. 용매별 항균성은 극성이 작은 butanol과 hexane 추출액에서 높았고. 수용액에서의 항균 활성은 pH 7에서 가장 높았다. 허브의 미생물의 생육억제 양상은 B. subtilis에 대하여 저 농도에서는 유도기 지연형, 고농도에서는 유도기 지연 및 비증 식속도 억제형이었으며 S. typhimurium은 농도에 관계없이 비 증식속도 억제형으로 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 경향은 낮은 pH 에서도 유사하게 나타났다. 항균물질의 $100^{\circ}C$에서의 열안정성은 가열시간이 길수록 허브의 항균력이 저하되었고 $121^{\circ}C$에서 15분간의 열처리로 인한 허브의 항균력은 B. subtilis보다 S. typhimurium에서 높게 나타났다.
