The essential oil (EC-oil) obtained from the buds of Eugenia caryophyllata (Myrtaceae) was examined for its free radical-scavenging activity, cytotoxicity, and in vivo toxicity. To find the xenobiotic properties of EC-oil, serum thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) level and hepatic drug-metabolizing enzyme activities were measured. It was found that EC-oil displayed xenobiotic properties like bromobenzene. The cytotoxicities of eugenol and of the EC-oil were greatly attenuated by the sulfhydryl-containing N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), suggesting that eugenol was susceptible to nucleophilic sulfhydryl. In addition, eugenol also showed potent free radical-scavenging activity in the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. Moreover, methyleugenol considerably exhibited less cytotoxicity and less potent free radical-scavenging activity than eugenol, and the cell viability of the methyleugenol was more increased with NAC treatment than the eugenol. These results indicate that the phenolic OH in eugenol may play a crucial role in both cytotoxicity and free radical-scavenging activity. The fashion on oxidative stress and hepatic drug-metabolizing enzyme activities of eugenol resembled those of bromobenznene.

Seven antioxidative compounds were isolated from chloroform and ethyl acetate extracts of the stem bark of Eucalyptus globulus (Myrtaceae). They were identified as rhamnazin (1), rhamnetin (2), naringenin (3), eriodictyol (4), quercetin (5), taxifolin (6) and dihydrokaempferol-3-rhamnoside (7) on the basis of various spectroscopic analyses. These compounds inhibited lipid peroxidation with $IC_{50}$ values of 0.08-30 ${\mu}g/ml$.

The inhibitory effects of the leaves of Eucalyptus darylmpleana (Myrtaceae) on the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical was examined. The scavenging effect of the ethyl acetate fraction of Eucalyptus darylmpleana leaves on DPPH radical was stronger than the other fractions, and further purified by silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. 3,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid, quercetin, quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-_L-rhamnoside$, quercetin $3-O-{\beta}-_D-glucoside$ and quercetin 3-O-rutinoside were isolated and elucidated by spectroscopic data. Among these components, gallic acid and quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-_L-rhamnoside$ exhibited potent scavenging activities on DPPH radical with $IC_{50}$ values of 6.02 and $5.54\;{\mu}M$, respectively.

Twelve compounds with lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity were isolated from the stem bark of E. globulus. Their structures were assigned as a new aromatic monoterpene (1) and eleven known compounds, pinoresinol (2), vomifoliol (3), 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenol 1-O-$\beta$-D-(6'-O-galloyl)glucopyranoside (4), methyl gallate (5), rhamnazin (6), rhamnetin (7), eriodictyol (8), quercetin (9), taxifolin (10), engelitin (11), and catechin (12) on the basis of UV, mass, and NMR spectroscopic analyses. These compounds except vomifoliol significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsome.

The Illam district, situated in the extreme North Eastern part (Latitude 26.58N and 87.58E Longitude) of Nepal, is a hot spot for floral diversity. The study of wild edible plants of this region was an attempt to highlight the types of wild flowering plants found there and mode of use by the people of the Illam hills. In this respect, a survey of natural resources of some of the representative regions of the district was undertaken and more than 74 major varieties of plant species were found to be used frequently by the people of the hills. The rich diversity occurring in Dioscoriaceae, Moraceae, Rosaceae, Myrtaceae, Poaceae, Urticaceae and Arecaceae provided the wild angiospermic species commonly used by the people of the hills.

캄보디아 캄폿주 프놈보콜국립공원에 대한 식물상 조사 중 열대성 전기생식물인 B. fungosa var. indica를 발견하였다. 이들의 숙주를 확인하기 위해 숙주의 뿌리와 더불어 주변에 위치한 목본 식물을 채집하였으며, 이들을 DNA barcoding 방법을 사용하여 동정하였다. DNA barcode 마커로는 엽록체 rbcL 및 matK 유전자 구간을 적용하였으며, 15개의 숙주 뿌리와 7개의 주변 목본식물로부터 성공적으로 PCR 증폭 및 염기서열을 확보하였다. 숙주 뿌리로부터 얻어진 숙주의 염기서열은 앵초과, 노박덩굴과, 도금양과, 그리고 물푸레나무과로 식별되었으며, 주변의 목본식물은 물푸레나무과, 도금양과, 무환자나무과, 장미과, 물레나물과, 철쭉과와 녹나무과였다. 속 수준에서 앵초과는 Myrsine, 노박덩굴과는 Euonymus, 도금양과는 Syzygium, 물푸레나무과는 Olea 등으로 각각 식별되었으나, 종 수준에서의 동정은 불가능하였다. 앵초과 Myrsine와 물푸레나무과 Olea는 본 연구를 통해 최초로 B. fungosa var. indica의 숙주로 확인되었다. 추가적인 채집 조사 및 비교 연구, DNA barcoding을 통해 해당 지역의 생물다양성과 Balanophora속 식물의 숙주 식물 및 진화에 대해 좀더 명확하게 확인이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

기저상태의 산소분자는 비교적 안정하지만 생체ㅇ내외에서 물리적, 화학적으로 활성화 되어 $O_{2}$, $^{1}O_{2}$, OH, $H_{2}O_{2}$ 등의 활성산소종을 생성하며, 생체의 지질, 단백질, 핵산 당등의 분자에 산화적 상해를 초래하여 노화, 암, 순환기, 호흡기 게통의 질환과 식품의 품질열화에 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본인은 식품의 맛, 향기, 색 등을 부여하는 고유의 기능 외에도 방부제, 한방약으로 널리 이용되고 오고 있는 51종의 향신료를 대상으로 활성산소포촉활성을 조사하고 나아가 활성물질을 분리, 정제 및 동정함으로 향신료의 새로운 기능을 밝히고 신약 개발의 기초적 자료를 제시하고저 한다. Fenton 반응을 이용하여 2-deozyribose 산화법과 sodium benzoic acid 수산화법으로 51종의 향신료의 OH 포촉활성을 검색한 결과, Cruciferae과의 nustard 류, Labiatae과의 thyme, saga, savory, oregano, Myrtaceae과의 clove, allspice 가 1ug/ml 농도에서 50%이상의 포촉활성을 나타내었으며 그중 mustard 류는 같은 농도에서 거의 90%이상의 활성을 나타내었다. 활성물질의 분리 및 정제는 Amberlite XAD-2 갈럼과 preparative-HPLC를 이용 하였으며, EI, FAB-MS, IR, $^{1}H$, $^{13}C-NMR$, Cosy-NMR로 그 화학적 구조를 동정하였다. Brown mustard에서 동정된 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy cinnamic acid Methyl ester는 0.42$\mu$ mol 농도에서 90% 이상의 OH 포촉활성을 나타내어 이를 diazomethane 반응으로 조제하였으며 white mistard에서는 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy cinnamoyl choline을 동정하였다.
