익모초(Leonurus sibiricus L)는 한국, 중국, 일본, 아시아 각지에 야생으로 자생하는 2년생 초본으로 꿀풀과(Labiatae) 식물로 높이 1.5${\~}$2m 정도 자란다. 약효로는 부인병의 각종 자궁질환, 활혈, 조경, 이뇨, 소증 효과는 물론 혈변, 혈뇨, 치질, 대${\cdot}$소변 불통 등의 치료제로 사용한다. 그 외에 고혈압, 강심작용, 항암연구도 활발하다. 익모초의 $CHC1_3$ 엑스와 MeOH 엑스를 $H_2O$, $30\%$ MeOH, $60\%$ MeOH, $100\%$ MeOH로 분획하였고, 이 5가지 분획물들에 대하여 activity guided fractionation 방법에 따라 DPPH free radical에 대한 scavenging activity와 LDL의 lipid peroxidation을 이용한 TBARS assay로 항산화 활성실험을 측정하였다. 그 결과 익모초의 MeOH 엑스는 $30\%$ MeOH, $60\%$ MeOH 분획물이 항산화 활성이 증가하였으며, Vitamin C와 비교해 볼 때 강한 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 pyrogaliol을 이용한 SOD 활성에서도 250 ppm에서는 Vitamin C 보다 우수한 유사 활성을 보였다. 이상과 같이 익모초로부터 비교적 강한 항산화 활성을 확인할 수 있어 천연항산화 기능성 화장품의 개발이 가능하리라 보여 진다.

This study investigated intake patterns of health functional foods(HFF) in elementary school children and requirements of their parents in the Daejeon area using a questionnaire by 432 parents. Participating parents were composed of female, 83.6% and male, 16.4%. Most of the parents were in their 40's(53.0%) and 30's(45.8%). 47.9% of the children were male and 52.1% were female. The school year of the children was distributed evenly, ranging from the first year to the sixth year. The intake rate of HFF for parents appeared to be 65.3% and for children it appeared to be 63.2%. The primary reason of using HFF to their child was 'For health promotion'(54.4%); the largest reason of non-using HFF was 'Do not feel necessity because is healthy'(48.8%). In regards to purchase place, 'Drugstore' was most selected by 26.1%, while the largest amount of purchase motive was 'Decided by oneself for children's health'(37.7%). The average expense per month was, 'Less than 50 thousand portion'(20.3%). The intake period, 'less than 6 months' was won' for 54.9%. For intake items, 'Vitamin supplementation products' was the largest portion'(20.3%) was indicated. The intake period, less than 6 months' was the most selected by 51.3%. Most people(66.7%) selected '1 kind' of intake item. As for intake effect, 45.4% claimed 'A little help'. In regard to experiencing side effects, 'Is not' was 92.7%, however, diarrhea, nettle rash, nausea etc. were a little. The biggest problem of HFF was 'Falsehood/exaggerative advertisement' as identified by 53.1%. For improvement of the HFF system was, 'Verify by more strict formality' as selected by 55.8%. In regards to experience of nutrition education on HFF, 'Is not' was most selected by 51.0%. The most desirous form of nutrition education was, 'Simple paper material'(31.3%). The most desirous content of nutrition education was, 'nutritional management of classified by life cycle'(37.2%). Therefore, HFF must be used properly to promote the health and growth development of children by acquiring scientific and reasonable information about the ability and usage of the food.
