Abstract

This study was carried out to examine the antioxidative, antimicrobial and nitrite scavenging effects of various solvent extracts and different solvent fractions from Schizandra chinensis RUPRECHT(Omija) seed. The results were as follows; The antioxidative activities using lard, soybean oil and linoleic acid were the highest in methanol, ethanol and methanol extract from omija seed, respectively. The free radical scavenging activity using DPPH method was the strongest in acetate fraction of methanol extract from seed. The methanol extract from omija seed had the strongest antimicrobial activities to L. plantarum, B. subtilis, E. coli and P. citrinum, while ethyl acetate extract had the strongest against S. aureus and S. typhimurium. The buthanol fraction from methanol extract had the highest antimicrobial activities, followed by B. subtilis, L. plantarum, E. coli, S. aureus and S. typhimurium. The nitrite scavenging ability was pH dependent, highest at pH 1.2 and lowest at pH 6.0. The buthanol fraction of methanol extract from omija seed had more effective nitrite scavenging ability than other fractions of extracts.

오미자 종자의 몇가지 용매 추출물과 분획물의 항산화성, 항균성, 아질산염 소거능에 대하여 확인한 결과 다음과 같다. 돈지와 linoleic acid에 대한 항산화력은 오미자종자의 methanol 추출물이, 대두유는 ethanol 추출물이 가장 효과적이었으며 free radical 소거 활성은 methanol추출물의 ethyl acetate 분획에서 DPPH free radical 소거 활성이 가장 컸다. 오미자 종자 추출 용매별 항균 효과는 L. planterum, B. subtilis, E. coli, P. citrinium는 methanol 추출물이, S. aureus와 S. typhimurium은 ethyl acetate 추출물의 항균 활성이 가장 컸다. 전반적으로 항균 활성이 큰 methanol 추출물을 분획하여 항균력을 검토한 바, buthanol 분획물이 L. planterum, B. subtilis, S. aureus, S. typhimurium 및 E. coli에서 항균 활성이 가장 강하였다. 아질산염 소거 효과는 반응 pH가 낮을수록 우수했으며 methanol 추출물의 buthanol 분획이 다른 추출물과 분획물 중에서 가장 높은 아질산염 분해능을 나타내었다.
