Abstract

Cooking basic information for indexing of fresh ginseng roots (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) was determined. Ginsenoside contents of various age fresh ginseng roots cultivated in Northeast Asia were quantitatively analyzed by HPLC. Average contents of total saponin and each ginsenoside of 4-year-old fresh ginseng root cultivated in Korea were higher than those cultivated fur longer periods (5- and 6-year-old). One-way analysis variance showed average contents of total saponin and each ginsenoside of 4-, 5-, and 6-year-old fresh ginseng roots were not statistically significant. Four-year-old fresh ginseng root cultivated at Geumsan, Korea contained the highest ginsenoside content among samples studied.

한국산 6개 지역(금산, 강화, 풍기, 음성, 진안, 홍천) 수삼의 ginsenoside 함량을 비교 분석하여 평균 및 분산분석(일원배치법)을 통계 처리한 결과, 함량의 평균치가 4년근 수삼이 가장 높은 함유량을 나타내었고, 다음으로 5년근, 6년근 순 이었으나, 인삼사포닌에 대한 연근별 차이에 있어서 통계적 처리에 의한 유의적 차이는 없었다. 동북아시아의 또 다른 인삼 재배지인 중국 길림성과 일본의 나가노산 수삼과의 ginsenoside 함량에 있어서는 한국 금산산 수삼이 중국 길림성산 및 일본산에 비하여 높은 함유량을 나타내었다.
