Abstract

Results regarding the anti-oxidative, anti-allergic, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer effects of lotus leaf and dandelion have been reported through active research on the medical effects of medicine prepared from crude drugs. This paper aimed to examine the anti-bacterial effect of lotus leaf and dandelion extracts on S. mutans by evaluating the colony forming unit and growth curve. In accordance with the growth inhibition rate of S. mutans according to the addition of lotus leaf and dandelion extracts, the higher the extract concentration was, the higher the growth inhibition rate of S. mutans was. This paper therefore verifies that lotus leaf and dandelion extracts have an effect in inhibiting the growth of S. mutans.

최근에 연잎과 민들레 추출물의 약리작용에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어져 항산화작용, 항알레르기효과, 항균작용, 항암활성 등에 관한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 colony forming unit와 흡광도를 측정하여 연잎과 민들레 추출물이 S. mutans에 미치는 성장억제효과를 연구하였다. 추출물의 첨가에 따른 S. mutans의 성장억제율을 측정한 결과, 추출물의 농도가 높아질수록 S. mutans의 성장억제율도 높아지는 결과를 얻었다. 이로써 연잎과 민들레 추출물은 S. mutans의 성장을 억제하는 항균효과를 가지고 있음을 본 연구에서 확인 할 수 있었다.
