Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of methanol extract from Rosmarinus officinalis L. and its fractions. The ethyl acetate fraction of rosemary had a higher antioxidant activity in both DPPH ($3.22\;{\mu}g/ml$) and ABTS ($5.05\;{\mu}g/ml$) compared to other extracts and fractions. Based on the results of the FRAP assay, the ethyl acetate fraction of rosemary showed a value of $5.9{\pm}0.3\;{\mu}M/{\mu}g$, and buthanol fraction and rosmarinic acid exhibited values of $4.8{\pm}0.2\;{\mu}M/{\mu}g$ and $5.1{\pm}0.1\;{\mu}M/{\mu}M$, respectively. Measurements of the antimicrobial activities of the extracts, fraction against gram positive, negative bacteria revealed that the methanol extract, hexane, ethyl acetate, and chloroform fraction of rosemary caused Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli to form clear zones greater than 12 mm. Furthermore, the methanol extract and chloroform fraction showed high antibacterial activity, with inhibition zone exceeding 13 mm. The methanol extract and chloroform fraction of rosemary had broad antimicrobial spectrums and low MIC values. Therefore, methanol extracts of rosemary could serve as potential antibacterial agents to inhibit pathogen growth in food and hand sanitizers.

허브류의 하나인 로즈마리를 추출, 분획하여 각 용매별 항산화와 항균효과를 관찰하였다. 로즈마리의 항산화효과를 측정하기 위해 DPPH radical 소거능과, ABTS radical 소거능 및 FRAP 활성을 측정하였다. DPPH radical 소거능을 측정한 결과 ethyl acetate분획물의 $RC_{50}$값이 $3.22\;{\mu}g/ml$로 강력한 항산화능을 나타냈으며, water 분획물을 제외한 나머지 분획물(methanol: $5.05\;{\mu}g/ml$, hexane: $6.28\;{\mu}g/ml$, chlorofrom: $5.32\;{\mu}g/ml$, buthanol: $5.74\;{\mu}g/ml$)에서도 강력한 항산화능을 보였다. FRAP활성 또한 ethyl acetate 분획물이 $5.9{\pm}0.3\;{\mu}M/{\mu}g$의 높은 $Fe^{2+}$함량을 나타났으며 water 분획물을 제외한 나머지 분획물에서 높은 $Fe^{2+}$함량을 나타내어 DPPH radical 소거능과 유사한 경향을 보였다. ABTS radical 소거능은 ethyl acetate분획물의 $RC_{50}$값이 $5.05\;{\mu}g/ml$, methanol 추출물의 $RC_{50}$값이 $8.72\;{\mu}g/ml$으로 강력한 항산화능을 나타냈으며 그 외 나머지 분획물들은 DPPH radical 소거능보다 상대적으로 낮은 항산화능을 나타냈다. 로즈마리 단일물질로는 rosmarinic acid, carnosic acid가 DPPH radical 소거능과 FRAP활성에 유사한 경향을 보인 반면 ABTS radical 소거능은 rosmarinic acid만이 $43.16\;{\mu}M$에서 $RC_{50}$값을 나타내었다. 로즈마리의 항균 활성은 Paper disc method를 이용한 Inhibition zone과 MIC (최소 저해 농도)를 측정하여 항균력을 알아본 후 hand plate와 resazurin 환원 실험을 통해 항균제와 식품 보존제로서의 이용 가능성을 알아보았다. 항균 활성 검색 결과 methanol 추출물과 chloroform 분획물이 S. aureus에 대해서 2.5 mg/disc의 농도에서 inhibition zone이 각각 15.3 mm, 15.5 mm로 높게 나타났으며 E. coli에 대해서 14.3 mm, 13.7 mm로 나타나 강력한 항균 효과를 나타내었다. MIC는 S. aureaus 균주와 E. coli 균주 모두 methanol 추출물에서 5 mg/ml의 MIC값을 나타내었고 chloroform 분획물은 2 mg/ml에서 MIC값을 나타내었다. 항균활성의 경우 methanol 추출물과 소수성의 hexane, chloroform 분획물에서 높은 활성을 보였다. 위의 결과를 통해 항균제와 식품 보존제 등의 상품화는 경제적이고 그 활성이 우수한 methanol 추출물의 이용이 가장 이상적인 것으로 판단되어 methanol 추출물을 이용하여 항균제와 식품 보존제로의 이용 가능성을 측정한 결과 항균제로는 hand plate를 통해 5 mg/ml에서 식품 보존제로는 resazurin 환원 실험을 통해 1 mg/ml에서 이용이 가능하리라 생각된다.
