Abstract

This study examined the total phenolic and flavonoid compounds, and the antioxi dant activity of major cultivars of Prunus mume in Korea. The total phenolic content ranged from 64.13 to $93.43mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$, with the content in 'Osuku' being higher than that in the other cultivars; a difference in the content among cultivars was observed. The total flavonoid content was $6.16{\sim}18.57mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$, showing a significant difference, with the highest content being noted in 'Gojirou'. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was measured and was relatively high for Nanko, Kamakami, Natsuka, Dana, and Osuku cultivars. When ABTS radical scavenging activity was measured, all the cultivars showed a scavenging activity over 80%, with the scavenging activity of 'Osuku' being the highest. With respect to nitrite scavenging ability, all cultivars exhibited a high scavenging activity of over 50%, with the highest activity observed for 'Nanko' (76.03%), 'Gojirou' (70.56%), and 'Yourou' (70.32%). Based on the study results, it is considered that Prunus mume can be a useful resource because of various substances with functional physiological activities.

본 연구에서는 국내 주요재배 매실 품종의 총 페놀, 플라보노이드 함량과 항산화 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 총 페놀 함량은 $64.13-93.43mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$으로 품종 간 함량에 차이가 있었다. 이 중 '앵숙'과 '단아'의 함량이 비교적 높게 나타났다. 또한 총 플라보노이드 함량을 측정한 결과 $6.16-18.57mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$으로 총 페놀과 같이 품종 간에 유의적인 함량 차이를 보였다. 이 중 '고성'에서 가장 높은 함량을 보였다. DPPH 라디칼 소거활성을 측정한 결과 '남고', '회향실', '장속', '단아', '앵숙'에서 모두 50% 이상 비교적 강하게 나타났다. ABTS 라디칼 소거활성 측정 결과 모든 품종에서 80% 이상으로 전체적으로 높은 소거할성을 보였다. 이 중 '앵숙'이 가장 높은 소거활성을 보였다. 아질산염 소거 능력은 모든 품종에서 50% 이상의 높은 소거능력을 가지고 있는 것으로 확인 되었는데 이중 '남고'(76.03%), '고성'(70.56%), '양로'(70.32%)에서 70% 이상으로 비교적 높은 소거 활성을 보였다.
