본 연구에서는 in vitro에서 모과의 항산화 활성을 평가하기 위하여 용매별 분획물의 항산화능을 검토하였다. 모과에탄올 추출물의 수율은 9.23%이었고, 이를 n-hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, n-butanol, water로 계통 분획한 수율은 water분획물이 1.52%로 가장 높았으며 그 다음으로 ethylacetate 분획물 1.46%의 순이었다. 모과 에탄을 추출물의 총 flavonoid 함량은 이었고, 각

This study was performed to investigate the antioxidant effect of 80% (v/v) ethanol extract from Chaenomelis Fructus (CF). Total flavonoids and total polyphenols in the extract were also measured spectrophotometrically. The extraction yield was 9.23g/100g CF. The extract was further fractionated by partition with n-hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol, and water. The water fraction showed the highest extraction yield of all fractions. The n-hexane method and compared with the properties of the commerical antioxidant BHT. The activities of the n-hexane fraction were the highest of all fractions. In addition, there was strong positive correlation between antioxidant activities and levels of antioxidative compounds, such as flavonoid and polyphenols, in CF fractions, suggesting that these antioxidative compounds may contribute to the antioxidative effect of CF.
