        This study was designed to analyze the chemical composition of essential oil in ‘Shiranuhi’ immature fruitand to test their biological activities. ‘Shiranuhi’ immature essential oils (SIEO) were obtained by steam distillation fromfruits collected from Jeju Island and were analyzed using gas chromatograph (GC)-flame ionization detectors (FID) andGC-MS. Fourteen components were identified in the essential oil. Limonene (75.21%) and terpineol (8.68%) were the majorcomponents in SIEO. Since acne vulgaris is the combined result of a bacterial infection and the inflammatory response tothat infection, we examined whether SIEO possessed antibacterial against skin pathogens. As a result, SIEO showed excel-lent antibacterial activities against drug-susceptible and -resistant Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis,which are acne-causing bacteria. In this study, SIEO was examined on DPPH radical scavenging activities, which showedmoderate antioxidant activity (SC50, 15.36µL/mL). In order to determined whether SIEO can be safely applied to humanskin, the cytotoxicity effects of SIEO were determined by colorimetric MTT assays in normal human fibroblasts and kerati-nocyte HaCaT cells. They exhibited low cytotoxicity at 0.5µL/mL in both celllines. Based on these results, we suggest thepossibility that essential oil of ‘Shiranuhi’ maybe considered as an antibacterial and antioxidant agent.
