Background : Cirsium setidens is a perennial wild herb that belongs to the Asteraceae family. It grows in the mountainous region of Gangwon-do in Korea and is also called gondre. The bioconversion technology applied in this study has the same meaning as biosynthesis, biocatalyst, etc., and refers to a technique for producing desired products from precursors using enzymatic functions of microorganisms. Therefore, useful microorganisms having immunological activity were selected and Cirsium setidens fermentation products were prepared by applying bioconversion technology. And fermented product extracts were prepared to consider as a good sources of natural immune enhancement and functional food ingredients.
Methods and Results : Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Weissella cibaria, and Lactobacillus plantarum were used as isolates from traditional foods. The fermentation product was set to a condition that the inherent physical properties did not change and did not generate a unique odor during fermentation. Cirsium setidens was fermented at 37℃ for 24 hours. And the fermented material was sterilized at 9 0℃ for 1 hour and then dried at 70℃ and pulverized. The contents of pectolinarin and pectolinarigenin, which are non - glycosides, were analyzed before and after fermentation using HPLC. Also NO production was measured in RAW264.7 cells after extract treatment at various concentrations using Griess reagent kit . The content of pectolinarin was increased in fermented Crisium setidens before fermentation, but the content of pectolinarigenin was increased after fermentation. In addition, the water extract of the fermented material accelerated the NO production compared to the pre - fermented material.
Conclusion : As a result, relatively high immunostimulating effect were observed in dried Crisium setidens after fermentation, and it was confirmed that it could be a ingredient material for health functional food.
