뽕잎과 오디를 물, 50% 에탄올, 100% 에탄올 용매를 이용하여 microwave로 추출하여 이의 생리활성을 측정하였다. 뽕잎과 오디의 전자공여작용의 측정결과 모두 용매별 차이를 보였으며, 물과 50% 에탄올 추출물에서 로 높은 활성을 보였다. Tyrosinase는 로 20% 내외의 결과를 보였으며 용매별 차이는 없었다. SOD 유사활성 측정결과 뽕잎과 오디 모두 에탄올 농도가 증가할수록 활성이 감소하는 경향을 보여 물 추출물의 활성이 높게

Physiological activities in mulberry leaf and fruit were examined. Electron-donating ability (EDA), tyrosinase activity, SOD-like action (SOD), angiotensin I-converting enzyme-(ACE) inhibitory activity,and nitrite-scavenging ability of mulberry leaf and fruitextracted with water, with 50% (v/v) or with 100% ethanol, were measured. The EDA of mulberry leaf and fruit extracted with water or 50% (v/v) ethanol were greater (by 65.72-81.30%) than that with the 100% ethanol extract, whereas the activities of both former extracts were lower than those with 1.0% and 0.1% (both w/v) L-ascorbate solutions. The SOD-like activities of water, 50% (v/v) and 100% ethanol extracts of all samples were 24.13.26.80% lower than those of 1.0% and 0.1% (both w/v) L-ascorbate solutions. Nitrite-scavenging activity at pH 1.2 was observed in all extracts. The results further our understanding of the physiological activities of mulberry leaf and fruit extracts.
