This study aimed to investigate the biological activities, including polyphenolic content, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activities, of various cultivars of Korean perilla leaves. The results indicated that among nine cultivars (Namcheon dlggae, Saedora, Nulbora, Donggel 1, Donggell 2, Soim, Sangyeop, Somirang, and Saebom) of perilla leaves, the total polyphenolic content (gallic acid equivalent mg/g, GAE) was the highest in “Nulbora,” while it was lowest in Namcheon dlggae. Moreover, flavonoid content in the extracts of nine cultivars leaves was in the range of 132.93~268.50 mg catechin equivalent/g sample. The antioxidant effects of the perilla leaves were determined using two different in vitro bioassays measuring DPPH and ABTS radical-scavenging activities. The results revealed that antioxidant activity was also higher in “Nulbora” compared with other cultivars. Xanthin-oxidase-inhibition activity ranged from 65.65% to 80.58%, with “Nulbora” exhibiting the highest activity, although the difference with other cultivars was not significant. “Nulbora” extracts reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory genes and several cytokines, including IL-6 activation induced by LPS in macrophages in the range of 100–50 μg/mL. These results suggest that extracts from perilla leaves can be used as bioactive and functional materials that could be important in industrial applications in the future.

저장조건에 따른 금산 추부깻잎의 물리적 특성을 분석하였다. 깻잎의 a/b값은 저장기간이 증 가할수록 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 저장온도 25℃와 4℃에서 제 1주성분 값의 기여율은 각각 93.07%, 97.81%로 나타나 전자코를 이용한 저장온도에 따른 휘발성 향기성분 패턴의 구별이 가능하였다. 저장기 간에 따른 제 1주성분 값의 변화는 저장온도 25℃에 비해 4℃에서 변화의 폭이 적었음을 확인할 수 있 었다.

Electrolyzed water (EW) has been regarded as a new sanitizer by food industry. In this study, EW was used for perilla leaves sanitization. The optimum EW was produced at flow rates of brine and water of 100 mL/min and 300 mL/min, respectively. By soaking in EW only, the initial microbial counts of aerobic bacteria were reduced by 1.73 log(CFU/g), while 1.94 log(CFU/g) reduction was noted by using EW soaking followed by CDPJ treatment. In similar manner, counts of yeasts and molds were reduced by 1.83 and 2.06 log(CFU/g); coliform were reduced by 1.13 and 1.3 log(CFU/g), respectively. Combination of EW and CDPJ was more effective for microbial reduction. EW treatment did not affect sensory properties, instrumental color characteristics. However, it was observed that total phenolics and DPPH radical scavenging activity of perilla leaves were significantly increased with EW soaking time.

본 연구는 들깻잎과 들깻잎 생산 환경을 대상으로 S. aureus를 분리하고 MLVA를 이용해 분리된 S. aureus의 오 염경로를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 들깻잎에서 S. aureus의 검출빈도는 7.9% (9/114)였고 검출수준은 0~2.92 log10 CFU/ g였으며 2곳의 농가에서 S. aureus가 2.00 log10CFU/g 이상으로 검출되었다. S. aureus가 분리된 5농가를 대상으로 들깻잎과 직접 접촉하는 시료에서 S. aureus를 분리하였으며 5 농가 중 3농가의 작업환경 (농가의 포장대, 포장비 닐, 작업자 손, 복장 등)에서 S. aureus가 검출되었다. 들 깻잎과 생산 환경에서 분리된 S. aureus를 대상으로 MLVA 를 수행했을 때 포장대, 작업자의 손, 포장비닐 및 관개용 수에서 분리된 균주와 들깻잎에서 분리된 S. aureus가 동일한 패턴을 보여 들깻잎의 오염은 이들 시료와 연관되어 있을 것으로 추정된다. 따라서 MLVA를 이용한 유전자 typing은 농산물이나 식품 중 S. aureus의 오염원을 신속 하고 경제적으로 구명하는데 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단 된다.

This study was performed to compared the effectiveness of individual treatments (electrolyzed water: EW, organic acid, and ultrasound) and their combination on reducing foodborne pathogens from perilla leaves. Perilla leaves were innoculated with a cocktail of Salmonella Typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus. Inoculated perilla leaves were treated with EW combined with different concentration of acetic acid (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%) for 1 min at room temperature. Treatment of 3 pathogens on perilla leaves with electrolyzed water combined with ultrasound (25 kHz) and 0.5% acetic acid was also performed for 1 min. While the numbers of S. Typhimurium and B. cereus showed reduced with increasing acetic acid concentration, there is no difference in the number of S. aureus treated with EW containing 0.5% to 1.5% acetic acid. Discoloration was observed the perilla leaves treated with EW combined with more than 1.0% acetic acid. For all three pathogens, the combined treatment of EW and ultrasound resulted in additional 0.42 to 0.72 log10 CFU/g. The maxium reductions of S. Typhimurium and B. cereus were 0.95, 1.23 log10 CFU/g after treatment with EW combined with 0.5% acetic acid and ultrasound simultaneously. The results suggest that the treatment of EW combined with 0.5% acetic acid and ultrasound increased pathogens reduction compared to individual treatment.

Temperature-dependent development studies of two aphid species, A. egomae and A. gossypii occurring in green perilla greenhouse were conducted at 15~35℃, and 16:8 (L:D h) of light period in the laboratory. The mortality of two aphid species was high in young stages (1st and 2nd). In A. egomae, the mortalitiy increased with increasing and decreasing temperature: the mortalitie at 15℃ and 35℃ were 22.3% and 15.6%, respectively. While the mortalities of A. gossypii increased with increasing temperature: the mortality at 35℃ was 50.0%. The developmental periods of A. egomae and A. gossypii ranged from 20.8days to 5.4days and from 22.6days to 9.1days at 15℃ to 30℃ of temperature resion, respectively, and were 7.2days and 10.7days at 35℃ for each species. The lower developmental threshold temperatures for total nymphs of A. egoame and A. gossypii were 9.9℃ and 4.9℃, respectively and an effective degree-days (DD) for the developmental completion of total nymph were 108.0 DD for A. egomae and 221.2DD for A. gossypii. In green perilla greenhouse, the occurrence period of A. gossypii was earlier about 15 days than that of A. egomae. When the occurrence period of two aphid species was estimated by degree-days based on lower threshold temperatures, A. gossypii occurred earlier than A. egomae in the field. A. gossypii occurred from early April and showed dominant position to late May compared with A. egomae. Whereas, A egomae started to occur from mid April and then were abundant after late May followed by abrupt population crash around late July.

Background : Perilla leaves (Perilla frutescens) are known to possess antioxidant activity and have long been used to treat a variety of health related issues. The present study was conduct ed to compare the antioxidant activity among perilla accessions collected from Russia. Method and Results : The leaves of a total of 46 accessions of perilla were collected from Russia. Crude extracts were obtained from 2 g of oven-dried perilla leaves using ASE-350 extractor. Total phenolic content (TPC) was determined by Folin-Ciocalteu method and antioxidant activities were estimated by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (A BTS) radical scavenging activities, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and reducing power (RP). TPC was ranged from 88.70 to 148.85 ㎍ gallic acid equivalent (GAE) /㎎ dried extract (DE). DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, and RP were ranged from 59.49 to 94.80 ㎍ ascorbic acid equivalent (ASCE) /㎎ DE, 73.01 to 190.59 ㎍ ASCE /㎎ DE, 98.73 to 326.39 ㎍ ASCE /㎎ DE, 82.58 to 264.88 ㎍ ASCE /㎎ DE, respectively. Cluster analysis based on antioxidant assay results of 46 perilla accessions divided into three major groups. Group Ⅰ (9 accessions) characterized as higher antioxidant activity accessions than other group (p < 0.001). The correlations between antioxidant assays were strong and positive (r ≧ 0.78). Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the first two principal components together explained 92.96 % total variation. Conclusion : Among the perilla accessions collected from Russia, group accessions clustered in group Ⅱ showed high antioxidant activity. Our results indicated that accessions IT274300, IT226732 and IT274293 could be used as a source of valuable natural antioxidant materials.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of fertilizer application on the content of functional materials, such as fatty acids and organic acids in perilla leaves. (1) As compared to the controlled with Ammonium sulfate fertilizer, the yield of Perilla frutescens leaves increased by 7.3% and 12.8% of biomass at 2000 and 1000 times liquid respectively, but decreased by 7.6% at 500 times. The lipid and protein contents of perilla leaves were higher than those of Portunus trituberculatus liquid at 1000 times. The average contents of minerals (mg/100g) were as follows; K (638.4) > Ca (561.6) > P (145.4) > Mg (133.5) > Fe (36.2) > Zn (1.9) > Mn (1.6) > Na (1.4 mg). However, the correlation between the controlled with P. trituberculatus liquid was relatively low. (2) The fat-soluble vitamin E content of P. frutescens leaves was 3.4, 3.9, 3.3, and 3.9 mg in the controlled with liquid by 500, and 1000, 2000 times respectively; Vitamin A contents were 6.4, 8.9, 10.9, and 8.5 mg respectively, which was more than twice as much as the corresponding vitamin E content. The water soluble vitamin C contents were 177.9, 172.6, 195.2, and 163.5 mg respectively. (3) Amino acid contents of P. frutescens leaves in 100 g of fresh weight were 3821.7 mg in the controlled with Ammonium sulfate fertilizer and 3918.8, 4054.0, and 4005.4 mg in the controlled with P. trituberculatus liquid at 2,000, 1000, 500 times respectively. Amino acid contents of each controlled group with P. trituberculatus liquid above were as small as 2.5~6.1%, and these contents of amino acid were as follows: Glutaminic acid > Aspartic acid > Leucine > Arginine > Phenylalanine. In further study, it is necessary to develop an effective microorganism and a variety of amino acid fertilizer to supplement the study on new manufacturing.
