저장방법에 따른 삼백초 생근경의 품질과 유효성분 함량의 변화를 조사하였다. 감모율과 부패율 및 맹아수는 저장기간이 경과할수록 증가하거나 많았다. 감모정도와 맹아수는 저온저장에서 가장 적었으며, 부패율은 창고 내 흙 충진 저장에서 낮았다. 삼백초 근경의 chromatogram상 각 성분의 머무름시간(RT)은 $18{sim}36$분대로 saucernetin>sauchinone>manassantin A>saucerneol D>manassantin B의 순으로 나타났다. Lignans의 함량은 저장방법 모두 저장 후 30일에 비해 120일에 낮았으나, 저장방법간에는 차이가 없었고 manassantin B>manassantin A>saucernetin>sauchinone>saucerneol D의 순으로 함량이 높았다.
This study was carried out to investigate the qualities of Saururus chinensis Baill. rhizomes and it content of active ingredient accenting to the storage methods. As the storage period increased the rates of weight loss, rotten rhizomes and the number of sprouts increased. Refrigerator storage resulted in the lowest weight reduction and sprouts rates, while storage in soil-filled box in a store-house was most effective in reducing spoilage rate. Five lignans from rhizome were determined by HPLC Retention time ranged $18{sim}36$ minutes and showed saucernetin sauchinone, manassantin A, saucerneol D, and manassantin B in that order. Regardless of storage methods, the lignan content was lower after 120 days than after 30 days of storage, and increased manassantin B, manassantin A, saucernetin sauchinone, and saucerneol D in that order.
