생리활성을 갖는 새로운 기능성 물질을 개발할 목적으로 9종의 오디(Morus alba L.)를 이용하여 물과 60% 에탄올 추출물을 제조하고 이들의 angiotensin converting enzyme 활성억제효과, xanthine oxidase 활성억제효과, ${alpha}$-amylase 활성억제효과 및 ${alpha}$-glucosidase 활성억제효과를 탐색하여 본 결과, 페놀함량이 청일뽕과 강원3호 품종의 오디에서 물추출물에서 청일뽕과 강원3호 두품종이, 에탄올 추출물에서 대엽조생, 청일뽕, 강원3호, 희학 및 카타네오 등 5 품종이 2 mg/g 이상의 phenolic compound 함량을 나타내었으며, angiotensin converting enzyme 활성억제효과는 물 추출물에서 백운3호가 $90.9{pm}4.5%$, 에탄올 추출물에서는 희학 품종이 $81.8{pm}4.5%$의 활성억제효과를 나타내었다. 또한 xanthine oxidase 활성억제효과는 물 추출물에서 국상20호가 약 10% 정도, 에탄올 추출물에서는 카타네오가 $21.4{pm}2.3%$의 활성억제효과를 나타내었다. 당분해활성에 관여하는 ${alpha}$-amylase와 ${alpha}$-glucosidase 활성억제효과를 측정해 본 결과 물추출물에서만 대엽조생, 수원뽕, 청일뽕, 강원3호, 희학 및 국상20호 등 6품종이 100%의 ${alpha}$-amylase 저해효과가 관찰되었으며, 백운3호, 대엽조생, 청일뽕 및 희학은 물추출물에서, 대축면, 강원3호 및 국상20호는 에탄올 추출물에서 20% 이상의 ${alpha}$-glucosidase 저해효과가 확인되었다. 이상의 결과, 높은 생리활성기능을 나타내는 여러 종의 오디의 물과 에탄올 추출물들은 항고혈압 및 항당뇨 효과가 있는 기능성 식품소재로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
The objective of this research was to develop the functional material of water and 60% ethanol extracts from nine kinds of mulberry fruits (Morus alba L.) that influence the inhibitory activity on angiotensin-converting enzyme, xanthine oxidase, ${alpha}$-amylase, and ${alpha}$-glucosidase. The total phenolic contents in the water extracts were over 2 mg/g in two species (Cheongilppong and Kangwon III) and five species (Daeyoupchosaeng, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Cataneo) of 60% ethanol extracts. The inhibitory activity against the angiotensin-converting enzyme was determined with them. Baekwoon III was $90.9{pm}4.5%$ in the water extracts, and Hihak was $81.8{pm}4.5%$ in the 60% ethanol extracts. The inhibitory activity of Kuksang 20 against xanthin oxidase was about 10% in the water extracts, and Cataneo was $21.4{pm}2.3%$ in the 60% ethanol extracts. Six of the species (Daeyoupchosaeng, Suwonppong, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Kuksang 20) in the water extracts showed inhibitory activities against ${alpha}$-amylase, as 100%, respectively. The inhibitory activity of ${alpha}$-glucosidase was determined for these nine species. Four species (Baekwoon III, Daeyoupchosaeng, Cheongilppong, Kangwon III, Hihak, and Kuksang 20) in the water extracts and three species (Daechoukmyeun, Kangwon III, and Kuksang 20) in the 60% ethanol extracts showed inhibition of over 20%. The results revealed strong biological activity in spite of little total phenolic contents. These water and 60% ethanol extracts with high-quality biological activity from various mulberry fruits (Morus alba L.) are expected to represent good candidates for the development of antihypertentive and antidiabetes sources.
