Abstract
|
|
|
In this study we evaluated the method to develop red ginseng oil containing high content of phytochemicals by enzymes treatment. To select the optimum extraction process of red ginseng with oils, the antioxidant activities of red ginseng using various enzymes were measured. Red ginseng after 0.5% cellulase treatment for 1 hr at 50¡¯c had higher antioxidant activity than the other conditions. We found that red ginseng/soybean oil extracted for 15 days at 40¡¯c after 0.5% cellulase treatment increased DPPH radical scavenger activity and decreased the TBA and POV values. However, red ginseng/olive oil had little functional activities compare to the red ginseng/soybean 0il. We also analyzed vitamin A and E by HPLC and found that vitamin E was increased by 0.5% cellulase treatment in the oil. This is the first report that red ginseng oil extracted by enzyme treatment has various beneficial effects.
