Abstract
|

|
|
To evaluate whether chaff vinegar liquor (CVL) has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms in mice, we tested the anti-allergic activities with a DNFB (dinitrofluorobenzene)-induced allergic mouse model. The DNFB-induced allergic symptoms were reduced by 20% compared to the control by chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with Perilla frutescens var. acuta. Allergic symptoms were examined by measuring the width of epidermis swelling. The hematoxyline & eosin (H&E) staining also revealed that the chaff vinegar liquor dramatically decreased the allergic symptoms in the epidermis of the ear. These results collectively suggest that the chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with P. frutescens var. acuta has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms, showing that the liquor could be a useful biomaterial(s) for the nutraceutical or cosmetic industries.
