To develop a new functional material, leaf, stem and root of Panax gjnseng were analyzed in their antioxidant activities. Root and leaf of ginseng collected from 3 regions, exhibited inhibition activity as 45.2{sim}54.3%;and;90.1{sim}96.5% on peroxidation of low density lipoprotein and linoleic acid, respectively. Scavenging activities of stem, leaf and root of ginseng on superoxide anion radical were 35.6{sim}76.1%,;60.1{sim}69.3%;and;-5.6{sim}20.1%, respectively. Total phenol contents of leaf, stem and root of ginseng were 147{sim}200;mg%,;110{sim}153;mg%;and;61{sim}86;mg% respectively as tannic acid equivalent.
