The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidative and antiallergic effects of aronia extract. The aronia extract was tested for various antioxidative potentials (scavenging activity of 1,1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and superoxide anion radical) and inhibitory effect of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and cyclooxygenase (COX). In aronia extract, polyphenol content was 81.6±3.3 ㎎/g and flavonoid content was 5.15±0.16 ㎎/g. DPPH radical-scavenging activity (SC??) of aronia extract was 6.15±0.343 ppm. SC?? value of aronia extract against superoxide anion radical was 6.99±1.28 ppm. In addition, IC?? values of aronia extract against 5-LO, COX-1, and COX-2 were 42.07±0.15 ppm, 24±4.29 ppm, and 24.3±3.5 ppm, respectively. These results suggest that aronia extract may be useful for the prevention or treatment of allergic disease.
