With the recent well-being craze and the growing preference for organic foods, various plant resources with functional effects such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and whitening properties are being developed, in order to produce a functional, natural cosmetic material for cosmetics. The present researcher studied Acanthopanax sessiliflorus seeman as a material for functional cosmetics and came up with the following findings. The extraction yield of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus seeman methanol was found to be 6.95%. The total flavonoid content was found to be 3.393 ± 5.48 ㎎(TAE)/g. In the DPPH radical scavenging activity measurement, the scavenging activity was over 91.49% at a concentration of over 0.25%, which was on the same level as BHT, an existing antioxidant. Measurements of the cytotoxicity of the NIH/3T3 cell revealed that there was no cytotoxicity but the growth of the cell increases proportionally according to the treatment concentration. After the scavenging activity was measured for the nitrite by causing a reaction in pH of 1.2, it was found that there was similar scavenging activity to that of BHT, as with the scavenging activity of the DPPH radical. Concerning Staphylococus aureus and staphylococcus epidermidis, when the antibacterial ability of the Acanthopanax sessiliflorus seeman methanol extract was measured, it was found that the clear zone increased proportionally according to the increase in the concentration of the extract. From this, it was confirmed that antibacterial activity is dependent on the concentration. From the aforementioned research findings, the Acanthopanax sessiliflorus seeman methanol extract is deemed to have potential as a functional cosmetic material with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
