본 연구는 진범의 in-vitro 생리활성과 진범 향이 신경생리학적으로 뇌파에 미치는 영향을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 진범 향 및 재조합 향 흡입 시 흡입 전에 비해 뇌파지표 absolute alpha power spectrum (AA)와 absolute theta power spectrum (AT)가 유의미하게 감소하였으며(p<0.05), 진범과 진범 재조합 향 흡입 시 출현한 파형의 유발 부위가 각각 조금씩 다른 양상을 나타내기는 하였지만, 동일하게 alpha와 theta파가 나타났으며, 증가율 역시 향 흡입 시 감소하는 동일 양상을 나타내어 뇌에 각성효과를 일으킨 것으로 판단된다. 진범의 생리활성검증 결과 수렴효과를 제외한 DPPH, collagenase, nitric oxide 저해활성 검증에서 진범 에탄올 추출물의 활성이 열수 추출물에 비해 우수하였으며, 특히 collagenase저해활성에서 진범 에탄올 추출물 500 ppm에서 80%의 저해활성을 나타내었으며, 또한 nitric oxide 저해활성에서 진범 열수 및 에탄올 추출물 100 ppm에서 50% 이상의 NO저해활성을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로부터 진범은 화장품 및 향료 개발의 천연소재로 사용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
This study analyzed the in vitro physiological activity of Aconitum pseudolaeve var erectum Nakai (AP) and its effect on perfume on an electroencephalogram (EEG). The results indicated that the absolute alpha power spectrum (AA) and the absolute theta power spectrum (AT) decreased significantly during more than before the inhalation of the AP perfume and its reconstruction perfume. Although there were a little different pattern in the induced part of the wave generated by the inhalation of the AP perfume and its reconstruction perfume, alpha- and theta- were shown equally. In addition, there was the same pattern in which the rate of increase reduced. The results suggest that the perfume of the AP and its reconstruction perfume have a stimulating effect on the brain. In terms of the physiological activity of AP, the activity of AP ethanol extract was significantly higher than that of water extract in DPPH, collagenase, and nitric oxide, except for an astringent effect. The AP ethanol extract was about 80% at 500 ppm in collagenase inhibition activity. In addition, the AP water and ethanol extracts were 50% at 100 ppm in the NO inhibition activity. Based on these results, we conclude that this natural substance could be used in cosmetics and in the development of perfumes.
