The present study was carried out to isolate and identify of antioxidants from makgeolli. Makgeolli (3 L) was filtered and the residue was extracted by MeOH. The combined filtrates and MeOH extracts were successively solventfractionated by n-hexane, EtOAc, and BuOH. In the antioxidative activity against DPPH and ABTS + radicals of each fraction obtained after solvent-fractionation, EtOAc and BuOH layers showed higher activities than other fractions. Therefore, the two layers were respectively purified by column chromatography and HPLC. The isolated compounds were subjected to NMR and MS analyses and identified as 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1, 2.0 mg), 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanol (2, tyrosol, 15.3 mg), trans-and cis-ferulic acids (3 and 4, 1.2 mg), 1H-indole-3-ethanol (5, tryptophol, 3.4 mg), dimethyl succinate (6, 14.9 mg), succinic acid (7, 7.4 mg), and mono-methyl succinate (8, 7.8 mg). The presence of 1-5 in makgeolli have never before been reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
