天然 抗酸化劑의 動向과 方向에 關한 硏究

A Study on the tendency and direction of natural antioxidant

&nbsp;&nbsp;As natural antioxidant is extracted from plants, it is necessary that the research should be done to study the methods for producing more factors and extracting easily by the tissue culture and gene manipulation. General plants have a long growth period and they are seasonal. So, In order to overcome the difficulty, it is demanded to try different ways such as raising plants indoors, producing some special substance by gene manipulation and separating the objective substance by tissue culture. The reason why the natural substance is getting so popular is that we can get a lot of various substances and new compounds which have new functions. Natural antioxidant should be studied more based upon the researches which are done and the search for new plants.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to discover the first natural antioxidant from unexplored plants, studies on searching the simple methods, separating substance and refining system have to be done. Since antioxidizing vitamins from natural antioxidant are effective on anti-cancer and anti-tumor, and are relevant with suppression of other disease through free radical action, the research about physiological period should be conducted more. In the case of other natural antioxidant except antioxidizing vitamins, it should be studied concretely and systematically whether it has physiological action or not, and examined closely about the functions. When the functions are examined, natural antioxidant will be more welcome not simply as prevention from food deterioration but as physiological acting substance, and then this will be the good way to solve the financial problem for commercializing natural antioxidant.
