Studies on Identification of the Anthocyanins in Elderberries (Sambucus)

Elderberry(Sambucus) Anthocyanin에 관한 연구(硏究)

Studies have been carried out on the structure and the content of the anthocyanins in elderberries which were just recently transplanted in Korea. The anthocyanin pigments of elderberries were extracted with 1 % methanolic HCl and purified with Amberlite IRC-50 cation exchange column. The individual pigments were isolated by paper chromatography. Five pigments, identified by various chemical and physical methods were cyanidin-3-monoglucoside(4.3%), cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside(28.3%), cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside with p-coumaric arid(12.9%), cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside(38.3%), cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside with p-coumaric acid(16.2%). The content of total anthocyanin in elderberry was 3.13 mg/g fresh weight.

우리나라에서 처음 재배(栽培)를 시작한 elderberry anthocyanin의 화학구조(化學構造)를 동정하고 함량(含量)을 측정(測定)하였다. Elderberry열매에서 1% HCl MeOH로 추출(抽出)하여 얻은 색소농축액(色素濃縮液)을 Amberlite IRC-50 양(陽)이온교환수지관을 통과시켜 정제(精製)하고 paper chromatography로 개별색소(個別色素)를 분리(分離)하였다. 각(各) 개별색소(個別色素)에 대해 부분산가수분해(部分酸加水分解), acyl group, 결합당(結合糖), aglycone의 확인(確認), paper chromatography로 얻은 $R_f$값, spectral data 등을 기초로 구조를 확인(確認)하였다. 확인(確認)된 elderberry중(中)의 5가지 색소(色素)는 cyanidin-3-glucoside, cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside, cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside with p-coumaric arid, cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside, cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside with p-coumaric acid이었다. 총 anthocyanin양은 elderberry 1g당 3.13mg이고 개별색소(個別色素)의 비(比)는 cyanidin-3-glucoside 4.3%, cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside 28.3%, cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside with p-coumaric arid 12.9%, cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside 38.3%, cyanidin-3-xyloglucoside-5-glucoside with p-coumaric acid가 16.2%이었다.
