Protective effect against neuronal cell and antibacterial effect of mulberry fruit extracts

We carried out functional evaluation on the protective effect on cerebral cell and antibacterial activities with mulberry fruits extracts. As a result, 1% HCl-MeOH extract showed 37% cytoprotective effect on hydrogen peroxide, also Cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G) identified mulberry fruits and cyanidin showed 52%, 76%, respectively, protective effects on oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). In the antibacterial activity of mulberry fruit extracts, MeOH-Cheongil extract showed the highest inhibitory activity. And Salmonella typhimurium was shown inhibitory rate more than 70% in all treatment groups. Also Klebsiella pneumoniae was shown inhibitory activity in all treatment groups, too.
