The free radical scavenging activities of extracts from kimchi, as well as various antioxidant activities, such as 2,2-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were examined. Specifically, the ABTS radical scavenging and FRAP activities of ethanolic extracts from kimchi (kimchi with non-treated salt fermented anchovy, treated non-heat salt fermented anchovy, treated heat salt fermented anchovy and commercial salt-fermented anchovy) were 0.749±0.26, 0.895±0.15, 0.758±0.12, and 0.769±0.02 mM Trolox eq./mg extract and 0.727±0.11, 0.901±0.03, 0.811±0.17, and 0.843±0.16 mM FeSO4 eq./mg extract, respectively. In addition, the antioxidant activity of extract from kimchi was estimated in vivo. Mice were randomly divided into six groups (n=6), and treated with LPS for 10 days, which resulted in lower antioxidant capacities as well as increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) values in the blood serum. Furthermore, antioxidant enzymes (catalase and superoxide dismutase) in blood serum increased in the presence of the kimchi. The present results reveal antioxidant activities from kimchi and encourage their application for the food industry and cooking.
