This study was performedto investigate antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Menthaarvensisethanol extracts, whichwere extracted depending on ethanol concentrations. Yield of total extractshowed the highest level with 17.3% in the30% ethanol extract. Total polyphenolic contentsin the50% and 70% ethanol extracts wasdetected by relatively more amounts when compared withthose of theother extracts, whereas total flavonoid in 100% ethanol extract was showed by the most content. As a result consistent with the total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, the highest activities fromDPPH, ABTS and FRAP assayswere detectedinthe 70%, 100%, and 50% ethanol extracts, respectively. Antimicrobial activities against Clostridium perfringens and Escherichia coli were strongly detected fromthe 70% and 100% ethanol extracts. Therefore, we suggest thattotal polyphenol and flavonoid contents from the M. arvensis ethanol extracts are directly associated with antioxidant and antibacterial activities.
