Abstract	Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Catholic University of DaeguAbstract In this study, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of ethanol extracts from medicinal herb mixtures wereinvestigated in vitro. Contents of total polyphenols in ethanol extracts from Houttuynia cordata Thunb. (HC), Carthamustinctorius L. (CT), and MIX-2 (Houttuynia cordata Thunb., Acanthopanax gracilistylus Smith, Carthamus tinctorius L.,Kalopanax pictus) were 58.98, 60.79 and 57.74 mg/g respectively. Radical scavenging activities of the ethanol extractswere examined using α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl radicals and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) assay.Anti-inflammatory effects of ethanol extracts from medicinal herbs composites were examined using 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and nitric oxide (NO) inhibition assays. The ethanol extracts from medicinal herbmixtures showed higher 5-LO and COX-2 inhibition activities than those from single medicinal herbs. The ethanol extractsfrom medicinal herb mixtures also showed strong anti-inflammatory activity through inhibition of NO production.Keywords: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, medicinal herb, 5-lipoxygenase, cyclooxygenase-2
