Article Synopsis
- The study examined the ginsenoside composition and antioxidant properties of hydroponic-cultured ginseng roots (HCR), leaves (HCL), and stems (HCS) using high-performance liquid chromatography.
- It found that HCL and HCS had significantly higher total ginsenoside contents compared to HCR, with Rg1 being the most abundant in leaves while Rb1 was more concentrated in roots.
- The research also demonstrated that HCL exhibited the strongest antioxidant activity and the highest inhibitory effect on tyrosinase activity, suggesting that the entire ginseng plant has beneficial properties as a functional vegetable.
