광릉쥐오줌풀과 넓은잎쥐오줌풀을 표고가 다른 지역에서 생육시켜 유효성분의 차이를 조사하였다. 정유함량은 산지에 따른 차이가 인정되지 않았으나, 정유조성은 미미한 차이를 보였다. 양적으로 많이 함유된 성분은 광릉쥐오줌풀에서는 모든 지역에서 bornyl acetate 및 sesquiterpene alcohol이었고, 넓은잎쥐오줌풀에서는 borneol, bornyl actate 및 ${eta};-sesquiphellandrene$이었다. 유럽산과 네팔산의 주요 약리성분으로 알려져 있는 valepotriate 화합물 중 valtrate가 광릉쥐오줌풀 및 중국산쥐오줌풀에서 미량 검출되었으며, 이의 함량은 산지에 따라 큰 차이는 없었다.
This study was conducted to know the effect of cultivation area with different sea levels on essential oil content and its composition and content of major active compounds in Valerian fauriei var. dasycarpa HARA and Valerian officinalis L. The total contents of essential oil were not different according to the locality in both valerian, however, its compositions were varied. The major components in V. fauriei were detected bornyl acetate and sesquiterpene alcohol in three cultivation areas. The major compounds were borneol, borney acetate, ${eta};-sesquiohellandrene$ in V. officinalis other. Among the valepotrate components known as major pharaceutically active components in Europe and Nepal valerian, valtrate was detected in a small amount in V. fauriei, but its quantity was not changed according to the cultivation area.
