Abstract
We investigated the potential hypouricemic and antioxidant activities of soy vinegar brewed from soybeans fermented withKCCM 60084 in potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemic mice. Soy vinegar extracts (SVEs), which contain free isoflavones, ubiquinones,-aminobutyric acid, gallic acid, and acetic acid, reduced the level of uric acid (UA) by decreasing UA production through xanthine oxidase inhibition and increasing UA excretion through uricase activity in hyperuricemic mice ( < .05). Moreover, SVE administration increased hepatic antioxidant enzyme activities in a dose-dependent manner. The results suggest that soy vinegar has potential with natural ingredients to prevent and treat hyperuricemia.
