[0061] Example 2 Composition Analysis of Pumpkin Seed Extract.

[0062] The general pumpkin seed extract extracted according to the steps (2)-(4) of Example 1 without germination treatment and / or plasma treatment was used as the component control group. Take the pumpkin seed extract described in Example 1 or the above-mentioned general pumpkin seed extract, dissolve it in distilled water, and filter it with a filter with a pore size of 0.45 μM to obtain an extract back solution. γ-Aminobutyric acid (γ-Aminobutyric acid, GABA) and tryptophan (Tryptophan) content analysis system uses the method published by Pereira et al. in 2008, after it is moderately modified; Dissolve M GABA in water to prepare GABA standard dilution, or dissolve 0.05M tryptophan in 2.5% KH 2 PO 4 prepared as a tryptophan standard dilution; take 100 μL of the aforementioned extract back into the solution or add 100 μL of the standard dilution to 100 μL of potassium borate solution, and then add 25 μL of o-...

Embodiment 3

[0066] Example 3 Anxiolytic efficacy experiment of pumpkin seed extract.

[0067] The arm-raised plus maze test was used to evaluate the anxiolytic efficacy. The arm-raised plus maze consists of two open arms of 30cm×5cm, two closed arms of 30cm×5cm×15 cm, a 5cm×5cm open square in the middle to connect the arms and feet 50 cm high from the ground composed of racks.

[0068]Experimental procedure: the mice in the experimental group were fed germinated pumpkin seed extract or plasma germinated pumpkin seed extract orally, and the dosage was as described above; the positive control group was orally given 1.5 mg / kg of dinitrogen to the mice flat. After feeding for 60 minutes, the mice were placed in the middle of the cross-arm maze square, one at a time, and measured for 5 minutes, and the cross-arm maze was wiped clean after each mouse was measured.

[0069] Evaluation method of anti-anxiety ability: The time and times that the mice stay in the open arm and the closed arm are ...
