The extracts of four species of ectomycorrhizal mushrooms—Cantharellus cinnabarinus (OK1247), Lactarius parallelus (OK1264), Tricholoma matsutake (OK1282), and Ramaria botrytis (OK1283)—were prepared to determine their antioxidant activities and nutritional properties. R. botrytis extract displayed the highest 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity (33.8%), ferric reducing antioxidant power (0.38), reducing power (0.35), total polyphenol (13.83 mg gallic acid equivalent/g), and flavonoid contents (2.56 mg quercetin equivalent/g). L. parallelus extract displayed the highest nitrite scavenging activity. Analysis of amino acid contents revealed that C. cinnabarinus extract had the highest total amino acid (1,046.1 mg/kg) and essential amino acid (404.9 mg/kg) contents, while R. botrytis extract had the lowest total amino acid (708.3 mg/kg) and essential amino acid (247.3 mg/kg) contents. Among the amino acid components detected in the four ectomycorrhizal mushrooms, cysteine was the most abundant, accounting for 14.3~20.7%, followed by phenylalanine, which accounted for 9.5 ~13.4% of all amino acids. In summary, the antioxidant activities were the highest in R. botrytis extract, and the amino acid content was the highest in C. cinnabarinus extract, among the four ectomycorrhizal mushrooms.

The creation of probiotic-containing fermented milk products for use by human is an important research topic and has high potential for development. Also, studies have shown that heat-killed probiotics are more stable and easier to use than live probiotics. However, as of this time, research has not been reported in Korea that has evaluated the product or functionality of fermented milk after the addition of heat-killed probiotics. This study was conducted to verify the physiological activity of heat-killed Enterococcus faecalis EF-2001 after its addition to Lactobacillus-fermented milk. Briefly, NFM normal fermented milk (NFM) was used as the control sample, whereas fermented milk with 100 μg/mL EF-2001 (EFM1) and fermented milk with 500 μg/mL EF-2001 (EFM2) were used as the treated samples. Among the samples, EFM2 had the highest acidity of 1.15, but no other factors significantly differed (p<0.05). Furthermore, EFM2 had the highest Lactobacillus count of 9.22 (p<0.05). ABTS, DPPH and FRAP were measured to determine the antioxidant activity of the samples. With respect to those parameters, EFM2 had the highest antioxidant measurements. Therefore, the study confirmed that the addition of E. faecalis EF-2001 to NFM is suitable with the standard and does not affect the quality of characteristics. In conclusion, the treatment sample had higher antioxidant activity than did NFM; this result may be used as a basic for further research and as a guideline for the manufacturing of heat-killed probiotic-containing NFM.

In this study, polyphenol and flavonoid contents were measured, and DPPH, OH, H2O2 radical scavenging activity, and the α-amylase inhibitory activity were measured to study the antioxidant activity of 70% ethanol extract from Morinda citrifolia L. The polyphenol and flavonoid contents of noni 70% ethanol extract were 29.52 GAE/g and 12.48 CE/g, respectively. Also, the IC50 values of DPPH, hydroxyl radical, and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity of 70% ethanol extract from noni were 18.70 mg/mL, 26.45 mg/mL, and 35.67 mg/mL, respectively. Measurement of the α-amylase inhibitory activity of 70% ethanol extract from noni showed 45% inhibitory activity at 10 mg/mL.

To increase the functional material content of soybean, a repetitive steaming and drying process was used. We investigated the changes in the total polyphenol content, the antioxidant activity, and the angiotensin-Ⅰ converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition in soybean following nine rounds of steaming and drying. Soybean was steamed 9 times for 2 h and then dried 9 times from 55℃ to 73℃ for 3 h. The total polyphenol content in the soybean reached a maximum value of 60.47 mg GAE eq./100 g at 73℃ while the total polyphenol content in the raw soybean reached 25.17 mg GAE eq./100 g. In the raw soybean samples, the DPPH radical scavenging activity (5 mg/mL) was 8.04% but it increased by 43.29% after drying 9 times to 73℃. ABTS radical scavenging activity also improved following 9 rounds of steaming and drying. ACE inhibitory activity of the soybean dried 9 times at 73℃ was 58.94% at 10 mg/mL. These results showed that steaming and drying soybean 9 times enhanced the antioxidant activity and the ACE inhibitory activity of soybean. Therefore, more research on the biological and anti-hypertensive activity of soybean using this steaming and drying method is necessary.

This study investigated the antioxidant properties of the Radix isatidis extract and the effect of substituting it with sodium nitrite (SN) in a pork patty. The antioxidant activity of the Radix isatidis water extract (RIWE) was compared to those of the methanol and chloroform extracts (RIME and RICE, respectively). Patties were prepared with five different treatments: (1) a control with no RIWE and SN, (2) T1 with 150 ppm SN, (3) T2 with 100 ppm SN + 0.1% RIWE, (4) T3 with 50 ppm SN + 0.3% RIWE, and (5) T4 with 0.5% RIWE. They were used to compare the oxidation stability for 12 days at 4℃. The extraction yield of RIWE was 3.2 and 18.7 times higher (p<0.05) than those of RIME and RICE, respectively, but RIWE had the lowest (p<0.05) 1,1`-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, superoxide dismutase-like activity, and total reducing ability. Patties with RIWE and SN exhibited lower (p<0.05) pH values after 12 days, compared to the control. After 4 days, the 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances content was lower (p<0.05) in T1, T2, T3, and T4 than in the control. The oxidation-reduction potential value was the lowest (p<0.05) in T3 and T4 after 4 days (p<0.05). T1, T2, T3, and T4 had a lower (p<0.05) volatile basic nitrogen content after 12 days, compared to the control. These findings suggest that RIWE has an antioxidant effect similar to that of SN, but further research on its antimicrobial effect may be required to determine if it is a good substitute for SN.

The antioxidant, physicochemical, and sensory properties of muffins using fermented Curcuma longa L. were investigated. Sensory properties of the samples were examined, and the correlation between the physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory properties was studied. The pH of the samples was pH 7.26-7.42, which was the optimal pH range for the air formation of the dough, color, or volume. The antioxidant activities of the sample group were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). In the sensory intensities, the 1.0 and 1.5%-added sample groups showed a similar savory aroma, sweet aroma, savory taste, sweet taste, and texture to those of the control. Samples containing 1.0 and 1.5% showed similar overall acceptance values to the control. The muffin containing 1.0 or 1.5% fermented Curcuma longa L. powder was developed successfully, and it was concluded that the developed muffin with the fermented turmeric powder could be a highly valued product in the increasingly competitive muffin food industry.

In this study, fingerroot (Boesenbergia pandurata) and ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) were extracted with water, 70% and 100% ethanol, respectively.

With respect to the polyphenol compound content, both fingerroot and ginger extract showed the highest in 70% ethanol extract, and the fingerroot extract showed a generally higher content than the ginger extract. The content of flavonoids, fingerroot and ginger extracts showed values of 1,247.14~1,259.93 μg%, and there was no big difference between extracts. The content of ascorbic acid was the highest in 100% ethanol extract in both fingerroot and ginger. Fingerroot extract was slightly higher than ginger extract in all extracts. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of fingerroot and ginger extracts showed the highest antioxidant activity in 100% ethanol extract, and fingerroot showed a slightly higher activity than ginger. The ABTS radical scavenging activity was high in 70% and 100% ethanol extracts of both fingerroot and ginger. In the activity between fingerroot and ginger extracts, ginger was higher in water extract and fingerroot was slightly higher in ethanol extract. Fingerroot and ginger extracts showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus.

Herb soy sauce was prepared by extracting rosemary, lemon balm, spearmint and peppermint at a low temperature in fresh soy sauce. The antioxidant and physicochemical properties of herb soy sauces were examined. Herb soy sauces were prepared by adding 2.5% (w/v) of herbs to fresh soy sauce at 60℃. The total polyphenol, DPPH%, ABTS% increased with extracting time but five minutes extraction with sufficient antioxidant herb soy sauce could be prepared. The antioxidant powers of herb soy sauces were higher in lemon balm extract, and the rosemary extract showed the lowest. Soy sauces added with herbs had lower pH and salinity (p<0.05) and higher sugar content than without herbs. The colorness according to the type of herbs showed significant difference.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity and β-glucan content of extracts extracted by varying the temperature at 30, 55 and 80℃ after hot air drying or freeze drying of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus eryngii. For the analysis antioxidant activity of each mushroom, β-glucan, total phenol, flavonoid contents, and DPPH․ABTS+․Nitrite assay were measured. Also, the β-glucan content, total flavonoid content and ABTS+ scavenging activity increased with freeze drying rather than hot air drying, and increased with increasing extraction temperature in both mushrooms. However, the total phenol and nitrite scavenging activity increased with hot air drying rather than freeze drying, and decreased with increasing temperature in both mushrooms. DPPH scavenging activity was not significant in both mushrooms, but decreased with increasing extraction temperature. Pearson’s correlations between total flavonoid content and antioxidant activities were r=0.719~0.753 (p<0.01). As a result, the β-glucan content, total flavonoid content, and ABTS radical cation scavenging activity were highest during freeze drying and extraction at 80℃. And the highest total phenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and nitrite scavenging activity were obtained during hot air drying and extraction at 30℃.

This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant activities on hydropoic-cultured ginseng roots (HGR) and leaves (HGL). The samples were lyophilized, extracted with 80% ethanol, and then evaluated the antioxidant activities compare with conventional- cultured ginseng. Total polyphenol content of ginseng, HGR, and HGL were 128.85±0.41, 115.74±1.28, and 282.15±5.15 mg/g, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activity(IC50) was the highest value of 6.47±0.13 mg/mL in the HGL. The ABTS radical scavenging activity was the highest value of 29.37±0.37 mg AA eq/g in HGL, and ginseng and HGR were 10.23±0.49 and 8.18±0.37 mg AA eq/g, respectively. The reducing power of ginseng, HGR, and HGL were 0.56±0.01, 0.53±0.01, and 0.68±0.01, respectively. Chelating effect was the highest value of 92.65±3.42% in HGL. The results of this study suggest that antioxidant activities in hydropoic-cultured ginseng leaves could have significant health benefits.

RAW 264.7 대식세포에서의 세포 독성은 나타나지 않았으며 세포 내에서 ROS 생성량 은 농도 의존적으로 감소하는 억제효과를 확인하였다. 또한 구아바 잎 추출물의 항균력 분석에서는 피부상 재균인 S. aureus, E. coli, C. albicans, P. acnes 균주들에서 항균 활성이 확인되었으며, 각 균주에 대한 최소 저해 농도(MIC)는 대체로 0.25 - 1 mg/mL의 수준으로서 P. acnes ≃ S. aureus < E. coli < C. albican 순의 낮은 농도로 측정되었다. 이와 같은 결과를 통해 구아바 잎 추출물의 항산화 활성과 세포 내 ROS 생성 억제 효과, 피부에 염증을 유발하는 피부상재균에 대한 항균력이 확인됨에 따라 독성이나 부작 용이 없는 기능성 화장품 소재로써의 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

This research investigated the quality properties of yogurts added to barley (1, 2, and 3%) and tagatose or sucrose. After inoculation of S. thermophilus, pH, titratable acidity (TA), viscosity, and viable cell count were measured at 4 h intervals for 16 h and color value, antioxidant activity, and sensory evaluation were determined after fermentation in triplicate. In the case of yogurt containing only tagatose or sucrose, the pH was hardly decreased, but when 2-3% barley was added, the pH reached below 4.5 before 16 h. In addition, TA and viscosity tended to increase as barely was added. Viable cell count increased slowly in yogurt with tagatose, but rapidly increased when barley was added. As barley content increased, yellowness, redness, and antioxidant activity tended to increase, and significantly higher antioxidant activity in barley tagatose yogurt. Sour strength increased and significant difference in the sweetness was not observed when barley amount increased. Although there was no significant difference in overall acceptability, tagatose yogurt containing 3% barley scored the highest in preference. In conclusion, the fermentation rate of yogurt inhibited by the addition of tagatose is improved by the addition of barley, and the growth rate of lactic acid bacteria is considered to play a role.
