In this study, sulgidduk was prepared by addition of varying amount of black doraji extract and the physicochemical quality characteristics and antioxidant activities were investigated in order to explore the commercialization potential of sulgidduk supplemented with black doraji extract. The moisture content of sulgidduck supplemented with black doraji extract exhibited a significant decrease compared to the control. The pH of sulgidduck tended to decrease with increasing concentration of black doraji extract, and the reducing sugar content increased significantly from 0.33% to 3.51%. With an increase in the content of black doraji extract, a decrease in lightness (L*) and increase in redness (a*) was observed. A significant increase in the total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity) was observed with the addition of the black doraji extract. Consequently, it is proposed that black doraji extract can be used for recipe development and commercialization of various rice cakes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate effect of methanolic extracts of 10 kinds of wild vegetables cultivated in Gangwon province on antioxidant activity, acetylcholinesterase, and β-secretase inhibitory activities. Results showed that among the wild vegetables, Aralia elata(Miq.) Seem shoot extract exhibited the highest total phenol content (84.65±1.08 mg GAE/g) and total flavonoids content (70.77±0.55 mg RE/g), respectively. The antioxidant activity of wild vegetables extracts was measured by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assay. Aralia elata(Miq.) Seem shoot extracts had the highest DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity (90.16%, 40.18% at 2 mg/mL). As a result, Aralia elata(Miq.) Seem shoot extract was the most effective in terms of acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity (35.94% at 1 mg/mL). In the β-secretase activity assay, all 10 kinds wild vegetables extracts showed low inhibitory activity, and Aralia elata(Miq.) Seem shoot extract had highest inhibitory activity among the 10 wild vegetables extracts was 14.99%. Taken together, these results showed that Aralia elata(Miq.) Seem shoot extract has potential cognition improvement impact, suggesting that it may provide an effective strategy for improving cognition.

The purpose of this study was to determine the content of polyphenols and flavonoids, vitamin C, and antioxidant activity for the extract from the Deodeok sprout. To accomplish this, the Deodeok sprout whole (CLS-W), above ground part (leaf, stem, CLS-L), and root (CLS-R) were individually extracted using 70% ethanol. The highest levels of total polyphenols and total flavonoids were observed in the Deodeok sprout extract CLS-L2. Similarly, antioxidant activities resulting in radical scavenging activities increased significantly in the extract of CLS-L2. In conclusion, these results indicate that Deodeok sprouts can be used as a viable, new natural antioxidant source.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity and tyrosinase inhibitory activity of Codonopsis lanceolata 50% ethanol extract, and its solvent fractions (n-hexane, ethyl acetate (EA), n-butanol, water). The main components of the EA fraction were qualitatively analyzed using UPLC Q-ToF/MS. Additionally, a quantitative analysis was performed using UPLC. As a result, the total polyphenol content was 113.36 mg gallic acid/g in the EA fraction, which contained the largest amount of the C. lancolata solvent fractions. Also EA showed the highest antioxidant activity than other fractions. The IC50 of DPPH(2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity was 0.03 mg/mL and the IC50 of ABTS [2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate)] radical scavenging activity was 0.049 mg/mL. The EA fraction showed tyrosinase inhibitory activity than other fractions and especially inhibited monophenolase oxidase reaction higher than diphenolase oxidase reaction. The monophenolase oxidase inhibited 55% when the concentration of the EA fraction was 0.25 mg/mL. As a result of Q-ToF/MS analysis, it was confirmed that tangshenoside I and lobetyolin were the main components of EA fraction. Thus, these results suggest that C. lanceolata may be used as a potent source of cosmetic agents.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity by collecting four times on six samples of Jeonbuk regional soybean pastes (Doenjang) traditionally prepared for this study. The water content of samples decreased according to progress of the aging period and the water content of the fourth sample collected was 42.40~59.64% (p<0.05). The salinity of the fourth Doenjang samples was 11.80~18.60%. The amino-type nitrogen content was 122.67~540.33 mg% immediately after the preparation of Doenjang in the Jeonbuk region and the content of the fourth collection samples increased from 251.49 to 982.36 mg% (p<0.05). The isoflavone glycosides decreased but daidzein, genistein and glycitein, which are aglycones, increased during aging periods. The total polyphenol content of the fourth collected samples was 11.99~19.27 mg GAE/g (p<0.05). The DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity and FARP of the fourth Doenjang samples were 51.88~81.21%, 84.14~90.32%, and 1.08~3.11 mg Trolox/g, respectively. As a result of quality analysis on Doenjang, the superiority of traditional Doenjang has been proven by the increase of amino nitrogen content and antioxidant activity according to the aging period. However, factor analysis on quality differences of regional Doenjang should be conducted to ensure standardization and quality improvement.

Acidic soil significantly reduces crop productivity mainly due to aluminum (Al) toxicity. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) roots were exposed to aluminum stress (Al3 +) in calcium chloride (CaCl2) solution (pH4.5) and root growth, physiological and antioxidant enzyme responses were investigated. The root growth (length) was significantly inhibited after 48 h of aluminum stress imposition. Histochemical staining with hematoxylin indicated significant accumulation of aluminum in Al stress-treated root tissues. Histochemical assay were also performed to detect superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxidation, which were found to be more in root tissues treated with higher aluminum concentrations. The enzymatic activity of CAT, POD and GR in root tissues was slightly increased after Al stress treatment. The result suggests that Al stress alters root growth in alfalfa and induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and demonstrates that antioxidant enzymes involved in detoxification of Al-mediated oxidative stress.

DPPH에 의한 라디칼소거 활성은 추출물의 농도가 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으나 참나무톱밥을 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충에 비해 큰느타리버섯수확후배지를 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물의 DPPH 라디칼 소거능이 우수하였으며 32 mg/ml 이상의 농도에서는 두 시료 간의 유의적 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 참나무톱밥과 큰느타리버섯수확후배지를 각각 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물의 농도별 환원력도 추출물의 농도가 높을수록 환원력은 증가하였으나 시료 간의 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 참나무톱밥과 큰느타리버섯수확후배지를 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물의 ORAC 지수는 각각 66.55±0.99 uM TE/g과 76.32±0.48 uM TE/g로 참나무톱밥을 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물에 비해 큰느타 리버섯수확후배지를 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물의 ORAC 지수가 높게 나타났다. 참나무톱밥과 큰느타리 버섯수확후배지를 각각 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물을 각각 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 mg/ml의 농도로 처리하 였을 때 RAW 264.7 세포는 90% 이상의 생존율을 나타 내었으므로 참나무톱밥과 큰느타리버섯수확후배지를 각각 식이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 추출물은 RAW 264.7 세포에 독성을 나타내지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of the polysaccharide (GLP) obtained from the liquid cultured Ganoderma lucidum on the lipidperoxidation in a rat liver microsome and hepatotoxicity in the primary cultured rat hepatocytes. It is well known that the polysaccharide of Ganoderma lucidum exhibits hepatoprotective activity, antitumor activity etc., which many suggest a relationship to lipidperoxidation. The effect of GLP on CCl4- and galactosamineintoxicated cytotoxicity in the primary cultured rat hepatocytes were reduced the GPT value. In order to the estimate the effects of anti-lipidperoxidation of the polysaccharide, enzymatic and nonenzymatic reaction assays were performed, in vitro, in the rat liver microsome. An enzymatic lipidperoxidation reaction by ADP＋FeCl3＋NADPH and CCl4＋NADPH, GLP (1 mg/mL) inhibited 77.4% and 39.4%, respectively, and the nonenzymatic reaction displayed a 97.4% strongly inhibition. In the enzymatic and nonenzymatic inducers treated with GLP, the formation of malondialdehyde (MDA) progressively decreased by raising the GLP concentration. These results suggest that the anti-lipidperoxidation and radical scavenging activity of GLP may play an important part in the liver protection action.

This study assessed the quality characteristics of cookies made with different amounts (0, 5, 10, 15%) of black carrot powder. The density and pH value of cookie dough were constant for all groups. Compared to the control group, the moisture content was higher in groups containing the black carrot powder. Increasing the amount of black carrot powder resulted in decreased L-value but increased a-value. Furthermore, the hardness of cookies increased with increasing amounts of black carrot powder. The consumer acceptance test revealed that up to 15% black carrot powder addition was desirable. Total phenol content of the control group was 24.0 mg GAE/100 g, while black carrot powder groups ranged from 45.5 to 103.5 mg GAE/100 g. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was also augmented with increasing volumes of black carrot powder. Taken together, we recommend that cookies with 15% black carrot powder are desirable in terms of overall acceptability and antioxidant activity.

To investigate the effects of antioxidant activities and hair loss prevention of extracts from Platycodon grandiflorum, we’ve prepared chloroform (CF) and ethylacetate fractions (EA) extracted from P. grandiflorum. In the results of DPPH radical scavenging assay, the two fractions showed dose-dependent antioxidant activities. Furthermore, in the ABTS assay, the two fractions exhibited the inhibitory effect over 90% at 10, 50, 100, 200 mg/mL. To investigate the inflammation inhibitory effect, we used RAW264.7 cells, these extracts were inhibited inflammatory reaction by suppressing the production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in dose-dependent manner. In the assay of HaCaT cells’ proliferation, the 24 hr treatment of the extracts significantly accelerarted cell proliferation in the range of concentrations used. The two fractions inhibited the proliferation of Malssezia furfur, the bacteria induce the dandruff. Finally, the CF could significantly inhibit the DHT production at 1, 10, 50, 100 μg/mL, but EA showed the inhibitory effect at the concentration over 50 μg/mL. The overall results of this study suggest that the chloroform (CF) and ethylacetate fractions (EA) from P. grandiflorum could be a useful raw material for the hair loss prevention products.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality and antioxidant properties of three fermented sweet potato cultivars (Shinyulmi, Hogammi, and Shinjami) using lactic acid bacteria. During the fermentation, the pH was lowered and the titratable acidity increased. The viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria increased 8.44-9.62 log CFU/g. Organic acid content (especially lactic acid) of sweet potatoes increased by fermentation. Also, γ-Aminobutyric acid increased more than 8.6 times by fermentation in all samples. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of sweet potato, showed insignificant changes in all samples by fermentation. ABTS radical scavenging activity of all samples slightly decreased by fermentation, but not significantly. DPPH radical scavenging activity decreased slightly by fermentation except Shinyulmi. However, when compared with the varieties, Shinjami showed the highest activity. The reducing power of Shinjami decreased slightly by fermentation, but activity was the highest among all samples. Based on these results, most of the chemical properties and functionality of fermented sweet potato are retained after fermentation, although some antioxidant activity decreases. We suggest that three fermented sweet potato cultivars (Shinyulmi, Hogammi, and Shinjami) using lactic acid bacteria can be used in various applications because of their effective functional properties.

The major fatty acids were palmitic acid, octadecenoic acid and stearic acid. The palmitic acid was the highest at 31.22% of all fatty acids. The major minerals were identified as Ca, P, K, Mg and Na. The contents of vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin C and vitamin E in BJJ were 0.02±0.00 mg/100 g, 0.087±0.01 mg/100 g, 0.02±0.00 mg/100 g, 0.56±0.06 mg/100 g and 0.20±0.03 mg α-TE/100 g, respectively. As a result of the free amino acid analysis, total amino acid contents in BJJ were 2,801.21±115.38 mg/100 g. L-proline content was the highest (744.30±119.06 mg/100 g) in BJJ. BJJ extract inhibits reactive oxygen species production in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Also, BJJ extract exhibits a protective effect on oxidative stress in H2O2-induced human dermal fibroblast. These results indicate that BJJ comprises various valuable nutrients which can be used as functional food ingredients.

오늘날 양돈의 사양이 증가 함에 따라 부존사료 자원으로서 활용가치가 높은 물질에 항생제를 첨가 하지 않고 친환경적으로 제조된 가축용 사료를 개발하여, 기능성 친환경 돈육 및 가공품을 생산하는 것이 중요하다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 항암, 항염, 항산화 등 다양한 생리활성 물질이 다량 함유되어 있는 복분자(Rubus occidentalis, RO) 부산물을 양돈사료의 원료로 확립하고자 버크셔 돼지를 대상으로 복분자 발효사료(Rubus occidentalis fermented fodder, ROFF)의 혈액 내 영양 운반인자와 항산화 효능을 연구하기 위해 수행하였다. 시험구는 일반사료(대조구)에 ROFF를 0.3% 첨가하였고, 발효사료의 효능을 확인 하기 위해 각 체중에 따른 버크셔 거세돈 및 암퇘지에게 43~73일간 급여하여 효능을 확인 하였다. ROFF의 복합적인 효능은 혈액 생화학, 철분 및 항산화 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과 ROFF의 섭취로 인해 거세 자돈 및 육성돈, 암컷 자돈, 육성돈, 및 110-150 kg 암컷 비육돈 에서 total cholesterol (TC), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) 모두 감소하거나 HDL-C이 증가하는 경향으로 보아 영양생리학적으로 개선되는 경향을 확인하였다. 암컷 비육돈에서는 생화학적 수치가 모두 증가하는 경향으로 보아 임신 가능성이 있는 비육기의 경우 이러한 수치 향상으로 자돈의 생산을 위한 원활한 영양 공급이 예상되며, 건강한 자돈의 생산에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다. Transferrin (TFE) 함량은 거세돈에서는 변화가 크지 않았으며, 암컷 육성돈 및 110-150 kg 암컷 비육돈에서 ROFF 섭취로 인해 증가하는 경향이 나타남에 따라 ROFF가 철분 결핍으로 인한 부정적인 영향들을 최소화 할 수 있을 것이다. Glutathione peroxidase1 (GPx1)분석 결과 거세 비육 돈 및 110-150 kg 암컷 비육돈에서 ROFF의 섭취로 인해 GPx1 활성이 유의적이지는 않지만 크게 증 가한 것으로 보아 ROFF가 항산화능을 향상시키는 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 결과들을 종합할 때, ROFF의 급여가 전체적으로 시험 개체의 개선 효능에는 영향이 크지 않으나 RO의 함량을 고려 할 때 매우 긍정적인 원료사료 중 하나라 할 수 있으며, 특히 ROFF가 거세돈 보다는 암컷 버크셔의 영양 운 반 및 철분 함량 등에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
