In this study, we established the pre-treatment conditions that could increase the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content during barley germination. In the process, three different barley samples were prepared, which differed in the pre-treatedment processes. The specimens were stored at 50 for 1 h after being kept in water at room temperature for 4 h (HKW sample), kept in sufficient water for 4 h (KW sample), or left untreated (CO sample). After the pre-treatment, the barely samples were germinated for 35 h. A sample was taken from each batch in 5-h intervals, extracted with water, and physicochemical characteristics and radical scavenging activity were measured. As a result, we found that the contents of phenolic compounds (18.02-30.63 mg/100 g) and flavonoids (1.87-4.63 mg/100 g) were higher in HKW, showing similar trends. Also the GABA contents in the HKW and KW samples were higher than that in the CO sample. Furthermore, the radical scavenging activities of DPPH and ABTS were the highest in the HKW sample, having values in the ranges of 58.49-77.40% and 54.57-88.10%, respectively. All in all, we found that in order to increase the antioxidative activity and GABA content of the barley samples, it would be suitable to pre-treatment the specimens after the post-immersion heat treatment. In addition, pre-treating the KW samples is appropriate only after immersion time. Lastly, the optimum germination time of the batches was found to be 20-25 h.

This study was performed in order to determine the effect of roasting (160 for 0, 30, 60, 90 min) on the physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity of hot water extracts of dried Liriope platyphylla. With respect to Hunter’s color value, lightness and yellowness decreased roasting time increased. The difference (ΔE value) in lightness, redness and yellowness was 15.88 and 22.94 for 30 and 60 min. The 30 min roasted sample contained more soluble solid content (12.7 °Brix) than other samples. The pH and acidity of the 60 min roasted sample were 5.06 and 0.14%, respectively. The highest contents in reducing sugar and total phenolic compounds contents was obserned in the 60 min roasted sample (17.68, and 35.01 g/100 g, respectively), and flavonoid content was the highest in the 90 min roasted sample (10.53 mg/100 g). The crude saponin content of the 90 min roasted sample (21.90 mg/100 g) was higher than that of others samples (8.0-15.36 mg/100 g). Moreover, ginsenosides such as Re, Rg3, and Rh2, were detected, among which the Rh2 content was the highest. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (31.64-53.72%), 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)- 6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity (61.59-96.71%), and the ferric reducing antioxidant power (72.38-183.11%) were higher in the roasted samples than in the control group. As a result, we confirmed that roasting increased the amount of active compounds, which increased the yield of useful extract.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of yogurt dressing prepared with different amounts (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) of black currant (Ribes nigrum L) extract. All samples were evaluated for chemical composition, pH, viscosity, sugar content, color, organic acid content and antioxidant activity. Our findings revealed that with increasing amounts of black currant extract in yogurt dressing, the moisture, crude protein and crude lipid contents decreased. The pH and viscosity gradually decreased, whereas the sugar increased with increase in black currant extract. Further, the lightness (L) value decreased, while the redness (a) and yellowness (b) values increased with increase in added black currant extract. Among the organic acids, the contents of citric acid, malic acid, succinic acid and acetic acid increased, while that of tartaric acid and lactic acid decreased with increasing levels of added black currant extract. The total polyphenol and total anthocyanin contents were 5.90-245.97 mg/100 g and 0.62-190.09 mg/100 g, respectively. In addition, the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis(3-thylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities significantly increased with increase in added black currant extract.

Persimmon seeds contain considerable amounts of minerals, amino and organic acids, natural antioxidants and phenolic compounds. The objective of this study was to investigate quality characteristics and antioxidant potential of Korean persimmon seeds. The pH (4.88-4.94), color values, contents of minerals, free amino acids, organic acids, and phenolic compounds and DPPH free radical scavenging potentials of persimmon seed extracts significantly (p < 0.05) varied with the genotypes. This study showed that the seeds could be used as a source of different mineral elements (47.14-85.07 ㎎/㎏) without any measureable amount of heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury. Similarly, considerable amounts of organic (1550.13-2413.08 ㎎/㎏) and essential amino (50.85-54.03 ㎎/㎏) acids and total phenolic compounds (1227.91-1307.78 ㎍ gallic acid equivalent/g) were also found in the seed extracts, indicating their potential food value as a natural antioxidant. Results of the present study imply that prethanol-A, a food preservative, can be used as an effective extraction to obtain the minerals, organic and free amino acids, and phenolic compounds from the persimmon seeds, which possess a big potential to be commercially used in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics, polyphenolic compounds, and radical scavenging activity of cooked-rice added to commercially available mixed grains. L-value of cooked-rice with various mixed grains decreased compared to that of cooked-white rice; however, a- and b-values increased. Hardness and elasticity of cooked-rice added to various mixed grains were significantly lower in the pressure cooker compared to the electric cooker. There was no significant difference in adhesiveness and stickiness between rice from the electric cooker and pressure cooker. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of cooked-rice added to various mixed grains were significantly increased. The average total polyphenol content of cooked-rice added to various mixed grains cooked in an electric cooker and pressure cooker were 16.50 ± 3.86 and 15.88 ± 3.52 mg gallic acid equivalent /100 g, and flavonoid contents were 1.58 ± 0.00 and 1.55 ± 0.02 mg catechin equivalents/100 g, respectively. The average of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity was 9.27 ± 2.62 and 8.72 ± 2.41 mg trolox equivalent (TE)/100 g, and 2,2’-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging activity was 22.89 ± 4.60 and 23.07 ± 4.49 mg TE/100 g for cooked-rice added to various mixed grains cooked in an electric cooker and pressure cooker, respectively. Phenol content and radical scavenging activity of cooked rice was in proportion to the amount of added grains, such as brown rice, colored rice, barley, soybean, and sorghum.

With the goal of developing a new functional fermentation milk using green tea powder (GP), milk was fermented with direct vat set (DVS) starter culture containing Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei and L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus. We investigated fermentation characteristics and antioxidative activities of fermented milk supplemented with different concentrations (0.5, 1, 2, 3%) of GP. All samples were evaluated for pH, total acidity, viable cell count, and sugar contents. The pH of all samples decreased during fermentation, and the final pH ranged from 4.35 to 4.51. The acidity increased during fermentation, after the fermentation was completed, the titratable acidity was 0.8 to 1.1%. And viable cell count of all samples increased during fermentation, and the final viable cell count was 8.57 to 8.89 log CFU/mL. The sugar content decreased as the fermentation proceeded and finally reached 12 to 13 ˚Brix. And increasing GP, decreased brightness and increased yellowness. Increasing GP concentration added to milk, improved DPPH free radical scavenging activity and ferric ion reducing activity of fermentation milk. The fermentation milk kept their pH, total acidity and viable cell counts standard of fermentation milk during the storage period at 4℃. These findings confirmed the possibility of development of the novel functional fermentation milk through the investigation of the quality characteristics of the fermentation milk added with GP.

Hovenia dulcis fruit powder (HFP) has shown diverse functional activities; thus, it is rational to incorporate HFP into suitable food products with enhanced nutritional and functional quality, and their incorporation into bakery products such as cookies could be a good alternative for the increase of consumption. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of HFP addition on the quality characteristics of cookies. The pH of cookie doughs ranged from 5.80-6.34, with no remarkable differences by HFP addition. Density of cookie doughs significantly decreased upon addition of HFP (p<0.05), but there were no significant differences among samples added with HFP (p>0.05). Moisture content and spread factor of cookies significantly increased with higher content of HFP in the formulation (p<0.05). For color values of cookie surface, L* and b*-values decreased while a*-value increased as a result of HFP substitution (p<0.05). 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6- sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activities were significantly increased (p<0.05) with higher substitution of HFP, showing a positive correlation. Hedonic sensory results indicated that cookies supplemented with 4% HFP received the most favorable acceptance scores for sensory attributes. Overall, HFP-added cookies could be developed with improved physicochemical qualities without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Lentinus edodes powder on the quality characteristics and antioxidant of rice cookies. The cookies for this experiment was made by 3 main ingredients including rice powder, flour, Lentinus edodes powder. The proportion of rice powder was fixed to 50% for the total amount of ingredients. The amount of reminded 2 ingredients (flour and Lentinus edodes powder) were varied. The amount of flour was decreased up to 38%, and the addition of Lentinus edodes powder was increased to 4%, 8% and 12%. Density of the dough, hardness, total polyphenol content, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, and reducing power increased with increasing Lentinus edodes powder content. Moisture content, pH of the dough, spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, and L values of the cookies were decreased with increasing Lentinus edodes powder content. The result of consumer acceptance test revealed that there were no significant differences in smell, taste and overall acceptability, while the preference of color decreased as the amount of Lentinus edodes powder increased. To sum up, the cookies with 12% Lentinus edodes powder can produced the best results in terms of quality and antioxidant potential.

This study was carried out to compare the cooking and antioxidant characteristics of rice containing varying amounts of glutinous rice and cooked by two methods. Rice containing glutinous rice was cooked by general and high-pressure cooking methods with and without fermented alcohol. Pasting characteristics of cooked rice were decreased with increasing amounts of glutinous rice. The water binding capacity and swelling power were significantly decreased with increasing amounts of glutinous rice; however, water solubility indices were significantly increased. Palatability characteristics of cooked rice containing glutinous rice were similar to those of cooked rice without glutinous rice. Total polyphenol contents of cooked rice containing glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were quite different, but this difference was not significant. Total flavonoid contents were increased with increasing amounts of glutinous rice. Total flavonoid content by general cooking method for rice containing 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol was 23.20 ± 0.61 μg CE/g. DPPH radical-scavenging activities for samples with and without glutinous rice were 2.97–5.19 and 3.19–5.45 mg TE/100 g, respectively. ABTS radical-scavenging activity by high-pressure cooking method for rice containing 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol was 19.48 ± 0.63 mg TE/100 g. In this study, cooking and antioxidant characteristics of cooked rice containing glutinous rice generated data useful for manufacturing processed products.

Background : The effects of heat treatments on the phycochemical charateristics and antioxidant activities of ginkgo nuts were investigated by roasting at various temperatures (150, 180, and 210℃) for 60 min. Methods and Results : For each roasting temperatures, pH, total acidity, chromaticity, total cyanide content, reducing power, total polyphenol content, 2,2’-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities were compared and analyzed. As the roasting temperature and time increased, the pH and total cyanide content decreased from 7.32 to 6.31 and from 697 to 282 ㎍/㎎, respectively, while total acidity increased from 0.40 to 0.84%. There was an 11 or more color difference (ΔE) between the non-heated ginkgo nut and heated ginkgo nuts, indicating a remarkable color difference. The antioxidant activities, including reducing power, total polyphenol content, and DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities increased rapidly at 210℃ according to increasing in roasting temperature and time. Conclusion : These results suggest that the ginkgo nut with heat treatment could be used in food materials and medicines for decreasing cyanide content as well as for increasing antioxidant compound content.

본 연구는 최근 항산화활성이 우수하다고 알려지면서 재배면적이 증가하고 있는 아로니아의 소비촉진을 위해 아로니아에 사과를 부재료로 첨가하여 떫은맛은 감소되고 기호도가 향상이 된 아로니아 혼합잼을 다양하게 제조한 후, 그 품질특성을 조사하고자 하였다. 100% 아로니아 잼을 비롯한 90%, 70%, 그리고 50% 아로니아 잼을 제조한 뒤 4가지 잼의 품질을 조사한 결과, 아로니아의 함량이 증가할 수록 pH는 감소하였고, 총산은 증가하였다. 색도는 아로니 아 함량이 감소할수록 명도는 증가하였고, 적색도와 황색 도는 아로니아 함량이 감소하여도 큰 변화를 보이지 않았 다. 조직감에서 견고성과 탄력성, 점성, 씹힘성은 아로니아 함량이 100%일 때 가장 높았다. 총 폴리페놀과 전자공여능 은 아로니아의 함량이 줄어들수록 감소하는 경향을 보였 다. 관능평가에서 색상과 향미, 신맛은 아로니아 함량이 증가하여도 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 빵 발림성과 단맛은 아로니아 함량이 감소할수록 증가하였다. 전반적인 기호도는 아로니아 함량이 70%일 때 가장 선호도가 높았 다. 따라서 생리활성, 관능적인 면을 고려했을 때 70% 아로 니아와 30% 사과를 첨가한 아로니아 혼합잼의 경우 현재 한정된 범위의 가공식품의 재료로 쓰이고 있는 아로니아의 이용성을 증진시킬 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

배의 가공 활용을 위해 숙기가 다른 원황, 신고 및 추황배 를 이용하여 식초를 제조하여 이화학적 특성 및 항산화활성 을 조사하였다. 숙기가 다른 배의 특성 조사 결과 경도는 숙기가 가까운 원황은 낮았고 미숙과인 신고, 추황배는 높 았으며, 당도는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 품종별 배식초의 품질 특성을 조사한 결과 총 산 함량은 4.89~7.98%로 추황 배가 가장 높았고, 색도 L* 값은 원황 신고 추황배를 이용하 여 제조한 식초의 색도 L* 값은 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았고, 적색도 a* 값은 원황 배를 이용하여 제조한 식초가 가장 높았으며, 황색도 b* 값은 신고배를 이용하여 제조한 식초가 가장 높은 값을 나타내었다. 주요 유리당은 glucose, fructose, sorbitol로 품종에 관계없이 sorbitol의 함량이 가장 높았다. 총 폴리페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량은 35.2~55.3, 8.4~14.4 mg/100 g으로 추황배를 이용하여 제조한 식초가 높았고, 원황, 신고를 이용하여 제조한 식초가 낮았다. 항산 화 활성은 총페놀과 정의 상관을 보였으며, DPPH 라디컬 소거능은 세가지 품종 배를 이용하여 제조한 식가 45.0~ 62.1%였고, ABTS+ radical 소거능은 73.8~78.2%를 나타내 었다. 이상의 결과로부터 낙과나 비 상품과인 원황, 신고 및 추황배를 사용하여 기호성을 갖춘 식초를 제조할 수 있는 것으로 판단되어 이에 대한 관능적 특성 및 대규모 생산에 대한 추후 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
