The viscosity, overrun, melting-down, moisture, crude fat, total sugar, and color of rice powder and puffed rice powder ice cream, following the addition of α-amylase, were investigated. For identical grain types, the gelatinization degree increased with puffing, and within the same treatment, the short grain was higher than the long grain. Viscosity dropped with increasing α-amylase at the same concentration and grain type, excluding 0.0%, the rice powder was higher than the puffed one, and for the same concentration and treatment, the short grain was higher. The overrun was highest at 0.2%, and for the same concentration and treatment, the short grain exhibited higher overrun. Higher melting-down was observed in puffed and lower viscosity ice cream mix. No significant difference was found in moisture with enzyme concentration. Regardless of puffing, the short tended to have a higher moisture. No difference was noticed in crude fat by concentration, grain type, or puffing. The total sugar was higher with increasing α-amylase; at the same concentration, puffed tended to be higher. The hunter “L” and “b” increased with α-amylase, while the “a” value dropped. At the same concentration and grain type, the “b” values decreased with puffing (p<0.05).
메밀(신농 1호)을 10℃에서 7일간 발아시켜, 24시간마다 시료를 채취하여 α-amylase와 유리당의 변화를 관찰, 비교한 결과는 다음과 같다. α-Amylase 활성도는 발아 전 1.66 U에서 발아 1일에 3.95 U로 급격히 증가하였고, 3일째에 1.09 U의 최저 활성을 나타내었으며, 4일째부터 다시 급격히 증가하여 발아 7일에는 9.18 U의 활성도를 나타내었다. 유리당 함량은 건량기준으로 발아 전에 maltose 1.81 ㎎%, fructose 0.42 ㎎%, glucose 7.71 ㎎%, rhamnose 6.80㎎%였다. 발아중 메밀의 유리당 함량변화에 있어서 maltose는 발아초기에 감소하기 시작하여 3일째에 최저치를 나타내었고 4일째부터 뚜렷하게 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으매, fructose는 발아 2일째까지 감소하다가 3일째부터 서서히 증가하였다.

The objective of this study was determined to evaluate α-amylase, α-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase inhibition in vitro and DPPH radical scavenging activity of the several Korean resources plants. The α-amylase inhibitory activity of Salicornia herbacea, Erythronium japonicum (flower) and Phragmites communis (root) in water extract showed relatively high 62.8%, 66.5% and 69.3%, respectively. The α-amylase inhibitory activity of Citrus junos (pericarp) and Cornus officinalis in methanol extract was found to have an effect with 32.8% in Citrus junos (pericarp) and 60.9% in Cornus officinalis. Corylopsis coreana in both water and methanol extract had the highest α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 81.7% and 89.5%, while the extract of Portulaca oleracea, Ficus carica and Citrus junos was not measured α-glucosidase inhibitory activity at given experiment concentration. Depending on the extraction solvent and the plant species, it was observed that there was a significant difference in α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity showed relatively higher in the methanol extract than water extract except pericarp of Citrus junos. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of selected plants was much difference between measured plant species, and showed that the increase was proportional to the concentration. These results suggested that selected plants had the potent biological activity on carbohydrate, lipid Inhibitory activity and antioxidant activity, therefore these plant resources could be a good materials to develop medicinal preparations, nutraceuticals or health functional foods for diabetes or obesity.

To develop anti-acidosis and anti-diabetes agentsfrom natural products, the inhibitory activities of Brazilian plant extracts against microbial -amylase and -glucosidase were evaluated. Among 100 different ethanol extracts tested, those of Acacia jurema Mart., Anacardium humile A. St.-Hil., Cedrela odorata L., and Guazuma ulmifolia Lam showed good inhibitoryactivities toward both enzymes. In addition, an extract of Plumeria drastica Mart. showed specific inhibition of -amylase, whereas that of Eugenia uniflora L. demonstrated strong inhibition of the enzyme. IC50 values of -amylase inhibition suggested that the extract of A. humile A. St.-Hil., which has been used as an anti-diabetes medicine in Brazil, had potent inhibitory activity. The IC50 for the A. humile A. St.-Hil. extract () was similar to that of acarbose (). This activity of A. humile A. St.-Hil. was not reduced by heat or acid treatment. Moreover, treatment with HCl (0.01 M) for 1 h increased the inhibitory activity from 57.5% to 81.2%. Also, the extract did not cause hemolysis of human red blood cells at levels up to 1 mg/mL. The results indicate that the extract of A. humile A. St.-Hil. is potentially useful as an anti-acidosis and anti-diabetes agent.
Compounds of isolated from roots extract of Pueraria thunbergiana were tested their inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase and α-amylase. Inhibitory activity of methylene chloride (MC) fraction and ethyl acetate (EA) fraction against α-glucosidase showed more than 60% at a concentration of 500μg/ml. Among the nine compounds tested on α-glucosidase, biochanin A, (-)-tuberosin and calycosin from MC fraction and daidzein from EA fraction were stronger inhibitors than acarbose (IC50=530μg/ml), and their IC50 were 9, 144, 328 and 20μg/ml, respectively. Biochanin A and (-)-tuberosin also inhibited α-amylase activity as like as acarbose IC50=20.5μg/ml), and their IC50 were 22 and 348μg/ml, respectively. Although daidzein was already known α-glucosidase inhibitory effects, it was newly evaluated that biochanin A and (-)-tuberosin inhibited α-glucosidase as well as α-amylase, and that calycosin did α-glucosidase.
제주도에 자생하는 피자식물 289종 454점을 대상으로 항산화활성과 α-amylase 저해활성을 검색하였다. DPPH radical에 대한 전자공여능으로 측정한 항산화활성은 붉나무의 오배자, 굴피나무의 열매, 참죽나무의 줄기 메탄올 조추출물에서 높은 활성을 보였다. 특히, 붉나무의 오배자의 항산화활성은 94.2±0.8%로 본 실험에 동일 농도의 대조구로 사용된 BHA(61.7±0.6%)와 ascorbic acid(53.6±0.7%) 보다도 활성이 높았다. 그리고 붉나무, 굴피나무, 참죽나무 이외의 나머지 52점의 식물들도 차나무 잎의 활성보다 높았다. α-Amylase 저해활성은 곰의말채의 줄기와 잎, 조록나무의 잎과 소지, 정금나무의 잎 등 9종 11점에서 80% 이상의 높은 활성을 보였다. 앞으로 식품 소재 또는 생약으로의 개발 가능성을 모색하기 위해서 활성성분의 분리 및 동정 그리고 이들 물질을 이용한 임상실험 등 보다 심도있는 연구가 요구된다.

This study was carried out to investigate inhibitory effect of extracts from Artemisia capillaris Thumb. on maltase, sucrase, α-amylase, nonspecific α-glucosidase, and postprandial hyperglycemia. Methanol extract and organic solvent (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, aqueous) fractions from the medicinal herb were determined for the inhibitory activities against maltase, sucrase and α-amylase. The methanol extract from A. capillaris strongly inhibited maltase (57%) and α-glucosidase (72%) at the concentration of 100 μg/ml. Among the four fractions (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, aqueous) examined, the butanol fraction from A. capillaris showed potent inhibitory effects on maltase (73%), sucrase (33%), and α-amylase (75%) at the concentration of 100 μg/ml. The butanol fraction from Artemisia capillaris also exhibited significant reductions (20%) of blood glucose elevation in mice loaded with maltose. These results suggest that the extract from Artemisia capillaris can be used as a new nutraceutical for inhibition on postprandial hyperglycemia
Effects of dimethipin on α-amylase activity of barley seeds were investigated. In the treatments of 1 μM and 10 μM dimethipin, the indexes of germination were reduced to 17% and 24 % respectively. After seed germination, dimethipin was added to germinated seedlings and then the seedlings were kept to measure seedling length under illumination for 7 days. In control, the length of seedling was 5.7 cm, but in the treatments of 1 μM dimethipin and 10 μM dimethipin, seedling lengths were 5.5 cm and 1.2 cm respectively. In the relationship between dimethipin concentrations and α-amylase activities, there was a linear curve. The more dimethipin was added to the seeds, the more α-amylase activities were inhibited. In the treatments of 1 μM dimethipin and 10 μM dimethipin, α-amylase activities were reduced to 33% and 71% respectively. Dimethipin also inhibited α-amylase activities increased by gibberellin and the content of soluble protein. Therefore, it could be suggested that dimethipin might inhibit directly the activities of hydrolysis enzymes including α-amylase or the expression of α-amylase genes as germination and seedling growth were severely disturbed.

Starch was crosslinked with epichlorohydrin. Crosslinked starch-filled waterborne acrylate (CSWAC) films were prepared by blending this crosslinked starch with waterborne acrylate. The thermal and mechanical properties of these films were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), tensile strength and elongation test. The biodegradability was also studied by determination of reduced sugar products after enzymatic hydrolysis and the surface morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
The CSWAC film showed significantly higher tensile strength and elongation than those of starch-filled waterbonre acrylate (SWAC). The biodegradability of this film was higher than that of native starch-filled acrylate film, and was increased by the addition of crosslinked starch to the acrylate film.
The biodegradability of vinyl acetate acrylate resin and corn starch blend was studied by determination of the reduced sugars produced after enzymatic hydrolysis. The starch hydrolysis reaction by α-amylase was achieved within 5 minutes. Optimal ranges of temperature and pH for the starch hydrolysis by α-amylase were around 80 oC and 6.5-7.2, respectively.
The biodegradability of the starch-filled acrylate films increased as the content of starch increased. The biodegradation of starch in the starch-filled acrylate film by α-amylase was about 48.6% of that of pure starch. This value of biodegradable starch-filled acrylate film gave a good result with enzymatic shortcut test. The surface morphologies of the starch-filled acrylate film after enzymatic hydrolysis were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
Osmoconditioning and hardening effects for the seed germination of normal and naturally aged rice seeds were studied through analyzing the total sugars and α -amylase activity. The normal seeds which used to have high germination rate accelerated germination with the osmoconditioning at the suboptimal temperature of 17~circC . On the other hand, the aged seeds did not affect germination rate at 25~circC , while increased germination rate and accelerated germination a little at 17~circC , Hardening of aged seeds increased germination rate by 10-15% compared with control seeds at both 17 and 25~circC and accelerated germination. Total sugar content and α -amylase activity of normal seeds were higher than did aged seeds. The aged seeds with treatment of osmoconditioning and hardening increased total sugar content and α --amylase activity, but hardening was more effective than osmoconditioning. The α --amylase activity was positively correlated with the total sugar content and germination rate.
