Backgrounds : Pomelo (Citrus grandis Osbeck) is the kind of citrus fruit which is Dicotyledoneae belongs to Rutaceae and special product in Jeju island. According to the previous researches, coumarin, eliocitrin, naringin are identified and these kinds of constituents revealed to be effective as anticancer, antioxidant, and antidiabetic. Until recently, there are many investigations about its functional properties were reported, but investigation about biological activities depend on extraction conditions are not sufficient. Methods and Results : 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity was performed by the method of Blois with minor modification. After adding DPPH radical to each sample solutions, the mixtures were incubated in 30 minutes at aphotic place. Then, the degree of scavenging activity was recorded by microplate reader at 490 nm. The scavenging activity was expressed by RC50, which is the concentration of sample solution necessitated to scavenge 50% DPPH radical against negative control. For α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, the method using p-nitrophenyl-α-D-glucopyranoside (pNPG) was applied. To each samples, α-glucosidase and pNPG were mixed and incubated, consequently, Na2CO3 was added to terminate the reaction. Finally, absorbance was read at 450 nm. The same as DPPH radical scavenging activity, the inhibition was explicitly expressed by the amount of sample solution to inhibit 50% α-glucosidase, IC50. The 80% MeOH extract demonstrated the highest radical scavenging activity with 74.32±8.45 μg/ml. α-Glucosidase inhibitory activity was carried out to evaluate the inhibitory activity of sugar digestion and absorption and 60, 80% MeOH extract exhibited 416.35±11.07 μg/ml and 336.57±2.03 μg/ml, respectively. Conclusion : The DPPH radical scavenging and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity were evaluated in this study. The highest DPPH radical scavenging activity was seen in 80% Citrus grandis Osbeck MeOH extract, following 60% MeOH extract exhibited the second highest scavenging activity. Also, 80% MeOH extract showed 336.57±2.03 μg/ml, which was the highest α-glucosidase inhibition among all extracts.

Limonoid는 항바이러스 및 항균제로써의 치료적인 목적으로 널리 연구되고 있는 성분으로 감귤에서 풍부하게 존재한다. 그러나 성분 자체의 쓴맛으로 인하여 기호성이 저하되므로 이를 해결하는 노력이 필요하며 제품 개발이 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 쓴맛을 제거할 수 있는 훌륭한 효소로써 LUGT가 주목되고 있으며, 이에 효소의 특성화 연구를 위하여 분리 및 정제를 시도하였다. Plasmid vector인 pET30a(+)을 사용하여 대장균에서

본 연구에서는 당유자 원료의 세절방법과 당유자 정백당 혼합물의 냉동저장 기간 및 당유자청의 희석배수에 따른 당유자차의 관능적 평가를 실시하고 전반적인 기호도에 대해 조사하였다. 원료선별, 세척, 건조, 절단 및 씨앗제거 과정을 거친 당유자를 슬라이스 세절 후 당침하거나 믹서기로 갈고 과육과 과피를 혼합 당침한, 두 종류의 당유자청을 제조하고 이를 적정 비율로 희석하여 제조한 당유자차의 맛, 색상과 향을 비교하였다 또한 원료세절 후 정백 당에 당침
