This study was carried out to investigate the food value of K. pictus sprouts. The total ginsenoside content was 67.4 mg/kg. Including Ginsenoside Rg1, a total of five different types were detected by the experiment. The total phenol content was 33.77 mg/100 g. Including seven different type of essential amino acids, the total amino acid content of K. pictus sprouts was 33,744 mg/100 g. The results of the analysis of the free amino acid content showed that the total bitterness was much higher than the total sweetness. From the above results, the food characteristics of K. pictus sprouts could be determined. To improve their consumption, their bitterness must be reduced.

Cancer-inducing PMA stimulates cells to increase the expression of transcription factor c-Jun/c-fos and then increase the activity of AP-1 in the nucleus. The activity of AP-1 has been reported to cause cancer. In this study, We conducted cytotoxicity experiments to assess the safety of natural marker compounds and also observed inhibition of activator protein(AP-1) activity to predict cancer-preventing effects. The results of this experiment indicated that arctigenin, manassantin A, and B can predict the development of cancer prevention agents.

Hypsizigus marmoreus is a wild mushroom commonly consumed in South Korea due to its beneficial effects on health. In the present study, the general chemical and inorganic-element composition, the total amino acid contents, and the volatile-flavor compounds of H. marmoreus were investigated for food uses. The proximate compositions consisted of 60.1% carbohydrate, 32.0% crude protein, 8.98% moisture, 5.0% ash, and 2.0% crude lipid. The minerals in H. marmoreus were found to be as follows; potassium (429.5 mg), phosphorus (101.9 mg), sodium (20.3 mg), magnesium (54.86 mg), calcium (2.7 mg), zinc (0.8 mg), iron (0.7 mg), manganese (0.2 mg), and copper (0.1 mg), based on 100 g of mushroom dry weight. Seventeen kinds of total amino acids were found in H. marmoreus, with the glutamine acid content being the highest (2,340 mg/100 g), followed by the asparagine, serine, arginine, and leucine contents. The volatile-flavor components of H. marmoreus were collected via simultaneous steam distillation extraction (SDE), and were analyzed via gas chromatography-massspectrophotometry (GC-MS). A total of 17 volatile-flavor compounds were identified, including eight aldehydes, seven alcohols, one acids, and one other compounds. The most abundant compound was 2,3,6-trimethy1 pyridine, which accounted for more than 40% of the total volatiles; other important compounds were 1-octen-3-o1, buty1hydroxytoluene (BHT), isoocty1 phthalate, 3-octanal, 1-undecanol, and 2-amylfuran. These results provide preliminary data for the development of H. marmoreus as an edible food material.

Contents of phenolic acids, flavonoids, and anthocyanins of mulberries (Morus alba L.) cultivated in a greenhouse (GH) and open field (OF) were evaluated by HPLC during maturation. In the case of phenolic acids, caffeic acid ($96.37{\sim}824.00{\mu}g/g$), coumaric acid ($19.45{\sim}68.23{\mu}g/g$), ferulic acid ($4.50{\sim}18.66{\mu}g/g$), and sinapic acid ($15.61{\sim}29.27{\mu}g/g$) were detected. The major phenolic acid was caffeic acid, and its content increased in the initial stage and decreased in the last stage. The phenolic acid content of OF mulberries was higher than that of GH mulberries. Contents of two major flavonoids, quercetin, and kaempferol, were $44.17{\sim}1,661.73{\mu}g/g$ and $108.67{\sim}360.20{\mu}g/g$, respectively. Quercetin content decreased with maturation stage, whereas kaempferol content remained constant in GH mulberries but increased in OF mulberries. In the case of cultivation methods, quercetin content of OF mulberries was higher than that of GH mulberries. Contents of cyanidin, delphinidin, malvidin, and pelargonidin were $30.43{\sim}6,443.88{\mu}g/g$, $0{\sim}52.10{\mu}g/g$, $1.06{\sim}1,650{\mu}g/g$, and $1.92{\sim}401.97{\mu}g/g$, respectively. Anthocyanin content increased with maturation stage, and anthocyanin content of OF mulberries was higher than that of GH mulberries. OF mulberries in the last stage of maturation had higher contents of functional substances than other conditions.

고품질 기능성 고추장을 개발하는데 고추장의 품질은 사용하는 재료, 배합비율, 제조방법, 숙성조건등에 따라 맛과 향기, 색 등에서 차이가 나타난다. 시장경쟁력에 맞추어 공장산 고추장에 기능성을 강화시키고 소비자의 기호성을 충족하기 위해 유기산과 비타민, 무기질이 풍부하고 다양한 생리적 기능성을 가진 국내산 매실엑기스를 공장산 고추장의 품질에 영향을 미치는 반제품에 농도별로 (0％(M0), 10%(M10), 20%(M20), 30%(M30)) 첨가하여 숙성 시 일어나는 화학적 성분변화를 조사하였다. 환원당은 9.6∼10.3%에서 11.9∼12.8%로 증가하였으며 매실엑기스의 첨가 농도가 낮을수록 높은 값을 나타내었다. 아미노산성질소는 숙성이 진행됨에 따라 증가하였으며 매실엑기스가 첨가된 시료의 경우 그 변화폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다. M0(대조구)의 pH는 5.45에서 발효 중 미생물에 의한 유기산생성으로 다소 감소하였으나 M10, M20, M30은 매실에 들어있는 유기산과 키토산으로 초기 pH가 2.87∼3.38로 낮아 변화 폭은 적은 것으로 나타났다. 적정산도는 숙성기간 중 증가하였으며, 대조구에 비해 메실엑기스의 첨가농도가 증가할수록 높은 값을 보였다. 염분(NaCl)은 같은 기간 중 감소하였으며 매실엑기스의 농도가 증가할수록 낮은 수치를 보였다.

This study investigated the chemical composition of four Korean cultivated Chrysanthemum indicum L. (Gamguk 1 ho, Gamguk 2 ho, Gamguk 3 ho, and Wonhyang) which are used in the food and fragrance industries to identify their volatile flavor compounds. These compounds were analyzed using headspace GC-MS from plant samples cultivated in the same region of Korea (Sancheong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do). A total of 23 compounds were identified, eight of which were common across the four cultivars. The major flavor components in the three Gamguk plants were identified as 3-carene, camphene, ${\beta}$-phellandrene, eucalyptol and (+)-camphor. Eleven compounds, including (+)-camphor at 31.40%, were identified in Gamguk 1 ho. Gamguk 2 ho was found to contain 12 flavor compounds, predominant of which was camphene at 25.60%. Thirteen compounds including (+)-camphor (26.88%) were identified in Gamguk 3 ho, while 17 were detected in the Wonhyang cultivar, including trans-piperitol (47.33%), sabinene, and ${\gamma}$-terpinyl acetate. These results indicate differences in the type and ratio of functional volatile flavor ingredients in Chrysanthemum indicum L. cultivars which is highly valuable as material for fragrance product development.

양파는 백합과에 속하는 여러해살이풀로 서남아시아의 페르시아가 원산인데 세계 각국의 온대지방에서 많이 재배하고 있다. 양파의 생약명은 옥총(玉憁)으로 피 속의 콜레스테롤을 떨어뜨리고 심장혈관의 혈류량을 증가시켜 성인병 예방에 좋다. 철원지역은 내륙지방이면서도 고도가 높아 기온차가 큰 대륙성 기후의 성격이 강하기 때문에 이 지역에서 재배한 양파는 남부지방에서 재배된 양파보다 당도가 높고 맛도 좋다고 알려져 있다. 인산질 성분은 특히 근의 발육을 촉진시키는 중요한 성분이다. 하지만 토양부의 인산성분이 수확 시까지 다량 지속되면 양분의 경합으로 뿌리부의 부패를 초래하기 쉽다. 따라서 수확기에 환원형 인산질을 중심으로 엽면시비 방법으로 영양균형을 유도하여 양파의 품질과 저장성을 향상시키는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 아인산(H3PO3)과 수산화칼륨(KOH)을 희석하여 산도조절 후, 아인산염으로 철원양파에 엽면 처리한 후 성분을 비교분석하였다. 본 연구에서 아인산염의 농도를 500, 1000, 1500배 희석하여 철원양파에 2018년 5월에 분무기를 이용하여 3회 엽면살포 한 후 6월 말경 수확한 후 HPLC를 이용하여 페놀화합물을 분석하였다. 그 결과 양파에서 중요한 물질 중의 하나인 큐에르세틴(quercetin)함량은 대조구(96.39 ug/g)에 비해 500배(179.70 ug/g), 1000배(150.27 ug/g), 1500배(105.95 ug/g) 처리구에서 높은 함량을 보였다. 또한 caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, rutin, kaempferol, 당도 함량은 처리구에서 대조구보다 높은 함량을 보였다. 따라서 아인산염 처리는 철원양파에서 페놀화합물의 함량을 높이는데 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 아인산염과 같은 환원형 엽면시비법을 이용하여 재배한다면 고품질의 기능성 양파를 생산할 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.

코레스테롤은 대표적 sterol로서 세포막, oganella막 등의 구성 성분인 동시에 담즙 및 각종 hormon, vitamin D의 전구체가 되는 등 생체기능유지에 있어 매우 중요한 물질이다. 이와같은 콜레스테롤은 체내에서 항상성을 유지하도록 조절되고 있으나 지속적인 동물성위주의 식생활로 인하여 체내 콜레스테롤 농도의 평형이 깨어지기 시작했고 콜레스테롤의 과잉축적은 동맥경화증, 심근경색, 허혈성 뇌질환 등과 순환기계질병을 유발하는 원인이 되는 것으로 알려지고 있다. MRFIT(Mutiple Risk Factor Intervention Tria)에서는 콜레스테롤의 함량이 높을수록 심근경색증으로 인한 사망율이 증가하고, 혈장콜레스테롤이 300mg/dl 이면 200mg/dl인 사람보다 위험도가 4배가 높다고 보고하고 이다. 따라서 콜레스테롤의 조절은 건강과 직결되어 있다고 해도 과언이 아니다. 본고에서는 콜레스테롤의 주요기능을 살펴보고 혈중 콜레스테롤의 저하에 도움이 되는 소재 및 최근 주목받고 있는 동물성 식이섬유인 chitosan의 콜레스테롤의 저하기능을 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다.

Essential oils from Fennel fruit(Foeniculum vulgare Mill), Olibanum resin(Boswellia carteii Birew) and Needl Juniperus stem(Juniperus rigida Sieb.) were extracted by a supercritical fluid extraction system(SFE) and biological activity of each essential oils were observed. SFE technique was applied for the isolation and purification of nonpolar biologically active essential oils from each samples. The quantitative analysis of essential oils was carried out by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC/MS). About 60% of the growth of AGS and A549 cells were inhibited by adding 1.0g/l of the crude essential oils and below 40% was observed by the control. Cytotoxicity on human normal lung cell(HEL299) was scored as $15{\sim}18%$ for the crude essential oils and 12% for control, respectively. It meant that the essential oils were more effective than the control in anti-mutagenecity tested by CHO V79 cells. The effect of the essential oils on the growth of nerve cells, PC12 was observed as follows: The viable cell density was about two times higher than control.
