The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of mungbean starch gels that were prepared with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%) of peach seed powders (PSP), which exhibit antioxidant characteristics. Mungbean starch gel samples were prepared and subjected to quality characteristics such as moisture content, general components, color, texture profile analysis, total polyphenol contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory qualities. The L-value and the a-value for color decreased significantly, whereas the b-value increased significantly as the PSP concentration increased (p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, the mungbean starch gel with 1.5% PSP showed significantly lower degrees of hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness (p<0.05). The total polyphenol content was highest in the 1.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added, which also showed a higher than 70% DPPH radical scavenging activity level in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.05). In the sensory test of the mungbean starch gel, its sensory scores for flavor and taste were highest in the 0.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added.

The alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) assay, called the comet assay, has been applied to the detection of DNA damage from a number of chemical and biological factors in vivo and in vitro. The comet assay is a novel method to assess DNA single-strand breaks, alkali-labile sites in individual cells. The effect of peach kernel extracts on radiation-induced DNA damage in human blood lymphocytes was evaluated by the SCGE assay. The lymphocytes, with or without pretreatment of the extracts, were exposed to 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 Gy of $^{60}Co$ gamma ray. Significantly increased tail moment, which was a marker of DNA strand breaks in the comet assay, showed an excellent dose-response relationship. The treatment of the peach kernel extracts reduced the DNA damage by 30 % in irradiated groups as compared to that in non-treated control groups. The result indicates that the extracts shows radioprotective effect on lymphocyte DNA when assessed by the comet assay.

중소기업에 다니는 40대 중반의 남성은 얼마 전부터 종종 가슴이 화끈거리는 불쾌한 통증과 함께, 목과 가슴 사이에 복숭아씨가 걸려있는 듯한 답답함을 느꼈다. 혹시나 심장에 이상이 있는 것이 아닌지 검사를 해보았지만, 결과는 정상이었다. 이리저리 알아보다 위액이 역류하는 경우에도 비슷한 증상이 있을 수 있다는 정보를 얻고 소화기내과를 찾았고, 내시경 검사 결과 역류성 식도염 진단을 받았다.

The triglyceride compositions of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil have been investigated by a combination of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas liquid chromatography(GLC). The triglycerides of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil were first separated by thin layer chromatography(TLC), and fractionated on the basis of their partition number(PN) by HPLC on a C-18 ${\mu}-Bondapak$ column with methanol-chloroform solvent mixture. Each of these fractionated groups was purely collected and analyzed by GLC according to acyl carbon number(CN) of triglyceride. Also the fatty acid compositions of these triglycerides were determined by GLC. From the consecutive analyses of these three chromatography techniques, the possible triglyceride compositions of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil were combinated into fifteen and thirteen kinds of triglycerides, respectively. The major triglycerides of peach ternel oil were those of $(3{\times}C_{18:1}\;30.9%)$, $(2{\times}C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;21.2%)$, $(C_{18:1},\;2{\times}C_{18:2}\;10.6%)$, $(3{\times}C_{18:2}\;3.8%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;2{\times}C_{18:1},\;1.8%)$, $(C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;1.5%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;1.1%)$ and those of apricot kernel oil were $(3{\times}C_{18:1},\;39.5%)$, $(2{\times}C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;24.5%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;2{\times}C_{18:2},\;14.2%)$, $(3{\times}C_{18:2},\;2.0%)$.

Amino acid and fatty acid compositions of the physiological activity substance in the seed and pulpy substance of feral peach (Prunus persica Batsch var. davidiana Max.) were analyzed for the use as an biohealth functional processed products. The proximate compositions in the vacuum freeze dried seed and pulpy substance of feral peach were carbohydrate 63.92% and 75.11%, crude protein 27.85% and 12.77%, moisture 3.61% and 4.69%, crude fat 1.21% and 4.80%, crude ash 3.41% and 2.63%, respectively. Total amino acid contents in the protein of feral peach seed were 3,444.35 mg%, and the major amino acids were aspartic acid(681.10 mg%), glutamic acid(495.48 mg%), alanine(283.66 mg%), serine(251.36 mg%), proline(229.80 mg%), lysine(192.31 mg%) and leucine(191.34 mg%), respectively. Total amino acid contents in the protein of feral peach pulpy substance were 1,064.02 mg%, and the major amino acids followed aspartic acid(250.15 mg%), glutamic acid(129. 63 mg%), lysine, proline, leucine, alanine and serine, in a decreasing order. The richest total amino acid content contained in feral peach seed and pulpy substance was aspartic acid, followed by glutamic acid. The amount of free amino acids of feral peach seed were 6,215.34 ms%, and the major free amino acids were glutamic acid(827.25 mg%), threonine, valine and $\beta-aminobutyric$ acid, respectively. Free amino acid contents of pulpy substance were 683.82 mg%, and the major free amino acids were glutamic acid(339.49 mg%), serine proline, alanine and $\gamma-amino-n-butyric$ acid. Especially, in the case of glutamic acid, it was highest. The compositions of major total fatty acid in the lipid feral peach (Prunus persica Batsch var. davidiana Max.) seed and pulpy sabstance were linoleic acid($C_{18:2}$, n-6) and linolenic acid($C_{18:3}$, n-3), particularly.

Various unripe peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) seeds, which were picked on late May, were subjected to 80% methanol extracts to investigate the antioxidant activities, whitening effects, and anti-wrinkle activities. The yield of 6 cultivars (Takinosawa Gold, Kawanakawase Hakuto, Madoka, Yumefuji, Nagasawa Hakuho, and Hong Bak) from unripe peaches were the highest on Yumefuji, followed by Madoka, Kawanakawase Hakuto, Takinosawa Gold, Hong Bak, and Nagasawa Hakuho (6.16%, 6.08%, 5.65%, 5.25%, 5.23%, and 5.20%). The content of the total polyphenol of seed extracts ranged from 18.33 to 27.08 mg/g. The antioxidant in vitro assays including the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were the highest with Hong Bak and Kawanakawase Hakuto. The tyrosinase inhibition activity greatly affected the Takinosawa Gold and Kawanakawase Hakuto. Compared to the elastase inhibition activity of 6 cultivars, Madoka was higher than others, while the lowest was Hong Bak. The significant correlation coefficient values were determined (more than p=0.05) between the yield, total polyphenol content, antioxidant activities, tyrosinase inhibition, and elastase inhibition activities. The results suggested that the total polyphenol content has a high positive value on the DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging activity, and tyrosinase inhibition activity. Also, the tyrosinase inhibition activity and elastase inhibition activity showed a significant correlation (r=+0.594). The ABTS inhibition activity and tyrosinase inhibition activity that is the most suitable character represented significant positive correlation (r=+0.846). This data suggested that the methanol extracts from these unripe peaches could be potential candidates for natural cosmetics.

Methanol extracts from 43 materials of 17 fruit trees were tested for their insecticidal activities toward five agricultural and four stored-product anthropod pests. Efficacy varied with insect species, plant species, and tissue sampled. At a concentration of 2,500 ppm, strong activity was observed with extracts of Chaenomeles sinensis and Punica granatum seeds against Myzus persicae adult females, Vitis vinifera seeds against Nilaparvata lugens adults, Citrus junos, Citrus paradisi, Cucumis melo Linne var. reticulatus, Diospyros kaki, Malus pumila var. dulcissima, Prunug persica, and V. vinifera seeds against Plutella xylostella, Citrus sinensis seeds against Spedoptera litura larvae, and Ch. sinensis and V. vinifera against Tetranychus urticae adults. Against four stored-product insect pests at 50 ppm, seed extracts of Ch. sinensis and V. vinifera against Sitophilus oryzae adults, and Ch. sinensis, C. junos, D. kaki, and V. vinifera against Callosobruchus chinensis adults gave over 80% mortality. Extracts of all samples exhibited little and no activity against Lasioderma serricorne adults and Plodia interpunctella larvae.
