A comparative study of pretreatment and extraction methods was conducted to investigate their effects on nutritional and bioactive components during hot-water extraction of Acanthopanax senticosus. The herb samples, ground and sifted $(8\~20\;mesh)$ were pretreated with ultrasound (20 kHz), microwave (2,450 MHz) or roasting $(180^{\circ}C)$ for 10 min, and then extracted by a boiling $(180^{\circ}C)$ under atmospheric pressure or a pressured boiling $(121^{\circ}C)$ for 2 hr. In general, the pretreatments improved the extraction efficiency and the DPPH radical scavenging activity of extract. Particularly, the extraction yields of soluble solids, total sugar and phenolic compounds were increased in microwaving methods, and the protein yield and the radical scavenging activity were higher in roosting pretreatment. Yields of soluble solids, total sugar, protein and phenolic compouds in pressured extraction were higher than those in nonpressured extraction. These results suggested that pretreatment including microwave radiation, sonication and roasting and pressured extraction can be utilized for improving the extraction efficiency of A. senticosus.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant properties of Rosa rugosa extract and to identify which of its components are responsible for these properties. Reactive oxygen species play an important role in diseases such as cancer, arteriosclerosis, and heart disease as a consequence of increased metabolic rates, gene mutations, and relative hypoxia. Therefore, the antioxidant effect of R. rugosa extract was confirmed by HPLC, HPLC-MS/MS, the total polyphenol content, the total flavonoid content, and the radical scavenging activity. HPLC and HPLC-MS/MS analyses were conducted to identify and quantify the main components of the R. rugosa extract. Gallic acid and epigallocatechin gallate were identified as the main components, with 17.4 and 4.35 mg/g dry matter (DM), respectively. The antioxidant activity of R. rugosa extract was evaluated based on its total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, and radical scavenging activity, which were 72.3 mg gallic acid equivalent/g DM, 11.2 mg quercetin equivalent/g DM, and 87.9%, respectively. The radical scavenging activities of the main components, gallic acid and epigallocatechin gallate, were 80.5% and 89.7%, respectively. Therefore, R. rugosa has a high polyphenol content and antioxidant activity, and it can be used as a natural antioxidant in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

The present study demonstrated the development and validation of the method for the quantification of phenol in food using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). After spiking of internal standard (Phenol-$d_5$) to food, those samples were extracted with organic solvent mixture (acetone : dichloromethane = 1 : 1, v/v) using ultra sonic extractor and cleaned by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) technique. The amount of phenol was determined by GC/MS. To validate the developed method, we evaluated parameters were the selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and recovery. To demonstrate the selectivity of the method, blank samples of rice, corn, and fish(mackerel) were prepared and subjected to GC-MS analysis. To verify the linearity of the method, six different standard concentrations of phenol at 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2.5 mg/kg were evaluated. The correlation coefficient ($r^2$) of calibration curve was 0.9999. The recovery rate for phenol standard calculated by internal standard method were 82.2~101.5% for samples fortified with 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 mg/kg, respectively. Also the repeatability and reproducibility for validation of precision were 0.2~5.5%. According to the result of the validation, this established method was suitable for AOAC guideline. The limit of detection (LOD) for phenol analysis were 0.03~0.1 mg/kg, and the limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.1~0.3 mg/kg. Therefore, we established the optimal analysis method for determination of phenol in food using GPC and GC/MS.

A laboratory experiment was conducted to determine the content of phenolics and flavonoids, antioxidant activity and antioxidant enzyme activity for the extracts from cowpea seed and sprouts. Plant length and weight of cowpea sprouts were significantly increased until 7 days after seeding. Total phenolics level [mg chlorogenic acid equivalents (CAE) $kg^{-1}$ DW] was highest in dry seed (DS) extracts of cowpea ($63.9mg\;kg^{-1}$), followed by imbibed seed (IS) ($56.8mg\;kg^{-1}$) and 1-day-old sprout (1DOS) extracts ($46.4mg\;kg^{-1}$), and significantly reduced with increase of sprout age (p < 0.05). The antioxidant activity of the methanol extracts from all the samples showed same tendency to the results of total phenolics level, and dose-dependently increased. DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical) free radical scavenging activity was higher in DS (87.3%) and IS (41.2%) than in cowpea sprouts from 1DOS to 7DOS, ranging from 17.1 to 30.4%. Antioxidant enzymes, APX, POX, and POX activities were highest in 7DOS and lowest in DS. SOD activity showed much higher activity in sprouts and in seeds. Correlation coefficient between physiological-active substance and the activity was highest between APX and CAT activities ($r^2$= 0.9574). Especially, total phenolics content was more highly correlated with antioxidant or with antioxidant enzyme activities than was total flavonoid level.

HPLC was used for determining polyphenols which are known as the functional compounds in the unripe apples Fuji and Aori. The changes in their contents caused by heat treatments were monitored. The carbohydrate contents in Fuji and Aori were 14.1% and 13.5% respectively. Both apple juices showed pH 3.2 and $8.0\;brix^{\circ}$, which were relatively low levels. The major polyphenols were composed of (+)-catechin, chlorogenic acid, (-)-epicatechin, and tannic acid. Total polyphenol contents in Fuji and Aori were 0.11, 0.12% by Folin-Denis method. HPLC analysis of polyphenols showed that four major components were contained by 0.06% in Fuji and 0.07% in Aori. Chlorogenic acid was three times higher in Fuji than in Aori. After water blanching, the area percent of polyphenols resulted in an increase by 3.54% in Fuji but a decrease by 2.93% in Aori. Pasteurization of juices led to decrease by 1.39% and 3.31% respectively. Blanching and pasteurization of unripe apple juices induced negligible changes in polyphenol contents during storage. During concentration, polyphenol contents increased in proportion to the concentration of unripe apple juices.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of heat shock treatments on the phytochemicals including antioxidants and anticancer materials in kale (Brassica oleracea L. var. acephala) sprouts. In study I, kale sprouts grown under the growing system for four days were soaked at 40, 50, or $60^{\circ}C$ distilled water for 10, 30, or 60 seconds, and in study II, kale sprouts were soaked at $50^{\circ}C$ distilled water for 10, 20, 30, 45, or 60 seconds. After the heat shock treatments, the sprouts were transferred into normal growing conditions and recovered there for two days. Fresh and dry weights, electrolyte leakage, total phenolic concentration, antioxidant capacity, total flavonoid concentration, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity, and glucosinolates content of the sprouts were measured before and after the heat shock treatments. As a result, there was a significant decrease in the fresh and dry weight of kale sprouts treated with heat shock compared with control at harvest in study I. Especially, heat shock at $60^{\circ}C$ lead to more pronounced growth inhibition compared with heat treatments at 40 and $50^{\circ}C$. Electrolyte leakage by cell collapse was the highest in the sprouts exposed to $60^{\circ}C$ distilled water, which agreed with the growth results. Heat shock at $50^{\circ}C$ significantly induced the accumulation of phenolic compounds. In study II, fresh weight of kale sprouts at $50^{\circ}C$ heat shock showed a significant decrease compared with the control at one and two days after the treatment. However, the decrease was minimal and dry weight of kale sprouts was not significantly different from that in control. In contrast, the heat shock-treated kale sprouts had higher level of total phenolic concentration than control at harvest. Heat shock treatments at $50^{\circ}C$ for 20 seconds or more showed at least 1.5 and 1.2 times higher total phenolic concentration and antioxidants capacity than control, respectively. The change of the total flavonoid concentration was similar with that of antioxidants. PAL activity after 24 hours of heat shock was higher in all the heat shock-treated sprouts than that in control suggesting heat shock may stimulate secondary metabolic pathway in kale sprouts. Seven glucosinolates were identified in kale sprouts and soaking the sprouts with $50^{\circ}C$ water for 20 seconds had a pronounced impact on the accumulation of total glucosinolates as well as two major glucosinolates, progoitrin and sinigrin, at harvest. In conclusion, this study suggests that heat shock using hot water would be a potential strategy to improve nutritional quality of kale sprouts by inducing the accumulation of phytochemicals with antioxidant and anticancer properties.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a well-known herb that is widely consumed as spice for the flavoring of foods. As part of our continuing search for bioactive materials, the in vitro pancreatic lipase inhibition and antioxidant properties of an aqueous ethanolic extract of Z. officinale were investigated. The total phenolic content was determined using a spectrophotometric method. The antioxidant efficacies of the extract was studied with radical scavenging assays using DPPH and $ABTS^+$ radicals. Further more, the antiobesity effect of the extract was evaluated by porcine pancreatic lipase assay. In particularly, the pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity of the ethyl acetate (EtOAc)-soluble portion from Z. officinale was significantly higher than that of the other solvent-soluble portions. The results suggest that Z. officinale may have therapeutic potential that may be useful in development of an anti-obesity agent or its precursors.
