The extracts of four species of ectomycorrhizal mushrooms-Cantharellus cinnabarinus (OK1247), Lactarius parallelus (OK1264), Tricholoma matsutake (OK1282), and Ramaria botrytis (OK1283)-were prepared to determine their antioxidant activities and nutritional properties. R. botrytis extract displayed the highest 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity (33.8%), ferric reducing antioxidant power (0.38), reducing power (0.35), total polyphenol (13.83 mg gallic acid equivalent/g), and flavonoid contents (2.56 mg quercetin equivalent/g). L. parallelus extract displayed the highest nitrite scavenging activity. Analysis of amino acid contents revealed that C. cinnabarinus extract had the highest total amino acid (1,046.1 mg/kg) and essential amino acid (404.9 mg/kg) contents, while R. botrytis extract had the lowest total amino acid (708.3 mg/kg) and essential amino acid (247.3 mg/kg) contents. Among the amino acid components detected in the four ectomycorrhizal mushrooms, cysteine was the most abundant, accounting for 14.3~20.7%, followed by phenylalanine, which accounted for 9.5~13.4% of all amino acids. In summary, the antioxidant activities were the highest in R. botrytis extract, and the amino acid content was the highest in C. cinnabarinus extract, among the four ectomycorrhizal mushrooms.

This study aimed to investigate the amino acid content, fatty acid composition, total flavonoid and phenol contents, and antioxidant activities of Prunus yedoensis Matsum. bark extracts using various extraction solvents. Through amino acid analysis, 13 amino acids were detected in extracts obtained using hot water, 30% ethanol, and 70% ethanol. The major amino acids were identified as aspartic acid, arginine, and proline, and the total amino acid content was 0.17%, 0.16%, and 0.09%, respectively. Fatty acid analysis showed a saturated fatty acid (SFA) ratio of 62.7-66.7% in extracts obtained using hot water, 30% ethanol, and 70% ethanol, with the primary fatty acid identified as palmitic acid. The total flavonoid and polyphenol contents were 727.70-769.87 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/ g and 309.24-348.09 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g, respectively, in extracts obtained using hot water, 30% ethanol, and 70% ethanol extracts. Measurements of antioxidant activity confirmed that extracts obtained using hot water, 30% ethanol, and 70% ethanol extracts increased the antioxidant effect in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) in a concentration-dependent manner. A high correlation was observed between the total flavonoid content, total polyphenol content, and antioxidant activities of the extracts. This study provides data and novel insights for the development of functional food materials using P. yedoensis Matsum. bark extracts.

To evaluate the possibility of using a by-products of skipjack canning as a food or feedstuff, the proximate composition, total and free amino acids, total lipid composition, and nucleotide related compounds were analyzed. The crude protein was highest in dark muscle, while lipid was highest in head. The important total amino acids in by-products were founded to be glycine, glutamic acid, alanine and histidine. The important free amino acids from dark muscle and head were taurine, histidine and anserine. The amounts of histidine, anserine and carnosine in dark muscle was higher than those of cooking drips, head, and raw vicera. The major fatty acids in by-products were palmitic, stearic, oleic and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The inosine and hypoxanthine were important nucleotide related compounds in by-products. The results suggests that by-products from skipjack can be used as food sources and feedstuffs especially for marine fish culture.

액젓은 어류, 패류, 어류의 내장 등에 소금을 가하여 부패균의 번식을 억제하고, 어패류 자체의 효소와 외부 미생물의 효소작용으로 육질을 분해시킨 후 걸러서 만든 독특한 맛과 풍미의 발효식품이다. 액젓은 숙성과정을 통하여 단백질이 폴리펩타이드 형태를 거쳐 다시 펩타이드에서 정미성분인 아미노산으로 분해되게 된다. 액젓의 주된 역할은 천연 조미의 역할이고 그 맛의 결정 요인은 저분자 질소화합물이라 할 수 있으나 핵산 관련 물질 중 맛의 주성분인 IMP는 숙성기간이 지남에 따라 분해되기 때문에 많은 영향은 미치지 않을 것으로 보여진다.

The antioxidant activities and β-glucan contents of hot-water extracts of the eggs and fruiting bodies of Phallus indusiatus were investigated using different drying methods, and the amino acid contents as nutritional components of the eggs and fruiting bodies of P. indusiatus were analyzed. DPPH radical scavenging and nitrite scavenging activities of hot-water extracts of the eggs of P. indusiatus obtained after hot-air drying were 59.4% and 15.6%, respectively, at 1 mg/ml concentrations, which showed higher activities than those of freeze dried samples. Total polyphenol and β-glucan contents in hot-air-dried hot-water extracts of the eggs of P. indusiatus were 8.25 mg GAE/g and 45.9%, respectively, which were the highest among all samples. Additionally, 17 amino acids were detected from the hot-water extracts of the eggs and fruiting bodies of P. indusiatus, and the amino acid contents were higher in the eggs than in the fruiting bodies. Cysteine, phenylalanine, and glutamic acid were the most abundant essential and non-essential amino acids in the analyzed extracts. The results of this study showed that the physiological activities of the antioxidants from P. indusiatus, well known as wild edible mushroom, were greater when extracted from the dried samples. Further, the amino acid contents were higher in the egg extracts than in the extracts from the fruiting bodies of P. indusiatus.

The free amino acid level in aerial parts was 1,613.10 mg% and that in roots was 3,282.96 mg%. The mineral content of aerial parts was 3,531.53 mg% and that of roots was 1,878.34 mg%. The K, Ca, and Mg levels were greater than those of other minerals, with K comprising more than 75% of the total mineral content. The levels of polyphenol and flavonoid compounds in aerial parts were 1,920.00 mg% and 843.95 mg%, respectively, and those in roots were 487.56 mg% and 91.07 mg%, respectively.

This experiment was carried out to compare the difference of lipid components, amino acid composition by size of sea eel. Large sea eel(length 57.5-60.0cm, weight 269.5-300.0g) was higher in moisture and crude protein content, and lower in crude lipid content than those of small sea eel(28.8-31.2cm, 39.5-43.6g). Total lipid(TL) of large and small sea eel were consisted of 89.7%, 93.3% neutral lipid, 8.9%, 5.2% phospholipid, and 1.4%, 1.5% glycolipid, respectively. In fatty acid composition of TL, large fishes revealed higher content in polyunsaturated fatty acids such as 20:5, 22:5, 22:6, while lower in saturates and monoenes such as 16:0, 16:1, 18:1 than those of small fishes. The major fatty acids of these fishes were generally 18:1, 16:0, 22:6, 16:1 and 20:5 in order. Total amino acid contents of large and small sea eel were 17022.7mg/100g, 15409.4mg/100g. And the main amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, arginine. Large fishes was higher in cystine, methionine, tyrosine, phenylalanine content, while lower in aspartic acid, glutamic acid than those of small ones.

The aim of this study was to investigate the biological activity of extracts obtained from the mycelium, sclerotium, and fruiting body of Wolfiporia cocos using different extraction solvents (hot water, 70% ethanol, and 70% methanol). Among the three developmental stages, the mycelium extracts showed the highest DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), nitrite scavenging activity, and total polyphenolic content. Among the extraction solvents in the context of the W. cocos mycelium, the DPPH radical scavenging activity, FRAP, and total polyphenol content in the hot-water extracts were significantly higher than those in the other extracts. In the case of the sclerotium, the reducing power, nitrite scavenging activity, and total polyphenol content were significantly higher in 70% ethanolic extracts. The fruiting body showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power, nitrite scavenging activity, and total polyphenol content in the context of hot-water extraction. Moreover, the β-glucan content was significantly higher in the sclerotium versus the mycelium or fruiting body. The total amino acid and total essential amino acid contents were remarkably higher in the mycelium and fruiting body than in the sclerotium; of note, and arginine (Arg) and phenylalanine (Phe) were highly detected among the amino acid components.
