We sought to study the qualities and scientific benefits of Dongchimi, a traditional Korean food. We compared and analyzed ingredients used for the appearance and storability of dongchimi - honggot (Brassica juncea czerniak et coss), cockscomb (Celosia cristata L.), and beet Beta vulgaris L.). We specifically examined the antioxidative and antibacterial activity of pigments from extracts of these ingredients. Distilled water ($H_2O$) and 1% citric acid were used to safely extract pigments. The antioxidative activity of the pigments was then measured for total phenolic compounds, SOD (Super Oxide Dismutase), and EDA (Electron Donation Ability) by DPPH. The antibacterial activity of was also assessed by a Paper disc solution. Our results show that the pigments had sufficient antioxidative activity and had antibacterial properties against Gram positive and negative bacteria. In particular, Cockscomb (used for enhancing color) contained the highest amount of polyphenol compounds and had the most efficient antioxidative activity.

The comparative activities of acetone, ethanol, and aqueous fractions extracted from fruit powder of Cudrania tricuspidata by different temperature were tested by in vitro experimental models; peroxidation of linoleic acid and autooxidation of rat hepatic and renal microsomes by using thiobarbituric acid (TBA) for assay of free malondialdehyde production, and scavenging activities of free radicals by DPPH (α, α'-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl). In DPPH method, acetone fraction extracted at 30℃ showed the highest free radical scavenging activities and acetone fractions extracted at 30℃ and 60℃ and ethanol fraction extracted at 30℃ showed stronger than BHT (butylated hydroxitoluene) although used ten-fold lower concentrations. In thiocyanate method used linoleic acid an inhibitory effects of all fractions showed higher than control treatment. TBA method used linoleic acid showed the highest antioxidative activity in acetone fraction extracted at 30℃ and 60℃. an inhibition activity against lipid peroxidation in hepatic microsomes of rats showed the highest at acetone faction extracted at acetone fraction among extracted fractions was shown to be the most potent antioxidative properties and this action was more potent in fractions extracted at 30℃ than those extracted at 60℃.

We have carried out the antioxidative activity of nuts species for the development of antioxidant from natural products. From our previous report, EtOAc and n-BuOH extracts of acorn hull and chestnut hull were found to have a strong antioxidative activity in various antioxidant experiment. In the continuous study, we isolated several compounds from EtOAc and n-BuOH extracts of acorn hull and chestnut hull by fractionation using column chromatography. The structures of isolated compounds were identified as catechin, naringenin and ellagic acid on the basis of their spectroscopic properties and by comparison of their physical and spectra data with published value. Antioxidative activities of catechin, naringenin and ellagic acid were measured by DPPH, ferric-thiocyanate and Rancimat method.

Soybean is an important plant as it is the source of protein and oil as well as various phytochemicals that are related with biological activity. Over the past decades, scientists have conducted considerable research on the physiological properties of soybeans, especially isoflavones, which are the characteristic components in soybeans. However, there is no research on the properties or the bio-functionality of soybean leaf. Jangachi and kimchi are two of the traditional special dishes of Gyungsang Province in Korea which we made from soybean leaves. Depending on the recipe, green or yellow soybean leaves are used for the preparation of these two side dishes. We compared the antioxidative activity and measured the contents of isoflavones, total phenol, chlorophylls, carotenoids, and vitamin C in the ingredients (green and yellow soybean leaf) and the final side dishes (jangachi and kimchi). We Int report that isoflavones were contained in soybean leaf and that jangachi had the highest isoflavone contents among the samples. Yellow soybean leaf contained higher isoflavones than green soybean lear and kimchi. From the TEAC assay results, the sequence or antioxidative activities was yellow soybean leaf > soybean leaf jangachi > green soybean leaf > soybean leaf kimchi. The sequence was the same with total phenol contents, indicating that antioxidative activity is highly related with total phenol level. Chlorophylls, carotenoids and vitamin C existed abundantly in green soybean leaf. In conclusion, soybean leaf could be a good material for health due to the presence of isoflavones and the other useful antioxidants mentioned above.

pH7.0으로 조절한 2M의 AsA 용액을 $85^{\circ}C$에서 25시간 갈변반응시켜서 생성된 물질 중 항산화효과를 지닌 물질을 분리하고 성질을 조사하였다. 투석내액 및 투석외액 갈변반응물질 모두 항산화성이 존재하였고 투석외액 갈변반응물질의 항산화효과가 더 크게 나타났다. 투석외액 갈변반응물질을 gel 여과하여 분리된 3가지 획분(A, B, C)중 갈변도가 가장 높고 환원력이 가장 낮은 획분(C)의 항산화효과가 가장 크게 나타났다. 항산화성이 중간정도인 획분(B)은 환원력의 세기와 갈변도가 세획분중 중간정도에 속하였고 환원력은 가장 높고 갈변도가 가장 낮은 획분(A)은 항산화효과가 가장 낮았다. UV-Visible spectrum에서 A획분과 B획분은 각각 266.1 및 257.4nm에서 최대흡광 peak를 나타냈으나 C획분은 274.8nm에서 약한 peak를 나타내었다. IR-spectrum 조사결과 A, B 및 C획분 모두 hydroxy 및 carboxylic group이 존재하였고 항산화성이 큰 B와 C분획은 carboxylic ester이었다.

This study was performed to examine the physicochemical and antioxidative properties of the sponge cakes with different contents (0, 2, 4, 6, 8%, w/w) of lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) powder (LBP). An increase in LBP content in the cake led to a significant increase in the baking loss rate, specific volume, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity, total phenol contents and total flavonoid contents of the cakes (p<0.05). As the LBP content increased, significant decreases were shown in the specific gravity of batter, sugar contents, pH, lightness, redness and yellowness of the cakes (p<0.05). Ash contents, uniformity index and other textural properties of hardness, springness, cohesiveness, and brittleness did not show any significant differences between the sample groups (p>0.05). These results suggest that LBP can be applied to sponge cakes to achieve positive textural properties such as uniform pore formation and increased volume with increased antioxidant properties.

This study was conducted to develop and characterize of a high quality salted mackerel using enzymatic extracts of Ecklonia cava (EEC). In this study, potential antioxidative properties of EEC were evaluated by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity, peroxide value, and fatty acid composition, and the antimicrobial properties were also measured by analysis for volatile basic nitrogen, pH, viable cells, Eschericia coli and biogenic amine. Compared to EEC-untreated salted mackerel, the salted mackerel with EEC was superior in antioxidative properties, while was negligible in the difference of antimicrobial properties. These results suggested that the high quality salted mackerel with antioxidative activity could be developed by treatment of EEC.

Recently, much attention has been paid to the physiological functions of flavonoids associated with their antioxidant properties. However, there was a lack of information on the molecular mechanism at which flavonoids play the antioxidative role. We have already studied on the oxidation of quercetin with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite in alcoholic aqueous solution and determined the oxidation products. Through the structural analysis of the oxidation products, it was clarified that the hydroxyl group at C-3 in the C ring plays the important role in the antioxidative action of quercetin. Successively, rutin and (+)-catechin were oxidized with sodium hypochlorite and their mono- and di-chlorinated derivatives were obtained. These facts indicate that these flavonoids can directly scavenge hypochlorous acid and the active site in this scavenging reaction is not the hydroxyl group at C-3.

The colored sweet potato, particularly purple sweet potato, has been well known to contain anthocyanins abundantly. This study was conducted to examine the antioxidant properties of purple sweet potato. The chopped purple sweet potato was extracted 2 times with water or acetone for 18 hours at $28^{\circ}C$. The antioxidative potential of each solvent extract was assessed by DPPH free radical scavenging activity assay, FRAP assay, and total phenolic contents. The results showed that both extracts had not only high DPPH free radical scavenging activity but had high level of total phenolic compounds. Furthermore, both solvent extracts were found to have antioxidative effects in human colon cancer cells (HCT 116, HT 29) in DCFDA assay. The notable antioxidant activity of purple sweet potato suggests its significant health benefit and deserves further study to develop into functional food ingredient.
