The effects of dietary supplementation with Hizikia fusiformis on anti-hyperlipidemic activities were investigated in an animal study in which normal rats were fed Hizikia fusiformis, Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract and Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract residue. Serum total lipid and triglyceride levels were significantly (P<0.05) reduced in rats fed Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract residue at a dose of 200 mg/kg body weight when compared to hyperlipidemic control rats. There were also significant decreases in serum total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels in the rats fed Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract residue at 200 mg/kg body weight. In addition, the atheroscrelosis index and superoxide dismutase in blood lipids were significantly (P<0.05) lowered in rats fed Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract residue at 200 mg/kg body weight, as compared to control rats. In conclusion, Hizikia fusiformis and Hizikia fusiformis ethanol extract residue had beneficial antihyperlipidemic and antiarteriosclerosis effects.

This study was performed to examine the optimum addition amount of Hizikia fusiformis powder to be used with rice flour in the preparation of Hizikia fusiformis Sulgidduk (traditional rice cake). Hizikia fusiformis powder was added to rice powder at ratios of 5, 10, 15 and 20% (w/w). The moisture content of Sulgidduk was increased with the addition of Hizikia fusiformis powder, whereas the pH content was decreased. The addition also lowered the lightness and yellowness values but increased the greenness value. Mineral contents were increased. Hardness, springiness, and brittleness were decreased, and cohesiveness was increased as the added powder content also increased. In the sensory evaluation of Hizikia fusiformis Sulgidduk, color, flavor, taste, softness, chewiness, moistness, cohesiveness, and overall acceptability characteristics were all highest at the 10% addition level. Thus it can be proposed that this is the ideal level of Hizikia fusiformis addition in terms of the sensory properties of the cooked product.

This study investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Jeungpyun prepared with various levels of barley flour and Hizikia fusiformis powder. The pH, volume, and spreadability of the dough as well as the moisture content, color, texture, and sensory evaluation of Jeungpyun were analyzed. The results show that the pH of dough decreased in all sample groups with fermentation time and ultimately revealed a pH level ranging from 5.36~5.44. The spreadability of the dough significantly decreased as the substitute amount of barley flour increased; the sample group with 1% Hizikia fusiformis powder showed a significantly larger spreadability than the sample group with 2% Hizikia fusiformis powder (p<0.01). The moisture content of Jeungpyun significantly increased as the substitute amount of barley flour increased (p<0.01). Lightness and yellowness were reduced as the substitute amount of Hizikia fusiformis powder increased. In measuring texture, the 50% sample group with a high substitute rate of barley flour was observed to have high characteristics of hardness, gumminess, and chewiness. The results of the acceptance test show that the sample group with substituted 50% barley flour and added 2% Hizikia fusiformis powder had a higher acceptance than the sample group with 0% barley flour in terms of color, flavor, texture, and overall acceptance.

The seaweed Hizikia fusiformis is rich in protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. We investigated the physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of yanggaeng made with agar, sugar, honey, oligosaccharide, cooked white bean paste, and different amounts (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5%) of H. fusiformis powder. The proximate composition, pH, sugar content, color, texture, antioxidant activity, and sensory properties of the yanggaeng were investigated. The moisture and sugar contents of the yanggaeng did not change despite increasing the amount of H. fusiformis. The pH decreased with increasing H. fusiformis. The lightness decreased significantly, whereas the redness and yellowness increased with increasing amounts of H. fusiformis. In the texture profile analysis, the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased with increasing H. fusiformis content. The antioxidant activity of the yanggaeng increased with the concentration of the H. fusiformis powder. The yanggaeng containing 2% H. fusiformis had the highest overall sensory acceptance score. The addition of H. fusiformis to yanggaeng appears to improve its quality and antioxidant activity.

To establish the optimum formular for processing bread with steam-dried Hizikia fusiformis flour(SHF), it was incorporated into wheat flour by the ratio of 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7% based on a flour weight. Evaluation was performed on the rheological and sensory profile of bread, such as specific loaf volume, water holding capacity(WHC) and height, appearance and Hunter's color value, mechanical texture properties, and sensory value. Increase in the addition of SHF led to the tendency that the expansive force of dough fermentation reduced, and an increase in the textural properties of bread. And cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness indicated the tendency of a little reduction as influenced by adding more dried Hizikia fusiformis powder. As for sensory properties and flavor components of the white bread, in case of color and flavor, more than 3% of increase in the addition of the dried Hizikia fusiformis powder led to a drop in preference, and more addition led to a fall in taste and softness. Overall, it was found that adding less than 3% of dried Hizikia fusiformis powder is proper for dough in breadmaking.

This study was performed to determine the optimal manufacturing conditions of cookies prepared with Hizikia fusiformis. The variables in Hizikia fusiformis cookies production were the amounts of Hizikia fusiformis powder, butter, and sugar. Six sensory characteristics were used for sensory evaluations, including color, appearance, taste, brittleness, hardness, and overall acceptability. The optimal amounts of the three variables were found to be 6.00 g for Hizikia fusiformis powder, 100.00 g for butter, and 70.00 g for sugar against flour powder 200 g, which satisfies a target sensory score (7.0/9.0) according to the response surface method. Cookies with these optimal amounts of Hizikia fusiformis powder, butter, and sugar were tasted by 114 consumers and showed a high acceptability score (7.21). Females preferred the flavor of Hizikia fusiformis significantly more than males did (p<0.05). Older consumers (${\geq}30$ years old) scored significantly higher than younger consumers (${\leq}29$ years old) in texture (p<0.05). Spread ratio and hardness scores of Hizikia fusiformis cookies were lower than those of control cookies. Color analysis results of Hizikia fusiformis cookies were significantly lower in brightness and redness, and higher in yellowness than control cookies (p<0.01).

This study was conducted to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics, perform a sensory evaluation of glutinous barley gruel after adding Hizikia fusiformis powder to promote consumption, and identify the best ratio and recipe. The gruel was prepared with rice and glutinous barley powder, and various levels (0, 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5%) of H. fusiformis powder. pH, color, viscosity, and spreadability of the gruel were investigated. A sensory evaluation was conducted by 20 panelists in the categories of color, flavor, taste, texture appearance, and overall preference using a 9-point hedonic scale. The viscosity and pH of the gruel increased as H. fusiformis powder content increased, whereas spreadability of the gruel decreased gradually as H. fusiformis powder content increased. As the level of H. fusiformis powder increased, lightness decreased significantly, whereas redness and yellowness increased. Color, bitter taste, and H. fusiformis flavor of the gruel increased significantly as H. fusiformis powder content increased. On the other hand, sweet taste (delicious taste level) and viscosity were not different among the different gruels. The sensory test results indicated that the gruel with 5% H. fusiformis powder had the best overall acceptability. In conclusion, glutinous barley gruel with 5% added H. fusiformis powder was more acceptable than the others.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of drying methods on the polyphenol contents and antioxidant activities of Hizikia fusiformis. The seaweed was dried using four different conditions: vacuum drying (VD) at $20^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ and hot-air drying (HD) at $40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$. After drying, the total phenol content, DPPH and nitrite scavenging activities of the water extracts were determined. The total phenol contents were significantly (p<0.05) higher in the vacuum dried samples than the hot-air dried samples. DPPH radical was scavenged 82.67% and 83.45% by VD-20 and VD-30, and 70.44% and 71.23% by HD-40 and HD-60, respectively. At pH 1.2, Hizikia fusiformis scavenged 87.43%, 88.45%, 72.14% and 73.45% of nitrite by the treatment VD-20, VD-30, HD-40 and HD-60, respectively. Interestingly, the nitrite scavenging activity was much more reduced at pH 3.0 than at pH 1.2. Through these experiments, we were able to show that the drying conditions affect the total phenol contents and antioxidant capacities of Hizikia fusiformis.

This study was performed to determine the optimal ratio for preparing an extract comprising the Ecklonia cava and Hizikia fusiformis complex as a therapeutic material for alleviating inflammatory respiratory diseases. First, to examine the optimal ratio for preparing the complex (SD-EH), Ecklonia cava and Hizikia fusiformis extracts were used; four extracts with different mixing ratios were prepared. The effects of the SD-EH extract on MUC5AC mRNA expression in PMA-treated NCI-H292 cells were analyzed; it was confirmed that the MUC5AC expression was significantly reduced after treatment with the SD-EHA-001 (E(100) : H(0)), SD-EHB-001 (E(90) : H(10)), SD-EHC-001 (E(80) : H(20)), and SD-EHD-001 (E(70) : H(30)) extracts. Western blotting was used to determine whether the SD-EH extract affects the expression levels of COX-2 and MMP-9 in PMA-treated A549 cells. The protein expression levels of COX-2 and MMP-9 were significantly lower (p < 0.001) in the cells treated with the SD-EHC-001 (E(80):H(20)), SD-EHD-001 (E(70) : H(30)), and SD-EHE-001 (E(60) : H(40) extracts than in the cells treated with PMA alone. The SD-EHC-001 (E(80) : H(20)) extract markedly downregulated the expression levels of MUC5AC, COX-2, and MMP-9. Therefore, the SE-EH extract may serve as a potential therapeutic agent for treating inflammatory respiratory diseases.
