The effect of natural foods, utilizing the extracts or juices of teas(Green tea; Camellia sinesis, Du'chung; Eucommia ulmoides Oliver), medicinal plants(Eu sung cho; Houttuynia cordata Thunb, Sam back cho; Saurus Chinensis, Baek hwa sa seal cho; Oldenladia diffusa Roxb.) seaweeds(Laver; Porphyra tenera, Sea mustard; Undaria pinnatifida, Sea staghorn; Condium fragile) and vegetables(Sweet pepper; Capsicum annuum var. angulosum, Kale; Brassia oleracea var.. acephala, Cucumber; Cucumis sativus, Onion; Allium cepa) and fruits(Tomato; Lycopericon esculentum, Maesil; Prunus mume, Plum; Prunus saticina and Grape; Vitis spp.)on the inhibition of N-Nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) formation was investigated from the various conditions. The inhibition effect was observed in vitro using the reaction fluids of pH 1.2, 4.2 and 6.0. From the teas and medicinal plants, there was a positive response of NDMA formation; however, From the seaweed extracts, there was a negative response of the inhibition effect of NDMA formation, and as the pH of reaction fluids and the amount of materials increase, the inhibition of NDMA formation was strengthened. The inhibition ratios by the level of pH are as follows: under pH 1.2 vegetable juice were 57.6∼99.7% and fruits were 35.9∼99.7%; under pH 4.2 vegetable juice were 55.0∼97.5% and fruits were 21.3∼96.8%. All of the materials observed has been proved and shown the inhibition effect of NDMA formation.

The effect of inhibition on N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation by methanol extracts from 6 kinds of citrus seed (Citrus sunki, Citrus natsudaidai, Citrus sulcata, Citrus tangerina, Citrus grandis and Citrus obovoidea) were investigated. The contents of moisture, crude protein, crude fat, carbohydrate, ash, flavonoid and total phenol in citrus seeds were 4∼6, 11∼15, 32∼46, 22∼45, 2∼4%, 12∼24mg% and 53∼133mg%, respectively. The solid contents and yield of citrus seed extracts were 0.8∼1.0 and 0.7 ∼ 1.1%, respectively. Nitrite-scavenging activity by methanol extracts from citrus seeds increased with increasing extract dosage. Furthermore, the nitrite scavenging activity was pH dependent being the highest at pH 1.2 (42.7∼96.9%) and the lowest at pH 6.0 (19.9-62.6%). Scavenging effects of nitrite by reaction time showed high effects under 3hr reaction time. The inhibition effect of NDMA formation by the citrus seed was strengthened as the amount of extract increased. The inhibition rate of methanol extracts from citrus seeds on NDMA formation showed 1.2∼39.8%, 21.3∼60.1% and 47.4∼94.0%, according to add 1, 3 and 5$m\ell$, respectively. Therefore, the inhibition effect of NDMA formation by the citrus seed was strengthened as the concentration of extract increased.

Five citrus juices were separated into a ascorbate and phenolic portion using rep-pak C$\_$18/ cartridge, respectively, in order to elucidate the nitrite scavenging effect and N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) formation in model system. The nitrite scavenging effect of ascorbate portion from citrus juices, in the different pH, when added with 5ml were 79.9 ∼98.6% under the condition of pH 2.5. 48.5∼86.3% at pH 4.2 and lower than 35.2% at pH 6.0. The nitrite scavenging effect was excellent phenolic portion rather than ascorbate portion. Particularly, the effect was more 2 times than ascorbate portion under the reaction condition of pH 6.0. When added the phenolic portion in the reaction mixture, NDMA formation was inhibited 92.8% or more in kum quat, mandarin orange and sweet orange juices. But the ascorbate portion was a negative response of the inhibition of NDMA formation. The inhibition on NDMA formation in citrus juice may be due to phenolic compounds were reacted.

The present paper was carried out to investigate the inhibition of carcinogenic N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) formation by Maillard reactiion products and nondialyzable melanoidins, obtiane dfrom the glucoseamino acids(Lys, Gly, Arg, His) model systems under different pH conditions(pH 1.2, 4.2 and 6.0). Maillard raction products and nondialyzable melanoidins, produced from the 4 model systems, had a inhibitory action of N-nitrosodimethylamine formation. The inhibitiondegree by the nondialyzable mealanoidins. at pH 1.2 was similar to that at pH 4.2 and that by ascorbic acid at pH 1.2 . Inhibitory action of N-nitrosodimehylamine formation by the reduced Maillard reaction products and nondialyzable melanoidins were lower than that of original samples. Accordingly, it is assumed that the inhibition of N-nitrosodimehtylamine formation of Maillard reaction products is due to their reducing powers.

This study was conducted to investigate of inhibition activity of yuza (Citrus junos) extracts and juice on nitrite scavenging and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation in model system. Yuza juice was separated into organic acid, ascorbate and phenolic portion using sep-pak $C_{18}$ cartridge, respectively. Nitrite scavenging activity and inhibition of NDMA formation from yuza extract has shown higher inhibition with pH of reaction condition lower and amount of added sample more. And peel extract of yuza was higher than those of flesh extract. Nitrite scavenging activity was excellent juice portion rather that 3 portions. Of the 3 portions, it activity was the highest in the organic acid portion, and decreased in the following order; phenolic acid, ascorbate portion. Therefore, organic acid of yuza was suggested to expect effective ihhibitor of NDMA formation.

Four kinds of marketing black garlics (A, B, C and D products) from Namhae were analysed the antioxidant, nitrite scavenging activities and inhibition of nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation. Total pyruvate and thiosulfate contents were higher in the black garlics than fresh garlic, and their contents were the highest in B product. Total phenol and flavonoids contents in the water and 80% ethanol extracts from black garlics were higher in water than ethanol extract, and all black garlics were higher than fresh garlic. And these contents of A product were somewhat higher compared to the others. Antioxidant activities, such as DPPH, ABTs, hydroxyl and nitric oxide radical scavenging showed stronger in water than ethanol extracts. And their activities in all products of black garlic were higher than the extracts of fresh garlic, and their activities of A and B products were similar to each other. In pH 2.5, nitrite scavenging activity and inhibition of NDMA formation were stronger in the black garlics than fresh garlic, and A product was the highest. Moreover, inhibition of NDMA formation from black garlic showed similar trends compared to the antioxidant activities. Therefore, we expect that the black garlic will contribute to the inhibition of carcinogenesis in vivo.

The study was focused to investigate the effect of nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation due to nitrosamine (NA) precursor and/or inhibitor addition to Kimchi during the fermentation of Kimchi at room temperature ($16{\pm}2^{\circ}C$). The addition of nitrite and dimethylamine (DMA) to Kimchi showed the average 32-fold ($21.3{\sim}113.9\;\mu\textrm{g}/kg$) and 9-fold ($1.3{\sim}40.3\;\mu\textrm{g}/kg$) higher NDMA formation than control ($O{\sim}5.6\;\mu\textrm{g}/kg$), respectively. Also, the addition of both nitrite and DMA resulted in the increase of NDMA formation to average 42-fold ($39.4{\sim}155.7\;\mu\textrm{g}/kg$) higher than control. On the other hand, the addition of 4 ruM ascorbic acid to Kimchi with nitrite and DMA inhibited the formation of NDMA down to 71.3% of control. However, the addition of cysteine and erythorbic acid affected no inhibition to NDMA formation during the test. The addition of sodium sulfite increased NDMA formation. Accordingly, this showed that the amount of ascorbic acid generated during Kimchi fermentation played an important inhibition role for NA formation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of garlic extracts on electron donating ability nitrite-scavenging activity and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation. Content of total phenolic compounds was the highest in ethyl acetate extract. Electron donating ability was significantly increased with increasing sample concentration, as $88.0{\pm}1.53%$ from ethyl acetate extract and $77.5{\pm}0.8%$ from butanol extract in concentration of 10 mg/mL. Butanol extract from garlic with highest nitrite scavenging activity and inhibition effect of NDMA formation exhibited $96.9{\pm}0.75%$ and $68.6{\pm}1.15%$ in concentration of 10 mg/mL, respectively. The butanol extract was fractionated into 5 fractions using prep-LC. Nitrite-scavenging activity and inhibition effect of NDMA formation were excellent in fraction III, which further fractioned into 3 subfractions (III-a, III-b and III-c) using prep-LC. Of the 3 subfractions, its activity was the highest in the subfraction III-c. Therefore butanol extract of garlic was suggested to be effective inhibitor of NDMA formation.
