This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant activity of Kochujang following the addition of Omija (Schizandra chinensis Baillon) by-product extract powder. This study specifically investigated the total levels of phenolics and flavonoids, the activities of DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging, and FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power). Our results showed that the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of unmodified Kochujang were 4.06 mg TAE/g and 2.87 mg TAE/g, respectively, and that the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of Kochujang with added Omija by-product extract powder were 3.89~5.19 mg TAE/g and 3.11~5.35 mg TAE/g, respectively. As more Omija by-product extract powder was added, the more the total levels of phenolic compounds and flavonoids increased. This study found that DPPH radical scavenging activity in unmodified Kochujang was 25.8% and that in Kochujang with added Omija by-product extract powder was 27.1~39.7% each. These results indicate that Omija by-product extract powder has possibility not only in Kochujang products but also as a functional food with antioxidant activity characteristics. These results also indicate that adding Omija by-product extract powder to Kochujang had significant effects on overall acceptability. Thus, the addition of 5 or 10% of Omija by-product extract powder is desirable for making Kochujang.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of cookies containing laver powder, which is well known for its various functions and biological activity. This study assessed the quality characteristics of cookies containing various concentrations (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8%) of laver powder(LP). To analyze quality characteristics, pH of dough, moisture content, color, hardness, and sensory properties were measured. Qualities, such as pH, brightness, and redness and yellowness and hardness decreased significantly (p<0.001). The total flavonoid and total polyphenol and ABTS radical scavenging activity were proportionally increased with increasing the level of laver powder added in cookies(p<0.001). The antioxidant activity measured by total flavonoid and total polyphenol activities was significantly higher than control and increased proportionally to the laver powder. The result of sensory test shows that sample group adding 2% of laver powder achieved the highest. Based on the above results, this study suggests that the addition of 2% laver powder may be the best substitution ratio for cookies of the improvement of sensory preference and antioxidant. This study exhibited both the functional and health based benefits of laver when it is added to cookies and confirmed the development feasibility of laver cookies considering consumer satisfaction.

In order to test the functionality of Panax ginseng thioredoxin 1 (PgTRX1) isolated from fermented wild ginseng roots, a transient effect on physiological activity were performed over a short time frame using the Agrobacterium infiltration technique. The PgTRX1 gene isolated from fermented wild ginseng was confirmed to have a size of 579 bp, and the expression of PgTRX1 was the highest in the sample after 6 h of fermentation. As a result of constructing this gene and confirming the infiltration reaction mediated by Agrobacterium in tobacco leaves, it was found that the expression of the NbHSR203j gene was also induced as PgTRX1 expression increased. As a result of measuring the biological activity of the infiltration samples, the total phenol content increased by 35.45±1.84 to 49.01±1.84 ㎍ GAE/mL compared to the control, and the total flavonoid amount of 9.52±0.41 to 9.82±0.25 ㎍ QE/mL was slightly high. From these results, Agrobacterium-mediated PgTRX1 appears to be related to the hypersensitive response induction mechanism of plants and the production of secondary metabolites such as phenolic substances.

This study was designed to optimize ethanol extraction process of unfertilized corn silk (UCS) to maximize phytochemical contents and bioactivities. The response surface methodology (RSM) with central composite design (CCD) was employed to obtain the optimal extraction conditions. The influence of ethanol concentration, extraction temperature and extraction time on total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, maysin contents, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical scavenging activities and tyrosinase inhibition were analyzed. For all dependable variables, the most significant factor was ethanol concentration followed by extraction temperature and extraction time. The following optimum conditions were determined by simultaneous optimization of several responses with the Derringer's desirability function using the numerical optimization function of the Design-Expert program: ethanol concentration 80.45%, extraction temperature $53.49^{\circ}C$, and extraction time 4.95 h. Under these conditions, the predicted values of total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, maysin contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity and tyrosinase inhibition were $2758.74{\mu}g\;GAE/g$ dried sample, $1520.81{\mu}g\;QUE/g$ dried sample, 810.26 mg/100g dried sample, 56.86% and 43.49%, respectively, and the overall desirability (D) was 0.74.

Various types of tea have been cultivated to obtain different flavors and enhance their functional properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) teas produced from commercial Korean green, white, and black teas. The concentration of total minerals was reduced in GABA green tea and GABA white tea but was improved in GABA black tea. The essential, non-essential, and total free amino acid contents were remarkably increased in the GABA teas. The amino acid GABA content was increased by 561.00 and 294.20 times in GABA white tea and GABA black tea, respectively. The antioxidant potential was not reduced, although the total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents decreased in GABA green tea and GABA black tea. The results indicated that the overall nutritional value of commercial green, white, and black teas could be improved by processing them into GABA teas.

In this study, we assessed antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-Alzheimer activities of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (OFI) at harvest time. OFIs were cultivated December 2015~November 2016 in Jeju island. The 70% ethanol extracts of OFI were used to investigate total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, antioxidant(DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assay), anti-diabetic(yeast ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and rat ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition assay), and anti-Alzheimer(Acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibition assay) activities. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of OFIs were $17.40{\sim}23.11{\mu}g$ garlic acid/mg Ex and 2.17~6.22 ug (+)-catechine/mg Ex, respectively. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity of OFIs were 131.98~184.90 mg ascorbic acid(AA) eq/100 g and 63.60~101.83 mg AA eq/100 g, respectively. In the anti-diabetic and anti-Alzheimer activities, 70% ethanol extracts of OFI exhibited moderate inhibition activity, compared to control (acarbose and beberine). Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-Alzheimer activities were no significant differences by season, respectively. Therefore, information on comparative biological evaluations of OFI may be a beneficial in exploring functional food and drug development.
