Fruit of Lycium chinense Miller was known to Korean as traditional medicine that has effective components for strengtherning function of human body, especially liver. To study characteristics of the wine and Yakju made by fruit Lycium chinense Miller, general components such as organic acid, methanol, ester, fusel oil and $SO_2$ were analyzed after storing them for 10 and 20 days at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Organic acid contents of the wine were mainly lactic, malic, tartaric and acetic acid. Ester and fusel oil contents of the wine were $4.0{\sim}5.0\;mg%$ and $12{\sim}30\;mg%$, respectively, and the values were smaller than those of the Yakju. Methanol content of the wine was $25{\sim}27\;mg%$. Storage temperature in terms of the quality of the wine and Yakju was better in $20^{\circ}C\;than\;30^{\circ}C$. Treatment of the wine and Yakju either by adding 100 ppm of $SO_2$ or heating at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min was better in quality than control for storage.

In this study, the electron donating ability(EDA) and total polyphenol content of herbal wine were examined. The herbal wine was obtained from extract concentration to evaluate its functional properties. The herbal wine were screened for their potential antioxidant activities using test such as electron donating ability(EDA) and total polyphenol content. The electron donating ability(EDA) were $21.81{\pm}0.56$ in herbal wine 15% and $40.45{\pm}1.60$ in herbal wine 35%. As the extract concentration was increased the electron donating ability(EDA) were significantly increased(p<0.05). The total polyphenol contents were measures $113.89{\pm}1.79{\mu}g\;GAE/m{\ell}$ in herbal wine 15%, $274.24{\pm}0.71{\mu}g\;GAE/m{\ell}$ in herbal wine 35%. As the extract concentration was increased the total polyphenol contents were significantly increased(p<0.05). Also, the total polyphenol contents were measures $61.75{\mu}g\;GAE/m{\ell}$ in herbal wine, the higher.

In this study, the following is the result of measuring the quality characteristics of herbal wine and the active inhibition of Glutathione S-transferase in order to measure the release of physiological active substances according to the concentration of extracts. The pH level of herbal wine was 4.4, up from 3.9 before fermentation. These changes are attributed to fermentation and organic acids during alcoholic fermentation. The acidity of herbal wine was 0.55%, about six times higher than the pre-fermentation control of 0.09%. These results show that organic acids are used for flavor formation, ether, in combination with alcohol. The inhibitory activity of glutathione S-transferase were $5.1{\pm}0.31$ in herbal wine 15%, $6.5{\pm}0.6$ in herbal wine 20%, $7.6{\pm}0.6$ in herbal wine 25%, $8.4{\pm}0.2$ in herbal wine 30% and $9.7{\pm}0.7$ in herbal wine 35%. As the extract concentration was increased the inhibitory activity of glutathione S-transferase were significantly increased (<0.05).
