This study examined the quality characteristics and anti-oral microbial activity of bamboo leaf jelly prepared with different 5 levels (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%) of bamboo (Phyllostachys nigra var. henonis) leaf extract. The sugar contents of bamboo leaf jelly were increased significantly by increasing the level of bamboo leaf extract. The luminance and Hunter's a values of the jelly samples increased with increasing bamboo leaf extract, but the 40% bamboo leaf jelly had the lowest Hunter's b values. The hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness increased significantly with increasing bamboo leaf extract. Among the mechanical properties, only the flavor of the jelly with 30 and 40% bamboo leaf extract were increased significantly. The extract of bamboo leaves had strong antimicrobial activity against S. mutans, S. sobriuns, P. gingivalis, and P. intermedia at a concentration of 40%. These results suggest that bamboo leaf extract can be useful in the production of high quality jelly.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the rheological characteristics of medium wheat flour mixed with bamboo leaf and lotus leaf powders. Rheological properties of the mixed flours were tested based on falling number, color, RVA, farinogram, and rheofermentometer analyses. Falling numbers increased with addition of bamboo leaf and lotus leaf powders. The L values of all mixed flours were less than that of control. The 1% mixed flour sample containing bamboo leaf and lotus leaf powders was not significantly different from 3% mixed flour. The a values of the mixed flour decreased as bamboo and lotus powders increased, whereas b values increased. Addition of bamboo leaf and lotus leaf powders to flour reduced peak viscosity, holding strength, and final viscosity. The set back values of mixed wheat flour containing bamboo leaf powder were lower than those of mixed wheat flour containing lotus leaf powder, suggesting that bamboo leaf powder suppressed retrogradation of flour compared to lotus leaf powder. In the farinogram, the water absorption and consistency of the flours containing bamboo and lotus leaf powders increased, whereas development time and stability decreased. The fermentation time of dough with lotus leaf powder was less than that of dough with bamboo leaf powder.

To investigate effects of water stress on leaf water potential, nitrate reductase activity and abscisic acid content, Paldalkong, Saealkong and Danyeobkong were subjected to water stress by polyethyene glycol(PEG, MW=6,000) in the water culture and withholding irrigation in soil culture. Leaf water potential and nitrate reductase activity decreased with increaseing of PEG concentration in the water culture. These were higher at 3rd and 5th leaf stage than at 1st leaf stage. Leaf water potential showed no significant differance among the varieties, but nitrate redutase activity was higher in Paldalkong than in Saealkong and Danyeobkong. Leaf water potential and nitrate reductase activity decreased approximately 2.2 times (-1.67 MPa/-0.75MPa) and 47%(3.1${\mu}$ mole nitrite/g.DW/hour/15.9${\mu}$ mole nitrite/g.DW/hour) to control, respectively, after 3 days from water stress treatment in the soil culture. According to increasing PEG concentration, abscisic acid content increased in the water culture and was higher at 5th leaf stage than at 1st and 3rd leaf stage. Paldalkong showed the highest abscisic acid content. Abscisic acid content increased approximately 1.7 times (9.9nmole/g.DW/5.7nmole/g.DW) compared to the control after 3 days from water stress treatment in the soil culture.

This study was conducted to determine the optimum culture conditions for inducing callus and regenerating plantlets from cultured leaf tissues of Aralia elata. Young leaf tissues(1cm) of A. elata plant were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2, 4-D and Thidiazuron. Embryogenic callus was induced along the leaf veins, more efficiently on the medium containing 1.0mg /1 Thidiazuron in 4 weeks after culture initiation. Calli were subcultured to proliferate on MS media containing 2, 4-D, Dicamba, Picloram, and Thidiazuron. Callus was better proliferated on the medium containing Dicamba than on the others.. However, callus subcultured on the medium containing Thidiazuron was more embryogenic and light green-colored, of which some showed embryoid-like structure on the surface. Hormone-free medium was more efficient to regenerate plantlets than media supplemented with Kinetin, BA, and Thidiazuron.

We investigated the quality characteristics and volatile flavor components in yenipsambab prepared with various concentrations of lotus leaf powder. Hunter's color L and a values of yenipsambab decreased with increasing content of lotus leaf powder, whereas b value increased. Moreover, addition of lotus leaf powder resulted in increased hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness compared to control. Major volatile compounds of yenipsambab were ethyl benzene, 1,3-dimethylbenzene, 1,2-dimethylbenzene, and 5-hydroxymethyldihydrofuran-2-one.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of plant growth regulators on the plant regeneration from leaf segments of Lilium callosum, L. concolor var. partheneion, and L. formosanum. Leaf segments were sectioned about 5 mm long and cultured on the basal medium (MS medium with $3\%$ sucrose and $0.8\%$ agar) under dark condition, The most effective plant regulators on harvesting more shoots from leaf culture of L. callosum were $0.2\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;BA$ and $0.5\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA$. Culturing in the basal medium with $0.2\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;BA$ and $2.0\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA$ was effective for leaf culture of L. concolor var. partheneion. The treatment of $1.0\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;BA$ and $1.0\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;NAA$ was the most effective condition for shoot harvest at the leaf culture of L. formosanum.

Bamboo leaf powder was added to Jeolpyun to increase the neutraceutical effects and storage period. The bamboo leaf powder was added to rice flour at ratios of 0, 4, 6, 8, and 10% (w/w), and they were treated with aqueous malt extract to extend storage. The Jeolpyun was stored at $20^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr, and the physical and sensory characteristics were evaluated. As a result, the crude fat, crude protein, moisture, crude ash and total dietary fiber contents in bamboo leaf powder were 4.36, 11.29, 3.37, 7.33, and 65.57%, respectively. The Hunters L, a, and b values decreased significantly as the amount of bamboo leaf powder increased; however, the a and b values increased during storage. The paste property setback values decreased with the malt extract treatment and with increasing amounts of bamboo leaf powder. In a sensory analysis, hard texture strength in the malt extract and bamboo leaf powder treatment groups was less than that in the control during storage. The Jeolpyun prepared with malt extract and no bamboo leaf powder was the most accepted by consumers. Although adding bamboo leaf powder resulted in less consumer acceptance except for the flavor attribute, adding 4% and 8% bamboo leaf powder resulted in better consumer acceptance for texture, taste, and overall acceptance than that of the control. In a microbial analysis, adding bamboo leaf powder resulted in fewer mold colonies. In conclusion, adding 4% bamboo leaf powder and malt extract to Jeolpyun improved its storage properties.

Bamboo leaf powder was added to Chiffon cake to increase its neutraceutical effects and storage periods. Specifically, 0, 7, 10 and 13% leaf powder was added to the cakes. The content of total dietary fiber in the bamboo leaf powder was 65.57%. The moisture content did not differ significantly among groups. The cake containing 10% bamboo leaf powder had the greatest volume, whereas the control group (0% bamboo leaf powder) had the lowest volume (p<0.05). The Hunter's L and a values decreased significantly as the amount of bamboo leaf powder increased. The b value of the control was lowest among the groups (p<0.05). Evaluation of the consumer acceptance of flavor revealed that the cakes containing the added bamboo leaf had greater consumer acceptance than the control. However, when the color was evaluated, the 13% group showed the lowest acceptance (p<0.05). Other factors such as texture, taste and overall acceptance did not differ significantly among groups. Additionally, the elasticity did not differ among groups, while the air cells were most uniform in the control. The strength of bamboo leaf aroma, bitter taste and aftertaste increased as the amount of bamboo leaf powder added increased. Cakes containing 10% and 13% added powder had the greatest moisture content, while the control had the lowest content (p<0.05). As in previous studies, the results of this study indicated that 10% bamboo leaf powder was the optimal level for the preparation of Chiffon cake. To evaluate the storage of cakes, the 10% group and the control were inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae and then incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 6 days. The microbial colony counts in the control group were dramatically increased after 48 hrs; however, the fungal concentration of the 10% group did not increase for 4 days. In conclusion, the addition of 10% bamboo leaf powder to Chiffon cake increased the storage time while maintaining adequate consumer acceptance.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of tofu prepared with different concentrations of lotus leaf powder. The determined values for moisture, crude ash, carbohydrate, crude protein, and crude lipid in were 2.97%, 8.09%, 65.18%, 22.83%, and 0.93%, respectively. The yield rates of the tofu samples did not differ significantly according to the level of added lotus leaf powder; however, there was a significant decrease in pH and a significant increase in acidity. The L- and a-values of samples decreased as the amount of lotus leaf powder in the formulation increased, whereas the b value increased. Furthermore, hardness significantly increased as the level of lotus leaf powder increased. In terms of overall acceptability, the preferred tofu samples were the control and that containing 0.2% lotus leaf powder.
