We prepared extracts from Ulmus davidiana (root, Korean source; URK) and Ulmus davidiana (bark, Korean source; UBK). URK extracts obtained with all tested solvents showed the highest antioxidant effects on fish oils. Both treatments containing 0.1% (v/v) extract from URK and UBK each showed that peroxide values of 30 meq/kg were maintained for 6 h and levels of 40 meq/kg were apparent for up to 18 h, indicating that antioxidative activity seemed to sustain during all tested time periods. Compared with commercial antioxidants, butanol and methanol extracts diluted to 0.05% (v/v) had similar antioxidative effects. Water and butanol UBK extracts diluted to 0.1% (v/v) both showed the highest antioxidative activities. After addition of metal ions, methanol and butanol URK extracts diluted to 0.1% (v/v) showed enhanced antioxidative activity. UBK ethanol extracts displayed superior antioxidative activity and a constant peroxide value throughout storage. However, in the case of Perilla oil, $\alpha$-tocopherol which is known as a natural antioxidant did not show any antioxidative activity except in the BHT. Methanol and butanol URK extracts diluted to 0.2% (v/v) showed superior antioxidative activities throughout the experiment. A methanolic UBK extract (0.2%, v/v) also had a similarly increased antioxidative effect. In tests involving addition of metal ions to all extracts, the methanolic UBK extract (0.2%, v/v) showed excellent antioxidative activity. When lard was tested, antioxidant levels did not differ significantly among extracts prepared using four different solvents at either 0.05% or 0.1% concentrations (both v/v). Addition of metal ions at levels of 0.05% or 0.1% (w/v) to these extracts had no significant additive effect on oxidation.

In this study, we investigated the in vivo effect by intake of the irradiated foods such as mackerel and sesame seed which are high in unsaturated fatty acid through TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive subtance) and the tissue pathological and genotoxicological test. Thirty two ICR mice are divided into four groups, one non-irradiated (control) group and three irradiated (5, 10, 20 kGy, respectively) groups. Sesame seed and pulverized mackerel in modified AIN93M diet were mixed together then divided into four identical parts. Three parts of them were irradiated by doses of 5, 10, and 20 kGy. These experimental diet were fed to each group for 4, 8 and] 6 weeks. The results of the study were as follows: No significant differences in weight gain were found in each group. Peroxide value of the irradiated diet was higher than that of the non-radiated one and also increased according to the storage period. TBA values in plasma, liver, kidney and Peyer's patch were not significantly different among 4 groups. DNA% in tail, tail length (TL) and tail moment (TM) values of the blood lymphocyte in 4, 8 and 16 week groups and the liver in 16 week group were much measured over the control DNA % in tail of kidney of 8 week group was significantly than the control and TL and TM of 8 week and TM of 16 week groups showed a tendency of higher values. By Peyer's DNA % in tail of 8 week group, DNA % in tail and TM of 16 week groups increased significantly over the control, Ultrastructural examination shows myeline figures and swollen mitochondria in parietal cells and intestinal epithelial cells of 8 and 16 weeks groups. After this study, we need further investigations on the safety of highly consumed foods which contain high contents of unsaturated fatty acid, largely imported and which are possible to be irradiated.

Water extract, and free-, ester- and insoluble phenolic acids were extracted from wormwoods. The extracts were then dissolved in equal amounts of an edible soybean oil, and the resulting substrates, portion of the soybean oil (control), 0.02% BHA and 0.02% BHT were stored in incubator at $45^{\circ}C{\pm}1.0^{\circ}C$ for 32days. Peroxide values (POV) and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values of control and the substrates were determined during th9 storage period. The POV of control, BHA, BHT and six substrates which were contained water extracts 0.5%, 1% and 1.5%, and free-, ester- and insoluble phenolic acids after 24days of storage were 77, 43, 17, 38, 26, 34, 45, 28 and 16m mole/kg oil respectively, The TBA values after 32days of storage were 0.278, 0.170, 0.070, 0.200, 0.178, 0.235, 0.167, 0.136, 0.062, respectively, It was found that the antioxidant activity in water extracts was highest in water 1 (the substrates containing water extracts 1%). It was also found that antioxidant activities in the phenolic acids were decreased in the following order ; insoluble phenolic acids>ester form>free phenolic acids. The phenolic acids separated and tentatively identified by Gas chromatography were catechol, vanillin, umbelliferone, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid caffeic acid, protocatechuic acid, p-hydroxy benzoic acid and syringic acid.

This study was carried to investigate the changes in physical and chemical properties of Yukwa during preparation with addition of antioxidants and to develop its storage condition. Antioxidants (tocopherol and Oxyfos) were used in syrup coating and the packaging materials used were PET/EVOH $(16\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P1 and PET/EVOH $(24\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P2 (YOP1: P1 with Oxyfos, YOP2 : P2 with Oxyfos, YTP1 : P1 with tocopherol, YTP2 : P2 with tocopherol). Color values measured for Yukwa showed that L values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were changed little during storage while a and b values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were slightly decreased. Hardness and chewiness in textural properties were also decreased during storage. Yukwa packed in YOPl and YOP2 maintained less than 40 in peroxide value during for 12 weeks of storage period. The major fatty acid composition of frying oil were linoleic acid (54.2%), oleic acid (23.4%), palmitic acid (11.3%), linolenic acid (6.5%) and stearic acid (4.6%). There was no difference in composition of fatty acid during storage. Sensory evaluation (Yukwa odor and rancid odor) showed very similar results with determined by electronic nose. YTP1 and YTP2 had maintained sensory characteristics of Yukwa during 10 weeks storage.

The antioxidative and antimicrobial activities were determined on the mushroom (Sarcodon aspratus) extracts in order to find out new food functional components. The antioxidative activities of water and ethanol extracts from the Sarcodon aspratus were measured by peroxide values (POV), electron-donating ability (EDA) using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydroxyl (DPPH), nitrite-scavenging ability and superoxide dismutase-like activity (SODA) by pyrogallol. The antioxidative activity of the ethanol extract measured by POV was higher than those of the water extract, BHT, and ${\alpha}-tocopherol$. The EDA of the water extract and ethanol extract using DPPH showed the highest values of 76.94% and 73.06%, respectively. The nitrite-scavenging abilities (pH 1.2, 1,000 ppm) of the water and ethanol extracts were 72.61% and 62.69%, respectively, and the nitrite-scavenging ability of the water extract was higher than that of the ethanol extract in all pH values. The SODA of the ethanol extract was higher than that of the water extract. The Sarcodon aspratus extracts had antimicrobial effects on Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus.

The antioxidant activity of ethanol-extracts of defatted soybean, sesame, and perilla flours was compared with that of 0.02% BHT in a soybean oil-water emulsion system. The emulsion substrates and control were stored at $46.0{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ for 25 days. The peroxide and TBA values of the substrates and control were determined regularly. The activity of the oilseed flour extracts and BHT was estimated by comparing the POV development of the substrates with that of the control. The POVs of the substrates containing the soybean, sesame, and perilla flour extracts and BHT and that of the control after 25 day storage were respectively $43.3{\pm}0.1,\;22.6{\pm}0.7,\;21.5{\pm}0.2,\;38.6{\pm}0.4,\;and\;80.1{\pm}0.8$. The TBA values after 20 day storage were $0.91{\pm}0.05,\;0.67{\pm}0.02,\;0.68{\pm}0.01,\;0.38{\pm}0.01,\;and\;0.62{\pm}0.01$ The soybean, sesame, and perilla flour extracts exhibited considerable antioxidant activity in the oil-water emulsion system. The activity of the sesame and perilla flour extracts was far stronger than that of 0.02% BHT in the emulsion system. The abnormally high TBA values of the oilseed flour extracts in the present study might be attributed to the interference of some carbonyl compounds in the extracts in the TBA value determination.

Effects of packaging material and oxygen absorbant on physical and chemical properties of Yukwu were studied during storage to develop packaging conditions. The packaging materials used were PET/EVOH $(16\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P1 and PET/EVOH $(24\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P2 with or without oxygen absorbent (E1A : P1 and E2A : P2 for w/ $O_2$, absorbent, E1EA : P1 and E2EA : P2 for w/o $O_2$, absorbent). Color values for Yukwu indicated that L values of E1A, E1EA, E2A and E2EA were decreased during storage while those b values were increased. Hardness and chewiness of Yukwa were generally decreased, however those of E1A and E1EA were rather increased after 6 weeks of storage. Acid value of E2A had maintained less than 2.0 during 12 weeks of storage. E1A, E2A had the below of 20 in peroxide during 12 weeks. Aroma data by using electronic nose showed that there was no difference after 6 week storage time in different packaging materials. Sensory evaluation (Yukwa odor and rancid odor) showed very similar results with electronic nose one. E2A had the highest value of overall acceptability for sensory evaluation. Hardness and cheweness in physical measurement results had the highest correlation with hardness, crispness, overall-acceptability in sensory evaluation results.

The changes of the physico-chemical properties and fatty acid compositions of cooked soybean oil, 30 min at $180{\pm}5^{\circ}C$, were investigated to compare the antixidative effects of some antioxidants such as BHA, ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ and sesamol according to various storage conditions(room temperature, room temperature with a air tight in the dark and low temperature with air tight) for 4 weeks. The order of antioxidative effects according to different storage conditions was low temperature with air tight, room temperature with air tight in the dark and room temperature. Acid values, peroxide values and carbonyl values of soybean oil stored under low temperature with air tight after ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ treatment were similar to those of soybean oil stored under room temperature after BHA treatment. The relative contents of linoleic acid and linolenic acid decreased during storage, wheras those of oleic acid and palmitic acid increased. The contents of linoleic acid in soybean oil treated with ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ and BHA under low temperature with air tight storage were $53.61{\sim}50.29%$ and $53.78{\sim}50.68%$, respectively. These contents were very high in comparison with those in untreated oil under room temperature storage, $52.09{\sim}43.96%$.

This study was conducted to determine the antioxidant activity of paprika in a lard model system. The effect of paprika (ground fresh paprika (FP) $3\%$, $50^{\circ}C$ far-infrared ray dried Paprika Powder (PP) $3\%$ and $5\%$) on the inhibition of lipid oxidation in lard was examined by pH, peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value and fatty acid composition during 8 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. With paprika, POV and TBA values in lipid oxidation of lard were significantly lower than those of the control without paprika. Especially, in lard with FP $3\%$, there was hardly any change of lipid oxidation values such as POV, TBA values and destruction of unsaturated fatty acid inhibiting lipid oxidation. Heating of paprika during far-infrared ray drying decreased the inhibition effect on lipid oxidation in the lard model system probably due to loss of antioxidant substances, such as vitamin C, polyphenols and carotenoids including capsanthin, by heating. Therefore, FP containing a hish amount of antioxidant substance could be used as a good antioxidant in Pork Products containing large amounts of lard.

Deep-fried instant noodle was prepared on a laboratory scale (150 units). A part of the noodle was packed in gas-proof laminated film bags with a small package of an oxygen scavenger made from Fe-powder and a 150 ml of air in each bag(Sample 1). Another part was packed in ordinary laminated film bags (Control), and the rest was vacuum-packed (74 mmHg) in the gas-proof film bags (Sample 2). All samples were placed in an incubator kept at $45.0{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ for 45 days. Oxygen-removing power of the scavenger, and peroxide and thiobarbituric acid values of the samples were determined regulary. The results of the study are as follows: 1. The residual oxygen concentration of the bags in Sample 1 decreased from the original 21% to less than 0. 5% after 48 hr. 2. POVs of Control, Samples 1 and 2 after 45 days were $12.4{\pm}0.4$, $5.7{\pm}0.2$ and $6.8{\pm}0.1\;meq/㎏$ fat respectively. It was noteworthy that the POV of Sample 1 did not change significantly during the storage period. The scavenger seemed very effective in retarding the POV development of Sample 1. 3. TBA values of Control, Sample 1 and 2 after 45 days were $1.31{\pm}0.04$, $0.60{\pm}0.04$, and $0.72{\pm}0.07$. As in the case of POVs, the samples packed with the scavengers exhibited consistently smaller TBA values than the vacuum-packed samples in later stages of the storage period.
