Objectives : The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of antioxidation related to aging of Cheongeumyeonsudan which is written on Dongui-bogam experimentally. Method : 14 weeks aged SD albino rats were separated into uncontrolled group, controlled group and CGY group. As controlled and CGY groups were induced aging by subcutaneous injection of D-galactose, at the same time we administered the extract of Cheongeumyeonsudan to CGY group for 6 weeks. After then we drew blood from each group, and took measurements; the activity of SOD, GSH-px, catalase in erythrocytes, TBARS value, concentration of total lipid, tryglycende, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol in blood plasma. Results : The activities of SOD, GSH-px in erythrocytes were significantly increased in the CGY group compared with control group. The activity of catalase showed a tendency to increase, but it was nor remarkable. The concentration of total lipid, the values of TBARS and total cholesterol was significantly decreased in the CGY group compared with control group, and the concentration of plasma HDL-cholesterol was not remarkable. The concentration of tryglycende in plasma showed a tendency to decreased. Conclusions : it is suggested that Cheongeumyeonsudan decreased the activities of free radical, the concentration of lipid in plasma and generate enzyme which form lipid peroxide.

Changes in physicochemical and microbiological properties of seafood bun containing kimchi were investgated during storage at 20$^{\circ}C$. pH of seafood bun tended to decrease and titratable acidity tended to increase during storage, as the kimrhi added more the pH was higher and titratable was lower. Acidity of seafood bun tended to increase during storage, the acidity was lower in seafood added kimchi than in control. Peroxide value of seafood bun added kimchi was lower than that of control, the value decreased with kimchi content. VBN and TBA values increased during storage, as the kimchi added more the value was lower. Viable colony and E. coli count significantly increased during 2 days of storage and tended to slightly increase afterward. The seafood bun added 20% kimchi obtained higher scores than other samples.

Antioxidative effects of several solvents extracts of cactus Cheonnyuncho (Opuntia humifusa) grown in Korea were investigated. Because 70% ethanol extract showed relatively high antioxidative activity and extraction yield, it was sequentially fractionated with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water, Ethyl acetate fraction showed highest scavenging activity against free radical DPPH. Antioxidative activity of ethyl acetate fraction determined based on acid and peroxide values under accelerated oxidation condition of lard was similar to that of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol, but slightly lower than that of BHA. Similar results were observed using TBA method during peroxidation of linoleic acid.

Extract from forty four species of natural plants in Korea were obtained. Each extinct (1,000 ppm) was added into fish oil and their antioxidative activities were screened by rancimat, From the results, seven species including Brassica juncea, Solanum tuberosum, Capsella bursa, Ulums davidiana, Broussonetia kazinoki, Oenanthe javanica, and Rhus chinensis were selected due to their relatively prolonged induction periods. When the concentration (100 - 1,000 ppm) of the selected extract was considered, the most prolonged induction period was observed from Solanum tuberosum throughout the studied concentrations, suggesting that its extinct showed the strongest antioxidative activity against fish oil. In addition, peroxide value (POV) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value were considered at $60^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. Among the selected extract, extract from Solanum tuberosum showed the lout POV while the extract from Brassica juncea var showed the least TBARS values after 5 days. Also, the free radical scavenging effect against DPPH radical were studied with the selected extract, showing that the extract from Rhus chinensis was found to be the most effective.

Free radical-initiated copolymerizations of diethyl ${\alpha}$-phenylvinyl phospbate (DEPVP) with acrylonitrile (AN) and maleic anhydride (MAnh) were studied. The monomer reactivity ratios for AN/DEPVP pair, determined at $70^{\circ}C$ in bulk using benzoyl peroxide as an initiator, were;$ r_1(AN) = 0.77, r_2(DEPVP) = 0.002$. The values of the Alfrey-Price constants, Q and e, for DEPVP were calculated to be 0.012 and -1.35, respectively. Free radical-initiated copolymerization of MAnh/DEPVP pair in chloroform at $70^{\circ}C$ produced 1 : 1 alternating copolymers regardless monomer feed composition with the highest copolymerization rate at the molar ratio of MAnh : DEPVP = 7 : 3. The equilibrium constant of a charge-transfer complex between DEPVP and MAnh in deutrated chloroform, determinated at room temperature by transformed Benesi-Hildebrand NMR method, was 0.085 l/mol. The reduced viscosity of copolymers of AN/DEPVP pair decreased as the content of DEPVP units increased, while that of MAnh/DEPVP pair remained more or less constant.

The free radical initiated copolymerization of vinyl acetate (VAc) and bis(${\beta}$-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate (BCVP) was studied. The monomer reactivity ratios for the monomer pair determined at $50^{\circ{C$ using benzoyl peroxide as an initiator are: $r_1 (VAc) = 0.33,\;r_2 (BCVP) = 0.47$ The values of Alfrey-Price's Q and e for the bis(${\beta}$-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate were calculated to be 0.06 and 1.1, respectively. The statistical analyses for the monomer sequence distribution and the mean sequence length show that the copolymer formed from these two monomers are of fairly alternating tendency. Differential thermal analysis showed that thermal stability of the copolymers decreases as the content of BCVP in the copolymer increases.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of mugwort powder on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Maejakgwa. Maejakgwa were prepared with mugwort powder at levels 0%, 1%, 3% and 5% ($60{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, 14 days). The lightness, redness, and yellowness values of Maejakgwa significantly reduced depending on mugwort powder. The hardness of Maejakgwa was decreased with the increase of storage period and increased with the increase of mugwort powder. In the sensory evaluations, the Maejakgwa prepared with 3% added mugwort powder received higher acceptance scores for the properties of color, taste, hardness, crispiness, adhesiveness and overall acceptability. As the mugwort powder content increased, acid value and peroxide value were decreased. With the increase of storage period, acid value and peroxide value of all sample increased but growth rate of these values decreased with the addition of the mugwort powder. DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity was improved significantly via the addition of mugwort powder and decreased as storage period increased. During storage period, Maejakgwa with mugwort powder showed a stronger antimicrobial effect in yeasts and molds than in total aerobic bacteria. Coliform bacteria were not detected in all samples. Also the antimicrobial activity was increased with the addition of the mugwort powder and decreased as storage period increased. The results show that addition of the mugwort powder to foods with fat such as Maejakgwa would be a useful way to enhance the antioxidant quality, sensory characteristics and shelf life.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of extraction methods on the physicochemical characteristics using seed oil of wild green tea (Camellia sinensis). When the solvent extraction method after grinding and steam treatment (SGS) was used for oil extraction, the yield was highest. The specific gravity was a range of $0.91{\sim}0.94g/cm^{3}$ irrespective of extraction methods of oil. However, the light in the solvent extraction method after grinding (SG), the red in the pressure extraction method after grinding and roasting treatment (PGR), and the yellow in SG method were highest. Among various fatty acids, the concentrations of C16 : 0, C18 : 1 and C18 : 2 were highest, irrespective of extraction methods. Especially, the C16 : 0 concentration was in the order of SG (34.78%), SGS (23.04%), and PRGS method (23.01%), the C18 : 1 concentration was in the order of PGR (43.35%), SGS (42.7%), SG method (39.0%), and in the case of C18 : 2, it was in order of PGR (23.15%), SGS (23.03%), and SG method (15.01%). The saturated fatty acid concentration was in the order of SG (40.59%), PGR (31.61%), and SGS method (30.1%). On the other hand, in the case of the unsaturated fatty acid, it was in the order of SGS (69.9%), PGR (68.39%), and SG method (59.41%). The acid values in the SGS and SG method after 10 days of storage were in the range of 6~8 mgKOH/g. However, in the case of PGR method, it was increased with the increase of storage time and was 49.3 mgKOH/g after 60 days. The peroxide values in the SGS and SG method were in the range of 60~100 mEq/g from 10 to 60 days of storage. On the other hand, when the storage time was increased from 10 to 30 days, it was sharply increased from 60 to 240 mEq/g. The rancidity was in the order of $Fe^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Cr^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$, irrespective of extraction methods. Especially, when butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) was added into oil containing 1.0 ppm of <$Fe^{2+}$, the peroxide value was decreased from 539.4 to 216.6%. These results show that seed oil of Camellia sinensis grown in Iksan can be applied as sources for cosmetics, detergents, food, and pharmaceuticals.

Changes in lipid components of pollack meat during sun-drying and effects of NaCl on lipid oxidation were examined. TBA values and peroxide values of sun dried pollack(SD), salted and sun dried pollack (SS) were 0.142 and 14.8 meq/kg, 0.226 and 20.0 meq/kg after sun-drying, respectively. Raw pollack contained 6.12% total lipid consisted of 2.42% neutral lipid(NL) and 3.70% phospholipid(PL) as dry basis, and there were $47{\sim}65%$ decrease in PL content during sun-drying. The NL class of raw pollack mainly consisted of triglyceride(TG), sterol(ST)+diglyceride(DG), hydrocarbon(HC)+sterol ester(SE), and main components in PL class were phosphatidylcholine(PC), phosphatidylethanolamlne(PE) and phosphatidylserine(PS). The contents of TG, ST+DG, PC and PE decreased, while those of free fatty acid, HC+SE, sphingomyelin and lysophosphatidylcholine increased markedly during sun-drying. The major fatty acids of TL in raw pollack, PD and SD samples were generally 22:6, 16:0, 20:5, 18:1 and 18:3; 20:5 decreased markedly during sun-drying, while saturates and monoenes such as 16:0, 18:0 and 18:1 increased slightly. And remaining ratios of polyunsaturated fatty acids of TL, NL and PL in SD and SS samples were 81.1%, 92.5%. 73.3%, and 74.6%, 74.1%, 45.4%, respectively. The results of changes in lipid components during sun-drying showed that sodium chloride catalyzed the lipid oxidation of pollack meat during drying processing.

The current study examined the effects of radish loaves powder on hepatic antioxidative system in rats fed high-cholesterol diet. Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 100$\pm$10 g were randomly assigned to normal group (N group), normal diet with 5$\%$ radish leaves powder supplemented group (NR group) and high-cholesterol groups, which were sub-divided into radish leaves powder free diet group (HC group) and 2.5$\%$ (HRL group), 5$\%$ (HRM group), 10$\%$ (HRH group) radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic super oxide dimutase activity was no significant differences. Hepatic glutathione peroxidase activity was sig-nificantly increased in 5$\%$, 10$\%$ radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic hydrogen peroxide contents in cytosol were no significantly differences Hepatic hydrogen peroxide contents in mitochondria were sig-nificantly reduced in radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic superoxide radical contents in mi-crosome were significantly reduced in radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic superoxide radical contents in mitochondria were significantly reduced in 5$\%$, 10$\%$ radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic TBARS values were significantly reduced in 5$\%$, 10$\%$ radish leaves powder supplemented groups. Hepatic lipofuscin contents were no significant difference in high-cholesterol groups. Hepatic carbonyl values were significantly reduced in 5$\%$, 10$\%$ radish leaves powder supplemented groups among high-cholesterol groups. The results indicate that radish leaves may reduce oxidative damage by activating antioxidative de-fense system of liver in rats fed high-cholesterol diets.
