The antioxidant activity of Persicaria thunberii (Polygonaceae) was determined by measuring the radical scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-pocrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. The methanol extract of thunbergii showed strong radical scavenging activity at an I $C_{50}$ concentration of 12.2$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, and thus fractionated by solvent extraction. The EtOAc soluble fraction was stronger than the others, and was further purified by silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, Antioxidant isorhamnetin, quercetin (2), quercitrin (3) and isoquercitrin (4) were isolated from the EtOAc soluble fraction. And isorhamnetin-3-sulfate (5) was isolated from the n-BuOH fraction. Compounds 2, 3 and 4 were found to have strong antioxidative potency.

Recently, two formulas of sulgidduk added to pine needle juice (PNJ) with various physiological activities were developed for metabolic syndrome patients in our lab. According to previous studies, cooking may alter antioxidant properties by initiating destruction, release or transformation of antioxidant compounds contained in food. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the antioxidant activities and antigenotixic effects of sulgidduk with/without PNJ and to note changes in these activities after cooking. The ingredients of sulgidduk was added on the basis of 100% rice flour as follows: conventional sulgidduk (S): 1.5% salt, 30.0% sugar; PNJ added to sulgidduk A (PS-A): 1.4% salt, 30.0% sugar, and 1.0% PNJ; PNJ added to sulgidduk B (PS-B): 1.5% salt, 21.4% sugar, and 1.4% PNJ. Ethanol and water extracts of sulgidduk were analyzed for the total phenolic content (TPC), DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH RSA), total radical-trapping antioxidant potential (TRAP), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), and antigenotoxic effect by comet assay. The ethanol extracts PS-A and PS-B showed higher TPC and antioxidant activities (DPPH RSA, TRAP, and ORAC) than did the S ethanol extract before cooking. The more PNJ was added, the higher TPC and anitoxidant activities were observed in sulgidduk (PS-A$200{\mu}M$ of $H_2O_2$. Taken together, this study suggests that sulgidduk added to 1.44% of pine needle juice may be a good option antioxidant and antigenotoxic source.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics and microbiological of simple preprocessed foods vege-ball with guava leaf powder (VB) for soup during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and preparation of standard recipe. Lightness was increased during storage, but yellowness and redness were no significantly differences during storage, except for control. Hardness of VB increased with increasing guava leaves powder springness, cohesiveness significantly as a powder addition guava leaves was lower. DPPH, ABTS compared to the control showed higher levels in VB with increasing amounts significantly increased antioxidant activity (p<0.05). According to the sensory evaluation, VB 0.1% showed higher score in term of taste, flavor, overall preference. All the VB samples showed significantly lower values for acid, peroxide and than the control. Low level of total aerobic bacteria was detected during storage (<5.00 log CFU/g). Coliforms and yeast & mold were not detected during storage in VB samples. In conclusion, the addition of 0.1% with guava leaves powder would be useful way to enhance the anitoxidant quality and sensory characteristics of preprocessed food. The estimated storage was 8 days at $4^{\circ}C$.
