We investigated the effects of bean sprouts (Glycine max), dropwort (Oenanthe javanica), and radish (Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis) extracts on alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). The extracts from three kinds of vegetables were prepared by extracting with boiling water, distilling water, and ethyl alcohol. Among extracts, boiling water extract showed the highest activating effect on ADH, respectively and distilled water extract had a greater effect on ADH activation than that of alcohol extract. The ADH facilitating effect of bean sprout extract by distilled water was significantly higher than dropwort or radish, hut the effect of the bean sprout extract by ethyl alcohol was lower than others. The facilitating effect on ADH of mixture extracts of bean sprout and dropwort were mixed at 1 : 1 mixture of boiled-water extract showed the highest effectiveness. And bean sprout extract separated below 3000 molecular weight (MW) range of extract fraction had greater ADH activity than large MW parts.

Benomyl(Methyl-1-(Butyl Carbamoyl)-Benzimidazole-2-yl-Carbamate) is widely used as pre- and post-harvest pesticide. It converts into MBC(Carbendarzime:Benzimidazole-2-yl-carbamate) and butyl-isocyanate in mild condition. In this study, three analytical methods for MBC were compared in view of detectability, correctness, and sensitivity. The first and second are HPLC analytical method employing the UV detection of MBC. Our new third method was modification of PFBB(pentafluoro-benzylbromide) derivatization method with GC-ECD & MSD. The average recoveries and detection limit of MBC in the newly modified method are 95% and $0.001{\mu}g/g$ in whole bean and bean sprouts respectively. This new method prevent pesticide analysis from misdetecting in bean and bean sprouts.
