In order to isolate antioxigenic substrates, the browning reaction products of xylose and various amino acids were analysed by TLC and dialysis. Rf values of browning reaction products of xylose and hydrophobic amino acids separated on silica gel TLC plate were shown in the range of 0.38 to 0.56 and that of basic amino acids was around 0.2. Browning reaction products made from xylose and Trp were separated on TLC into four bands with Rf values of 0.25, 0.55, 0.81 and 0.91 respectively. Among these the bands with Rf values of 0.25 and 0.55 appeared having strong antioxidant activity. The band of Rf 0.55 which showed the highest activity was positive to Prochazka reagent and had an absorption maximum at 275 nm. In dialysis of the xylose-Trp browning reaction products, the undialysed fraction (inner solution) was repsponsible to the antioxidant activity, which was separated into two bands with Rf values of 0.25 and 0.55 on TLC. The inner fractions of the browning products of xylose and His or Arg were also apparent in antioxdant activity.

In order to isolate and clarify the antioxygenic substances from the browning reaction products, the antioxidant activity of various amino acids and their browning reaction products were measured when they were reacted with xylose. Among nonpolar amino acids Met and Trp appeared to have stronger antioxidant effect than others. Most of polar and basic amino acids, however, did not have antioxidant activity. Ser and Cys showed a rather slight prooxidant effect. The browning reaction products of Trp and His had a higher level of antioxidant activity than that they were reacted as free amino acids. But the browning product of Met did not show the antioxidant activity. When all amino acids were divided on their polar characteristics, the higher optical density of the browning reaction products showed, the stronger antioxidant activity revealed.

Antimutagenicity profiles of the enzymatic browning reaction products(EBRP) were investigated. The rec-assay with Bacillus subtilis strains $H17(rec^+)$ and $M45(rec^-)$ was carried out using their spores. The biological activities were evaluated for seven different enzymatic browning reaction products, which resulted from the reactions of seven polyphenols with polyphenol oxidase isolated from Ginkgo biloba leaves. In the spore $rec^-$ assay, most of the polyphenolic compounds tested were positive, whereas their enzymatic browning reaction products were tested negative. The mutagenicity of enzymic browning mixtures of the polyphenols and the enzymes obtained from Ginkgo biloba leaves showed negative results in the mutagenicity test using Bacillus subtilis strains $H17(rec^+)$ and $M45(rec^-)$. In the case where polyphenol oxidase inhibitors were added in the enzymatic reaction mixtures with polyphenols, the polyphenols showed mutagenic effect in the spore $rec^-$ assay. This suggests that the activity of polyphenol oxidase is decreased.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the browning reactions of fish oil-amino acid model system and the properties of browning products. The lysine was added to the hair tail fish and mackerel oil, and incubated at $40^{\circ}C$ for 178 hours. Browning was rapidly developed with the begining of decline in PoV and CoV and a remarkable decrease in such polyunsaturated fatty acids as $C_{20:5},\;C_{22:5},\;C_{22:6}$ compared with the other fatty acids, was resulted. And among the polyenoic acids the role of $C_{22:6}$ was considered to come first as appeared in the test with authentic samples. In the water soluble fraction of the browning products obtained from the fish meat or the lysine added fish oil, some antioxidation activity was detected. But in the liposoluble fraction which covers most of the browning reactions in the fish meat, little antioxidation activity was detected. And all of the browning products provided in this experiment shelved very low reducing activity.

Lipid oxidation and browning during fermentation of domestic Meju and Doenjang were examined in order to elucidate the antioxidative effects of browning products and phenol compounds from Meju and Doenjang. Peroxide values of lipids from Meju were detectable and slightly increased until 3 weeks of fermentation, but started to be decreased after 3 weeks of fermentation and notdetectable after 6 weeks. Peroxides were not detected in Doenjang during the whole fermentation, but started to be decreased after 3 weeks of period of 22 weeks fermentation. Carbonyl value were increased during the whole period of Meju fermentation, but started to be decreased at the early stage of Doenjang fermentation. Hydrophilic fraction of browning products from Meju was much higher than lipophilic fraction and the former fraction was dramatically increased at the early stage of the fermentation. But the both fractions maintained high values during Doenjang fermentation. Hydrophilic browning products and phenol and phenol compound in Meju showed strong antioxidative against linoleic acid.

The mutagenicity and desmutagenicity on enzymatic browning reaction products which obtained from prunes salicina (yellow) enzyme and polyphenol compounds were carried out. In the rec-assay on Bacillus subtilis strains H17 and M45, the enzymatic browning reaction products of pyrogallol, hydroxyhydroquinone, 3,4-dihydroxytoluene and catechol of $10^{-2}M$ did not showed mutagenicity. In the effects of various metal ions on the rec-assay, the enzymatic browning reaction products of pyrogallol showed mutagenic activity by $Fe^{3+},\;Mn^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;Ni^{2+}$ and $Al^{3+}$. In the enzymatic browning reaction products of hydroxyhydroquinone, $Cu^{2+},\;Mn^{2+}$ and $Pb^{2+}$ were effected in mutagenic action and the enzymatic browning reaction products of catechol was effected in mutagenic action by $Mn^{2+}$. In the DNA-breaking action of enzymatic browning reaction products of pyrogallol, hydroxyhydroquinone, 3,4-dihyroxytoluene and catechol did not show, DNA-breaking action.

The study was carried out to compare the relation between the color intensity and antioxidant activity of caramelization products using xylose(XY), glucose(GL). sucrose(SU), glucose＋citric acid(GLCA), glucose＋sodium citrate(GLSC), heated at 80, 120 and 140$\^{C}$ for 24hrs, respectively. The color intensity(absorbance at 490nm) of the browning mixtures increased as the browning temperature and time increased. But the degrees of color intensity of SU and GLCA changed very little. The hydrogen donating ability(HDA) of browning reaction products was generally enhanced as the browning temperature and time increased. When browning mixtures were heated at 80$\^{C}$, the HDA of GLGC was the highest, but the HDA of GLSC was the highest when heated at 120 and 140$\^{C}$. The antioxidant activities for the corn oil substrate containing the anhydrous ethanol extracts from the browning mixtures was inferior to that of SU, but was superior to that of GLCA. The relations among the color intensity, the antioxidant activity, and the hydrogen donating ability(HDA, reducing power) of the browning reaction mixtures were as follows: As the color intensity increased, the antioxidant activity decreased. The correlation coefficient of the color intensity and the antioxidant activity by regression equation was -0.73 ∼ -0.82. As the reducing power increased, the antioxidant activity decreased. The correlation coefficient between the reducing power and the antioxidant activity by regression equation was -0.98 ∼ -0.99. Therefore, the antioxidant activity of browning reaction mixtures seemed not correlated with the color intensity and the reducing power.

The objective of this study was to investigate the enolization reaction and the antioxidant activity of caramelization products (CPs) obtained by caramelization browning of glucose and fructose solutions prepared at a pH ranging from 7.0 to 12.0 at varying temperatures ($80-180^{\circ}C$). The degradation of sugars rapidly increased at a high alkaline pH (10.0-12.0), and fructose degraded more rapidly than glucose (p<0.05). As the pH increased, the degree of sugar enolization was higher in fructose than in glucose. Browning and the formation of intermediate degradation products increased with the increase in heating temperatures. The browning development was dependent upon the type of sugar, and it was generally higher at alkaline pH than at neutral pH. The reducing power and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity of the CPs increased with the increase in browning and formation of large amounts of intermediates. Therefore, the CPs with pronounced antioxidant activity can be prepared by heating fructose or glucose solutions that have a very alkaline pH to high temperatures.
