Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidative, collagenase and elastase activities of defatted perilla ethanol extracts. In addition, the possibility of its use as a functional cosmetic material has been studied. Methods: In order to investigate the antioxidant function of the perilla extract, electron spin resonance (ESR) was measured with a spectrometer by analyzing the scavenging ability of diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicals. Results: The antioxidant activity of DPPH free radical scavenging activity of the perilla extract was about 68% at 85 ㎍/ml, 85% at 20 ㎍/ml, 90% at 40-100 ㎍/ml, and showed antioxidant ability. The inhibitory activity of collagenase was increased to 4.1% at 20 mg/ml, 12% at 40 mg/ml and 26.7% at 100 mg/ml. The inhibitory activity increased in proportion to the concentration. The inhibitory activity of elastase was increased to 3.8% at 20 mg/ml, 15% at 40 mg/ml, 28% at 80 mg/ml and 35.7% at 100 mg/ml. Conclusions: These results suggest that the ethanol extract of perilla may inhibit the antioxidant activity and the activity of collagenase and elastase to improve the skin aging and wrinkles.

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.

Elevation of the activities of phase 2 enzymes such as quinone reductase(QR) provides protection against several types of neoplasia. In this study, we performed partial purification of QR inducer(s) from roasted and defatted perilla meal by solvent fractionation and thin layer chromatography. Cellular QR induction was most notable in chloroform fraction of roasted perilla extract, compared with other solvent fractions. QR inducer(s) was partially purified by TLC, with 0.8 of $R_f$ value in n-butanol : n-propanol : 2N-ammonium hydroxide(10 : 60 : 30). AHH-inducing activity in TLC fractions isolated from methanol extracts of roasted perilla comigrated with QR-inducing fraction, suggesting that QR and AHH are induced by the same compound. TLC fractions shown strong QR-inducing activity also had a potent antioxidative activity, suggesting that cellular QR enzyme is induced by antioxidant(s) present in roasted perilla.

The free, ester and insoluble bound phenolic acids in the extracts from defatted perilla seed flour were isolated and their antioxidative activities were evaluated in comparison with commercial synthetic antioxidants. Total phenolic content of the perilla seed was 0.75% as chlorogenic acid. Each percent ratio of the content of free, ester, and insoluble bound phenolic acid to total phenolic content was 87.5, 7.5 and 5.0% respectively. Chlorogenic acid was identified as a major phenolic acid and a small amount of caffeic acid was also identified in the free phenolic acid extract, but they were not found in soluble ester and insoluble bound phenolic extracts by two dimensional paper chromatography. Each type phenolic extract from 30g of deffated perilla flour showed antioxidant activity similar to that of BHT (0.02%, w/w) in 200g of soybean oil substrate inspite of the difference of each phenolic content.

The solubility of protein and phytate was measured at various pH's in distilled water and at various concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2\;and\;Na_2SO_3$ solutions, and then optimum condition for producing low phytate protein isolate from perilla flour was investigated. The protein solubility in water showed minimum at pH 4.0 and increased at pH higher or lower than 4.0, while phytate solubility was highest at pH 5.0 and decreased at pH higher or lower than 5.0. In NaCl solution, protein solubility was lowest between pH 3.0-4.0, while phytate solubility was high between pH 2.0-5.0 and abruptly decreased above PH 6.0. In $Na_2SO_3$ solution, protein solubility was lowest between pH 2.0-3.0 and phytate solubility showed maximum values between pH $5.0{\sim}6.0$, and it's solubility was low in 3% salt concentration at all pH ranges. In $CaCl_2$ solution, protein solubility in 3% salt concentration was relatively low at all pH ranges, and phytate solubility showed highest values between pH $2.0{\sim}3.0$ and abruptly decreased (1.0%) above pH 4.0. In order to make low phytate protein isolate, defatted perilla flour protein was extracted at pH9.0 and precipitated at pH 4.0 in 3% NaCl solution. The yield of low phytate protein isolate was 61.4% of total protein. This protein was found to contain 0.02% phytate by weight.

A potent citric acid producing strain was selected by an extensive screening test of the yeasts isolated from the various sources. These experiments were conducted to identify the selected strain and investigate the cultural conditions for citric acid production. The results obtained were as fellows: 1. The selected strain of yeast was identified to Hansenula anomala var. anomala by a taxnoomic study of Lodder. 2. The optimum conditions for citric acid production in the basal medium containing 10% glucose were: temperature $30^{\circ}C$, the concentration of $CaCO_3$ 3% and the velocity of oscillation 110 oscills/min. 3. As a nitrogen source ol the basal medium $NH_4Cl(0.1%)$ was the most effective for citric acid production. Organic nitrogen sources such as peptone were adequate for growth of the strain but not for citric acid production. 4. The most effective concentration of glucose was 10% in yield ratio of citric acid from sugar. 5. The addition of defatted rape seed, defatted perilla or defatted rice bran to the medium was effective for citric acid production. When 5% extract solution of defatted rape seed was added, the citric acid production was increased as much as 40% as compared with the case of adding yeast extract(0.2%). 6. The most effective concentration of $KH_2PO_4$ and $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ in the medium(for citric acid Production) was 0.05% and 0.025% respectively. 7. Under the optimum cultural conditions, the growth of the strain was continued up to 5 days and the increase of citric acid production was continued up to 6 days, showing the yield ratio of 46% to glucose.

To investigate nutritive values of a feed fermented with basidiomycetes, among the isolated strains, Lyophyllum decastes (Fr.) Sing. was found with the greatest enzyme productivity and rapid mycelial growth in rice straw medium. Optimum temperature, pH and moisture content for mycelial growth and enzyme production of the strain were $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C,\;pH\;4.0{\sim}7.0\;and\;70{\sim}75\;%$, respectively. Fifteen days of culture were required for the highest enzyme productivity. Among the sub-materials added, $30{\sim}40\;%$ of rice bran and $10{\sim}20\;%$ of defatted perilla seeds were effective for the enzyme production, but caused a reduced mycelial growth. The greatest effect of an addition of inorganic salts was obtained with $0.36{\sim}0.72\;%\;of\;(NH_4)_2HPO_4$. When 40 mesh or smaller rice straw and steam treatment at $0.5\;kg/cm^2$ were used, the mycelial growth decreased, whereas the enzyme production increased. The mycelial growth and enzyme production increased when $Ca(OH)_2$ was used as the alkali treatment, but decreased with increasing concentration of NaOH. As the fermentation proceeded, the amounts of ash, reducing sugar and total nitrogen increased, but cellulose, lignin and pentosan decreased. When the rice straw was treated with alkali, the amounts of ash, total nitrogen and lignin decreased, but reducing sugar and cellulose increased. At higher NaOH concentration, the variation become greater. The in vitro dry matter digestibility of the products increased from 55.03 % at the beginning of the fermentation to 62.72 % at 45 days after fermentation. The most effective alkali treatment on the digestibility of rice straw was KOH followed by NaOH. However, the digestibility increased with increasing concentration of NaOH. The digestibility of pretreated with alkali increased after fermentation as well.
