Toxic effert of water extract from leaves of Pinus rigida and some phenolic compounds on the seeds germination of Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis Makino has been studied. There was little difference of germination percentage among the pH value of leaf extract (pH3~9). The germination percentage drastically with increased concentration level of leaf extract at about 60 percent. Seeds gemination of Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis Makino inhibited severely by caffeic acid, ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid at M, but the germination percentage was higher than that of the control group in vanillic acid. In electrophoresis, there was no differences at earlier seedling stage of protein band between allelochemical treated and non-treated group, but in late stage, two protein band near 58kd and 27kd did not appeared in the toxic affected group. In case of caffeic acid treatment, two protein band near 58kd and 27kd did not found at late stage too.

A tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum cv. Naomi F1) juice was separated into ascorbate and phenolic portions using a Sep-pak $C_{18}$ cartridge, and its each portion was tested for inhibition of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation. Ascorbate and phenolic portions of tomato juice inhibited NDMA formation by $81.37{\pm}0.25%$ and $72.03{\pm}0.25%$, respectively. The phenolic portion was further fractionated by prep-HPLC and inhibitory effects of NDMA formation by 4 fractions $(1{\sim}4)$ from tomato juice was tested under the different pH conditions (pH 1.2 and 4.2). Fraction 2 inhibited NDMA formation by $50.10{\pm}0.46%$ (pH 1.2) and $64.30{\pm}0.20%$ (pH 4.2), respectively. Fraction 2 was further separated into 4 subfractions $(2a{\sim}2d)$. Subfraction 2b especially inhibited NDMA formation by $70.62{\pm}0.45%$ (pH 1.2) and $75.30{\pm}0.45%$ (pH 4.2). This subfraction was confirmed o-coumaric acid through the analysis of GC-Mass spectrum, $^1H-NMR$ and $^{13}C-NMR$.

The effects of phenolic acids on the physical properties of wheat flour extrudate were investigated. Ferulic acid, fumaric acid, and p-coumaric acid were mixed with hard wheat flour, respectively, and extruded under a twin screw extruder. We found that by adding the phenolic acids, longitudinal expansion at the die increased, textural hardness decreased, and the water absorption capacity of the extrudate decreased. The results showed that the addition of phenolic acids produced a softer textured, more longitudinally puffed and hydrophobic extrudate compared to the control extrudate. Moreover, the addition of phenolic acids did not significantly affect the color of the extrudate: oxidative browning of the phenolic acids was not observed, due to inactivation of the browning enzymes under the hot temperature and reduced oxygen conditions of the extrusion process.

The changes of phenolics in Korean apple(Fuji) during maturation were analyzed by HPLC and spec-tropotometry. The phenolics were separated through C18 Sep-Pak cartridge in series. Chlorogenic acid caffeic acid p-coumaric acid ferulic acid and ($\pm$)-catethin were indentified by the direct comparison with authentics on HPLC. The total amounts of phenolics were determined by Folin-Dennis's method. The amounts ranged from 70.19mg% to 97.57mg% of wet basis. The concentration of phenolics in apple decreased during the early stage of development and then remained relatively constant during matu-ration .

The bark of P. alba × glandulosa, P. euramericana and P. nigra × maximounczii F₁, several Populus trees, were collected, extracted with acetone-H₂O(7:3, v/v), fractionated with hexane, chloroform and ethylacetate, and freeze dried to give some dark brown powder. Each fraction of the powder was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column using a series of aqueous methanol and ethanol-hexane mixture as eluents and then identified by thin layer chromatography using TBA and 6% acetic acid as developing solvents. The structures of the isolated compounds were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C and 2D-NMR tools including mass spectrometry. Most of the compounds were flavonoids and salicin derivatives as follows: (+)-catechin, taxifolin, aromadendrin, eriodictyol, naringenin, sakuranetin, sakuranetin-5-O-𝛽-D-glucopyranoside, neosaturanin, salireposide, p-coumaric acid, and aesculin from P. alba × glandulosa, (+)-catechin, salireposide, populoside and salicortin from P. euramericana and (+)-catechin, quercetin, padmatin, salireposide, populoside and salicortin from P. nigra × maximounczii F₁.

Response surface methodology was employed to optimize extraction conditions for finding the maximizing the functional properties of roasted Pleurotus eryngii. Based on the central composite design, independent variables were ethanol concentration ($0{\sim}100%$), extraction time ($1{\sim}9$ min) and microwave power ($25{\sim}125$ W). Soluble solid content, electron donating ability and nitrite-scavenging ability were mainly affected by ethanol concentration, but ACE inhibition activity was largely affected by extraction time. The optimum ranges of extraction conditions resulting from superimposing the response surface were predicted to be ethanol concentration ($25{\sim}50%$), extraction time ($3{\sim}9$ min) and microwave power ($80{\sim}125$ W). Total protein and total phenolic compound content of optimal extracts were 45.80 mg/g and 7.42 mg/g, respectively. In phenolic compounds of roasted Pleurotus eryngii extracts, protocatechuic acid was the highest concentration at 1226.32 ${\mu}g/g$, followed by salicylic acid, catechin, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, caffeic acid, coumaric acid and hesperidin.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the change of phenolic compounds after lime-sulphur mixture treatment on Cheorwon onion. Onion is a perennial plant belonging to the lily family. It is native to Persia of Southwest Asia. It is cultivated much in the temperate regions of the world. Onion is a good name for the 'Okchong' to drop blood cholesterol and cardiovascular blood flow to increase the prevention of adult diseases. Cheorwon area is inland, but it has high continental climate due to its high altitude. After the treatment with lime-sulphur mixture, the weight, width and plant height of the onion were not affected. In the phenolic compounds, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, rutin, p-coumaric acid and kaempferol except benzoic acid and quercetin were similar to or less than the control. Therefore, it was concluded that the treatment with lime-sulphur mixture had some effect on phenolic compound contents, benzoic acid and qurercetin.

Background: Gray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is one of the major fungal diseases in agriculture. Biological methods are preferred over chemical fungicides to control gray mold since they are less toxic to the environment and could induce the resistance to pathogens in plants. In this work, we try to understand if ginseng defense to B. cinerea could be induced by fungal hypovirulent strain △BcSpd1. BcSpd1 encodes Zn(II)₂Cys₆ transcription factor which regulates fungal pathogenicity and we recently reported △BcSpd1 mutants reduced fungal virulence. Methods: We performed transcriptomic analysis of the host to investigate the induced defense response of ginseng treated by B. cinerea △BcSpd1. The metabolites in ginseng flavonoids pathway were determined by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS and the antifungal activates were then performed. Results: We found that △BcSpd1 enhanced the ginseng defense response when applied to healthy ginseng leaves and further changed the metabolism of flavonoids. Compared with untreated plants, the application of △BcSpd1 on ginseng leaves significantly increased the accumulation of p-coumaric acid and myricetin, which could inhibit the fungal growth. Conclusion: B. cinerea △BcSpd1 could effectively induce the medicinal plant defense and is referred to as the biological control agent in ginseng disease management.

The Quality characteristics of pH, ginsenosides, fatty acid, phenolic compounds were studied for their changes during growth of Candia parapsilosis. The yeast growth not only scarcely affected the total amount of saponins and ginsenosidvs of recd ginseng tail root extract, but also was not affected by the saponin C. pnrapsilosis did not utilize the ginsenosides as a carbon source. Glucose, fructose and free sugars were utilized in the initial phase of growth, whereas sucrose and maltose were used as the growth continued and completely redured after 43 hours of incubation. Unsaturated fatty acids were significantly reduced with cell growth, showing a relationship between unsaturated fatty acid content and the yeast growth, whereas the amount of saturate[1 tatty acids in red ginseng extract was not affected by the yeast growth. Generally, there were no changes in major organic acids and phenolic compounds (vanillie acid , m-coumaric acid) except the 50% reduction in maltol and ferulic acid in the ginseng extract. The amounts of amlno acids were gradually decreased, but that of arginine was remarkably reduced.

Bioactivity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of two new phenylpropanoids, 3-O-p-coumaroyl-1-(4-hydroxy- 3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-propanone (1) and 3-O-p-coumaroyl-1-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-O-$\beta$-gulcopyranosylpropanol (2), together with three known compounds, N-p-coumaroylserotonin (3), N-feruloylserotonin (4) and p-coumaric acid (5) from the leaves of Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including 1D and 2D-NMR. Compared to arbutin (I$C_{50}$ 0.048 mM) as a control, compounds 3 and 4 exhibited stronger tyrosinase inhibition activities with an I$C_{50}$ values of 0.027 mM and 0.026 mM, respectively. Compounds 1 (I$C_{50}$ 0.055 mM) and 2 (I$C_{50}$ 0.053 mM) also showed strong activities.
