Objectives : The objective of this study is to determine the best numbers of steaming-drying cycles of Gastrodiae Rhizoma for both efficacy and taste. We investigated various characteristics among Gastrodiae Rhizoma samples (GSD1, GSD3, GSD5 and GSD7) through the number of steaming-drying cycles increased. Methods : Gastrodiae Rhizoma were steamed and dried at different repeated numbers. They were divided into samples (GSD1; steamed and dried once, GSD3; steamed and dried three times, GSD5; steamed and dried five times, GSD7; steamed and dried seven times) for experiment. They were extracted using water, freeze dried and powdered to analyze proximate composition, free sugar amount, functional components, antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation. Results : Proximate composition and the amount of free sugars of Gastrodiae Rhizoma did not have meaningful differences among samples. Phenolic and flavonoid content of samples were increased by increasing steaming-drying numbers. Gastrodin content had different values and GSD7 was the highest in comparison with others. Increasing steaming-drying numbers led to a increasing in radical and nitrate scavenging activity in samples. Regarding to sensory evaluation, GSD5 was selected as the best sample according to its highest hedonic score mean (5.54/7) among all samples for appearance, color, taste and overall acceptability. Conclusions : The results indicated that 5th-cycling sample was effective in views of functional components, antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics. Moreover, it was suggested that steaming-drying process improved remarkably the effects of Gastrodiae Rhizoma.

Background: Depending on the processing method, the raw materials constituents change in various ways. In particular, a heat treatment process, such as steaming, changes the color and aroma of a raw material to increase its palatability and number of physiologically active ingredients. Methods and Results: In the present study, the effects of the steaming temperature and time on the yield, color, proximal composition, and total polyphenol and ginsenoside content of a 4-year-old ginseng root were analyzed. The yield tended to decrease with the increase of steaming time at each temperature and the total ginsenoside content increased with increasing of steaming temperature except at $80^{\circ}C$. Conclusions: These results suggest that steaming at $100^{\circ}C$ for 6 - 9 hours or at $110^{\circ}C$ for 3 - 6 hours is suitable for increasing total polyphenol and ginsenoside content with less yield reduction in a 4-year-old ginseng root.

The objective of this study was to evaluate antioxidant activities of Rehmannia glutinosa (Raw Jihwang) by traditional method. The total phenol content of Rehmannia radix Preparata (the final cycle of Jihwang) was increased to 205%, compared with Rehmannia glutinosa. Antioxidant activities, determined by ferric-reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP), 2,2'-azinobis(3 ethybenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, increased remarkably as the number of steaming-drying cycles increased. Especially, FRAP value increased 285%. Also, $IC_{50}$ values for DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities of the final 9th-cycling product, decreased 48.4% and 76%, respectively, compared with those of Rehmannia glutinosa. Our result was suggested that antioxidant activities of Rehmannia radix Preparata improve according to the increasing number of steaming-drying cycles.

Streptozotocin-유도 당뇨병 모델을 이용하여 흑삼의 혈당강하작용에 대한 효과를 연구하고 증포과정에 따른 ginsenoside의 조성 변화를 분석하였다. 증포별 ginsenoside의 정량분석 결과, 증포 횟수가 증가할수록 조사포닌의 총량과 대부분의 ginsenoside는 줄어든 반면 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$ 함량 및 PD/PT 비율은 증가하는 경향을 보였는데, 이러한 조성은 다른 인삼제품과는 차별성 있는 특징이다. 또한, streptozotocin-당뇨병 유발쥐를 이용한 모델실험에서 흑삼추출물의 투여는 고혈당 준위(300 mg/dL이상)를 정상 수준(102 mg/dL)으로 감소시켰으며, 혈당 수준의 감소는 glycolysis나 HMT shunt 및 지방산 합성에 관여하는 glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, acetyl CoA carboxylase 등의 효소의 활성증대에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 결과는 흑삼추출물의 유의적인 혈당강하 효과를 입증하며 이에 따라 신약이나 식이보조제의 항당뇨물질로서의 이용가능성을 시사한다.

세근을 제거한 피부직삼을 흑삼제조 시 구증구포의 각 증별로 얻어진 인삼을 주정으로 추출한 추출물의 품질학적 특성과 항산화 특성을 분석하였다. 피부직삼의 증포 횟수가 증가할수록 pH가 감소하였으며, 흡광도는 증가하였는데 특히 4회째부터 크게 증가하여 갈색도가 진해졌다. 벤조피렌 분석 결과 8증과 9증에서 0.04 ppb로 낮은 함량을 나타내었으며 Rg1 및 Rb1 함량은 증포 횟수에 따라 19.07 mg/g에서 1.70 mg/g으로 크게 감소하였다. 흑삼 추출물의 항산화활성은 DPPH radical 소거능, hydroxy radical 소거능, ABTS radical 소거능, FRAP으로 분석하였으며 총 페놀함량을 측정하였다. DPPH radical 소거능 $IC_{50}$값은 피부직삼이 14.09 mg/mL, 1회 증포 시 12.20 mg/mL, 3회 증포 시 7.63 mg/ mL, 9회 증포 시 3.12 mg/mL로 증포 과정이 증가할수록 $IC_{50}$값은 4.5배 감소하였으며, FRAP value는 피부직삼으로 흑삼 제조 시 증포 횟수의 증가에 따라 155.6% 증가하였다. ABTS radical 소거능은 각각 피부직삼 51.12%, 1회 증포 69.34%, 9회 증포 84.13%로 증포 과정이 반복될수록 증가하였다. Hydroxyl radical $IC_{50}$ 측정값은 1회 증포 31.24 mg mL, 9회 증포 3.04 mg/mL로 증포 횟수가 증가할수록 hydroxyl radical $IC_{50}$ 값이 9.7배 감소하였다. Total phenol 함량은 1회 증포 시 0.61 mg/mL, 6회 증포 시 0.79 mg/mL, 9회 증포 시 0.83 mg/mL로 total phenol 함량이 증포 횟수의 증가에 따라 126% 증가하였다. 따라서 피부직삼을 이용하여 흑삼 제조 시 증포를 9회 반복함에 따라 항산화활성은 78~155.6% 증가하였는데, 이는 phenol 함량이 168%까지 증대된데 기인된 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried to investigate the effects of steaming and four different drying methods on the longitudinal liquid permeability of Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb.et Zucc.) board. Four drying methods were air drying, conventional kiln drying, microwave-vacuum drying and high temperature drying. Darcy equation was used for calculating the specific permeability of the small sapwood specimens taken from the treated boards while capillary rising method was used for the heartwood specimens. The sapwood specimens were extracted with water and benzene-alcohol solution to examine the mechanism of liquid flow in treated wood. No significant correlation was found between specific permeability and the number of resin canals of the sapwood specimens. Extraction decreased the differences of specific permeabilities of the sapwood specimens between the five treatment methods. The effects of extraction on the longitudinal permeability are different between five treatments. The fluid path in heartwood was observed by dynamic observation method.
