The present study was carried out to develop cholesterol-reduced and gamma linolenic acid (GLA)-added butter and to examine the changes in chemical and sensory properties, and cholesterol lowering effect of GLA addition. The cholesterol removal rate reached 93.2% by $\beta$-cyclodextrin in butter before GLA addition. The thiobarbituric acid value of cholesterol-reduced and GLA-added butter increased slowly up to 4 week and plauteaued thereafter. TBA value was significantly increased with 2% GLA addition, compared with no GLA addition. The production of short-chain free fatty acids (FFA) increased with storage in all treatments. From 4 weeks storage, the amount of short-chain FFA in 2% GLA-added group was significantly higher than those in other groups. Among sensory characteristics, color, greasiness and overall acceptability were mostly affected by GLA addition, however, the rancidity value of 2% GLA addition was significantly different from those of control and GLA-unadded and cholesterol-reduced butter at 0, 6 and 8 week storage. Among groups, no difference was found in texture in all storage periods. The smallest increase of total blood cholesterol in rats was found in the group fed 2% GLA-added and cholesterol-reduced butter for 8 week, compared with that in controls. The present results showed the possibility of cholesterol-reduced and GLA-added butter development without much difference in chemical, rheological and sensory properties, and indicated a slow increase effect on blood total cholesterol in rats.

Pleurotus djamor var. roseus is an edible mushroom isolated from the wild and cultivated on paddy straw substrates. The present study was carried out to compare the nutritional composition and antioxidant properties of P. djamor var. roseus at different growth stages (primordia, basidiomata, and mycelia). The protein content was is in the range of 31.48 to 35.50 g/100g dw. The crude fiber content ranged from 8.0 to 14.60 g, and that of total carbohydrates ranged from 44.75 to 48.90 g. Sodium, magnesium, and calcium reached the maximum levels in basidiomata, and selenium was detected in basidiomata and mycelia (0.47 - 0.22 mg/Kg). The amino acid profile showed that all essential and nonessential amino acids and glycine showed maximum levels in basidiomata and 15.98 ± 0.01 g/100g. The fatty acid profile showed the presence of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids; the unsaturated fatty acid content was maximum in all of the samples, ranging from 76 - 40.41%. The total phenol and flavonoid contents as well as the scavenging (DPPH), ferric thiocyanate (FTC), and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) activities in the context of methanol and water extracts from primordia, basidiomata, and mycelium were determined. Among them, basidiomata and mycelial methanol extracts exhibited significant antioxidant activity. Overall, these findings show that P. djamor var. roseus can be used as a functional food for daily consumption.

As a search for natural antioxidants, antioxdative fractions in Pueraria roots were extracted, identified using column chromatography, thin layer chromatography or high performance liquid chromatography. The components which have most effective antioxidative activities were further identified by IR and GC-MS. Separated antioxidative components were then added to four different oils to examine their antioxidative activities. Yield of extract obtained from pueraria root powder by solvent extraction using four step solvent systems was 2.54%. Antioxidative activity of the extracts was as effective as that of 100 ppm ${\delta}$-tocopherol addition, when 0.1% of the extracts was added to linoleic acid. The strongest antioxidative component of methanol extract of pueraria root was identified as puerarin. Aunioxidative activity of puerarin on lard was more effective than ${\alpha}$-tocopherol, but less effective than ${\delta}$-tocopherol. When the puerarin was added to edible oil and heat treated at $145^{\circ}C$, the acid value was lowest in lard and was highest in soybean oil. Antioxidative activity in terms of carbonyl value, thiobarbituric acid value and anisidine value was most high in palm oil and least in soybean and cottonseed oil.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality of fermented sausages manufactured with processed sulfur-fed pigs. The fermented sausages were divided into two groups; one was manufactured with non sulfur-fed pigs (NP), the other one was made with processed sulfur-fed pigs (SP). No differences were found in moisture and fat contents (p>0.05) between NP and SP, but the protein and ash con-tents of SP were significantly higher than those of NP (p<0.05). The pH of SP was significantly lower than that of NP, and the water activity ($a_w$) of SP was significantly higher than that of NP after 14 and 21 d (p<0.05). The TBA (Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) w value of SP was significantly lower than that of NP (p<0.05). The lightness and yellowness of NP were significantly higher than those of SP, whereas the redness of NP was lower than SP (p<0.05). The total plate count of SP was lower than that of NP (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in TPA (Texture profile analysis) between the two samples. SP showed significantly increased monounsaturated fatty acid (p<0.05) and decreased saturated fatty acid. Umami taste and richness in SP were significantly higher than in NP (p<0.05). Therefore, it is suggested that processed sulfur fed pigs may play a key role in enhancing the quality of meat products.

This study was purposed to investigate the antioxidative effects, the enzyme activity of the alcohol metabolizing and melanin production of Maesil(Prune mume). The antioxidant activity of Maesil(Prunu mume) was analyzed by measuring thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS value) and electron donating ability. And we investigated the changes of alcohol dehydrogenase(ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH) activity by measuring the maximum absorbency at 340nm in vitro and human study. The inhibitory effects of Maesil were investigated in vitro and in B-16mouse melanoma cells on melanin biosynthesis that is closely related to hyperpigmentation. The antioxidant activities for TBA values were 29.65% in ascorbicacid, 45.35% in BHT, 15.99% in extract of dehydrated maesil flesh(EDMF) and 25.00% in extract of dehydrated maesil juice(EDMJ). The electron donating abilities by DPPH were 96.69% in ascorbic acid, 77.82% in BHT, 34.25% in EDMF, and 42.99%in EDMJ. Electron donating abilities by DPPH in the presence of 0.02% EDMF and EDMJ were 53.21% and 59.19% respectively. Facilitating rates of ADH activity were 137.92, 131.58, 152.96, 218.70, 111.76, and 144.27% in maesil juice, 5, 10, and 15% GMT, and 0.5 and 1.0% aspartic acid, respectively. ALDH activity increased in the order of Maesil juice > ALDH > GMT > aspartic acid, and facilitating rate of ALDH activity in Maesil juice was the highest at 976.44%. Maesil extracts inhibited tyrosinase activity that converts dopa to dopachrome in the biosynthesis process. B-16 cells treated by Maesil extracts showed that the viability was over 80%. Maesil and maesil products in vitro and B-16 cells inhibited melanin production significantly.

Low salt fermented products of anchovy, Engraulis japonica, caught in the coasts of East Sea of Korea, were prepared tentatively and also discussed the retarding effect of rancidity of the product by the addition of BHA or red pepper. Fresh anchovies were purchased from Kichang fish market. The raw samples were mixed with $8\%$ table salt, $0.5\%$ lactic acid, $6\%$ sorbitol, $4\%$ ethyl alcohol and $0.02\%$ BHA or $0.5\%$ red pepper and filled in the glass bottles and sealed with the cap. Conventional fermented product of anchovy as a control was prepared from fresh anchovy and $20\%$ salt only. After preparation, the products were fermented for 90 days at room temperature. Amino-nitrogen, TBA value, peroxide value and viable counts of bacteria of these products were determined and also evaluation of their qualify was compared with control product by sensory evaluation during fermentation. Amino-nitrogen contents of the low salt products reached a peak in 55 days of fermentation, and the volatile basic nitrogen contents ranged $100\;mg\%$ even after 90 days of fermentation. Thiobarbituric acid value of the product with $0.02\%$ BHA showed a little increase up to 65 days of fermentation regardless of salt contents, while that of the control product increased sharply up to 65 days and then decreased gradually. BHA was effective on retarding rancidity of fermented products of anchovy and red pepper was also slightly effective. All the products showed the highest cell population in about 55 days of fermentation. Judging from the results of analysis and sensory evaluation, the low salt fermented product of anchovy could be prepared with $8\%$ salt, $0.5\%$ lactic acid, $6\%$ sorbitol, $4\%$ ethyl alcohol and $0.02\%$ BHA or $0.5\%$ red pepper to the fresh round anchovy.

Laminated films were prepared by casting corn-zein and fatty acid mixed solutions onto ${\kappa}-carrageenan$ films, and the effect of various fatty acids with different concentrations on the film properties such as water vapor permeabilities (WVP), tensile strength (TS) and elongation was investigated. WVP of the film decreased as concentration of fatty acids increased, and the lowest WVP value $(0.497\;ng\;m/m^2\;s\;Pa)$ was achieved with laminated films containing 30% lauric acid/corn-zein. The TS of laminated edible film seemed to decrease as the concentration of fatty acids increased, and TS of the laminated film was the highest (36.21 MPa) when the film contained 10% oleic acid. Weight loss of the minced mackerels packaged with corn-zein/carrageenan film which did not contain fatty acid was 11.7%, but weight losses of the samples packaged with oleic acid and lauric acid were 6.97% and 0.81%, respectively, after 30 days storage at $-20^{\circ}C$. The laminated films had an effect on preventing oxidation of the minced mackerels during storage because of high oxygen barrier property of the film. All of the minced mackerels packaged with the laminated films greatly reduced the peroxide value (POV) compared with unpackaged minced mackerels during storage. Also, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values of the minced mackerels packaged with the laminated films were lower than that of unpackaged minced mackerels during storage.

The comparative activities of aqueous, ethanol, and methanol extracts from Aralia elata shoot (AES) and leaf (AEL) were tested by in vitro experimental models of linoleic acid peroxidation by thiocyanate and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) methods and scavenging activities of free radicals by DPPH (${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$'-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl). In addition, bio-active materials (phenolic compounds and minerals) were also measured. The extract yield of each solvent extracted from AES and AEL was 3.08% and 3.13% in aqueous, 0.58% and 0.66% in ethanol, and 0.81% and 1.73% in methanol, respectively. The highest extract yield was found in the aqueous extract from AEL. Major mineral contents (mg%) of AES and AEL were 575.7 and 759.3 in Ca, 353.5 and 330.0 in K, and 31.3 and 31.0 in Mg, respectively. The highest free radical scavenging activity was found in the aqueous extract by 28.69% at 0.1% additional level from AES and in the methanol extract by 92.36% at 0.1% additional level from AEL. Free radical scavenging activity was stronger in AEL than in AES. In antioxidative activities determined by thiocyanate and TBA methods against lipid peroxidation using linoleic acid, ethanol extracts from AEL showed the highest antioxidative activity at all treatment concentrations. These results may provide the basic data to understand the biological activities of bio-active materials derived from AES and AEL.

Anchor Engraulis japonica was fermented with $10\%$ and $20\%$ salt at $10^{\circ}C$ ($10\%$ 5A) and $20^{\circ}C$ ($20\%$ SA), respectively, and the changes in lipid content, fatty acid composition and lipid oxidation was observed for 105 days. Peroxide value (POV) in $10\%$ SA reached to the maximum (46.4 meq/kg) on 30 days of fermentation, while in $20\%$ SA, it reached the maximum (54.7 meq/kg) on 45 days of fermentation, and then decreased in both samples during fermentation. Thiobarbituric acid values revealed a similar tendency with the change of POV during the fermentation. These results indicated that lipid of the anchovy was oxidized faster in lower salt than high salt in the early stage. Total lipid (TL) content during the fermentation for 105 days decreased approximately $16\%$ in $10\%$ SA and approximately $33\%$ in $20\%$ SA. Phospholipid (PL) content also decreased in both samples and the content of neutral lipid (NL) was unchanged in $10\%$ SA, while it decreased in the same amount as PL in $20\%$ SA. The prominent fatty acids in TL of the anchovy sample were 14 : 0, 16 : 0, 16 : In-7, 18 : in-9, 20 5n-3 and 22 : 6n-3. After fermentation for 105 days, approximately $87\%$ and $67\%$ of the prominent fatty acids remained in $10\%$ SA and $20\%$ SA, respectively, but the kind of the fatty acids was unchanged.

In this study, we investigated the in vivo effect by intake of the irradiated foods such as mackerel and sesame seed which are high in unsaturated fatty acid through TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive subtance) and the tissue pathological and genotoxicological test. Thirty two ICR mice are divided into four groups, one non-irradiated (control) group and three irradiated (5, 10, 20 kGy, respectively) groups. Sesame seed and pulverized mackerel in modified AIN93M diet were mixed together then divided into four identical parts. Three parts of them were irradiated by doses of 5, 10, and 20 kGy. These experimental diet were fed to each group for 4, 8 and] 6 weeks. The results of the study were as follows: No significant differences in weight gain were found in each group. Peroxide value of the irradiated diet was higher than that of the non-radiated one and also increased according to the storage period. TBA values in plasma, liver, kidney and Peyer's patch were not significantly different among 4 groups. DNA% in tail, tail length (TL) and tail moment (TM) values of the blood lymphocyte in 4, 8 and 16 week groups and the liver in 16 week group were much measured over the control DNA % in tail of kidney of 8 week group was significantly than the control and TL and TM of 8 week and TM of 16 week groups showed a tendency of higher values. By Peyer's DNA % in tail of 8 week group, DNA % in tail and TM of 16 week groups increased significantly over the control, Ultrastructural examination shows myeline figures and swollen mitochondria in parietal cells and intestinal epithelial cells of 8 and 16 weeks groups. After this study, we need further investigations on the safety of highly consumed foods which contain high contents of unsaturated fatty acid, largely imported and which are possible to be irradiated.
