Hydrolysates of Trianthema portulacastrum in acidified methanol were evaluated for their total phenolic (TP) constituents and respective antioxidant activities using in vitro assays (i.e., 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, percent inhibition of linoleic acid peroxidation, and ferric reducing power). The observed results indicate that root, shoot, and leaf fractions of T. portulacastrum contain 50.75~98.09 mg gallic acid equivalents/g dry weight of TP. In addition, these fractions have substantial reducing potentials (0.10~0.59), abilities to inhibit peroxidation (43.26~89.98%), and DPPH radical scavenging capabilities ($6.98{\sim}311.61{\mu}g/mL$ $IC_{50}$). The experimental data not only reveal T. portulacastrum as potential source of valuable antioxidants, but also indicate that acidified methanol may be an ideal choice for the enhanced recovery of phenolic compounds with retained biological potential for the food and pharmaceutical industry.

Dolsan leaf mustard has various biological functions, including those in the immune system and cancer prevention. It contains high amounts of nutritional and medicinal compounds, which are important for maintaining optimum health. The objective of this study was to determine the total phenolics contents and antioxidant activity in Dolsan leaf mustard pickle (DLMP) during storage. DLMP methanol extracts had the highest total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of $35.56{\pm}0.01GAEmg/g$ and $4.54{\pm}0.03QEmg/g$, respectively. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities in the DLMP methanol extracts showed the highest activities of 79.4 and 85.36%, respectively. The ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay showed 2.24-3.82 mM $FeSO_4$ eq. (p<0.05) in DLMP extracts. Overall, storage at day 14 showed the highest antioxidant activity.

The present study was carried out to investigate the antioxidative and neuroprotective effects of sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) leaves (SBL) harvested at different times. Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography analysis revealed five major phenolic compounds: ellagic acid, gallic acid, isorhamnetin, kaempferol, and quercetin. SBL harvested in August had the highest total phenolic and flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacity. Treatment of neuronal PC-12 cells with the ethyl acetate fraction of SBL harvested in August increased their viability and membrane integrity and reduced intracellular oxidative stress in a dose-dependent manner. The relative populations of both early and late apoptotic PC-12 cells were decreased by treatment with the SBL ethyl acetate fraction, based on flow cytometry analysis using annexin V-FITC/PI staining. These findings suggest that SBL can serve as a good source of antioxidants and medicinal agents that attenuate oxidative stress.

To compare the medical efficacy of original Socheongyong-tang with fermented Socheongyong-tang, we've studied the two medicines according to the search for optimal bacteria and optimal conditions, component analysis, assessment of medical efficacy and toxicity, and have the result below. The results were obtained as follows: Considering bacterial growth, $CO_2$ gas emission and pH, we examined that using 3 kinds of bacteria(S. cerevisiae KCTC 7913, L. casei KCTC 3109, L. brevis KCTC 3102) is desirable. There is no main difference in optimum conditions between incubator and shaking incubator. And it is considered that ideal fermentation time is 2 days after vaccination. As the result of componential analysis of before and after fermentation, there's a noticeable decrease of total sugar and protein. But there's no alterations in total phenolics compounds and in total flavonoid compounds that influence on medical effect. The result was interpreted that it can promote the assimilation of herbal decoction after fermentation. As the result of medical efficacy assessment, we can check out that there is more anti-oxidating effects in fermented Socheongyong-tang, whereas anti-inflammatory effects and obesity-preventing effects were favorable in original Socheongyong-tang. And there is no main difference of whitening and COX-2 removing effects between before and after the fermentation. As a result of assessing weight change, hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, we can not notice any unusual difference between before and after the fermentation. According to the results above, it is considered that we checked out the optimal bacteria and optimal conditions, advantages and disadvantages of the medical efficacy of original Socheongyong-tang and fermented Socheongyong-tang. And we suggest that there will have to be a following in-depth and systematic research on this subject in the future.

Natural products have been the target for cancer therapy for several years but there is still a dearth of information on potent compounds that may protect normal cells and selectively destroy cancerous cells. The present study was aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic potential of n-butanolic leaf extract of $Annona$ $muricata$ L. on WRL-68 (normal human hepatic cells), MDA-MB-435S (human breast carcinoma cells) and HaCaT (human immortalized keratinocyte cells) lines by XTT assay. Prior to cytotoxicity testing, the extract was subjected to phytochemical screening for detecting the presence of compounds with therapeutic potential. Their relative antioxidant properties were evaluated using the reducing power and $DPPH^*$radical scavenging assay. Since most of the observed chemo-preventive potential invariably correlated with the amount of total phenolics present in the extract, their levels were quantified and identified by HPLC analysis. Correlation studies indicated a strong and significant (P<0.05) positive correlation of phenolic compounds with free radical scavenging potential. The results revealed that the extract was moderately cytotoxic to normal cells with a mean IC50 value of 52.4 ${\mu}g$ when compared with those obtained for cancerous cells (IC50 values of 29.2 ${\mu}g$ for MDA-MB-435S and 30.1 ${\mu}g$ for HaCaT respectively). The study confirms the presence of therapeutically active antineoplastic compounds in the n-butanolic leaf extract of $Annona$ $muricata$. Isolation of the active metabolites from the extract is in prospect.

Lily (Lilium davidii) is a high-yielding flowering plant. Besides roses and chrysanthemums, lily bulbs have long been used as food and in oriental medicine. However, the usage and value of cut lily bulbs has not been recognized. A bulb whose yield has been decreased is called a waste bulb, and a large amount of such bulbs is discarded every year. In this study, the functionality of waste bulbs from cut lilies was investigated to explore their potential use as a value-added product. We divided lily bulbs into two groups, one group with six varieties of new bulbs (Medusa, Siberia, Woori Tower, Yelloween, Le Reve, and Morning Star) used for cultivation and the other group with six varieties of waste bulbs (Medusa, Siberia, Woori Tower, Yelloween, Sorbonne, and Sheila). Physiological activities (${\alpha},{\alpha}$-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl: DPPH) and 3-ethlbenzthiazolne-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging capability and tyrosinase inhibiting activity), the amount of total as well as eight individual phenolic compounds (chlorogenic acid, epicatechin, rutin hydrate, p-coumaric acid, kaempferol 3-O-${\beta}$-rutinoside, phloridzin dihydrate, myricetin, and quercetin), and total flavonoid content were measured in the bulbs by high performance liquid chromatography. We detected high amounts of total phenol and total flavonoid as well as high DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging ability. More tyrosinase inhibiting activity was detected in the new bulbs than in the waste bulbs. However, both the new and waste bulbs showed a higher inhibitory activity than the standard (100 ppm ascorbic acid). Although the content of phenolic compounds differed among varieties, under the conditions of the experiment, the most abundant phenolics were epicatechins, followed by chlorogenic acid, and rutins. Overall, the waste bulbs had a higher content of these compounds than the new bulbs. Based on these results, we concluded that bulbs from cut lilies could be used as functional foods in the future and farmers could expect economic gain from the hitherto neglected waste bulbs.

Physiological activity and antioxidative activity of Maesangi(Capsosiphon fulvescens) extracts with distilled water or 95% ethanol were investigated. For the evaluation of physiological and antioxidative activities, some evaluation assay methods such as measurement of Hunter color value, chlorophyll a/b value, total phenolics, reducing power and thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value of soybean oil were used. Proximate composition and mineral contents of Masaengi were orders of crude protein>crude fiber>moisture>crude ash>crude lipid, and K>Ca>Mg>Na>P>Fe>Zn, respectively. In ethanol extract, the content of total phenolic compounds in Maesangi was determined to half times of that in Dasima(Laminaria). The reducing power of Maesangi-ehtanol extract was about 5 % of vitamin C and was lower than that of Dasima-ethanol extract. The TBA value of Maesangi-ethanol extract on soybean oil oxidation was about 47 % and 68.4 % to control in three and eight days oxidation, respectively. But TBA value difference was not observed significantly with the dosage below 5mL of ethanol extract.
