This study was performed to aid promotion of fish paste containing Lycii fructus powder as a food. The tested concentrations of Lycii fructus powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. The L values of the samples decreased as the concentration of Lycii fructus powder increased(p<0.001), and the a- and b-value increased(p<0.001). All samples with 3 mm of thickness had good flexibility and did not break even after four times of folding. In texture meter tests, the cohesiveness increased, but gumminess and brittleness decreased according to increasing concentration of Lycii fructus' powder. In the sensory evaluation, scores for color, flavor, pleasant taste, hardness and adhesiveness increased with increasing powder concentration; however oily taste was decreased. The 3% Lycii fructus powder sample had the highest acceptance scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability. The results suggest that Lycii fructus powder can be applied to fish paste for both quality and functionality.

Quality and shelf life of the wet noodle made with 1, 3, 5, and 7% (w/w%) Lycii fructus powder were investigated. Increase in L. fructus power concentration increased the initial pasting temperature and cooking loss, while maximum viscosity, temperature at maximum viscosity, weights and volumes of cooking noodles, and textural properties (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, springiness) of cooked noodle prepared with composite flour decreased. The sensory evaluation of cooked noodles showed that wet noodles with high quality could be produced by 3% inclusion of L. fructus powder. Bacterial counts of wet noodles made with L. fructus powder were lower than those of the control after storage at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Shelf life of wet noodles during storage at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ extended as the L. fructus powder concentration increased.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of Lycii fructus powder on the quality characteristics of sponge cake. Sponge cakes were prepared consisting of 10%, 20%, 30% or 40% Lycii fructus powder. The specific gravity, baking loss. and pH of sponge cake batter measured. The specific gravities of the batter with Lycii fructus powder were higher than the control. Baking loss rate and cake weight increased with the ratio of Lycii fructus powder. The specific volume of sponge cake were gradually increased by increasing the amount of powder. The lightness and yellowness values of the control were higher than sponge cake added with Lycii fructus powder cakes, and 40% Lycii fructus powder showed the lowest value. The substance's level of springiness and cohesiveness decreased as the amount of Lycii fructus powder increased. In the sensory evaluation, the cake with Lycii fructus powder exhibited high overall eating quality. In particular, the cakes with 10% Lycii fructus were preferred for taste, texture, and overal acceptability. The results show that sponge cakes added with 10% Lycil powder were considered the best.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of adding various concentrations of Lycil fructus powder on the quality characteristics of Jeolpyeon. The Lycil fructus powder was added to rice powder at ratios of 3, 6, 9 and l2%(w/w). The moisture contents of the Lycil fructus Jeolpyeon samples ranged from $46.3{\sim}48.9%$. For the color values the L-value decreased and the a-value and b-values incresaed with increasing amounts of Lycil fructus powder. In the textural analysis hardness was highest for the 3% Lycil fructus powder addition, however springiness and cohesiveness did not difference significantly by the addition levels. Finally the results of the sensory evaluation showed the Jeolpyeon containing 6% added with Lycil fructus powder was superior for overall preference, color, flavor, softness, chewiness and after-taste.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidative effect of Yukwa prepared with Lycii fructus powder (LFP). The Yukwas were stored at $50^{\circ}C$ for 40 days. Yukwa dough prepared with 5% LFP demonstrated higher pH and density value compared to the other groups and control. For color values, as more LFP was added, the L-value decreased, whereas the a-value and b-value increased. The hardness of Yukwa made with 7% LFP was the highest among all samples. The results of a sensory evaluation test showed that Yukwas with 5% LFP was most preferable in terms of overall acceptability compared to the others. The acid, peroxide, and thiobarbituric acid values were lower in Yukwa prepared with 5% LFP compared to Yukwa prepared with 3% or 7% LFP, as well as control Yukwa.

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substitution of the flour with Lycium chinense powder on the characteristics of yellow layer cake. Physical properties including specific gravity, specific volume, cake index and color were measured. Also, the hardness change during 6 storage days at 22℃ were measured. Even though the specific gravity of batter decreased significantly with respective addition of 12%, 16% and 20% Lycium chinense powder, the specific volume of cakes did not show difference except the case of 20% addition. The addition of Lycium chinense powder did not influence on cakes' appearance negatively except that of 20% cake. The crust became darker as the level of Lycium chinense powder increased. The crumb color turned into dark orange with addition of Lycium chinense powder, and the intensity became stronger as the level of Lycium chinense powder increased. Both 4% and 8% Lycium chinense powder cakes were scored as same as control in moistness and softness. And they were favored as much as control.

The storage stability from powdered anchovy and its preparation cooperated with three additives (water extract from green tea and boxthorn and BHT) was studied. The results are as follows: 1. When the additives were added to powdered anchovy, the storage stability was improved. The antioxidative activities of water extract from green tea and boxthorn were considerably higher than BHT. The antioxidative activities were decreased in the rank order boxthorn > green tea> BHT. 2. The more the concentration of natural additives was increased, the more the storage stability was improved. The rank order was$60^{\circ}>40^{\circ}>20^{\circ}$ Bx. 3. The A V and POV of powdered anchovy were increased in the rank order to 6 < 12 < 18 < 24 < 30 months by storage term. 4. This clearly suggested that water extract at $20^{\circ}>$ Bx level from boxthorn was possible utilization as a new natural antioxidant for storage stability of powdered anchovy.

This experiment was carried out to examine the fermentation properties of yogurt with Lycii fructus, Lycii folium and Lycii cortex powder, and extract additives at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, and 6.0%. Lactic acid bacteria was used in a mixed starter culture of Streptococcus salivarius ssp. thermophilus(ST36) and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus(LB12). When the boxthorn was added with extract types, the changes of pH, acidity and lactic acid bacteria counts of yogurt during the fermenation of 3 hours were pH 5.64, titratable acidity 0.85%, 5.80xl0$\^$6/cfu/ml of viable cell counts for control yogurt, whereas those were pH 4.10∼5.06, titratable acidity 0.98∼1.27%, 1.80∼9.60x10$\^$7/ cfu/ml of viable cell counts for Lycii fructus extract yogurt. The lactose hydrolysis ratio was better for 1.0% Lycii fructus extract yogurt(42.00%) and 1.0% Lycii folium extract yogurt(41.46%) than for control yogurt(28.40%). Also, content of lactic acid of 1.0% Lycii fructus(11.9 times) and 1.0% Lycii folium extract yogurt(10.6 times) produced more than control yogurt(7.3 times). The viscosity of yogurt was better for boxthorn extract yogurt(1,027∼1,382 cps) than for control yogurt(975cps). The sensory scores of color, taste and overall acceptability of yogurt with 0.5, and 1.0% Lycii fructus extract additive were better than other groups. The yogurts made with increased Lycii fructus extract concentration(0.5∼6.0%), showed the increase of lactic acid, titratable acidity, number of lactic acid bacteria, viscosity and lactose hydrolysis rate compared to the treatments of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0% Lycii folium and Lycii cortex extract and powder yogurt. We gained excellent results from the yogurt to which Lycii fructus extract was added with 0.51.0% concentration.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidative effects of Lycii fructus powder (LFP) solvent extracts and Maejakgwa made with LFP. The solvent extracts of LFP were added to soybean oil in the quantity of $0.05\%$. The solvents used were methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate and petroleum ether. Soybean oil without the addition of LFP was used as a negative control. Soybean oil with $0.02\%$ butylated hydroxytolune (BHT) and $\alpha$-tocopherol were used as positive controls. Each sample was stored at $50^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. The oxidation level of these samples was determined by measuring the acid value, peroxide value and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value. The oxidation level of solvent extracts of $0.05\%$ LFP was lower than both the negative control and $\alpha$-tocopherol. Especially, methanol extract of $0.05\%$ LFP was the lowest. The methanol extract (320 min) and ethanol extract (316 min) demonstrated longer induction periods, compared to the control (253 min), $\alpha$- tocopherol (255 min) and BHT (309 min) by Rancimat method. Acid value of Maejakgwa was increased during the storage time, but it was lower in Maejakgwa made with LFP than in the control group. Peroxide value was increased rapidly for 30 days and then decreased. TBA value was lower in Maejakgwa made with 3, 6, $9\%$ LFP than in those made with $15\%$ LFP and the control.

We aimed to investigate whether the extracts of Lycii fructus, Lycii folium, and estradiol can attenuate on the level of cholesterol on serum and ultrastructure alteration of hepatocytes isolated from ovariectomized rats. Experimental groups are divided into five: Sham (sham-operated), OVX (ovariectomized animal), LCF (OVX, Lycii fructus), LCL (OVX, Lycii folium), and $E_2$ (OVX, estradiol). The body weights of OVX group showed increase compared with Sham, LCF, and LCL groups. The levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol were significantly decreased in the LCF and LCL groups compared with those of OVX group. Moreover, the High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level was increased in the LCL group. As the results of electron microscopical observation, lipid droplets in the OVX group showed increase compared with Sham group. But in the LCF group not showed lipid droplets. In conclusion, administration of Lycii fructus or Lycii folium lowers the serum cholesterol content of the ovariectomized rats and also the damage of the hepatocytes and formation of lipid droplets.
