The contents of functional and nutritional components of 13 cultivars of Chinese cabbage (CC, $Brassica$ $rapa$ subspecies $campestris$) were analyzed to compare the effects of soil pH of the greenhouse (pH 6.2) and outdoor (pH 7.6). The CC cultivated on pH 6.2 (CC-6.2) soil contained significantly increased amounts (2-9 fold) of pectin, crude protein, vitamin C and vitamin E compared to the counterpart (CC-7.6). The contents of ash and the minerals (Ca, Fe, Na, and Mn) were also significantly increased in CC-6.2. However, CC-6.2 contained 40-50% lower contents of reducing sugars, cellulose and crude fat than CC-7.6. CC-7.6 contained more glucosinolates, gluconasturtiin (18.33 vs. $1.16nmol{\cdot}g^{-1}$ wet weight) and gluconapin (145 vs. $2nmol{\cdot}g^{-1}$ wet wt), than CC-6.2. In conclusion, CC-6.2 had an improved texture (high pectin and low cellulose) and nutritional value (high in protein, Ca, Fe, vitamin C, and E), whereas the CC-7.6 had better taste (high in reducing sugars) and anticancer functionality (high in glucosinolates).

Effect of commercial Direct Fed Microbials (DFM) or protease treated feed (PTF) supplementation on growth rate and biogenic substances such as BUN, glucose, IgG, GOT, GPT and Vitamin A, C, E from Holstein steers was studied for 7 months. Thirty two steers aged 2~3 months were separated with 4 groups for control, DFM (PS), protease (ES) and their mix (PS + ES) supplementally fed 0, 100, 100 and 50 + 50 g/day respectively. Weight gain was averagely higher in PS than any others, although there were no differences significantly. All treatments enhanced to 3~8% of control in dry matter, crude protein and total digestible nutrient (P>0.05). Metabolic diseases with veterinary cure had not shown in this study. Plasma GOT and GPT were lower in the PS and ES than control. Plasma glucose concentration was also lower in PS than the others. Total cholesterol of ES was higher than the others but that of PS is the lowest. Plasma vitamin C was higher in PS than the others. It was shown that dietary PS affected change from glucose to vitamin C with not overloading liver. Conclusionally, PS and ES were shown to enhance metabolic health of steers during growing period.

The red pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the most important vegetables in traditional Korean food, containing vitamins A, C, and E, polyphenol, and flavonoids. In addition, red peppers have high anti-oxidant ability and are known to be effective in preventing obesity, diabetes, hypertension, digestive disorders, stress, and aging. In this study, we investigated the effects against obesity and diabetes of both fermented and non-fermented red pepper. C57BL/6N mice with induced obesity from an eight-week 45% high fat diet (HFD) were then fed either an HFD or diets containing 2.5% non-fermented red pepper marc (NRM), 1.25% fermented red pepper marc (FRM), or 2.5% FRM for a further eight weeks. An oral glucose tolerance test was performed seven weeks after dietary intake, and body weight, liver, epididymal fat weight, serum insulin level, and HOMA-IR were measured and a lipid content test performed at eight weeks. The results show that the 2.5% FRM diet reduced body and tissue weight, lipid content, serum insulin levels, and HOMA-IR compared to the 2.5% NRM and HFD diets. These results suggest that fermented red pepper is effective against obesity and diabetes. We will use this information as the basic data for the development of health food materials using red pepper.

This study aimed to determine the chemical components of different cultivars (Gabjubaekmok, Sangjudungsi, and Godongsi) of persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) and the effects of maturity. The detected free sugars were fructose and glucose, and glucose levels tended to increase with maturity. Palmitic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and stearic acid, and potassium were major components. In the amino acid component analysis, the following were usually present in the following month: glutamic acid in Gabjubaekmok in July, lysine in Sangjudungsi in August, and threonine in Godongsi in October. Vitamin C tended to increase with aging, and fruit harvested in July had the highest total phenolic and flavonoid contents. In the metabolite analysis, there were significant differences among cultivars and with maturity. The major physiological compounds were analyzed using ultra performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass ($UPLC/Q-TOF/MS^2$) and were citric acid and gallic aicd. As maturity progressed, citric acid increased but gallic acid decreased.

Physicochemical changes were investigated for the shelf-life extension of cultured wild-ginseng roots during storage with various pre-treatments with blanching, CAMICA-SD and DF-100 and treatments with citric acid and vitamin C. The pH of cultured wild-ginseng roots showed the range of $6.06{\sim}6.42$ at $10^{\circ}C$, but showed higher ranges of $6.08{\sim}6.91$ and $6.08{\sim}8.68$ at 20 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Browning index (a/b) was increased with increasing storage temperature, and the index at 10 and $30^{\circ}C$ were 0.405 and 0.469 after 2 weeks, respectively. Browning index and viable cell number of CAMICA-SD pre-treatment showed little changes compared to pre-teatment with blanching or DF-100. When the cultured wild-ginseng roots were treated with 1.0% citric acid and 0.2% DF-100 after pre-treatments with CAMICA-SD, viable cell number was slightly increased to $4.9{\times}10^2CFU/g$ for 3 weeks storage at $10^{\circ}C$. The mixture of citric acid and DF-100 was also used to prevent the growth of microbiology and to reduce browning reaction, especially enzymatic browning reaction. The mixture might effectively extend shelf life of the cultured wild-ginseng roots.

The contents of chemical components such as total nitrogen, total amino acid and vitamin C were somewhat higher in $N_2$ gas treatment at $10^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours than those of other treatments. However, the contents of tannin and chlorophyll were slightly lower than that in the other treatments. The content of ${\gamma}-Aminobutyric$ acid with $N_2$ gas treatment was higher $1.5{\sim}6$ times with values of $51{\sim}205mg/100g$ than in control (35mg/100g). The scores of sensory test was not different between $N_2$ gas treatment for 3 hours and control. The contents of chemical components such as total nitrogen, total amino acid including theanine and caffeine were slightly higher in $N_2$ gas treatment at $20^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours than those of other treatments. However, the contents of tannin and vitamin C were slightly lower than those of other treatment. The content of GABA in tea leaves treated with $N_2$ gas was higher $2.5{\sim}7$ times with values of $85{\sim}225mg/100g$ than in control (35mg/100g). The sensory test was lower in $N_2$ gas treatment($76.3{\sim}78.1$ point) than in control(80.4 point). The contents of chemical components were not different between $N_2$ gas treatment at $30^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and control. Whereas the contents of chemical components were somewhat lower in $N_2$ gas treatment for 1 hour and 5 hours than in control. The content of GABA in tea leaves treated with $N_2$ gas was higher $3{\sim}7$ times with values of $115{\sim}217mg/100g $than in control(35mg/100g). The sensory test was lower in $N_2$ gas treatment ($74.3{\sim}78.4$ point) than in control(80.4 point). Consequently, tea mading within 5 time $N_2$ gas treatment at $10^{\circ}C$ or 3 time $N_2$ gas treatment at 20, $30^{\circ}C$ after plucking was considered to be the best green tea in terms of functional nature as well as taste nature.

An analytical method using capillary electrophoresis (CE) was developed for quantitation of water soluble vitamin contents in various vitamin products. The method includes the optimization of separation of 11 water soluble vitamins changing the micellar concentration and pH of running buffer, applied voltage and sample preparation. Best resolution was obtained with 25 mM phosphate buffer (pH=8.0) containing 50 mM sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) as micellar phase. At optimum condition, water soluble vitamins were determined in orange juice and vitamin products such as vitamin C pulvis, vitamin injection, coated multivitamin tablet. The quantitative analysis of water soluble vitamins with CE was suitable for quality control of pharmaceutical products with sound reproducibility.
