We evaluated proanthocyanidin contents out of total polyphenolic compounds in two pine needle extracts prepared by combined extraction methods and compared their antioxidative activities. Amounts of total polyphenolic compounds of sub-supercritical hotwater precipitate (SSHP) and sub-supercritical hotwater supermatant (SSHS) were 225.4 and 116.6 mg/g, respectively. Amounts of proanthocyanidin of SSHP and SSHS were 9.9 and 3.6 mg/g, respectively. Thus, the ratio of proanthocyanidin contents over total polyphenolic compounds of SSHP and SSHS were 4.3 and 3.9%, respectively. Antioxidative activities ($IC_{50}$) of SSHP and SSHS measured by DPPH radical scavenging were 41.5 and $50.7\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. These results indicates that two combined extracts, SSHP and SSHS showed higher antioxidative activities than extract prepared by hot water or sub-supercritical. In conclusion, extraction procedures for SSHP and SSHS could be useful methods for preparing the effective components of functional food products.

The quality characteristics of Campbell grape juice with different extraction processes (AE; autoclave extraction, HWE: hot water extraction, and EE: enzyme extraction) were investigated. The juice yields of the AE, HWE, and EE juices were 79.8%, 82.3% and 92.6%, respectively. The titratable acidity and soluble solids of the EE juice were significantly higher than those of the other extracts. There was no significant difference in the $L^*$ values of the juices, but the $a^*$ and $b^*$ values of the EE juice were higher than those of the other extracts. The viscosity of the HWE and EE juices was higher than that of the AE juice. The major free sugars in the grape juice were identified as glucose and fructose, and the highest organic acid content was found in the EE juice. The total polyphenol content of the EE juice was 55.7 mg% and was higher than those of the AE and HWE juices, which were 31.3 mg% and 39.5 mg%, respectively. Especially, the anthocyanin content of the EE juice was 22.1 mg%, which was two to four times higher than those of the AE and HWE juices, which were 4.5 mg% and 10.5 mg%, respectively. The EE juice showed the highest antioxidant effect, measured from the DPPH free radical scavenging activity and reducing power. In conclusion, we suggest that the enzyme treatment in the grape extraction was more effective than the autoclave and hot water methods.

Quality of noodle processed by addition of hot water extract powder from roasted safflower seed (RSHE) was investigated. Proximate compositions of RSHE was 4.70% of moisture, 32.63% of crude Protein, 6.52% of crude fat, 15.62% of crude ash and 40.53% of carbohydrate. There was no significant difference (p<0.05) in hunter's color value between noodles with and without RSHE. The ‘L’vague of noodle processed by addition of powder from roasted safflower seed (RSP) was very low and significantly different (p<0.05) from other products. With the increase of RSHE addition, the volume and weight of cooked noodles increased (R$^2$=0.9688). The breaking force of dry noodle decreased with the increase of RSHE addition. In the mastication test of cooked noodles, max. weight, strength and hardness increased with the increase of RSHE addition. Dry noodle with 0.3% and 0.5% RSHE recorded high rank, but that with RSP recorded the lowest rank in score of appearance and color by sensory evaluation. The noodle processed with 0.3∼0.5% RSHE showed high sensory quality.

전통 한약재의 일환인 황기, 당귀로부터 추출물의 획득은 일반적으로 열수추출법에 의하여 행해져 왔으나 추출물의 획득수율이 낮고 추출, 농축과정에서의 심란 열처리로 인하여 고유의 향이 소실되는 등 많은 문제점을 안고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 주정추출법을 시도하여 황기, 당귀 추출물의 획득수율을 열수추출법의 50, 39%(w/w) 대비 각각 15. 36% 증가한 65. 75%로 향상시킬 수 있었으며, 강한 고유의 향을 포집하고 있는 전혀 새로운 타입의 추출물을 얻을 수 있었다. 추출과정on서 열수추출법과의 차이는 추출용매를 물에서 주정으로 변경한 것과 1차 추출 후 얻어진 박을 이용하여 2차 추출을 행하였으며, 농축온도를 열수추출의 104$^{\circ}C$에 비하여 상대적으로 낮은 9$0^{\circ}C$에서 실시하였다. 이와 같이 처리온도와 거의 무관하게 주정은 고유의 향을 포집하는 뛰어난 효과를 나타내었다. 이 추출물을 물엿, 음료 등의 제품에 적용할 경우 별도의 인공향료 처리 없이 천연물 그대로의 가공으로도 충분한 고유의 향미를 부여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, the optimization of extraction parameters (solvent, temperature, time, solvent concentration) for the maximization of polyphenol extraction was performed to produce value-added food and cosmetic additives using a byproduct of coffee extraction process (coffee residue). All of the extraction parameters evaluated in this experiment had significant effects on polyphenol extraction and the results showed the effect of NaOH concentration on the polyphenol production was most significant among tested parameters. Especially, hot water extraction using acid or base was effective rather than hot-water extraction and the addition of 0.1 mol of NaOH increased 1.5 times extraction concentration compared with hot-water extraction using distilled water. It was found that hot-water extraction with NaOH was more effective than hot-water extraction, and 36.5 mg GAE/g DM was obtained under optimum condition of $100^{\circ}C$, 2 mol of NaOH and 30 min. This result was 2.9 times higher than that of 12.5 mg GAE/g DM obtained from the hot-water extraction before optimization. Thus, coffee residue could be used for food and cosmetic industry as a high-value additive such as antioxidant.

The biological activity of hot water extract from Ecklonia cava Kjellman (ECE) was investigated to assess antioxidative, anti-skin aging, and nitrite scavenging abilities, as well as alcohol metabolizing activities. Antioxidant activity of ECE was measured by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity. DPPH radical scavenging activity and SOD-like activity of ECE increased in a remarkably dose-dependent manner, and were about 91.4% and 75% at 1 mg/ml, respectively. The xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity was indicated to be about 70% at 1 mg/ml of ECE. Nitrite scavenging ability of ECE showed to be 93.6% at 1 mg/ml and pH 1.2. The influence of ECE on alcohol metabolism was demonstrated through the generating activity of reduced-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The facilitating rate of ADH and ALDH activity by ECE was 167.2% and 334% at 10 mg/ml, respectively. In addition, tyrosinase and elastase inhibitory activities of ECE were 58% and 72% at 10 mg/ml, respectively. These results indicated that ECE has valuable biological attributes owing to its antioxidant, nitrite scavenging, alcohol metabolizing, and elastase and tyrosinase inhibitory activities.

Oxidative stress can play a key role in cadmium (Cd)-induced dysfunction. The present study examined the effect of pine needle water extract (PN) on Cd-induced oxidative stress in rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into three groups: normal group, Cd control group (Cd) and PN-administered Cd group (Cd-PN). $CdCl_2$ in 0.9% NaCl was administered orally with a dose of 5mg/kg of body weight/week, while the PN was administered orally with a dose of 1.26g/kg of body weight/day. Body weight gain was not different between groups, whereas food intakes were significantly lower in the Cd-PN group than in normal or Cd group. Relative liver weight was significantly increased by cadmium administration compared to the normal group. Hepatic cytochrome P450 was significantly lower in Cd and Cd-PN groups than in normal group, while xanthine oxidase and alcohol dehydrogenase activities were significantly higher in the Cd-PN group than in normal or Cd group. Increased hepatic superoxide dismutase, monoamine oxidase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase activities by cadmium administration were significantly decreased by PN supplement. PN did not affect the hepatic glutathione content in cadmium-administered rats; however, PN significantly lowered the hepatic lipid peroxide level and plasma alanine transferase activity compared to the Cd control group. These results suggest that the PN may alleviate Cd-induced oxidative stress without hepatotoxicity.

This study was conducted to analyze the polyphenol contents and antioxidant activities of small-black-bean-Chungkukjang-added black food (SBCB) and soybean Chungkukjang (SC) extracts for the development of functional materials. The yields of the hot-water-and-ethanol SC extracts were higher than those of the hot-water-only SC extracts, which were higher than those of the ethanol-only SC extracts. The total phenol contents of the hot-water-and-ethanol SBCB extracts were higher than those of the other extracts. The EDA values of the hot-water-and-ethanol SBCB extracts were higher in the 0.625~5.0 mL/mL extract concentration than those of the other extracts, and those of the SC extracts were high in the 10 mg/mL extract concentration. The SOD-like activities of the hot-water- and ethanol-only SC extracts were higher than those of the other extracts. The nitrite scavenging ability of the ethanol-only SC extracts was higher at pH 1.2 than that of the hot-water-only SC extracts. The xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities of the hot-water- and ethanol-only SBCB extracts were higher in the 0.625 mL/mL extract concentration than those of the other extracts, and increased along with the extract concentration. The inhibitory activities of tyrosinase also increased along with the extract concentration, and the reducing power increased along with the extract concentration and was high in the hot-water-only SBCB and SC extracts.

Extraction methods of medicinal plants were evaluated for growth enhancing effects of human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells. Hot-water extraction (reflux for 5 hr), hot-water extraction post treatment (100$^{\circ}C$ or 120$^{\circ}C$, 90 min) and ethanol extraction (reflux for 5 hr) methods were applied to Angelica gigas, Rhemania glutinosa, Paeonia lactiflora and Cnidium officinale samples to extract their constituents. Cells were treated for 2 hr with various concentrations of extracts (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 ${\mu}g/{\mu}l}$ media) prior to $H_2O_2$ (250 ${\mu}M$) treatment for 2 hr to provide oxidative stress. Cell viability, caspase-3 expression and apoptosis were measured for cells treated with sample extracts. Hot-water extract exhibited a stronger growth enhancing and apoptosis protecting ability than other extracts. These activities were shown at less than 1 ${\mu}g/{\mu}l}$ concentration, and not greater than 2 ${\mu}g/{\mu}l}$ concentration. Hot-water extract contained more polyphenolic compounds than other extracts coming along with stronger antioxidant activity. The efficacy of antioxidant activity was stronger in the hot-water extract of Angelica gigas than other hot-water extracts of medicinal plants. These results suggest that hot-water extraction is an appropriate method to extract materials for growth enhancing and apoptosis protection of SK-N-SH cells, and hot-water extracts of Angelica gigas might be useful materials for protection from aging brain cells.

Hot water and 95%(v/v) ethanol extracts were prepared from dried Lespedeza cuneata seeds and antioxidant compounds were isolated by solvent fractionation, silica gel adslorption chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and preparative HPLC. Antioxidant activity was measured using DPPH radical scavenging activity. The 80%(v/v)ethanol and ethylacetate fraction of Lespedeza cuneata seed extracts had stronger antioxidant effects than did the n-hexane fraction. The active antioxidant compounds obtained from hot water and 95%(v/v) ethanol extracts may be identical, based on analysis by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and preparative HPLC.
