This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidative activity and cytotoxicity on human KB cell of extract from Rhododendron mucronulatum flower, and also to determine the contents of total polyphenol and flavonoid. The methanol extract of Rhododendron mucronulatum flower was fractionated with various solvents such as hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of ethyl acetate fraction had stronger activity than other fractions. So, antioxidative substances of ethyl acetate fraction were crude purified by silica gel column chromatography. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of crude purified fraction 2 and 3 were more than 90% at 40 ppm. In the presence of $100{\mu}g/mL$, growth inhibition on human KB cell by WST-1 assay showed 81.2% in chloroform fraction and 74.6% in hexane fraction. The contents of total polyphenol and flavonoid of ethyl acetate traction were 32.70% and 20.30%, respectively, The antioxidative activity showed correlation with total polyphenol and flavonoid contents.

The inconsistent methods of harvest, identification, and preparation of brown algae samples make it difficult to compare the results of certain measurements across different studies, such as total phenolic contents (TPC), total flavonoid contents (TFC), and total antioxidant capacities (TAC). Therefore, this study aims to systematically measure and compare TPC, TFC, and TAC in 10 types of standardized brown algae extracts provided by the Bio-Resource Information System of Korea. Among the ten brown algae extracts, Ishige foliacea exhibited the highest levels of TPC and TAC, followed by Sargassum nigrifolium. TAC was measured by the following four assays: ABTS, DPPH, superoxide radical scavenging activities, and ferric reducing antioxidant power. TAC was found to be positively correlated with TPC (p<0.05) but not TFC, indicating that Ishige foliacea and Sargassum nigrifolium have potential use as marine antioxidative food material.

Polyphenols are chemically unstable, and their bioactivities are reduced through oxidation. Photosensitizers (PS) induce photo-oxidation in various food systems. In this study, effects of dietary PS such as riboflavin (Rb), erythrosin B (EB), and zinc protoporphyrin on the auto-oxidation of polyphenols, gallic acid (GA) and tannic acid (TA) were evaluated under a fluorescent light. The formation of oxidation products from GA and TA increased in a PS concentration- and irradiation time-dependent manner. In addition, Rb and EB induced significant reduction in the polyphenols contents and ABTS radical scavenging activity of GA and TA under light. PS significantly enhanced the amount of reactive oxygen species generated from GA and TA. Therefore, the interaction of polyphenols with PS under light results in acceleration of polyphenol oxidation. This phenomenon should be carefully considered during food processing and storage.

This study was performed to investigate the changes between free and bound forms of bioactive compounds in germinated adzuki bean. Adzuki bean was germinated at $25^{\circ}C$ for 6 days, and then free and bound forms of bioactive compounds were extracted. Total free polyphenol and flavonoid contents in of raw adzuki bean increased from 0.91 mg/g and 0.60 mg/g in before germination to 2.37 mg/g and 3.03 mg/g in at 6 days after germination, respectively. Bound polyphenol, flavonoid, and phenolic acid contents also increased with increasing germination periods, whereas bound polyphenol and flavonoid contents slightly reduced in at 2 days after germination. The total phenolic acid contents, including ferulic acid, veratric acid, hesperidin, salicylic acid, naringenin, and hesperidin, increased during germination, and germination process can convert compounds to phenolic acid via anabolism and catabolism. Total anthocyanin and anthocyanidin contents of adzuki bean decreased during germination due to hydration by water during soaking or enzyme activation of anthocyanase during germination. These results suggest that the germination process increased utilization of functional compounds such as phenolic compound and isoflavones in black soybean.

Dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline(DPPC), Polyphenol Derivatives, and Hematoxylin-Eosin were directly sonicated in acidic condition for 6 minutes to give clear stock solutions. Absorbtion properties of Polyphenol Derivatives in lecithin vesicle of Diphalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline system at $25^{\circ}C$ have been studied by absorbtion spectroscopy. The equilibrium of Polyphenol Derivatives between monomer and dimer in lecithin vesicles have been existed at low concentration of Polyphenol Derivatives, but oligomer has been formed in vesicle at high concentration of lecithin vesicles. By adding Bacteriorhodopsin(BR) to constant concentration of Polyphenol Derivatives decreased the absorbtion ratio(${\alpha}/{\beta}$) of Polyphenol Derivatives was increased during phase transition of dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline. In the presence of column eluted lamella vesicle and mixture of uni- and multilamella aggregates. The differences of rate between column eluted- and mixture were observed, therefore column eluted lamella reaction was represented more catalytic effect. The phase transition temperature of hydrolysis on Dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline and Polyphenol Derivatives were measured higher than it of Dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline and no Polyphenol Derivatives.

Berries and green tea are underutilized in the food industry despite their great potential as a functional food ingredients. The purpose of this study was to determine the extraction conditions under which total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities of berry and green tea extracts are maximized. Extracts produced using 0-80% ethanol and temperatures ranging from $5-65^{\circ}C$ were evaluated for total phenolic content (TP), as well as for DPPH and ABTS radical-scavenging activities by using response surface methodology. Both ethanol and temperature had significant effects (p<0.05). Ogaja extract produced at $67^{\circ}C$ by using 33% ethanol yielded maximum TP, ABTS, and DPPH values of 23.74 mg GAE/g, 19.77, and 25.04 mg VCE/g, respectively. Optimum conditions for mulberry and raspberry extraction were found to be $65^{\circ}C$ by using 69% and 40% ethanol, respectively. Mulberry and raspberry extracts had TP, DPPH, and ABTS values of 20.74 mg GAE/g, 23.55, and 35.44 mg VCE/g, and 26.08 mg GAE/g, 39.93, and 55.60 mg VCE/g, respectively. Green tea extraction at $57^{\circ}C$ by using 43% ethanol was found to be optimal, yielding TP, ABTS, and DPPH values of 101.15 mg GAE/g, 171.38, and 177.56 mg VCE/g, respectively.
