Antioxidant activities of grape seeds extracted with various solvents were evaluated by measuring total phenol and flavanol contents, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) following lipid peroxidation, 2-deoxyribose degradation, SOD-like activity, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthizaoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical-scavenging ability, and electron-donating ability using 1,1-diphenyl-2-pycryl hydrazil (DPPH) method. Total phenol and flavanol contents of mixted-solvent extracts were higher than those of single-solvent extracts, with the mixing ratio of 17:3 (ethyl acetate: water) (EW) showed the highest contents. Antioxidant activities (%) of TBARS following phosphatidylcholine peroxidation were 14, 45, 45, 7, 4, 25, 21, 23, and 20% for ascorbic acid (AA), butylated hyroxytoluene (BHT), quercetin (Q), acetone extract (AT), ethyl acetate (EA) extract, methanol (MeOH) extract, 4:1 (EA) extract, 9:1 (EW)-extract, and 17:3 EW extract, respectively. Antioxidant activities for 2-deoxyribose degradation were 5, 80, 87, 78, 56, 73, 64, 60, and 75% in AA, BHT, Q, AT, EA, MeOH extract, 4:1 EW extract, 9:1 EW extract, and 17:3 EW extract, respectively. MeOH grape seed extract showed distinctly stronger electron-donating activity than other solvent extracts.

In order to evaluate the effectiveness of KOK(kyungokko) experimentally used for longevity hematology, erythrocyte hemolysis and TBA(thiobarbituric acid) were measured, after LKOK(low concentration KOK) and HKOK(high concentration KOK) were administrated to mice pretreated with AAPH (2,2'-Azobis(2-amidinopropane), hydrocholoride, free radical inducer. In hematology WBC and hemoglobin were reduced significantly, while the number of platelet was significantly incresed as compared with control. Erythrocyte hemolysis by damage of free radical on cell membrane of RBC and TBA(Thiobarbituric acid) were significantly inhibited in both sample groups as compared with control. These results suggest KOK had antioxidant effect.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of adding rosemary extract powder (REP) to pork teokgalbi on its quality and storage characteristics. Five types of teokgalbi were tested, viz. with no REP added (normal, N), with 0.05% ascorbic acid added (control, C) and with 0.05% (R1), 0.1% (R2) and 0.2% (R3) of REP added. The proximate composition, calorific value, water holding capacity and cooking loss were not significantly different among the different types of pork teokgalbi. The L and a values of the teokgalbi containing REP were significantly lower than those of the N and C groups. As regards the textural characteristics, the addition of 0.2% REP increased the springiness value. In the sensory evaluation, the teokgalbi with the addition of 0.1% REP had higher scores in flavor and total acceptability. The 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, total microbial count and volatile basic nitrogen content of the teokgalbi containing 0.2% REP were lower than those of the N group. In conclusion, R3 was significantly more effective in delaying lipid peroxidation than the other treatment groups. Therefore, rosemary extract could be used as a natural antioxidant in meat products.

A new microassay was proposed for the determination of serum thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value greatly enhanced by ferric ion under anaerobic condition. One ${\mu}mole$ of $FeCl_{3}$ per $10{\mu}l$ of serum was added to the TBA reaction mixture containing serum protein precipitate. The reaction mixture was heated on boiling water-bath for 50min under $N_{2}$ flushing. The sensitivity of this assay was greatly enhanced by 40 times comparing with that of Yagi's method (1976). In favour of the enhancement, this test could be measured by colorimetry or spectrophotometry with the sample size of $10-20{\mu}l$ serum. The sensitivity and reproducibility were also improved by means of partial dehydration of the butanol extract with $(NH_{4})_{2}SO_{4}$ salting-out. Serum TBA values of healthy human at different age groups were determined by this proposed method.

Various concentrations of malonaldehyde (MA) produced upon hydrolysis of 1, 1, 3,3-tetraethoxypropane (TEP) were reacted with 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA)and th e contents of MA-TBA complex were measured both with spectrophotometer and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). As the concentrations of MA-TBA increased, their absorbances and the corresponding HPLC peak areas increased. The correlation coefficient between absorbances and HPLC peak areas of MA-TBA peaks from the other compounds and butanol extraction of the complex increased its recovery its recovery by 29.4% . Measurement of the content of MA-TBA complex for monitoring the development of lipid oxidation was proven to be successful with the use of high performance liquid chromatography.

The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of the pentagalloic acid compound in inhibiting the metal ions and cell lines that mediate in low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. Pentagalloic acid prolonged the lag time preceeding the onset of conjugated diene formation. In chemically induced LDL oxidation by Cu$^2$(sup)+ plus hydrogen peroxide or peroxyl radical generated by 2, 2-azo-vis (2-amidino propane) hydrochloride (AAPH), pentagalloic acid inhibited LDL oxidation as monitored by measuring the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS), malondialdehyde(MDA), and gel electrophoretic mobility. The physiological relevance of the antioxidative activity was validated at the cellular level where pentagalloic acid inhibited mouse macrophage J774 and endothelial cell-mediated LDL oxidation. When compared with several other antioxidants, pentagalloic acid showed a much higher ability than naturally occuring antioxidants, ${\alpha}$-tocopherol and ascorbic acid, and the synthetic antioxidant, probucol.

The antioxidative activity of antioxidative substances produced from several bacterial strains isolated from fermented foods were tested by $DPPH\;({\alpha},{\alpha}'-diphenyl-{\beta}-picrylhydrazyl)$ free radical scavenging activity. One of the strains showing the highest antioxidative activity was identified as Bacillus sp. based on the morphological, biochemical, physiological characteristics, and 16S rRNA sequence, and named FF-7. The most optimal medium condition for the production of antioxidative substance from Bacillus sp. FF-7 was 2% galactose as carbon source and l% tryptone as nitrogen source. The antioxidative substance produced from FF-7 in these cultural medium was also tested by in vitro experimental models, the peruxidation of linoleic acid and the peroxidation of rat tissues microsomes by using thiobarbituric acid (TBA) for assay of free malondialdehyde production. The antioxidative activity against lipid peroxidation of rat tissues microsomes was shown in the following order; brain 97.50% > heart 79.95% > kidney 77.84% > spleen 77.47% > testis 69.96% > liver 62.45%. The antioxidative substance produced from FF-7 on linoleic acid peroxidation by IBA method was effectively inhibited during four days, and 0.05% BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) used comparative control was also effectively inhibited. Results showed that the highest antioxidative activity by DPPH method of antioxidative substance produced from Bacillus sp. FF-7 was obtained by supplementing 2% galactose as carton source and l% tryptone as nitrogen source in cultured medium, this substance effectively inhibited the formation of TBARS in brain microsome in vit개 system and in linoleic acid peroxidation.
