This study investigated the effects of steaming on the antioxidative activities of ray hydrolysates in vitro. Based on the results of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, steamed ray hydrolysate possessed significantly higher antioxidative activities than raw ray hydrolysates (p<0.05). The 2,2-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity of steamed ray hydrolysate by pancreatin was slightly lower than raw ray hydrolysate at all concentrations. Raw ray hydrolysate displayed moderate hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, while steamed ray hydrolysate showed a greater increase in hydroxyl radical scavenging activity than raw ray hydrolysate at concentrations above 21.33 mg/mL, and it reached 58.21% at 42.67 mg/mL. The results of this study show that ray hydrolysates have potent free radical scavenging activities and reducing power, and the steaming has a partial impact on the antioxidative activity of ray hydrolysates.

These studies were carried out to characterize the physiological functionalities of Codonopsis lanceolata, Cornus officinalis, and their mixtures. We investigated the antioxidative, fibrinolytic, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of them. The antioxidative activities of Codonopsis lanceoiata and Cornus officinalis were 87% and 90%, respectively. Addition of salt to Codonopsis lanceolata and Cornus officinalis did not affect its antioxidative activities. In spite of fourfold addition of Codonopsis lanceolata to Cornus officinalis, the antioxidative activity was conserved at 90%. The fibrinolytic activities of Codonopsis lanceolata and Cornus officinalis were 0.78 plasmin unit/ml and 1.74 plasmin unit/ml, respectively. Addition of salt decreased the fibrinolytic activities of both Codonopsis lanceolata and Cornus officinalis. A mixture (3:1) of Codonopsis lanceolata and Cornus officinalis exhibited a 21% increase in activity. The ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of Codonopsis ianceoiata and 100-fold diluted Cornus officinalis were 25% and 73%, respectively. The addition of salt to Codonopsis lanceolata and Cornus officinalis slightly decreased their ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities. According to the addition of Cornus officinalis to Codonopsis lanceoiata, the ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of the resulting mixture were highly increased. We anticipate that these results will be used as basic data for the development of new bifunctional foods.

Hizikia fusiformis hydroysates by five carbohydrases (Viscozyme, Celluclast, Termamyl and Ultraflo) and five proteases (Protamex, Kojizyme, Neutrase, Flavourzyme and Alcalase) were investigated for their extraction efficacy (yield and total total polyphenolic content) and antioxidative activity (DPPH radical and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity). Termamyl and Ultraflo of the carbohydrases and Flavourzyme and Alcalase of proteases were selected by their high eficacy of extraction and antioxidative activity. Selected enzymes were used to investigate the optimum enzymatic reaction time and dosage (enzyme/substrate ratio) suitable for hydorolysis. Optimum reaction time for the enzymatic hydrolysis was 3 days and optimum dosage of hydrolysis was observed as 5%. Simultaneously, Ultraflo of the two carbohydrases and Alcalse of the two proteases were selected as the most effective enzymes. Combination of Ultraflo and Alcalase under optimum hydrolysis conditions could intensify the extraction efficacy of antioxidative materials form H. fusiformis. The hydrolysate obtained by combining the enzymes was separated into four different molecular weight fractions (<1kD, 1-10 kD, 10-30 kD and >30 kD) and recorded the polyphenolic content distribution and respective antioxidative ability. The fraction <1kD was identified as less effective and those fractions > 1kD indicated comparatively higher antioxidative activities related to their polyphenolic content.

영지 추출액의 항산화 활성을 thiocyanate method, TBA method, weighing method를 이용하여 검색한 결과 n-hexane 추출물, methanol 추출물에서 항산화활성이 나타났으며 그 중에서 n-hexane 추출물의 fraction V와 methanol 추출물의 methanol 불용성 fraction II에서 강한 활성을 나타내었다. 이들 항산화 활성을 나타내는 fraction 5와 fraction II를 rat의 간 균질액을 이용한 항산화 활성 검색에서 과산화 지질 생성억제를 TBA값으로 나타내어 inhibition ratio(I.R.)를 산출하였으며 그 결과 n-hexane 추출물의 fraction V는 l5%, methanol 추출물의 methanol 불용성 fraction II는 54.6%의 억제율을 나타내었다 이는 rat의 간 mitochondria에서 과산화지질 생성 억제율이 영지의 물 추출물은 16%, acetone 추출물은 23%인 것에 비하여 약간 높았으나, microsome에서 과산화지질 생성 억제율이 물 추출물은 44%, acetone 추출물은 75%인 것에 비하여 다소 낮은 활성을 보여주었다.

모유성분을 고분자분획(20KD 이상 분자)과 저분자분획(20KD 이하 분자)으로 나누어 항산화력을 검토한 결과, 고분자분획이 저분자분획 보다 더 강력한 항산화력을 나타내었다. 이 모유의 항산화력은 주로 20KD 이상에 존재하는 항산화 효소에 기인할 가능성이 시사되어 모유의 채유 기간에 따른 항산화 효소를 비롯하여 protein-SH와 nonprotein-SH를 검토한 결과, catatase는 7일째 현저히 저하한데 비해 GSH peroxidase, GSH S-transferase는 7일째를 전후로 현저히 증가한 후 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. Protein-SH는 채유 기간에 따라 차츰 감소하였으나 nonprotein-SH는 20일째 peak를 이루고 그 후 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 부터 모유의 고분자분획은 강력한 항산화력을 나타내었으며, 이 항산화력은 catalase, GSH peroxidase 및 GSH S-transferase 등의 항산화 효소 활성에 기인할 것으로 사료된다.

Physiological activities of hot water extract and solvent fractions isolated from Astragalus membranaceus were examined and the antioxidative, fibrinolytic, thrombin inhibitory and a-glucosidase inhibitory activity were measured. The hot water extract of Astragalus membranaceus was fractionated into hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water fractions, and each of these fractions was individually assayed. The antioxidative activities of ethyl acetate and chloroform fractions were 89.96% and 87.36%, respectively. Using the fibrin plate method, only the hot water extract showed a plasmin activity of 0.41 units/ml. The thrombin inhibitory activity of the ethyl acetate fraction was the highest with a value of 82.73%. The hot water extract displayed a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 64.91%. In conclusion, the hot water extract and the ethyl acetate fraction can be used as materials for the development of biofunctional foods to prevent cardiovascular diseases.

The extracts of Quercisemen(Quereus acutissima Carruthers seed) powder was obtained by the extraction with distilled water, water : acetonet(1:1, v/v), ethanol and ethyl ether, respectively. As a result this experiment, the antioxidative activity of each solvent extracts on linoleic acid were examined as follows: 1. Each fraction extracted by the acetone : water(1:1, v/v), water and ethanol respectively showed high antioxidative activity. 2. A fraction of the tannin extracted from the solvent, acetone, water(1:1, v/v) showed even more antioxidative activity than that of the ${\alpha}$-tocopherol or BHT. 3. Acceleration of peroxide reaction by $Fe^{++}$ and $Cu^{++}$ on the linoleic acid was strongly inhibited by adding the tannin, 4. Organic acid, such as malic acid, citiric acid and tartaric acid with the tannin were showed the synergistic effect fo the antioxidation reaction.

The comparative activities of acetone, ethanol, and aqueous fractions extracted from fruit powder of Cudrania tricuspidata by different temperature were tested by in vitro experimental models; peroxidation of linoleic acid and autooxidation of rat hepatic and renal microsomes by using thiobarbituric acid (TBA) for assay of free malondialdehyde production, and scavenging activities of free radicals by DPPH (α, α'-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl). In DPPH method, acetone fraction extracted at 30℃ showed the highest free radical scavenging activities and acetone fractions extracted at 30℃ and 60℃ and ethanol fraction extracted at 30℃ showed stronger than BHT (butylated hydroxitoluene) although used ten-fold lower concentrations. In thiocyanate method used linoleic acid an inhibitory effects of all fractions showed higher than control treatment. TBA method used linoleic acid showed the highest antioxidative activity in acetone fraction extracted at 30℃ and 60℃. an inhibition activity against lipid peroxidation in hepatic microsomes of rats showed the highest at acetone faction extracted at acetone fraction among extracted fractions was shown to be the most potent antioxidative properties and this action was more potent in fractions extracted at 30℃ than those extracted at 60℃.
