The three crude drugs of the Kalopanax pictus (Araliaceae) roots (K), Pueraria thunbergiana (Leguminosae) flowers (P), and the Rhus verniciflua (Anacardiaceae) heartwood(R) used for anti-thirst drugs in Oriental herb medicine were extracted with MeOH, respectively, and the successive fractionation of the extract gave EtOAc extract. Certain amount ratios of the three extracts were also prepared to compare the antimutagenicity in Ames test. In N-methyl-N(-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG; 0.4 (g/plate)-induced test, the activities of complex mixture were observed between the highest antimutagenic activity of K extract and the lowest P extract. In aflatoxin (AFB$_1$)-induced test, the EtOAc complex (K : P : R=l : 1 : 3) labeled E-113 decreased the revertants of Salmonella typhimurium TA100 by 95％, which activity were highest among other extracts or complexes mixture used. Fractionation of organic solvent mostly increased the antimutagenicity. These trends were also observed in the antimutagenicity test of the mixture of each active component of kalopanaxsaponin A, tectorigenin and sulfuretin. These results supported that many kinds of anti-thirst herb medicine in the prescription could effectively prevent cancer disease.

To enhance the antimutagenic and anticancer activities of chinese cabbage kimchi, 13 kinds of kimchi, which were different kinds and levels of sub-ingredient added kimchi, were prepared and fermented at 15℃ for 1 day and then at 5℃ up to pH 4.3. The antimutagenic effects of the methanol extracts of the kimchi were studied by using Ames mutagenicity test in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and SOS chromotest in E. coli PQ37. Among the kimchi samples, high ratio of red pepper powder(7%) and garlic(2.8% or 5.2%) added kimchi, 1% chinese pepper powder added kimchi and organic cultivated chinese cabbage kimchi significantly reduced(p<0.05) the mutagenicity induced by aflatoxin B1(AFB1) in Ames test and SOS response against N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) in SOS chromotest, and also the kimchi inhibited more effectively(p<0.05) the survival and growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells than the standarized kimchi on the SRB assay, MTT assay and growth inhibition test. These results suggest that the antimutagenic and anticancer activites of kimchi can be increased by the sub-ingredients such as organic cultivated chinese cabbage, red pepper powder, garlic and chinese pepper powder.

The antimutagenic and anticancer activities of glycoprotein(GP) and chondroitin sulfate(CS) from sea cucumbers were studied using Ames mutagenicity test and human cancer cells culture test. The GP's inhibitory effect toward aflatoxin B1(AFB1) and 3, 2'-dimethyl-4-amino-biphenyl(DMAB) increased with the higher added concentrations up to 5% level(w/w) regardless fractionation methods. The GP from sea cucumbers through DEAE-cellulose column chromatography showed an inhibitory effect ranged from 84 to 98%, and the maximum antimutagenicities resulted in red sea cucumber with 98% (AFB1) and 95% (DMAB). But 5% level of CS from various sea cucumbers had an inhibitory effect toward those both indirect mutagens ranged from 79% to 85%. However, in case of direct mutagens(N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, MNNG and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, 4-NQO), the GP's inhibitory effect was 55∼78% and the CS had a low inhibitory effect(58∼70%) at the added level of 5%. The GP from sea cucumbers exhibited the strong inhibitory effects with 89∼95% and 82∼92% on the growth of HT-29 human crcinoma cells and AZ-521 human gastric cancer cells (at 5% level).

The purpose of present paper is to compare and analyze the quality of imported Chinese products with the Korean local products in terms of proximate composition, character of external appearance , ingredient composition of dried bracken , dried radish cubers, meju , dried pollack, dried mussel , and dried brown seaweed(Undaria puinnatidifida) which were imported between Oct., and Dec. 1992 and distributed in the market. Moisture recovery of dried products resulted in changed shape and incomplete moisture recovery due to an excessive drying in consideration of hygroscopic property in the course of distribution. The amounts of water soluble brown pigment were two times greater in Korean dried pollack and bracken than those of Chinese products. The content of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) were twice in Chinese dried pollack, and this may be due to foregin odor from a long transport time and distribution process. The contents of aflatoxin in Korean products were not detectable and these of Chinese products were 5 $\mu\textrm{g}$(%) in dried pollack, bracken and radish cuber. the remaining agricultural chemicals were not detectable in all products. Because of poor technique and facilities, the external appearance of Chinese products especially dried mussels and dried pollack were not uniformed in size and color. Discoloration and foregin substance such as hair, dust were checked , Korean products were mostly packed in small size in PP or bag, and Chinese products were packed in bulk size and distributed as a bulk.

The inhibitory effect of Coprinus comatus on the mutagenicity in Salmonella assay system and SOS chromotest were studied. In Ames test, the ethanol and water extracts and the cultured mycelia fractions of Coprinus comatus did not show any mutagenicity, but the Coprinus comatus ethanol extracts showed inhibitory effects of 8 0∼90% on the mutagenicity induced by indirect mutagen of benzo(a)pyrene(B(a)P) and aflatoxin B1(AFB1) in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The antimutagenic effect increased with increasing concentration of the ethanol extract toward N methyl N' nitro N nitrosoguanidine(MNNG). However, the water extracts inhibited about 40∼50% against direct and indirect mutagen. The cultured mycelial filtrate of Coprinus comatus, the fractionⅡ, showed antimutagenic effect of 90% on MNNG and 25∼50% on B(a)P and AFB1. In SOS chromotest, the ethanol extracts of Coprinus comatus showed antimutagenic effect of 65∼81% on SOS function induced by 4 NQO, and the cultured mycelia fractionⅡ showed low inhibitory effect of 20∼50%.

The study was carried out to evaluate the antimutagenic and anticancer effects of small water dropwort. The methanol extracts from small water dropwort significantly reduced the mutagenicity induced by aflatoxin $B_1\;(AFB_1)$ and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) in Salmonella typhimutium TA 100. Also, the methanol extracts inhibited the growth of AZ-521 human gastric cancer cells and HT-29 colon cancer cells. The chloroform fraction from methanol extracts of small water dropwort inhibited $40\;to\;80\%$ of the mutagenicity by $AFB_1$ in Sal. typhimurium TA 100 by the addition of 2.5 to $10\%$. To separate active compounds, the chloroform fraction was subjected to column chromatography on a silica gel and separated into five fractions. Among the five fractions, fraction 4 showed the highest antimutagenic effect against $AFB_1$ and an anticancer effect in the HT-29 colon cancer cell. As the result of the analysis in GC-MS, 1-napthalene carbonitrile, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrol and benzene, 1,1'-(1,4-pentadiene-1,5-diyl) bis-,(E,E) were identified potentially from fraction 4.

The prevalence and population density of the mycobiota of 50 samples belonging to 10 kinds of spices (anise, black pepper, red pepper, black cumin, peppermint, cardamom, clove, cumin, ginger and marjoram) which collected from different places in Jeddah Governorate were studied. The natural occurrence of mycotoxins in those samples was also investigated. Fifteen genera and thirty-one species of fungi in addition to one species variety were isolated and identified during this study. The most common genera were Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium. Aflatoxins ($12{\sim}40\;{\mu}g/kg$) were detected in the extract of 5 samples of each of anise seeds and black pepper fruits; three samples of black cumin seeds and on sample only of each of peppermint and marjoram leaves out of 5 samples tested of each. Sterigmatocystin ($15{\sim}20\;{\mu}g/kg$) was detected in some samples of red pepper, cumin and marjoram. The inhibitory effects of 10 kinds of powdered spices were tested against 3 toxigenic isolates of fungi (Aspergillus flavus, A. versicolor and Penicillium citrinum). Clove proved to be antimycotic compounds. It inhibited the growth of the tested toxigenic fungi. Black pepper, peppermint, cardamom, cumin and marjoram completely inhibited aflatoxins production, while black pepper and cardamom also completely inhibited sterigmatocystin production.

This study was carried out to determine the antimutagenic effects of genistein on the somatic mutagenicity induced by aflatoxin B1 (${AFB}_1$), using Drosophila wing spot test system. Mutagen alone or mutagen with genistein were administered to the heterozygous(mwh/+) third instar larvae by feeding, and somatic cell mutations were detected in adult fly wing hairs. Genistein did not show any mutagenicity with the feeding concentrations of 5~15% in the test system. As the feeding concentrations of genistein increased, genistein inhibited the mutagenicity induced by AFB1 (14.6%~62.2% inhibition rate), while as the concentrations of AFB1 increased, small much spots that arise mostly from chromosome deletion and nondisjunction were more strongly suppressed by genistein than the large mwh spots from chromosomal recombination. In each group of different AFB1 concentrations, the rate of inhibition for total mwh spots was dependent on the dose of genistein. These results indicate that genistein have inhibitory effect on the mutagenicity induced by a mtagen, ${AFB}_1$. It seems to suggest that genistein may exert inhibitory effects to mutagenic and/or carcinogenic properties of DNA damaging agents.

The consumption of natural cheese in Korea has dramatically increased since 1997. However, most of the cheeses consumed in Korea are imported. Thus, surplus milk has accumulated in Korea. To solve this problem, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs established a policy to create a farmstead dairy industry. Although the law governing the industry was established in 2016, food safety guidelines have not been prepared. Milk and cheese are prone to contamination with mycotoxins such as aflatoxin M1 and ochratoxin A, antibiotic residues such as penicillin and tetracycline, and pathogenic bacteria including Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus. L. monocytogenes infections have a very high mortality rate; hence, special attention should be paid to preventing contamination of milk and cheese with this organism. To ensure the microbiological safety of farmstead dairy products, the HACCP model has been used. However, this model is not suitable for current processing environments of farmstead dairy products because of the small size of the operations. In addition, scientific data on the microbiological safety of farmstead dairy product are limited and are urgently needed.
