This study was carried out to investigate the effects of herb extracts on lipid oxidation and free radical reaction in iron sources reacted with active oxygen species. The catalytic effects of active oxygen on lipid oxidation in oil emulsion tended to show more active in the order of OH, H2O2 and KO2. Herb extracts tended to show a little catalytic effect and active oxygen scavenging ability of herb extracts didn't show. But herb extracts played role as a strong chelating agents to bind iron if Fe2+ ion exist in oil emulsion. The contents of Fe2+ ion and total iron in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. and Angelica gigas Nakai were higher than those of Prunus persica Stockes and pinus strobus. The content of asocrbic acid in Pinus strobus showed the highest (26.97ppm) among several herb extracts. Electron donating abilities of Pinus strobus and Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. were 79.54% and 77.11%, respectively, which were higher contents than those of Prunus persical Stokes and Angelica gigas Nakai. The SOD-like activity of Prunus persca Stokes showed 0.16 optical density (O.D), which means the most strong antioxidant activity among other herb extracts. The nitrite scavening effects tended to be different depending on pH. Pinus strobus and Angelica gigas Nakai showed 99.8% and 98.6% nitrite scavening effects at pH 1.2. And the effects were decreased as pH was increased. Especially, they didn't show the nitrite scavenging effect in pH 6.0. In conculsin, the Prinus strobus extract among herb extracts were the most effective antioxidant by evaluating several functional tests.

The purpose of this study was to examine the quality characteristics of cookies made with Angelica gigas Nakai fermented by Lactobacillus paracasei. As the content of Angelica gigas Nakai fermented by L. paracasei (AFL) powder increased, the pH of the cookies decreased from 6.3 to 5.2. There was no significant difference in the moisture content depending on AFL powder content. The content of reducing sugar also increased with increasing AFL powder content. Regarding the surface color of the cookies, the L- and b-values decreased with increasing AFL powder content, whereas the a-value increased. As the AFL powder content increased, the total polyphenol content and ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities significantly increased. Cookies with 8% AFL powder (AC8) had the highest levels of 107.16 mg%, 38.69%, and 65.56%, respectively. The texture, adhesiveness, and cohesiveness of the cookies with various AFL powder levels were not significantly different, and hardness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness showed no tendencies toward changes. Taken together, these results showed that when AFL powder was added to cookies, bioactivities such as antioxidant activity increased, making AFL powder a good material with high potential for use in commercially baked products.

It was found that the purified extract from A. gigas Nakai (polysaccharide, M.W., 25 kD) controled differentiating human ES cells. Its optimal supplementation concentration was decided as 0.8 $({\mu}g/ml)$ to efficiently control the differentiation. It also enhanced the cell growth, compared to the control. However, most widely used and commercially available differentiating agent, Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) negatively affected on the cell growth even though it controls the differentiation of ES cells, down to 40-50 % based on morphological observation and telomerase activity. It was presumed that the extract first affected on cell membrane and resulted in controlling signal system, then amplify gene expression of telomere, which enhanced the telomerase activity up to three times compared to the control. LIF only increased the enzyme activity up to two times. It was confirmed that the extract from A. gigas Nakai could be used for substituting currently used differentiation controlling agent, LIF from animal resources as a cheap plant resource and not affecting the cell growth. It can broaden the application of the plants not only to functional foods and their substitutes but also to fine chemicals and most cutting-edge biopharmaceutical medicine.

Anticancer activity of a fraction of the ethanol extract from the root of Korean angelica (Angelica gigas Nakai) was recognized in human cancer cell lines HeLa $S_3$, K-562, and Hep $G_2$. The extract blocked the phorbol ester-inducing megakaryocytic differentiation of K-562 cells, which indicated the modification of protein kinase C (PKC) activity. In vitro assay showed the activation of PKC by the extract. An effective fraction of the Angelica gigas extract, of which $R_f$ value was 0.64 in a thin layer chromatography, was a different component from those of European angelicas. The $ED_50$ value of the fraction was 8, 9, and $16\;\mu\textrm{m}/ml$ against HeLa $S_3\;Hep\;G_2$, and K-562 cells, respectively, while the fraction showed higher $ED_50$ values against normal cell lines.
