To increase the shelf-life of strawberry, samples were treated with two gel packs containing slow-released chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) gas at 3~5 ppm for 6 days at room temperature and the changes in the major chemical components (ascorbic acid, polyphenols, flavonoids and anthocyanin) contents and antioxidative activities (DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging and metal chelating activity) were investigated. The content of ascorbic acid of control was 40.38 mg% and contained 35.67~44.75 mg% during 6 days. There was no tendency to increase or decrease during storage period. The contents of ascorbic acid of control and 3~5 ppm $ClO_2$ gas treated samples were not significantly different during storage period. The content of polyphenol compounds of initial stage was 111.23 mg% and contained 117.78~132.40 mg% during 6 days. The contents of polyphenol compounds of 3~5 ppm $ClO_2$ gas treated samples were 103.51~130.25 mg%. There were no significant different between them during storage. The flavonoids and anthocyanin contents were not different from the control during storage period regardless of 3~5 ppm $ClO_2$ gas treatment. Furthermore, antioxidative activities were not different among the control and $ClO_2$ gas treatments during storage.

In the previous study, we reported the antioxidative activity, antiaging activity, antibacterial activity and moisturizing effect of cream containing Persicaria hydropiper L. extract. In this study, the components of Persicaria hydropiper L. extract were analyzed by TLC and HPLC. Aglycone fractions obtained from the deglycosylation reaction of ethyl acetate fraction among the Persicaria hydropiper L. extract, showed 2 bands and 2 peaks in TLC and HPLC experiments, respectively. Two components were identified as quercetin and kaempferol. TLC chromatogram of ethyl acetate fraction of Persicaria hydropiper L. extract revealed 6 bands and HPLC chromatogram showed 7 peaks, which were identified as quercetin, hyperin, isoquercitrin, quercitrin, kaempferol. In conclusion, with the antioxidative activity, antiaging activity, antibacterial activity and moisturizing effect reported previously, component analysis of Persicaria hydropiper L. extracts could be applicable to new cosmeceuticals.

Kimchi contains various antioxidative components, therefore it is expected that kimchi have the inhibitory activity on aging. Among the many factor related to aging, UV radiation is the easiest way to induce skin aging. This experiment was designed to demonstrate the antioxidative activity of dietary kimchi with and without UV radiation in tissues. Lyophilized Korean cabbage kimchi, mustard leaf kimchi and buchu kimchi were used for measurement of the contents of antioxidative components. Chlorophyll contents in buchu and mustard leaf kimchi were higher than cabbage kimchi, and the contents of carotene and ascorbic acid were higher in the mustard leaf kimchi. To clarify the antioxidative activity of various kimchi diets in vivo system, hairless mice were fed the diet containing 10% lyophilized kimchi for 20 weeks. Contents of superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical in liver were not shown significant differences, however hydrogen peroxide were significantly decreased in mustard leaf and buchu kimchi diet groups. Supplementation of all kinds of kimchi diets attenuated the hepatic NDA accumulation, especially in mustard leaf and leek kimchi group. In the skin, the contents of MDA were decreased in kimchi groups compared to control group, especially the buchu kimchi diet significantly inhibited the lipid peroxidation. To elucidate the effect of kimchi diets on photooxidation, the extent of oxidative damage in liver and skin was measured after UVB radiation treatment. The contents of lipid peroxides was decreased in mustard leaf kimchi group and cabbage kimchi group compared to control, while lipid peroxidation was increased in buchu kimchi diet group. It suggests that chlorophylls and other antioxidative nutrients in the various kimchi diets are related to antioxidation or photooxidation and it might be needed further study to certify the exact mechanisms.

Soybean is an important plant as the source of protein and oil, as well as phytochemicals such as genistien, daidzein, phenolic acids, phytic acid, tocopherol, and saponin. Chungkukjang, a fermented soybean paste, is common in Korean meals and bacillus is usually used in the fermentation of steamed soybean. For its processing, whole soybeans are boiled in water until the beans are soft, and then the drained beans are wrapped with rice straw or starter and set in a warm place at $65^{\circ}C\;for\;3\;\~\;4\;days$. Normally, the remaining cooked water which was drained from the steamed beans is discarded. We supposed that this water possesses hish amounts of useful components, and we therefore developed a modified method using the cooked water. After fermentation, we added the remaining cooked water which had been drained from the beans to the fermented soy beans and boiled them together. To investigate the bio-functionality of the modified Chungkukjang, the total antioxidative activity, isoflavones contents, phenolic acids, and 3-deoxyglucosone (3-DG) were measured at each stage of the preparation of chungkukjang. The original and modified chungkukjang possessed a high antioxidative activity compared with the other samples, as did the drained water after steaming of the soybean. The contents of genistein, daidzein, and phenolic acids, which contained antioxidative activity, were also increased in the original chungkukjang and their contents were similar in the modified chungkukjang. The content of 3-DG was increased in the modified chungkukjang compare with the original. It is suggested that the active soybean components delivered to the drained water during the steaming process were useful for increasing the bio-functionality of the modified chungkukjang.

In addition to the nutritional values, milk has a wide range of bioactive compounds which have been found to be increasingly important for physiological and biochemical functions on human metabolism and health. Bioactive components in milk comprise specific proteins, peptides, lipids and carbohydrates. Especially, milk proteins are known to exert a wide range of nutritional, functional, and biological activities. And milk proteins are considered the most important source of bioactive peptides, including antihypertensive, antithrombotic, antimicrobial, antioxidative, immunomodulatory, and opioid peptides. Many ingredients containing specific bioactive peptides derived from milk protein hydrolysates have been launched on the market and are currently under development. In future studies more emphasis should be given to the health-promoting effect in the well-defined human clinical studies for the successful development of function foods based on the milk-derived bioactive components.

Previously, the methanolic extract of Paeonia moutan seeds was found to potently inhibit soybean lipoxy-genase (SLO). Hence to isolate SLO inhibitor, the defattd methaniolic extract of the seeds was consecutively partitioned wiht ether, ethyl acetate,n-butanol ,adn water. The ether souble fraction showing strong inhibitory activity against SLO was further fractionated into a strongly acidic, a weakly acidic, and a neutral fractions. The strongly acidic components of the ether extract were successively subjected to chromatography on a silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, and preparative HPLC. Four phenolic compounds were isolated , and twio of them showing a strong SLO inhibition activity were identified as luteolin (IC50=2.32$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and 5,6,4'-trihydroxy-7,3'- dimethoxylflavone (IC50=0.31$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) by UV, IR, 1H-& 13C-NMR, and MS spectroscopy. In addition, two flavonoids showed significantly antioxidative activity as strong as that of of $\alpha$-tocopherol (p<0.05) in the autoxidation system of linoleic acid. These results suggest that luteolin and 5,6,4'-trihydroxy-7,3'-dimethoxy-flavone may be used as a potential source of anti-inflammatory agents with antioxidative activity.

Various natural compounds act as antioxidants in protection against lipid peroxidation. Lipid peroxidation yields a variety of decomposition products which have been implicated in not only decreasing the nutritional value of food, but also in developing an off-flavor and toxic substances. As a source of safer and more effective natural antioxidants of natural origin have been widely investigated. Some Indonesian plants have evaluated for their antioxidative activity, and suggested the possible existence of various antioxygenic compounds in them. We attempted to study such antioxygenic compounds with simple method evaluation. As we are interested in the natural product compounds, we examined of several sample such as edible sea-weeds, and some edible fruits. Sea-weed, Eisenia bicyclis, one of the edible brown algae, exhibited the activity. As a traditional food additive consumed by Indonesian, Garcinia parvifolia is used as taste supplement in region West Sumatra, have been studied. Our current studies on the semi-polar fractions shows the activity by the thiocyanate method test. Another sample, Garcinia mangostana, a famous fruit with sweet taste, the part kernel have also evaluated. The acidic fraction of the extract showed antioxidative activity. Some other active components were found in the neutral and BuOH fractions.

This research was conducted to determine the effect of far-infrared ray (FIR) irradiation of grape berries as a potential application for manufacturing grape products with a high amount of antioxidant chemicals. Two grape cultivars, the red grape cv. Campbell Early and the white grape cv. Thompson Seedless, produced increased amounts of crude extracts, in the FIR treatments compared to a non-FIR treatment control with same temperature. However, total phenolic concentrations and antioxidant activity in a 'Campbell Early' increased in the extracts following FIR treatment, whereas those of 'Thompson Seedless' did not increase significantly. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis indicated that functional components affecting antioxidant activity were significantly increased in the extract of 'Campbell Early' following FIR treatment. Our results indicate that application of FIR treatment in heat process of grapes increases levels of antioxidative phenolic chemicals and it may help to enhance the availability of antioxidative compounds in various grape food products.
