The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of stabilization of retinyl palmitate (RP) on its skin permeation and distribution profiles. Skin permeation and distribution study were performed using Franz diffusion cells along with rat dorsal skin, and the effect of drug concentration and the addition of pectin on skin deposition profiles of RP was observed. The skin distribution of RP increased in a concentration dependent manner and the formulations containing 0.5 and 1 mg of pectin demonstrated significantly increased RP distributions in the epidermis. Furthermore, it was found that skin distribution of RP could be further improved by combined use of pectin and ascorbyl palmitate (AP), due largely to their anti-oxidative effect. These results clearly demonstrate that the skin deposition properties of RP can be improved by stabilizing RP with pectin. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that pectin could be used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations as an efficient stabilizing agent and as skin penetration modulator.

At present, there are few research papers on skin penetration of cosmeceutical ingredients. What is worse is that in vivo studies are hard to find. In this study, we measured skin epidermal penetration of cosmeceutical ingredients using in vivo Raman spectroscopy and compared with the results obtained from experiments using in vitro franz cell. Results showed that ascorbyl-2-glucoside, retinol, retinyl palmitate, and kojic acid were good for penetration ratio in measurement in vitro and retinol, vitamin C, and arbutin were good in measurement in vivo. Among them, retinol was best in skin penetration in vivo experiment using Raman spectroscopy and ascorbyl-2-glucoside was best in skin penetration in vitro experiment using Franz cell system. It is estimated that the differences were originated from the experimental procedures of two different methods; in vivo Raman experiment can be sensitive to the effect of epidermis and dermis as characteristics of matter by estimating the stratum corneum and in vitro measurement is evaluation of material to penetrate skin of hairless mouse. However, most penetration barrier is the stratum corneum, thus it is important to examine movement of material in the stratum corneum. We expect that these results provided useful information for many cosmetic related research.

The antioxidative effect of tea extracts from green tea, oolong tea and black tea was investigated. The extraction yields of crude catechin were green tea 5.4%, oolong tea 3.5%, and black tea 2.5%. Green tea, oolong tea and black tea of crude catechin showed antioxident activity at concentrations of 200ppm, and the oolong tea showed highest antioxidant effect. The browning intensities(at 420 nm) of green, oolong and black tea were 0.140, 0.582 and 0.915, respectively and green tea showed highest hydrogen donating ability(HDA) and than followed by oolong or black tea. Also, when the crude catechin(100 ppm) was used in combination with ${\alpha}$-tocopherol(50 ppm) and ascorbyl palmitate(50 ppm), the crude cathechin showed very strong synergistic effect, comparable to that of crude catechin(200 ppm).

Relative effectiveness of antioxidants with their synergists was investigated by measuring AOM stability of palm oil and beef tallow during heating. TBHQ added at a concentration of 0.02% gave the highest AOM stability to palm oil among the antioxidants tested at the equivalent concentration. Beef tallow with added TBHQ showed a higher AOM stability than those with α-tocopherol$({\alpha}-toc)$ and a mixture of BHA and BHT, but showed a lower AOM stability than those with {$\delta}-rich$ tocopherol$({\delta}-toc)$ and mixed tocopherol(m-toc). Addition of ${\alpha}-toc$ to palm oil and beef tallow increased the AOM stability less than a mixture of BHA and BHT. Palm oil and beef tallow with added ${\delta}-toc$ and m-toc showed higher AOM stabilities than that with ${\alpha}-toc$, and there was no significant difference in AOM stability noted between ${\delta}-toc$ and m-toc. The synergistic effects of citric acid to ${\alpha}-toc\;and\;{\delta}-toc$ and of ascorbyl palmitate to ${\delta}-toc$ was noted higher in beef tallow than in palm oil, while that of ascorbyl palmitate to ${\alpha}-toc$ was higher in palm oil than in beef tallow.

Storage stabilities of ramyons fried in palm oil and beef tallow with added antioxidants and their synergists were investigated by comparing the changes in physicochemical parameters and n-hexanal concentrations of oils extracted from ramyons during storage. Ramyons fried in palm oil and beef tallow with added ${\delta}-tocopherol$ $({\delta}-toc)$ showed an enhanced storage stabilities when compared to those fried in the oils with ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ $({\alpha}-toc)$. Ascorbyl palmitate was found to be a better synergist than citric acid for the antioxidant activity of both ${\delta}-toc\;and\;{\alpha}-toc$. Phenolic antioxidants gave a better storage stability than tocopherol when ramyon was fried in beef tallow, while a mixture of BHA and BHT gave an inferior storage stability than${\alpha}-toc$ when ramyon was fried in palm oil. The effectiveness of the antioxidants tested on storage stability of stored ramyon had a close relationship to the n-hexanal concentration. On the other hand, the paramenters such as peroxide value, carbonly value, and conjugated diene concentration showed inconsistency during the course of the storage experiment.

This study was conducted in order to evaluate the effect of gamma irradiation on improvement of the quality and safety of meat products. Emulsion type bologna sausages were manufactured with 3 kGy gamma irradiated ground beef. Beef patties were also manufactured with the addition of antioxidants (200 ppm, BHA, ascorbyl palmitate, ${\alpha}-tocopherol,\;or\;{\beta}-carotene$) following gamma irradiation of 1.5 or 3 kGy. Bologna sausages could be successfully manufactured with 3 kGy gamma irradiated ground beef and lower salt content(NaCl of 1.0 or 1.2% and phosphate of 0.2 or 0.3%) without any deteriorative results when compared with the products manufactured with regular salt content(NaCl of 1.5~2.0% and phos phate of 0.4~0.6%). No colony formations of aerobic microorganisms were observed in the sausage with NaCl of 1.2% and phosphate of 0.2 or 0.3% up to 30 days storage at $10^{\circ}C$. No significant differences appeared in the TBA values among all the sausages during storage for 30 days. No colonies of aerobic microorganisms were observed in the 3 kGy irradiated patty. Lipid oxidation of the beef patties was inhibited by the addition of an antioxidant.

Structured lipid (SL) containing conjugated linoleic and caproic acid was produced from soybean oil through lipase-catalyzed reaction, and its oxidative stability was compared. When heated at $60^{\circ}C\;or\;150^{\circ}C$, soybean oil as control was more susceptible to oxidation than SL. When the antioxidants, such as ascorbyl palmitate, tea polyphenol, alpha-tocopherol, and rosemary extract, were added in SL, the induction periods of each antioxidant treats in SL were increased. The tea polyphenol showed the most effective antioxidant activity among them. When the emulsion form with SL was heated from oxidation, its oxidation stability was reduced compared to SL. The oxidation stability were also observed in photooxidation of SL.

Analytical methods for food antioxidants including ascorbic acid, erythorbic acid, ascorbyl palmitate (AP), and ascorbyl stearate (AS), were validated using high performance liquid chromatography. Validation parameters such as linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), and recovery were tested using lard and cider as food model systems. Linearity of ascorbic acid and erythorbic acid were both higher than ($R^2$> 0.99), LOD of these compounds were 0.46 and 0.48 ${\mu}g/mL$, respectively and LOQ were 1.39 and 1.45 ${\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The recovery rates of these compounds were 86.35-94.78% and 84.76-95.02%, respectively. However, the concentration of AP and AS decreased in methanol stock solution. Four other solvents including ethanol, acetonitrile, mixture of methanol and acetonitrile, and mixture of ethanol and acetonitrile were tested to increase the stability of AP and AS under room temperature and refrigerated temperature. Ethanol provided better stability of AP and AS under both room and refrigerated temperature. This study can help to accurately analyze the content of ascorbic acid and its derivatives in processed foods.
