This study was conducted to investigate the extraction characteristics including total polyphenol compound content (TPC) and the antioxidative effect of Rumex crispus root extract on commercial corn oil. Extraction yield was increased with extraction temperature but decreased with extraction ratio. No significant differences in aromatics content were found among the extracts prepared with various extraction conditions; extraction ratio, extraction temperature, extraction pH and composition of extractant. Total flavonoid content of the extract was increased with extraction temperature and extraction pH, and highest value of it was found when extractant composition of ethanol in water was 75%. Total polyphenol compound content (TPC) of the extract with 10 fold extraction ratio showed the highest value, but no significant difference in TPC was found with extraction temperature. Reducing power and DPPH (${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging ability (RSA) of the extract in spectrophotometric absorbance were decreased with extraction ratio but increased with extraction temperature and showed 63.1%~98.4% and 67.6%~86.7% of those of ascorbic acid in reducing power and DPPH RSA, respectively. The antioxidative effects of the extract on corn oil were 84.8~93.0% of that of commercial butylated hydroxytoluene, the antioxidant index value was highest when the ethanol composition to water in extractant was equal ratio.

The purpose of this study was to investigate quality characteristics of roll bread with the addition of Chungkukjang powder(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%). The antioxidative activity of antioxidative substances produced from several bacterial strains isolated from fermented foods were tested by DPPH $(\alpha,\alpha’-diphenyl-\beta-picrylhydrazyl)$ free radical scavenging activity. The most optimal medium condition for the production of antioxidative substance from Bacillus sp. FF-7 was 2% galactose as carbon source and 1% tryptone as nitrogen source. In color values, with increasing Chungkukjang powder content, the "lightness" (p<0.05) decreased in the crumb bread, while the redness(p<0.05) and yellowness(p<0.05) increased. The volume and specific volume of roll bread with 5.0% Chungkukjang powder were the highest(p<0.05). In the rheology measurements for the roll bread, the hardness (p<0.05) decreased with the addition of 5.0% Chungkukjang powder, but then increased with further additions of Chungkukjang up to 10.0%. Highest sensory scores for color, flavor, taste(p<0.05), texture(p<0.05) and overall acceptance(p<0.05) were obtained from roll bread with 5.0% Chungkukjang powder and control. From the results of this study, it was assumed that the development of food products using Chungkukjang is prospective in response to health-oriented consumers.

In this study, antioxidant and anti-neuroinflammatory of ethanol extracts from walnuts's (Juglans regia L.) shell were investigated in vitro. Radical-scavenging activities of the walnuts's shell ethanol extracts (WSE) were examined by using ABTS radicals and ${\alpha},{\alpha}$-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals assay. In the ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activity, $RC_{50}$ of WSE were measured as 15.74 and $40.13{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Also, to evaluate the anti-neuroinflammatory effects of WSE in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV-2 microglial cells. The production of proinflammatory cytokines NO were examined by LPS in BV-2 cell. BV-2 cells activated with LPS were treated with various doses (10, 25, 50, $100{\mu}g/mL$) of WSE. Supernatants were analyzed for the production of NO using Griess reagent. WSE up to $10{\mu}g/mL$ still required to inhibit NO induced by LPS. These results showed that walnuts's (Juglans regia L.) shell can be used as an easily accessible source of natural anti-neuroinflammatory and natural antioxidants.

After harvesting the medicinal parts of Curcuma longa, the remaining underground parts were discarded. From the remaining underground parts of Curcuma longa quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside-7-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside (Q37) was isolated. The antioxidant activities in vitro and lifespan-extension effect of Q37 were elucidated using the Caenorhabditis elegans. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging effect of Q37 showed similar potent activities in comparison with vitamin C. Q37 also showed potent superoxide quenching activities as measured by the riboflavin- and xanthine-originated superoxide quenching activity tests. Q37 prolonged lifespan of worms under normal culture condition. In terms of protective effect of Q37 on the stress conditions such as thermal and oxidative stresses, Q37-treated worms exhibited enhanced survival rate, as compared to control worms. To know the possible mechanism of Q37-mediated increased lifespan and stress resistance of worms, we examined the activities of Q37on superoxide dismutase (SOD), and invested intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. The results revealed that Q37 was able to elevate SOD activity of worms and reduce intracellular ROS accumulation in a dose-dependent manner.
