To examine the effective use of seaweeds, sea tangle (Laminaria japonica) was extracted with water and the resultant extracts were fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Four strains of S. cerevisiae were cultured in aqueous extracts from sea tangle. S. cerevisiae SC-2, which was isolated from a traditional Korean fermented food (Meju), was selected for further study based on the results of a sensory evaluation. No significant differences in proximate compositions, such as moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash, of the sea tangle extracts before and after fermentation were observed. The reducing sugar decreased as the fermentation period increased, and the contents of some free amino acids were also affected by S. cerevisiae SC-2 fermentation. However, the content of glutamic acid, which is a major taste compound in sea tangle extract, was not affected by fermentation for up to 36 hr by the SC-2 strain. To determine the antioxidant activity of fermented sea tangle extract (fermented for 36 hr by SC-2 strain), the radical scavenging activities of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide, and nitric oxide were investigated and xanthin oxidase inhibition assay was performed. The antioxidant activity increased by 8 to 35%. The greatest enhancement of antioxidant activity was seen in the superoxide radical scavenging assay with $100\;{\mu}g/mL$ of raw and fermented sea tangle extract. The anti-inflammatory activity of fermented sea tangle extract was also enhanced. The fermented sea tangle extract showed 34.2% inhibitory activity against nitric oxide synthesis versus 11.9% for raw sea tangle extract at $100\;{\mu}g/mL$ concentration. These results suggest that fermented aqueous extracts from sea tangle are a useful resources.

This study was conducted to evaluate the potential of a microbial fermentation procedure to improve the functional qualities of seaweeds. Aspergillus oryzae, which has been used in traditional Korean fermented foods, was inoculated and cultivated in an aqueous extract of sea tangle (Laminaria japonica). Fermentation of the sea tangle extract by A. oryzae for 4 days resulted in a 3-fold increase in $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content. GABA is known to be a bioactive compound. Fungal fermentation of the extract also enhanced its antioxidant activity and increased its total content of phenolic compounds. It was assumed that these changes stemmed from the biodegradation of active compounds of the sea tangle packaged within its rigid structural matrix or occurred as result of fungal fermentation. These results suggested that the application of microbial fermentation to the processing of seaweeds will help in the development of processed foods to meet consumer demands.

The Laminaria japonica Aresch (Sea tangle) belongs to the brown algae and has a long history as a food material in Asia, including Korea. Recent studies have found that the fermented Sea tangle extract (FST) inhibited the differentiation of osteoclasts and protected osteoblasts from oxidative damage. This study aims to explore the possibility that FST can induce the differentiation of osteoblasts and identify the responsible mechanism. According to our results, FST induced differentiation into osteogenic cells in the presence of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells under non-toxic conditions.. This finding was confirmed by phalloidin staining, increased alkaline phosphatase activity, and calcium deposition. Additionally, it was found that this process was achieved by increasing the expression of key factors involved in osteoblast differentiation, such as runt-related transcription factor-2, osterix, β-catenin, and bone morphogenetic protein-2. Moreover, FST increased autophagy, which may contribute to the maintenance of the bone formation homeostasis, and is associated with the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways. Although further research about the bioactive substances contained in FST and the tests of their efficacy are required, the results of this study indicate that FST has incredible applicability as a functional material for maintaining the bone homeostasis.

활성산소는 많은 경우에 성인병, 염증, 암, 동맥경화 등과 관련되어 있다. 따라서 항산화물질의 섭취는 성인병 예방이나 치료에 도움이 될 수 있다. 보리, 쑥, 다시마, 대두는 자연식품으로 항산화물질을 포함하고 있다. 이들을 발효시켰을 때, 원재료에 비해 항산화도가 증가할 수 있는지 여부를 결정하였다. 항산화도를 결정하기 위해서는 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)를 이용하였다. 보리, 쑥, 다시마, 대두를 Bacillus licheniformis Bl으로 발효 시켰을 때, ethanol 추출 발효산물의 항산화도는 원재료에 비해 각각, 2.6, 1.6, 2.7, 1.7배로 증가하였다. 또한,250∼300 nm에 걸쳐 발효대두의 ethanol 추출성분의 peak 영역이 대두의 것에 비해 뚜렷하게 높았으며, 이는 이런 구성성분의 차이가 양 항산화도의 차이와 관련되어 있을 가능성을 제시해 준다. Paraquat는 Escherichia coli내부에서 활성산소를 만들어 균의 성장을 억제하는 것으로 알려져 있다. Ethanol로 추출한 발효대두 성분은 paraquat 의한 균의 억제를 회복시킬 수 있었다. 이는 발효대두 성분이 체내에서도 이용될 수 있는 가능성을 보여준다.

To enhance the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content, the optimized fermentation of soybean with added sea tangle extract was evaluated at 30℃ and pH 5.0. The medium was first inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae strain FMB S46471 and fermented for 3 days, followed by the subsequent inoculation with Lactobacillus brevis GABA 100. After fermentation for 7 days, the fermented soybean showed approximately 1.9 g/kg GABA and exhibited higher ACE inhibitory activity than the traditional soybean product. Furthermore, several peptides in the fraction containing the highest ACE inhibitory activity were identified. The novel fermented soybean enriched with GABA and ACE inhibitory components has great pharmaceutical and functional food values.

${\gamma}$-Aminobutyric acid-enriched sea tangle extract was obtained from the fermentation of Lactobacillus brevis BJ-20. The fermented sea tangle extract (FST) was separated into three fractions by molecular weight: FST I (greater than 10 kDa), FST II (1-10 kDa), and FST III (less than 1 kDa). The anti-inflammatory characteristics of the FST fractions were investigated by measuring the production of nitric oxide (NO) and the expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse macrophage (RAW 264.7) cells. Both NO production and iNOS expression levels were significantly inhibited by FST treatments in a dose-dependent manner. FST III was the most effective inhibitor of processes. This demonstrates that the effect of FST on LPS-induced inflammation might be closely correlated with the inhibition of inflammatory cytokine expression.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties and physiological activities of jelly prepared from gelatin, sugar, bokbunja extract, and different amounts (0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 3%) of fermented sea tangle Saccharina japonica powder (FSP). The jelly moisture, pH, and sugar content slightly increased with increasing the FSP content. Hardness, springiness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness also increased with increasing FSP concentration. Jelly antioxidant activity did not change significantly with increasing FSP. In contrast, alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase activities in the jellies increased significantly with increasing FSP concentration. β-secretase inhibitory activity in jellies also increased with increasing FSP concentration. Jellies containing 0.5 or 1% FSP achieved the highest overall sensory acceptance scores. Taken together, these data indicate that addition of FSP to jelly appears to improve its quality and physiological activities.

Natural seasoning are trends of food industries to replace synthesized seasoning due to consumer preference. However, unexpected results can be happened in a point of sensory evaluation and physico-chemical properties by adding natural seasoning such as reduced flavor, color change and so on. Therefore, this study aimed to verify the potential of sea tangle Saccharina japonica extract fermented by lactic acid bacteria (STE) for myungran (pollock roe)-jeot instead of present synthesized seasoning. Among various STE concentration (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) in myungranjeot, there was no significant physicochemical changes in a point of crude lipid, pH, total acidity, salinity and color difference. Microbiological profiles was also not significantly different. The 10% STE-myungran-jeot showed higher ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content as 24.4 mg/100g at free amino acid analysis than other STE-myungran-jeot without decline of sensory properties. In overall, it revealed that STE could replace the synthesized seasoning and improve the quality of Myungran-jeot. The results suggest that STE can be useful to develop a Korean traditional fermented food.

중심합성계획법을 이용한 반응표면분석에 따라 다시마 추출액으로 tea fungus 발효 특성을 모니터링 하였으며, 그 발효액의 관능적 검사를 하였다. 그 결과, 다시마 추출액을 이용한 산형 발효 음료 제조시 산도는 $0.0318{\sim}0.8904$, pH는 $0.64{\sim}2.18$, 당도는 $0.6{\sim}8.0$ 및 겔 두께는 $0{\sim}17.5$ mm 등으로 처리구에 따라 큰 변화가 있었으며, 산의 함량이 가장 높은 처리구는 알코올 함량 2.00%, 당 함량 10.17% 및 감귤과즙 함량 1.99%이었고, 그때 예측된 산도는 0.94였다. 부수적으로 배양액 표면에 생성되는 겔은 알코올 함량 1.98%,당 함량 10.94% 및 감귤과즙 함량이 1.62%일때 최대치 20.13 mm를 나타내었다. 겔이 생성될 때 다량의 유기산이 소모되므로 적정량의 유기산을 함유한 발효액을 수거하기 위해서는 겔의 생성을 저해하면서 발효액의 유기산을 확보할 수 있는 방법이 고안되어야 할 것으로 사료된다. 관능검사 결과, 전체적인 기호도에서는 알코올 함량 1.0%, 당 함량 10.0%, 감귤과즙 4.0% 첨가구가 $3.67{\pm}0.58$로 가장 높게 평가되었다. 감귤과즙 첨가 유무는 기호도에 크게 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 보이며 다시마 추출액만 이용하여 발효하여도 다시마 특유의 비린내는 사라지고 발효가 진행되면서 생성되는 유기산에 의해 마시기에 적절한 발효액이 될 것으로 판단된다.
