Several domestic new varieties of grapes were utilized for the fermentation of wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, NY 21576, Canner, SV 18315, Agawan, and Black Bagal red wines, and Naples, Aligote, and Alicante white wines. The oBx values of the grapes ranged between 17 and $20^{\circ}Bx$. Soluble solid content was adjusted to $21^{\circ}Bx$ by adding sugar for all grapes and fermented at $20^{\circ}C$ for 2 weeks. Black Bagal and Cabernet Sauvignon were relatively slower than other grapes with regard to alcohol production rate. The L value of wine made from Agawan and NY 21576 were lower and darker than those of wines prepared from other grapes. Wine made from NY 21576 grapes had a polyphenol concentration of 1.40 mg/mL, which was higher than that of any other wine, whereas wines made from MBA and all white wines evidenced value of only 0.55 mg/mL and 0.15 mg/mL, respectively, after 2 weeks of fermentation. The sensory evaluations demonstrated that the quality of red wines made from NY 21576, Cabernet Sauvignon, Black Bagal, and that of white wines made from Naples grapes were favorable among the different grape variants.

Polyphenols are naturally occurring antioxidants and play many important roles in human health. Grape leaves have not yet been reported to contain the antioxidants. In this study, the physicochemical properties of powders from young grape leaves, obtained after hot-air or vacuum freeze drying, were analyzed. Weight loss rangedfrom 76-80%, but no difference was found between samples prepared by hot-air orvacuum freeze drying. The L-, a-, and b- values of grape powder all fell upon hot-air drying. Quercetin, resveratrol, catechin, and epicatechin were detected in all cultivars. The contents of the four polyphenols were generally higher in powders obtained by vacuum freeze dryingthan in those prepared by hot-air drying, indicating that vacuum freeze drying is better for optimal preservation of polyphenols. None of three polyphenols assayed was found in some cultivars or after certain drying treatments. Based on physiochemical properties, our findings suggest that powders obtained after vacuum freeze drying are optimal for industrial use.

The aim of this study was to develop a new salting condition that included added maltodextrin (MD) and grape seed extract (GSE) to ensure the microbiological safety and quality of salted shredded Korean cabbage. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to analyze the effects of four independent variables (NaCl concentration, salting duration, MD concentration, and GSE concentration). The following response variables were evaluated: reduction in total aerobic bacteria, yeast, and mold counts; weight loss and salt content; and taste, texture, and overall acceptability of salted shredded Korean cabbage. The optimal salting conditions include a combination of 10.09~10.32% NaCl, 9.45~10.00% MD, and 234~300 ppm GSE in a ternary salting solution and a salting duration of 5.68~5.94 hr. This optimal combination reduced total aerobic bacterial and yeast/molds counts by 3.33 and 1.45 log CFU/g, respectively, while maintaining high sensory scores for taste, texture, and overall acceptability of the salted shredded Korean cabbage. In addition, the optimal conditions yielded more acceptable weight loss and salt content characteristics. The results suggest that use of the optimized combination of salting conditions can improve the microbiological safety and quality of salted shredded Korean cabbage used for commercial kimchi production.

Gel-type fermented milk was prepared from milk or mixture of milk and apple juice/grape juice. Acid production (pH change) and growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus (KCTC 2182) were studied. The effects of juice addition on sensory property of fermented milk were also studied. The pH value of samples containing mixture of milk and apple juice/grape juice (25 mL : 25 mL to 5 mL : 45 mL) was lower than that of milk sample. However, number of viable cells of L. acidophilus at 21 hr in milk and samples containing juices was similar. During lactic fermentation for 24 hr, pH of all samples dropped significantly between 6 hr and 21 hr. pH values of mixture of milk and juices were lower than that of milk sample. Growth curve showed that lag phase continued to approximately 3 hr and log phase continued to approximately 15 hr in all samples. Number of viable cells in all samples was similar Sensory evaluation showed that overall acceptability of fermented milk prepared from apple juice/grape juice and milk (15 mL : 35 mL or 5 mL : 45 mL) was better than that of reference sample. The optimum ratio of mixture of juice and milk was 15 mL : 35 mL. The score values of sensory test of fermented milk prepared from mixture of grape juice and milk were slightly higher than those of mixture of apple juice and milk.

We investigated the mechanism on occurring of briny injury in four fruit species (apple, pear, grape, peach). Briny injury of apple, pear, peach, and grape was induced by the foliar splay of saline solutions. Browning symptom was initiated one hour after the spray of 3% NaCl in apple, pearl and peach trees. while two hour were needed for grape, but the latter developed the symptom faster than the formers. Foliar spray of 3% NaCl resulted in 4-fold increase in ethylene production 24 h after the spray, and the production was returned to early stage rate after 72 h. Ethylene production of control was nearly constant with slight decrease after 4 h. Browning and defoliation response to the spray of 3% NaCl on lower side were not different from the spray on both sides regardless of fruit species, while no injury symptoms occurred by the spiny on upper side. In saline damage for treated date, lateral bud was only germinated in apple at 30 July. A shoot apex was 100% grew in all fruit tree. In result for hormonal content of leaf and shoot apex, control was high t-zeatin content in leaf. However, IAA and ABA content was increasing in high saline concentration.

The effect of pectinase on wine production and quality during wine fermentation was investigated in an experiment a laboratory scale (2 kg grape/5 L tank). Experimental results show that the enzyme-treated sample displayed a 13% higher rate of grape juice production compared to control (enzyme-untreated). In the case of color analysis, the addition of pectinase improved the color quality of wine in terms of both color intensity and hue values. The results show that pectinase enhanced both dark-red color and clarity of wine during the fermentation period. Further, the methanol concentration of the wine sample treated with pectinase reached 225.32 mg/L (control: 100.72 mg/L) due to hydrolysis of pectin. Sensory analysis after fermentation showed that pectinase significantly increased the color, smell, taste, and touch intensity scores of wines compared to control.

To elucidate the effect of sucrose on cell growth and anthocyanin production, 1, 3, 5, and 7% sucrose were applied to liquid MS basal medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BA + 0.1 and 1 mg/L 2,4-D. Higher sucrose concentration decreased the cell growth regardless of the hormonal composition. Cain in fresh weight was gradual, showing the peak at day 12 in culture, and then decreased. Anthocyanin content increased with sucrose concentration in the medium, and practically there was no difference in anthocyanin content between the two media differing in 2,4-D content. Sucrose concentration for appropriate anthocyanin production was 7%, while 5% was more suitable for increase in total anthocyanin content. At higher sucrose levels, anthocyanin content was high due to the cessation of the cell growth. Medium pH decreased at the early stage and gradually increased thereafter.

This study was attempted to investigate the changes of chemical components by different yeast strains during alcohol fermentation at $12^{\circ}C$. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae+Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe were inoculated in the Seibel grape must, respectively. Sch. pombe began to metabolize malic acid after 4 days fermentation actively and utilized approximately 54% of initial malic acid. Ethanol contents of S. cerevisiae, S. cerevisiae+Sch.. pombe and Sch. pombe were 11.5%, 11.2%, and 10.0%, respectively. The fermentability of Sch. pombe was slower than that of S. cerevisiae. The production of sulfite showed a positive linear relationship with the yeast growth (P<0.01). Sensory scores indicated that the wine samples fermented by S. cerevisiae and Sch. pombe were not significantly different in color, odor, after taste and overall acceptability. Especially, the taste of Sch. pombe was significantly better than that of S. cerevisiae (P<0.05).

This study was conducted to evaluate the synergistic protective effects of mixtures of corn silk, perilla leaf and grape stem extract (CPG mixture) against UVB-induced skin damage and compound 48/80-induced pruritus in mice. The results showed that treatment with CPG mixture exhibited much stronger suppressive effect on erythema and melanin index as well as melanin formation than treatment with ascorbic acid (AA) in UVB-irradiated mice. Moreover, the treatment with CPG mixture showed ameliorative effect on immune cell infiltration and collagen fiber destruction in UV-irradiated mice. The treatment with CPG mixture inhibited glutathione (GSH) depletion, lipid peroxidation and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in UVB-irradiated mice. Furthermore, the treatment with CPG mixture inhibited compound 48/80-induced scratching behavior and histological changes in mice. Taken together, these results indicated that CPG mixture has potentials as functional and therapeutic materials against skin damage and itch-related skin diseases.

Detail management standard on soil conditions in 'Kyoho' grapes were not yet made. Therefore, this study was carried out to investigate the optimum soil environmental conditions on production of high fruit quality in 'Kyoho' grapes. We established using correlation between fruit quality and soil condition. These results were used to develop soil management guideline with promoting efficiency and minuteness in grape vineyard. Soil conditions were analyzed at total 80 vineyards in major grape producing areas such as Ansung, and Cheonan (40 orchards an area). The soil environmental factors affected fruit weight were soil pH of 36.6%, cultivation layer depth of 23.3%, and cation of 17.8%. The soil condition factors affected sugar content were soil hardness of 24.4%, cation of 24.1% and organic matter content of 22.1%. Cultivation layer depth, soil texture, and phosphate content were low as relative contribution. Coloring was involved with organic matter content, CEC (cation exchange capacity), and saturated hydraulic conductivity. while soil pH, cultivation layer depth, and phosphate content showed low contribution. Finally, relative contribution on fruit quality related with sugar content, fruit weight, and coloring were soil hardness of 28.0%, organic matter content of 25.0%, soil pH of 12.9%.
