Regarding chemical changes in oriental drugs after food processing such as roasting, fermentation, and extrusion, fifty commonly-used medicinal plants were investigated. As a result, Aurantii nobilis Pericarpium (a tangerine peel from Citrus unshu Markovich) showed remarkably different HPLC profiles after being roasted. An increased peak was isolated by repeated chromatography and identified as 5-hydroxymethyl furfral (5-HMF) by means of instrumental analyses. The 5-HMF content of Aurantii nobilis Pericarpoum reached its maximum level after being roasted for 30 min at 225$^{\circ}C$ (49.2 mg/g extract, ca 42 times of increase over untreated control). Although there were no significant changes in in vitro biological activity such as antioxidative, anti-dementia, anti-hypertension, anti-coagulation, or cytotoxicity, before and after roasting process, our results suggested that simple heat treatment might improve the value of the above oriental drug since 5-HMF has been known to possess inhibitory activities toward nitric oxide formation, tyrosinase, and sickling of red blood cells.

Marine red algae of genus Laurencia are becoming the most important resources to produce unique natural metabolites with wide bioactivities. However, reports related to Laurencia undulata, an edible species used as folk herb, are rarely found to date. In this research, 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (5-HMF) was isolated and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) from Laurencia undulata as well as other marine algae. The following characteristics of 5-HMF were systematically evaluated: its antioxidant activities, such as typical free-radicals scavenging in vitro by electron spin resonance spectrometry (ESR) and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging; membrane protein oxidation; oxidative enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) inhibition; as well as expressions of antioxidative enzymes glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) on the gene level using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. The results demonstrated that 5-HMF could be developed as a novel marine natural antioxidant or potential precursor for practical applications in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical fields.

Twenty-five Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were screened for the highest sugar tolerance, ethanol-tolerance, ethanol production, and inhibitor resistance, and S. cerevisiae KL5 was selected as the best strain. Inhibitor cocktail (100%) was composed of 75 mM formic acid, 75 mM acetic acid, 30 mM furfural, 30 mM hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), and 2.7 mM vanillin. The cells of strain KL5 were treated with ${\gamma}$-irradiation, and among the survivals, KL5-G2 with improved inhibitor resistance and the highest ethanol yield in the presence of inhibitor cocktail was selected. The KL5-G2 strain was adapted to inhibitor cocktail by sequential transfer of cultures to a minimal YNB medium containing increasing concentrations of inhibitor cocktail. After 10 times of adaptation, most of the isolated colonies could grow in YNB with 80% inhibitor cocktail, whereas the parental KL5 strain could not grow at all. Among the various adapted strains, the best strain (KL5-G2-A9) producing the highest ethanol yield in the presence of inhibitor cocktail was selected. In a complex YP medium containing 60% inhibitor cocktail and 5% glucose, the theoretical yield and productivity (at 48 h) of KL5-G2-A9 were 81.3% and 0.304 g/l/h, respectively, whereas those of KL5 were 20.8% and 0.072 g/l/h, respectively. KL5-G2-A9 reduced the concentrations of HMF, furfural, and vanillin in the medium in much faster rates than KL5.

본 연구에서는 옥살산 전처리 바이오매스의 액상가수분해산물에 포함된 발효저해물질을 전기투석과 XAD 수지 처리하여 제거한 후 에탄올을 생산하였다. 전기투석 과정에서 아세트산은 대부분 제거되었으며(95.6%), 비이온성 발효저해물질(Total phenolic compound: TPC, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural: HMF, furfural)은 XAD 수지 처리에 의해 효과적으로 제거되었다. 전기투석과 XAD 수지 처리된 액상가수분해산물로 발효를 수행한 결과 XAD 수지의 침지시간이 짧을수록 에탄올 생산이 향상되었다. 최대 에탄올 생산은 발효 72시간 후 $6.16g/{\ell}$로 전기투석 후 액상가수분해산물을 XAD-4 수지에서 5분 침지하였을 때 나타났다. 리그닌 유래 발효저해물질 중 syringaldehyde는 저농도(1 mM, 2 mM)에서 에탄올 생산을 향상시켰으며 5 mM에서는 발효에 부정적인 영향을 주었다. 리그닌 유래 발효저해물질의 시너지 효과를 확인하고자 합성배지로 발효를 수행하였으며, Syringaldehyde (1 mM)와 ferulic acid (1 mM) 합성배지를 이용하여 발효를 수행한 결과 syringaldehyde보다 ferulic acid의 영향으로 에탄올 생산이 감소했다.

토종꿀과 양봉꿀의 판별의 기준을 마련하고자, 강원도 내의 8개 지역 및 지리산에서 생산되는 토종꿀과 강원도 춘천에서 생산한 양봉꿀 및 외국산 꿀을 다량 수집하여 수분함량과 당조성, pH, HMF함량, 그리고 화분수 분포를 조사하였다. 벌꿀의 수분함량은 토종꿀이 $16.4{\sim}23.0%$이었고, 양봉꿀이 $15.8{\sim}21.0%$로 나타났다. 당조성 분석결과 벌꿀에 함유된 당은 fructose, glucose, maltose, isomaltose 등으로 나타났다. pH는 토종꿀이 $3.3{\sim}4.2$, 양봉꿀은 $3.2{\sim}4.1$로 모두 산성으로 나타났으며 토종꿀과 양봉꿀사이의 차이는 없었다. HMF함량 분석 결과 토종꿀의 HMF함량은 $0.0{\sim}20.4\;mg/kg$이었고 양봉꿀의 HMF 함량은 $0.0{\sim}85.8\;mg/kg$로 저장상태와 저장기간에 따라 HMF의 생성이 가속화되는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 화분수 분포는 토종꿀이 $0.4{\sim}88.3{\times}10^4/g$로 나타났고 양봉꿀은 $0.0{\sim}0.4{\times}10^4/g$로 화분수 분포 차이는 뚜렷이 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 보면 당조성이나 pH, HMF함량 등으로 토종꿀과 양봉꿀을 판별할 수 있는 기준이 되지 못함을 알 수 있었다.

To assess a potential possibility of Deoduck as functional food resources, this study was performed to determine the changes in chemical components and antioxidant activities on Deoduck with various aging conditions; aging temperatures were 60, 70, and $80^{\circ}C$, and aging periods were 5, 10, 15, 30, and 50 days. We determined pH, total acidity, browning index, 5-hydroxymethyl-furfural, total phenolic contents, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of aged Deoduck. Total acidity of aged samples increased during aging treatment, at higher temperature and longer time. The pH value of aged Deoduck ranged from 4.97 to 3.76. Aged Deoduck at $60^{\circ}C$ decreased slowly than 70 and $80^{\circ}C$, and these results were similar in total acidity. 5-HMF and total phenolic contents increased when increased aging temperature and periods. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of Deoduck were ranged from 0.374 to 1.560 mg TEAC eq/g and from 0.302 to 1.745 mg trolox eq/g, respectively.

The objective of this study was to optimize the slurry contents and salt concentrations for ethanol production from hydrolysates of the seaweed Eucheuma spinosum. A monosaccharide concentration of 44.2 g/l as 49.6% conversion of total carbohydrate of 89.1 g/l was obtained from 120 g dw/l seaweed slurry. Monosaccharides from E. spinosum slurry were obtained by thermal acid hydrolysis and enzymatic hydrolysis. Addition of activated carbon at 2.5% (w/v) and the adsorption time of 2 min were used in subsequent adsorption treatments to prevent the inhibitory effect of HMF. The adsorption surface area of the activated carbon powder was 1,400-1,600 m²/g and showed selectivity to 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) from monosaccharides. Candida tropicalis KCTC 7212 was cultured in yeast extract, peptone, glucose, and high-salt medium, and exposed to 80, 90, 100, and 110 practical salinity unit (psu) salt concentrations in the lysates. The 100 psu salt concentration showed maximum cell growth and ethanol production. The ethanol fermentations with activated carbon treatment and use of C. tropicalis acclimated to a high salt concentration of 100 psu produced 17.9 g/l of ethanol with a yield (Y_EtOH) of 0.40 from E. spinosum seaweed.
