This study made macaroon with the addition of Helianthus tuberosus L. powder so as to increase the application of Helianthus tuberosus L. powder (HTP) to food products and look into the quality characteristics depending on an addition ratio. Helianthus tuberosus L. powder 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% were added, respectively, to make macaroon. As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, the moisture content tended to decrease more significantly (p<0.001). As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, lightness and yellowness tended to reduce more significantly (p<0.001). As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, the content of total phenol compounds and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly increased (p<0.001). In terms of texture analysis, hardness, gumminess, cohesiveness and chewiness were significantly increased, as the Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was increased (p<0.05). In terms of sensory test, regarding taste, 0.5% HTP group had the highest points. And as color, flavor, and texture were improved, 1.5% HTP showed the most desirable result in terms of overall acceptability. Results, if Helianthus tuberosus L. powder is added for cooking macaroon, it seems to increase anti-oxidation function and develop functional macaroon with excellent sensory factors.

Helianthus tuberosus is a perennial plant in the genus, Asteraceae. Pork potato has various pharmacological functions such as improving constipation, preventing bowel disease, inhibiting colon cancer, reducing serum cholesterol, lowering blood lipids, and enhancing blood sugar. This study investigated the physicochemical properties of fermented milk by adding Helianthus tuberosus powder. During the fermentation process, the pH of the fermented milk with added Helianthus tuberosus was higher after 16 hours of fermentation. At 48 hours of fermentation, the pH decreased to 3.70, 3.65, 3.63, and 3.59 with 0% (the control group), 1%, 3%, and 5% Helianthus tuberosus added, respectively. In the last 48 hours of fermentation, the acidity increased to 2.35%, 2.57%, and 3.17% with 0% (the control group), 1%, 3%, and 5% Helianthus tuberosus added, respectively. The number of lactic acid bacteria increased as the quantity of Helianthus tuberosus added increased. The highest number of lactic acid bacteria was 9.96 log CFU/g after 16 hours of fermentation with a 5% addition of Helianthus tuberosus . After 48 hours of fermentation, the amount of lactic acid bacteria decreased to 7.84 log CFU/g and 7.88 log CFU/g in the control group and the 1% added Helianthus tuberosus group, respectively. The addition of 3% and 5% Helianthus tuberosus increased the lactic acid bacteria count to 9.48 log CFU/ g and 9.81 log CFU/g, respectively. As the fermentation time increased, oxalic acid and tartaric acid decreased but lactic acid increased. Lactose degraded galactose and glucose over time. After 48 hours of fermentation, the viscosity in the control, 1%, 3%, 5% added Helianthus tuberosus groups increased to 1,006 cP, 1,026 cP, 1,040 cP, and 1,106 cP, respectively. The antioxidant effect was higher in the 5% added Helianthus tuberosus group (84.14%) than in the control group (80.39%) at 48 hours of fermentation. The concentration of polyphenol was 1.6 mg/g and antimicrobial activity was strong against E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics and the hypoglycemic effect of cookies containing Helianthus tuberosus powder (HTP). To examine the effect of adding HTP, cookies with various HTP contents (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%) were made and compared for their quality characteristics. The pH of cookie doughs decreased significantly (p<0.05) as the content of HTP increased. However, the density did not show significant difference among samples. The spread ratio and loss rate in cookies showed significant increase (p<0.05) as the content of HTP increased. However the leavening rate and the hardness of the cookies decreased significantly (p<0.05) when HTP content increased. Color measurement also showed significant difference among samples, although the cookie sample with 10% HTP powder showed the highest scores from consumer tests and liking score, the cookie samples with 30% HTP were selected to measure the hypoglycemic effect of Helianthus tuberosus compared to control cookies and bread. Ten healthy subjects in their twenties participated in measuring blood glucose levels after intake of bread, control cookie, or 30% HTP cookie. Blood glucose level was measured after fasting 12 hours, before eating, and 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after taking the samples. As a result, the blood glucose levels at 30min after meals showed significant (p<0.05) difference among treatments: the lowest when taken the cookies added 30% HTP. However there was no difference in the blood glucose levels at 60min, 90min, and 120min after the sampling.

Helianthus tuberosus is perennial plant as Compositae family and is shown various physiological activities such as analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-spasmodic, aperient, cholagogue, diuretic, spermatogenic, stomachic, and tonic effects. In this study, we investigated the antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory effects of pancake mixture powder (PM) supplemented with H. tuberosus (PMH) in rat skeletal muscle L6 cells and murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells, respectively. PM and PMH inhibited in vitro α-glucosidase activity. Glucose consumption was increased by PM and PMH without cytotoxicity in rat myoblast L6 cells. Western blot analysis revealed that PM and PMH down-regulated glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β activation in L6 cells. PM and PMH inhibited inflammatory mediator, nitric oxide (NO) production without cytotoxicity in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. The anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory effects of PMH was more stronger than those of PM. Anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory effects of PMH would be due to functional characteristics of the supplemented H. tuberosus and the presence of garlic and onion used as ingredients of PM. Taken together, our results that addition of functional materials such as H. tuberosus in product has synergic effects and PMH is potential candidate for treatment of diabetes through inhibiting inflammation.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of sponge cake consisting of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% Helianthus tuberosus powder (HTP). With higher HTP contents in sponge cake, pH of sponge cake batter decreased significantly, whereas specific gravity was increased significantly (p<0.05). Meanwhile volume and symmetry indices of sponge cake were inversely proportional to HTP amounts. With higher HTP content in sponge cake, L value (brightness) of crumb significantly decreased (p<0.05), whereas a value (redness) significantly increased (p<0.05). b value (yellowness) of crumb in 40% and 50% HTP sponge cakes were significantly different from b value of crumb in 10%, 20% and 30% HTP sponge cakes. In 10~40% HTP sponge cake, L value, a value and b value all decreased significantly with higher HTP content in sponge cake. However in 40% and 50% HTP sponge cakes, there was no significant difference in any value. For texture characteristics, hardness of sponge cake significantly increased while cohesiveness decreased (p<0.05) with higher HTP content in sponge cake. On the other hand, springiness and gumminess of sponge cake did not change. Sponge cake containing 10% HTP showed the highest values for every organoleptic property. The results of this study suggest that sponge cake containing 10% HTP is the most appropriate for quality characteristics. This study also provides a way to increase the quality, texture characteristics, and organoleptic properties of sponge cake while reducing HTP content to less than 10% in order to qualify consumer taste.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of rice flour sponge cakes containing 0, 20, 30, 40, and 50% Helianthus tuberosus powder (HTP). As HTP content of sponge cake increased, the pH of sponge cake batter significantly decreased, whereas specific gravity significantly increased (p<0.05). Meanwhile, volume and symmetry indices of sponge cake were inversely proportional to HTP amount. Further, with higher HTP content in sponge cake, L and b values of crumbs significantly decreased (p<0.05), whereas a value significantly increased (p<0.05). L, a, and b values of crust significantly increased with higher HTP content. For texture characteristics, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness of sponge cake significantly increased (p<0.05),whereas cohesiveness did not significantly change. In the sensory evaluation test, rice sponge cake prepared with 10% HTP showed the highest sensory scores in terms of color, flavor, taste, softness properties, and overall preference. The levels of total polyphenol compounds and DPPH radical scavenging activities of rice sponge cakes significantly increased with higher HTP contents (p<0.05). The results of this study suggest that rice sponge cake containing 10% HTP is the most appropriate for quality characteristics and sensory evaluation. This study also provides a way to increase the quality, texture characteristics, and organoleptic properties of sponge cake while reducing HTP content to less than 10% in order to satisfy consumer tastes.

The quality characteristics of Sulgidduk added JA were investigated in moisture content, pH, color, texture, and sensory evaluation. The moisture content of control was 44.22%, but Sulgidduk added JA was 36.10~5.89%. In the change of color, L-value was decreased with degree of JA added. In color analysis, lightness, redness and yellowness of the control showed 84.56, -0.66, and 11.50, respectively. Lightness was decreased, but redness and yellowness was increased against the control when ratio of addition was increased. In the texture analysis of Sulgidduk added JA, hardness was the highest in the control($5958.33\;g/cm^3$) while JA added group was $4,702.24{\sim}5,744.44\;g/cm^3$. The adhesiveness of Sulgidduk added JA had lower value than that of the control according to the ratio of addition. In cohesivenss, Sulgidduk added with 3% of JA showed the highest value as 82.72% while the group with 12% added had the lowest value as 26.03%. The springiness showed no significant difference, but the gumminess significantly differs according to the ratio of addition; the group with 3% of JA added showed the highest value, which showed the tendency of decrease according to the ratio of addition. In the sensory evaluation of Sulgidduk added with JA, the addition of 6% of JA had the highest score in color, taste and overall preference. These results suggest that the suitable amount of JA for making Sulgidduk is 6%.

The physiological properties of water extracts from Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) leaves (JAL) with different extraction processes (stirrer extraction, SE; reflux extraction, RE; autoclave extraction, AE; low temperature high pressure extraction, LTPE) were investigated. The freeze-dried powder yields of SE, RE, AE, and LTPE were 22.33%, 29.88%, 31.65, and 15.74%, respectively. AE showed the highest value of extract yield. The $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were higher in AE compared to other extracts. Total polyphenolics and flavonoids contents in AE was significantly higher than in other extracts. The amount of proanthocyanidin related substances were highest in LTPE (29.36 mg/g), followed by RE (21.57 mg/g), SE (20.35 mg/g), and AE (13.02 mg/g). The electron donating abilities of SE, RE, AE, and LTPE at a concentration of $500{\mu}g/mL$ (w/v) were 76.16%, 39.55%, 25.50%, and 12.59%, respectively. Reducing power for the four different processes was 1.79, 1.60, 1.51, and 1.17, respectively. Additionally the same tendency was observed with electron donating ability and reducing power for ABTS radical and nitrite scavenging abilities. AE and LTPE showed relatively high antioxidant activities. Alpha-glucosidase, xanthine oxidase, and angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activities of LTPE at a concentration of $500{\mu}g/mL$ (w/v) were somewhat higher than other extracts. Additionally, there was significantly higher or little lower inhibitory activity compared to the control group. In conclusion, we provided experimental evidence that extracts of JAL have potential as functional materials, and component analysis of JAL could be used as new cosmeceuticals. Also, LTPE is the superior method for the enhancement of biological activity.
