Anthocyanins has a strong antioxidant capacity but exhibit poor stability in water. Therefore, stability of anthocyanin from purple potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) was encapsulated by the application of food polymers. Solid formulation of purple potato was prepared using whey protein, tapioca and lecithin by capillary rheometer at $80^{\circ}C$. The ratio of the polymer and potato powder was 2:8. Total phenolic compound, total flavonoid, total anthocyanin and antioxidant activity was investigated by the spectrophotometer. Result revealed that total phenolic compound (TP) ($5321{\mu}g/100g$), total flavonoid (TF) ($1352{\mu}g/100g$) total anthocyanin (TA) ($764{\mu}g/100g$) and free radical antioxidant activity (DPPH) (86%) was higher in 0.01 M acetic acid mediated lecithin based formulation compared to control (Potato powder) (TP: $1357{\mu}g/100g$; TF) ($634{\mu}g/100g$, TA) ($264{\mu}g/100g\;DPPH$) (64%). Lecithin is a strong emulsifier having capacity to extract bioactive compound and encapsulate extracted compound by nonpolar tail and negatively charged head. Therefore, it would be concluded that lecithin might be used as an encapsulating agent for the bioactive compound from purple potato.

Sweet potato has low regeneration capacity, which is a serious obstacle for the fruitful production of transgenic plants. Simple and rapid regeneration method from storage root explants of purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) was investigated. The embryogenic callus was observed from 4 cultivars and its highest rate was induced at 1 μM 2,4-D after 5 weeks of culture. Result revealed that a low concentration of 2,4-D and low light intensity was important factors for embryogenic callus formation. After subculture on medium with 5 μM ABA for 4 days, subsequently, occurred the regeneration of shoots within 4 weeks when these embryogenic callus was transferred onto the MS hormone free medium. Regenerated shoots were developed into platelets, and grown normal plants in the greenhouse. We developed a simple and quickly protocol to regenerate plantlets in storage root explants of purple sweet potato. This regeneration system will facilitate tissue culture and gene transfer research of purple sweet potato.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of nitrite substitution of sausage with purple sweet potato by examining the quality characteristics of sausage. Four sausage samples were prepared as follows: F1 (0.15% sodium nitrite), F2 (0.2% pigment), F3 (0.2% pigment and 5% powder), and F4 (0.2% pigment and 10% powder). A substitution of sodium nitrite with 0.2% purple sweet potato pigment reduced redness while increased yellowness. However, the addition of 5% purple sweet potato powder to 0.2% purple sweet potato pigment increased redness while reduced yellowness, which was similar to those of sausage with 0.15% addition of sodium nitrite. Further, color change increased as the content of purple sweet potato increased. As the amount of purple sweet potato increased, the contents of Ca, K, and Mg increased but hardness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased. In the sensory evaluation, the addition of purple sweet potato did not influence on appearance, color, or flavor. However, the addition of 10% purple sweet potato decreased the taste and texture of sausage. Correlation coefficients between overall acceptability, texture, appearance, color, taste, and flavor were 0.901, 0.895, 0.877, 0.844, and 0.688, respectively. Therefore, proper content of purple sweet potato powder and purple sweet potato pigment were determined to be 5% and 0.2%, respectively, for the substitution of sodium nitrite.

To develop a new traditional liquors using purple-fleshed sweet potato, the condition of alcohol fermentation was investigated by adding different concentrations $(5{\sim}75%)$ of cooked purple-fleshed sweet potato into mash and 10% nuruk, and fermenting for $5{\sim}15$ days. The maximum amount of ethanol (15.4%) was produced when 20% cooked purple-fleshed sweet potato and 10% nuruk were added into mash and fermented by S. cerevisiae at $25^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. The acceptability and physiological functionalities of the purple-fleshed sweet potato liquors were also investigated and compared. PSP-10 purple-fleshed sweet potato liquor prepared by adding 10% cooked purple-fleshed sweet potato into mash showed the best acceptability in the sensory evaluation test and color test $(pink{\sim}red)$; its fibrinolytic, electron-donating, and tyrosinase inhibitory activities were better than those of other purple-fleshed sweet potato liquors and wine.

The antioxidant and neuronal cell protective effects of water extract from purple sweet potato were investigated. The total phenolics and monomeric anthocyanin contents of purple sweet potato extract were 44.25 mg/g and 2,394 mg/L, respectively. The antioxidant activities of purple sweet potato extract were evaluated using various antioxidant tests, including 1,1-diphenyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino- bis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities, ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) and reducing power. In these assays, the extract of purple sweet potato presented significant radical scavenging activities, FRAP, and reducing power in a dose-dependent manner. MTT {3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)- 2,5-diphenyl- tetrazoliumbromide} reduction assay showed significantly increase in cell viability when PC12 cells were pretreated with purple sweet potato extract. Because oxidative stress is also known to increase neuronal cell membrane breakdown, we further investigated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and neutral red uptake assay. Purple sweet potato extract inhibited oxidative stress-induced membrane damage in neuronal cells. Therefore, these data results demonstrated that water extract of purple sweet potato have antioxidant activity and neuronal cell protective effect thus it has great potential as a natural source for human health.

To establish the optimum conditions for the extraction of anthocyanin pigment from purple-fleshed sweet potato, a suitable extraction solvent with the optimum citric acid concentration for acidification of the solvent, and the optimum extraction time and temperature were determined. Twenty percent ethanol solution acidified with citric acid was found to be a good solvent for the extraction of the pigment from purple-fleshed sweet potato. About 10 hour extraction at room temperature was appropriate for the extraction. pH of the extract was below 3 when more than 0.7% citric acid was added. The higher the concentration of citric acid added was, the higher the total optical density (TOD) of the extract was. However, the increase in TOD of the extract was insignificant when more than 1% of citric acid was added. Therefore, addition of 1% citric acid was determined for acidification of the extracting solvent. Though the initial rate of the pigment extraction increased as the extracting temperature increased, extraction at higher temperatures of 60 or 8$0^{\circ}C$ for an extended time caused a decrease in the extraction yield due to degradation of the pigment. The optimum extraction temperature for the anthocyanin pigment from purple-fleshed sweet potato with the solvent used was determined as 4$0^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary purple sweet potato(Ipomoea batatas) powder on serum lipid levels and antioxidative enzymes in normal and pretective effect on hepatotoxicity rats induced by carbon tetrachlolide. Four groups of rats (3-week-old inbred Sprague-Dawley male rats) were normal rats fed control diet(C), induced hepatotoxicity rats fed control diet(EC), normal rats fed purple sweet potato diet(P), and induced hepatotoxicity rats fed purple potato sweet diet(EP). Rats were induced by single injection of 50% carbon tetrachlolide(0.1 mL/100 g B.W., i.p.). The rats were fed ad libitum each of the experimental diet for 5 weeks. After 5 weeks the rats were sacrificed and activities of antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation products were determined in their liver homogenates. But serum concentrations of lipid was not significant in all groups. Serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT/GPT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST/GOT) of the EC and EP groups were heigher than the C and P groups. The hepatic glucose 6-phosphatase(G6Pase) activity of the group fed purple potato diet(P) was lower than the other groups(p<0.05). However, The glutathione peroxidase(GPx) activities was not statistically different between the groups. Renal glutathione S-transferase(GST) activity of the EC and EP groups were lower than the C and P groups(p<0.05). In conclusion, these results suggest that purple sweet potato is believed to be possible protective effect on hepatotoxicity rats induced by carbon tetrachlolide.

The effect of puffing conditions on the physical properties and sensory evaluations of a puffed snack (ppeongtuigi) made of purple sweet potato flour was investigated. The snacks consisted of coated artificial rice with purple sweet potato flour with water, tempered to 7%, 9% and 11% moisture. The coated material was puffed at 236, 241, or $246^{\circ}C$ for 4, 5, or 6 s. The $L^*$ value decreased as the heating time increased. The $a^*$ and $b^*$ values, specific volume, and hardness increased with increasing heating temperature and heating time. Puffed snacks produced under conditions of higher moisture (7%), higher heating temperature ($246^{\circ}C$), or longer heating time (5 s) showed high scores for appearance, color, taste, and overall acceptability in sensory evaluations.

Physicochemical properties and gelatinization patterns of purple-fleshed sweet potato starch were studied. Shape of starch granule was round and polygonal, X-ray diffraction pattern was Ca-type. Amylose content was 14.4% which was lower than that of other sweet potato starch. Water binding capacity was 82.54%, swelling power and solubility at 8$0^{\circ}C$ were 27.94% and 15.35%, respectively. Initial temperature of gelatinization was 72$^{\circ}C$ using Brabender/Visco/Amylograph, consistency and setback were lower than those of other sweet potato starch. The peak temperature and enthalpy determined by DSC were 68.1$^{\circ}C$, 1.24cal/g, respectively. The transmittance of starch dispersions in alkaline solutions increased with NaOH concentration up to 0.17N, and then changed slowly at 0.19N or above. The apparent viscosities were similar to the transmittance of starch dispersions in alkaline solutions, but drastically increased above 0.21N.
