Background: Sorghum is a major cereal food crop used in many parts of the world. It has been grown on a subsistence level by farmers, under various conditions of environmental stresses in the semi-arid tropics of Africa and Asia. This plant has received significant attention because of its ability to reduce cholesterol in the blood, and its anti-dementia, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. It is possible to develop a functional and commercially viable sorghum variety by using superior cultivars of sorghum. The objective of this study was to build a database of superior sorghum accession. Methods and Results: We used 250 sorghum accessions collected from different geographical bioregions in Korea. We determined various agronomic characters including germination rate and ear length of these accessions. To determine the antioxidant capacity, we measured the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)-diammonium salt radical scavenging activity, total phenolic contents, and total flavonoid contents. Accession 189 showed higher germination (> 80%) than the other accessions. Higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity was observed in 11-SB-078 ($RC_{50}$; $1.89{\pm}2.88{\mu}g/m{\ell}$), and higher 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)-diammonium salt radical scavenging activity was recorded in 11-SB-116 ($RC_{50}$; $35.48{\pm}2.42{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) than in the other accessions. The ear length ranged from 15 cm to 48 cm, the total phenolic contents ranged from $3mg{\cdot}GAE/g$ to $77mg{\cdot}GAE/g$, and total flavonoid contents ranged from $0.09mg{\cdot}QE/g$ to $1.07mg{\cdot}QE/g$. Conclusions: Among 250 sorghum accessions, we selected 10 with both superior agronomic characters and highly functional food quality.

죽염된장의 발효기간(3년, 6년)과 죽염의 구운 횟수($3{\times}$, $9{\times}$)에 따른 항산화 및 HT-29 암세포에서 in vitro 항암 효과를 측정하였다. 죽염된장의 발효 기간에 따른 pH 및 아미노태 질소, 암모니아태 질소 함량은 3B-S($3{\times}$, 삶은 콩)를 제외하고는 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 6Y9B-D(6년, $9{\times}$)가 유의적으로 가장 함량이 높았다(P<0.05). DPPH free radical 소거 효과에서는 6Y3B-D(6년, $3{\times}$)는 $34.1{\pm}0.4%$, 6Y9B-D는 $38.2{\pm}2.5%$, hydroxyl radical 소거 효과 역시 6Y3B-D는 $80.8{\pm}0.9%$, 6Y9B-D는 $86.2{\pm}2.0%$로 높은 소거 효과를 나타내었다. HT-29 인체 대장암세포를 이용한 암세포 성장 억제 효과 역시 6Y3B-D는 $65.9{\pm}2.4%$, 6Y9B-D는 $72.8{\pm}1.7%$로 가장 높은 성장 억제율을 나타내었다. TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6과 iNOS, COX-2 염증 유발 인자에서 6Y9B-D군이 유의적인 차이를 보이며 mRNA의 발현을 가장 많이 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 장기간 숙성된 6년 죽염된장이 3년 죽염된장보다 항산화, 항암 효과가 뛰어났고, 3회 죽염보다 9회 죽염을 첨가한 된장이 천일염과 정제염을 혼합해 제조한 시판된장보다 항산화, 항암 효과가 더 우수했다.

본 연구는 전통적인 발효식품인 식해에 대하여 염농도에 따른 발효기간별 품질특성, 발효 최적조건 및 유통기한 설정, 발효 최적조건에서의 생리활성을 측정하여 우리 전통식품인 식해를 저염화하고 생산 보급함과 동시에 이에 대한 과학적 자료를 제공하는 것을 목표로 하였으며 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 본 연구에서 제조한 오징어 식해는 발효기간에 경과함에 따라 염농도가 낮고 온도가 높을수록 pH는 급격하게 감소하였으며, 아미노질소 및 휘발성 염기질소의 함량은 급격하게 증가하였다. 발효최적조건은 5% 염농도의 식해를 $-1^{\circ}C$에서 53일간 발효한 것이었고 유통기한은 염농도 5%의 식해를 $-1^{\circ}C$에서 142일간 저장한 것이었다. 식해는 DPPH 저해활성이 확인되어 항산화 효과가 있으나, hydrolxyl 및 hydrogen peroxide radical 소거능, 항당뇨, 항대장암 및 주름제거 활성은 낮아 기능성 소재로의 활용은 보충연구가 필요하다고 판단된다. 유리아미노산의 조성은 정미 아미노산이 고미 아미노산보다 많아 맛에서 우수하였으며, 시판중인 다른 수산발효식품과 관능적으로 큰 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과를 고려할 때 $-1^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 식염 5%로 식해를 저염화 시킨다면 현대인의 식기호에 적합한 식품으로 영양학적 측면이나 시장성 측면에서 큰 효과를 낼 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of Korean yam (Dioscorea batatas $D_{ECNE.}$) by different extraction solvents including 70% methanol, 70% ethanol and chloroform-methanol mixture (CM, 2:1, v/v). Raw yam was analyzed for its color property, total phenol content and antioxidant activity. Yam possessed high $L^*$ value and $H^{\circ}$ value, which were $81.64{\pm}2.59$ and $83.36{\pm}0.15$, respectively. Raw yam was found to have great antioxidant activity evaluated through ABTS [2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt] radical scavenging activity, DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and ferric reducing antioxidant power. Total phenol contents of various extracts from raw yam increased in the following order: 70% methanol extract ($37.62{\pm}0.88mg\;CAE/g$), 70% ethanol extract ($43.38{\pm}0.66mg\;CAE/g$) and CM extract ($67.17{\pm}0.12mg\;CAE/g$), respectively. The same trend was also could be found in the ABTS radical scavenging activity, DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power assays. These results implied that Korean yam might play an important role in antioxidation and serve as the bio-health functional food to take a good part in prevention of human diseases and aging.

This study was performed to evaluate and compare the antioxidant substance content and antioxidant activities of white (Superior) and colored (Hongyoung, Jayoung, Jasim, Seohong, and Jaseo) potatoes. The potatoes were extracted with 80% ethanol and were evaluated for the total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents and for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)/2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and ferrous metal ion chelating effect. The total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents of Hongyoung and Jayoung were higher than white and other colored potatoes. All colored potato extracts, except for Jaseo and Seohong, showed higher ABTS radical scavenging activities than the general white potato extract. Hongyoung and Jayoung had the highest ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities. Optical density values for the reducing power of Jayoung and Jaseo at concentration of 2 mg/mL were 0.148 and 0.090, respectively. All colored potato extracts had lower ferrous metal ion chelating effect than the white potato. A significant (P<0.05) positive correlation was observed between total polyphenol content and total flavonoid content (r=0.919), anthocyanin content (r=0.992), and ABTS radical scavenging activity (r=0.897). Based on these results, this research may be useful in developing the Hongyoung and Jayoung cultivars with high antioxidant activities.

Oxidative stress and inflammation are important events in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases including arthritis, atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension. Cynomorium songaricum (CS) has been used as a traditional Korean herbal medicine, and it is currently used in traditional clinics to treat frequent urination, spermatorrhea, weakness of the sinews and constipation in the folk medicine. The aim of this study was to determine whether fractionated extracts of CS inhibit free radical generation such as DPPH radical, superoxide radical, nitric oxide and peroxynitrite, production of nitrite an index of NO, $PGE_2$, iNOS, COX-2 and pro-inflammatory cytokines in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated RAW 264.7 macrophages. Cytotoxic activity of extracts on RAW 264.7 cells was measured using 5-(3-caroboxymeth-oxyphenyl)-2H-tetra-zolium inner salt (MTS) assay. Our results indicated that the most superior extract which scavenged DPPH radical, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and RNS was CS ethyl acetate extract (CSEA). Moreover, CSEA significantly inhibited the LPS-induced NO, $PGE_2$ production and iNOS, COX-2 expression accompanied by an attenuation of TNF-$\alpha$, IL-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 formation in macrophages. Furthermore, CSEA treatment also blocked LPS-induced intracellular ROS production and the activation of NF-${\kappa}B$. These findings indicate that CSEA inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines via the suppression of ROS production and NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. Take together, these results indicate that CSEA has the potential for use as an natural anti-oxidant and an agent of anti-chronic inflammatory diseases.

A self-oscillating interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) poly(acrylic acid)/poly(ethylene glycol) (PAA/PEG) hydrogel was prepared by using radical polymerization with a two-step method. The IPN hydrogel was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and morphological analysis. The results indicated that the chains of PEG and PAA twined to form porous structure which is beneficial to water molecules entering inside of the hydrogel. In addition, the pH-responsive behavior, salt sensitivity, swelling/de-swelling oscillatory behaviors and self-oscillation in a closed pH oscillator were also studied. The results showed that the prepared hydrogel exhibited pH-sensitivity, good swelling/de-swelling reversibility and excellent salt sensitivity. The self-oscillating behavior of swelling/de-swelling for the prepared hydrogel was caused by pH alteration coupled with the external media. This study may create a new possibility as biomaterial including new self-walking actuators and other related devices.

A series of hydrophobically associating fluorinated amphiphilic polyacrylamide copolymers with remarkably high heat resistance and salt tolerance were synthesized by free radical micellar copolymerization, using acrylamide (AM) and sodium 2-acrylamido-tetradecane sulfonate ($AMC_{14}S$) as amphiphilic monomers, and 2-(perfluorooctyl) ethyl acrylate (PFHEA) as hydrophobic monomer. The structure of the terpolymer was characterized by FTIR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{19}F$ NMR. The solution properties of the terpolymers were investigated in details, and the results showed that the terpolymer solution had strong intermolecular hydrophobic association as the concentration exceeded the critical association concentration 1.5 g/L. The terpolymer solution possessed high surface activity, viscoelasticity, excellent heat resistance, salt tolerance and shearing resistance. The viscosity retention rate of copolymer solution was as high as 59.9% under the condition of fresh wastewater, $85^{\circ}C$ and a 60-days aging test.

Kamicheonmagudeungeum(KCGE), a traditional herbal medicine, has been used as a therapeutic agent for the treatments of acute stage of hypertension. We evaluated the effects of KCGE on hypertension induced by DOCA-salt in rats. The systolic blood pressure and pulse rate significantly lowered by oral administration with KCGE. The levels of plasma hormones including dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine, and serum electrolyte were also reduced in KCGE treated rats. In addition, the production of reactive oxigen species (ROS) were greatly decreased by the treatment with KCGE in cultured bovine endothelial cells and angiotensine converting enzyme (ACE) activites were also inhibited by KCGE in a dose dependent manner. This study indicated that KCGE is a safe and effective treatment for hypertension.
