Tocopherols are important lipid-phase antioxidants that are subject to heat degradation. Therefore, kinetic analyses for oxidative degradation of tocopherols as a function of temperatures and times were performed. Alpha-, gamma- and delta-tocopherols dissolved in glycerol were heated at 100${\sim}$250$^{\circ}C$ for 5～60 min. Oxidized tocopherols were analyzed by HPLC using a reversed phase ${\mu}$-Bondapak C$_{18}$-column with two kinds of elution solvent systems in a gradient mode. The degradation kinetics for tocopherols followed a first-order kinetic model. The rate of tocopherol degradation was dependent on heating temperatures. The degradation rate constants for ${\gamma}$- and ${\delta}$-tocopherols were higher than those for ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. The experimental activation energies of ${\alpha}$-, ${\gamma}$- and ${\delta}$- tocopherols were 2.51, 6.05 and 5.34 kcal/mole, respectively. The experimental activation energies for the oxidative degradation of ${\gamma}$- and ${\delta}$-tocopherols were higher than that of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol.

The thermal degradation pattern of $\alpha$-, ${\gamma}$-and $\delta$-tocopherols in glycerol was investigated during heating at 100~25$0^{\circ}C$ for 5-60 min in the absence of oxyge. The tocopherols and thermally decomposed products were separated by HPLC with a reversed phase $\mu$-Bondapak C18-column. The degradation pattern of $\alpha$-tocopherol during the heating in the absence of oxygen was different from those of ${\gamma}$-and $\delta$-tocopherols. But the degradation patterns of ${\gamma}$-and $\delta$-tocopherols were similar to each other. The residual content of $\alpha$-tocopherol during the heating in the absence of oxygen decreased to the range 12~65% and those of ${\gamma}$-and $\delta$-tocopherols decreased to the range 4~96%. The thermal degradation of tocopherols in the absence of oxygen was less than that in the presence of oxygen.

The kinetic analyses for thermal products of alpha-, gamma- and delta-tocopherols during heating as functions of temperature and time were studied. Alpha-, gamma- and delta-tocopherols dissolved in glycerol were heated at $100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$ for $5{\sim}60$ min. The thermal products were separated by hexane extraction and analyzed by HPLC using a reversed phase ${\mu}-Bondapak$ $C_{18}-column$ with two kinds of elution solvents in a gradient mode. The formation kinetics of thermal products of tocopherols followed a first-order kinetic model. The formation rate of thermal products of tocopherols was dependent on heating temperatures and heating times. The activation energy and enthalpy for the thermal products of ${\gamma}-and$ ${\delta}-tocopherols$ were higher than those for ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ as in the case of the oxidative degradation kinetics of tocopherol. The magnitude order of the activation energy was ${\gamma}->{\delta}->{\alpha}-tocopherol$.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that exists in eight different forms, which are $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, and $\delta$ tocopherol, and $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, and $\delta$ tocotrienol. Tocopherols and tocotrienols are important antioxidant in foods, feeds and their raw materials, where they scavenge lipid radicals. Each form has its own biological activity, the measure of potency or functional use in the body. Antioxidants such as vitamin E act to protect cells against the effects of free radicals, which are potentially damaging by-products of the body's metabolism. Free radicals can cause cell dam-age that may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease and cancer, The content of tocopherols and tocotrienols vary depending on the environmental condition such as growing regions, temperature, crops and varieties. This report deals with chemical and physical properties and extends to their nutritional and health effect on the tocopherols and tocotrienols in cereal grains.

In this study, the attempts were made to Investigate the effect of squalene (200 ppm) on the autooxidation of soybean oil The effect of mixed tocopherols (200 ppm) was also studied In the same way and the results of the study were compared with those of squalene. A put of a commercial soybean oil was stored at 45.0$\pm$0.5t for their autooxidation. The extent of the autooxidation was estimated from the changes of the peroxide value and % conjugated dienoic acid content of the ell substrates The results of the autooxidation, squalene In the soybean oil substrate showed antioxidant activity but the activity was weaker than that of mixed-tocopherols nth the same concentration. The induction periods of the control and substrates with the same concentration. The Induction periods of the control and substrates with squalene and mixed-tocopherols were 448.5 504.9 and 668.9 hours, respectively. Time required to Tech a POV of 30meq/kg oil.

Lipid oxidation and contents of tocopherols and phospholipids (PL) in soy-added fried products during storage in the dark were studied. Flour dough containing soy flour at 0, 10, 20, and 30% on a weight basis was fried in corn oil at $180^{\circ}C$ for 2.5 min. The fried products were stored at $60^{\circ}C$ for 11 days in the dark. Lipid oxidation of the fried products was evaluated by conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) and p-anisidine values (PAV). Tocopherols and PL were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). CDA contents and PAV of the fried products were increased during storage, and addition of soy flour improved lipid oxidative stability of the fried products, which was partly related to increased amount of tocopherols and PL in the soy-added fried products. Tocopherols and PL were degraded during the dark storage of the fried products. Soy flour addition to the dough did not affect the rate of tocopherols degradation during storage of the fried products; however, PL degradation was higher in the soy-added fried products. Residual amounts of $\alpha$-tocopherol and phosphatidylinositol showed high correlations with the lipid oxidation of the fried products during storage in the dark.

항산화활성이 높은 찰옥수수를 육종하고, 옥수수의 항산화활성에 가장 큰 효과를 나타내는 물질을 추적하고자, 찰옥수수 자식계통과 재래종의 항산화활성을 측정하고 페놀성화합물, tocopherols, carotenoids의 함량을 측정하였다. 전자공여능에 의한 항산화활성은 $15.5{\sim}65.0%$였고, 페놀성화합물은 $102.3{\sim}323.5\;{\mu}g/mL$였으며, tocopherols는 $15.6{\sim}144.2\;{\mu}g/mL$였고, A450의 값은 $0.047{\sim}0.206$였다. 4종의 검정찰옥수수는 항산화활성이 48.7%, 페놀성화합물은 $267.0\;{\mu}g/mL$, tocopherols은 $87.0\;{\mu}g/mL$로 상당히 높았다. 항산화활성과 페놀성화합물, tocopherols의 함량과는 고도의 상관관계가 있었으나 carotenoids와는 유의성이 없었다.

천연 항산화제로 사용되는 토코페롤은 가열 온도가 높을수록, 가열 시간이 길수록 토코페롤의 분해율이 증가하였으며, 무산소 가열의 경우, 토코페롤은 산소가 있을 때 보다 덜 분해되었다. 알파-, 감마-. 델타- 토코페롤의 무산소 가열 조건을 만들기 위하여 $100{\sim}250^{\circ}C$에서 5${\sim}$60분 가열하는 동안 회화로 속으로 질소를 계속 흘려보내는 실험 방법을 사용하였다. 헥산으로 추출한 토코페롤은 두 종류의 용출 용매와 역상 ${\mu}$-Bondapak C$_{18}$-컬럼을 사용한 HPLC로 분리하였고 토코페롤의 분해 패턴과 잔존량을 조사하였다. 토코페롤의 열분해 키네틱스는 온도와 시간의 함수로 분석되었고 열분해 패턴은 1차 반응으로 나타났다. 무산소 가열시 알파-, 감마-, 델타-토코페롤의 열분해 활성화 에너지는 각각 3.47, 5.85 그리고 6.76 kcal/mole 이었다.

Six brands of encapsulated fishoil products and five fishes were analyzed for their contents of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA 20 :5 n-3) , docosahexaenoic acid(DHA 22: 6 n-3) and tocopherols. In both of the fish oil products and the fishes, major fatty acids were palmitic acid, oleic acid, eicosapentaeoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid and fatty acid compositions were also similar pattern each other. EPA showed variable amounts from 19.2 to 50.3% in the oil products whereas DHA were 13.2% to 28.3% inthe fishes. Tocopherols were studied in relation to the oxidative stability of fish products no relation was observed. However the amount of tocopherols in fish oil proudcts were higher than that of fishes. Contents of EPA, DHA and tocopherols in encapsulated fishoil products oil products were variable comparing with manufactures' claimed contents.

Six sesame oils prepared from Korean and Chinese sesame were oxidized at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 16 weeks in a dark place. Effects of oxidative stability on tocopherols of those sesame oils were studied in related to chemical changes in the oils. All oil samples showed that the rate of tocopherol reduction was increased by the storage time. The changes of peroxide value, free fatty acid, carbonyl content were not caused in direct relation to the tocopherols oxidation. The amount of total tocopherol in the Korean sesame oil ranged from 48.7-50.3mg/100g and Chinese seseame oil ranged from 42.4-44.7 mg/100g According to the three individual tocopherols remaining content after 16weeks, ${\gamma}$-,${\alpha}$-,${\beta}$- tocopherol showed 70%, 30%, 20% of initial concentrations in the oils respectively. There was no significant difference between Korean and Chinese sesame oil except the higher total amount of the tocopherol in Korean sesame oil than that of Chinese.
