This study was conducted to investigate the changes in contents of total flavonoid and total polyphenol of three leafy vegetables, spinach(Spinacia oleracea L.), chard(Beta vulgaris L.), whorled mallow(Malva verticillata L.) by various blanching times. Total flavonoid and total polyphenol contents of spinach were 21.01 and 25.58 mg/g, those of chard were 26.02 and 35.14 mg/g, and those of whorled mallow were 16.80 and 19.94 mg/g, respectively. Total flavonoid and total polyphenol contents of chard were the highest among the leafy vegetables. Total flavonoid and total polyphenol contents of leafy vegetables were decreased according to blanching time. Especially, total flavonoid content of chard showed significant loss of $15-30\%$ by blanching time. Total polyphenol content of whorled mallow showed loss of $37-39\%$, but the decrease was not significant.

In this study, Ilex serrata Thunb was extracted with 70% methanol and concentrated under reduced pressure to measure its total polyphenol contents; furthermore, we examined the effect of electron donating ability of the various extracts. The extract was fractionated using different solvents such as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, and methanol to investigate total polyphenol contents and electron donating abilities. The total polyphenol contents were $1,058.59{\pm}85.85{\mu}g\;GAE/mL$ in 70% methanol, $297.29{\pm}29.43{\mu}g\;GAE/mL$ in methylene chloride, $313.28{\pm}9.22{\mu}g\;GAE/mL$ in ethyl acetate, and $837.82{\pm}31.16{\mu}g\;GAE/mL$ in methanol. The total polyphenol contents showed significant differences (p<0.05) between the solvents. The electron donating abilities were $72.93{\pm}0.29%$ for 70% methanol extract, $14.02{\pm}2.01%$ for methylene chloride, $24.05{\pm}1.75%$ for ethyl acetate, and $84.08{\pm}1.95%$ for methanol. The electron donating abilities were significantly different (p<0.05) between the solvents. The two portions of Ilex serrata Thunb extracts obtained from methanol showed significantly relevant results in the total polyphenol contents and electron donating ability, which was higher than the original extract.

The aim of this study is to compare antioxidant activity and total polyphenol contents between before and after fermentation of Ssanghwa-tang according to solvent partition. Ssanghwa-tang was fermented with Lactobacilus fermentum. Ssanghwa-tang and the fermented Ssanghwa-tang were fractioned by solvent partition with ethyl acetate, butanol and water. The Ssanghwa-tangs and their solvent fractions were evaluated for total polyphenol contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity. The antioxidant activity as well as the total polyphenol contents were highest in each ethyl acetate fraction and significantly (p<0.05) increased after fermentation.

The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant effects of O. robusta stem extract (ORE) and to determine the total polyphenol and flavonoid contents. Free radical scavenging properties were evaluated using DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2,2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)), and ·OH (hydroxyl radical) scavenging assays. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were measured using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and aluminum chloride colorimetric methods, respectively. Active compounds of ORE were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results of the study showed that ORE exhibited DPPH, ABTS, and ·OH radical scavenging activities in a dose-dependent manner. Especially, 1,000 ㎍/mL of ORE showed the strongest radical scavenging properties against DPPH, ABTS, and ·OH. ORE contained total polyphenol content of 57.4 mg GAE/g and total flavonoid content of 5.4 mg QE/g, which may contribute to their antioxidant effects. As a result of HPLC, the contents of active compounds in ORE, dihydrokaempferol (0.65 ㎍/mL), and 3-O-methylquercetin (1.10 ㎍/mL) were confirmed. In conclusion, ORE may be useful as a functional material with antioxidant properties.

Apple and pear are popular fruits consumed in Korea and are common fruit in daily diet. In order to compare the antioxidant activity of the apple and pear peels, total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, $ABTS^+$ free radical scavenging activity, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity were measured from hot water, ethanol, and methanol extracts of the two fruit peels. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were highest in 95% methanol extracts of the apple peelsand 70% ethanol extract of the pear peels, respectively. Total polyphenol contents of the pear peels were higher than that of apple peels, and total flavonoid contents of the apple peels were higher than that of pear peels. The apple and pear peels had the highest $ABTS^{+{\cdot}}$ and DPPH free radical scavenging activity in 95% methanol extracts and 70% ethanol extracts, respectively. $ABTS^{+{\cdot}}$ and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of pear peels was higher than that of apple peels, and the DPPH free radical scavenging activity of apple and pear peels were detected in hot water, 95% methanol, and 70% ethanol extracts, respectively. Ascorbic acid, a synthetic antioxidant used as positive control, had significantly higher scavenging activity than the apple and pear peels. In conclusion, the apple and pear peelshave great potential as natural antioxidants. Therefore, above results should be considered to provide the possibility for the development of high functional antioxidants.

끓는 물에 의한 재래적인 방법과 전자렌지를 이용하여 데치는 방법이 시금치의 phytochemical 성분 및 위해성 요인의 변화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. ${\beta}$-Carotene과 chlorophylls 함량은 데치기에 의해 대조군보다 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 특히 재래적인 방법이 전자렌지에 의한 방법보다 높은 함량을 보였는데 chlorophyll a 함량은 유의적으로 증가한 반면 ${\beta}$-carotene과 chlorophyll b 함량은 단지 함량만 증가하였을 뿐 유의적인 차이는 없었다. Ascorbic acid와 총 flavonoid 및 총 polyphenol 함량은 데치기에 의해 모두 감소하였으며, 전자렌지에 의한 방법이 재래적인 방법보다 높은 함량을 보였다. 이때 전자렌지에 의해 데쳤을 경우 ascorbic acid는 대조군과 유의적인 차이 없이 감소하였으나, 총 flavonoid와 총 polyphenol은 대조군보다 유의적으로 낮은 함량을 보여 다소 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 총균과 대장균군 수는 데치기에 의해 모두 유의적으로 감소하였으며 특히 끓는 물에 의한 재래적인 방법이 전자렌지에 의한 데치기보다 약 20-25% 정도 유의적으로 낮았다. Nitrate는 데치기에 의해 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며 특히 전자렌지에 의한 방법이 재래적인 방법보다 낮은 함량을 보였다.

Halophytes are expected to possess abundant secondary metabolites and various biological activities because of habitat in extreme environments. In this study, we collected 14 halophytes (Asparagus oligoclonos, Calystegia soldanella, Carex pumila, Chenopodium glaucum, Elymus mollis, Glehnia littoralis, Limonium tetragonum, Messerschmidia sibirica, Rosa rugosa, Salsola komarovii, Spergularia marina, Suaeda glauca, Suaeda maritima, and Vitex rotundifolia) native to Korea and compared their total polyphenol contents, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The total polyphenol contents of R. rugosa (27.28%) and L. tetragonum (13.17%) were significantly higher than those of the other 12 halophytes and L. tetragonum, R. rugosa, and M. sibirica showed significantly greater antioxidant activities than the other 11 halophytes, as determined by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl). A. oligoclonos, E. mollis, and C. pumila showed significantly greater anti-inflammatory activities than the other 11, as determined by NO (Nitric oxide) and $PGE_2$ (Prostaglandin $E_2$) levels. In contrast, these three extracts had normal and low total polyphenol contents among the 14 halophytes. Consequently, the total polyphenol content in the 14 studied halophytes appeared to be related to antioxidant, but not anti-inflammatory activity levels.

We evaluated the effects of heat treatment on various properties of onion extracts (Allium cepa). Onion was heated at various temperatures ($110-150^{\circ}C$) for various times (1-5 hr), and the total polyphenol, flavonoid, and free sugar contents, and antioxidant activity were investigated. With increased heating temperatures and exposure times, the total contents of polyphenols and flavonoids, as well as antioxidant activity increased. The highest total polyphenol content (189.80 mg/100g) occurred after heating for 2 hr at $140^{\circ}C$. The highest total flavonoid content (252.51 mg/100g) occurred after heating for 3 hr at $150^{\circ}C$. The antioxidant activity assessed using the DPPH method was highest, at 2.1 mg/mL ($IC_{50}$ value), after heating for 2 hr at $150^{\circ}C$. Correlations between antioxidant activity and the total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and fructose contents were highly significant (all p<0.01). The optimal heating time and temperature were 2 hr and $130^{\circ}C$.
