  • Total phenolic content, total anthocyanin content and antioxidant activity were analyzed from rice samples collected in Korea, Japan and China. The results showed that the total phenolic content and free-radical scavenging activity differed significantly in these rice lines. The correlation between content and activity was subsequently investigated. The results showed that in black rice, anthocyanin was the major phenolic component and that both phenolic content and anthocyanin content were closely correlated with free-radical scavenging activity. Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) data showed that cyanidin-3-O-glucoside and peonidin-3-O-glucoside composed about 90% of the total anthocyanin content in black rice and in red rice. In the red rice extract, the total phenolic content produced a high correlation coefficient with antioxidant activity but correlated very poorly with the total anthocyanin content. The $OD_{458}$ and the $OD_{500}$ values which represent the proanthocyanidin content of the rice extract, produced high correlation coefficients with antioxidant activity and total phenolic content. These results suggest that the $OD_{458}$ and the $OD_{500}$ values can be used to evaluate the quality of red rice. In addition, based on the data obtained, a competitive accumulation model of anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin in black and red rice was proposed.

  • To establish an in vitro mass production system of grape anthocyanin pigments through callus and cell suspension culture, the effects of nitrogen source and sucrose on fresh weight and anthocyanin production in cell suspension culture of 'Sheridan' grape level were studied. When the medium was devoid of $NO_3^-$, cell fresh weight was either remained stable (1% sucrose) or slightly decreased with culture time (2,3, and 4% sucrose). When $NH_4^-$ was lacking, 3% sucrose was most favorable for cell growth. When $NH_4^-$ was supplied as N source, the anthocyanin content of 2% sucrose containing medium was maintained 2 times higher than other levels till day 8 in culture, then that of 3 and 4% sucrose which peaked at day 12 thereafter. The anthocyanin content was low than $NO_3^-$-free media. Total anthocyanin content in $NH_4^-$-free medium was just about a half of that of $NH_4^+$ medium. Anthocyanin production of 2% sucrose in $NH_4^+$ medium was maintained about 3-fold till day 8, then decreased thereafter. In $NH_4^+$ medium, pH decreased gradually with final pH of 3.5 to 4.0, while pH in $NH_4^+$-free medium increased with final pH of 6.5 to 7.5.

  • The fermentative quality and quantitative change in anthocyanin of anthocyanin-rich corn (Zea mays L.) during storage and in vitro ruminal fermentation were studied. The anthocyanin-rich corn silages in bag silo, drum silo and round bale had good fermentative qualities, such as low pH (5% DM) and butyric acid-free, and its quality was maintained for more than 370 d. The amount of anthocyanin in the anthocyanin-rich corn decreased after ensiling by about 45% (from 3.34 to 1.88 mg/g DM), but stayed constant after day 60. The in vitro incubation of the anthocyanin-rich corn with ruminal fluid revealed little degradation of anthocyanin. These results indicate that the anthocyanin had no negative effect on silage fermentation, and the anthocyanin-rich corn silage is utilizable for practical use as a feedstuff. Our results also demonstrate alteration of the anthocyanin content during storage, and show that anthocyanin-rich corn is a suitable antioxidant source for ruminants because of the high stability of the anthocyanin in ruminal fluid.

  • Red mustard leaf (RML) kimchi was prepared with native Brassica juncea czerniak et coss as a major raw material and antioxidative characteristics of crude anthocyanin (CA)/refined anthocyanin (RA) isolated from RML kimchi were studied. Among crude pigment fractions, CA fraction showed a higher inhibition rate of peroxide formation in linoleic acid autoxidation system. These effects seemed to be increased with the increase of CA concentration. CA also was considered to have a role of electron donor by the experiments using DPPH ($\alpha$, $\alpha$'-diphenyl-$\beta$-picrylhydrazyl) reaction. Furthermore, various RA fractions had a higher antioxidative activity and especially RA-fraction 3 demonstrated the highest score of the antioxidative characteristics in terms of the prevention of lipid peroxidation and scavenging of free radicals.

  • To establish in vitro mass production system of grape anthocyanin pigments through callus and cell suspension culture, the effects of nitrogen amount and the ratio of $NO_3^-$/$NH_4^+$ in the medium on cell growth and anthocyanin production were investigated. Total nitrogen amount and the ratio of $NO_3^-$/$NH_4^+$ in the medium strongly affected anthocyanin production and cell growth. When $NH_4^+$ was fixed, the cell growth was promoted by 50 mM total nitrogen (20 mM $NO_3^-$ : 30 mM $NH_4^+$ ) than other nitrogen combinations, and was strongly inhibited when $NO_3^-$ was lacking (0 mM $NO_3^-$ : 60 mM $NH_4^+$ ) while anthocyanin production was increased. When $NO_3^-$ was fixed, the cell growth was promoted by 70 mM total nitrogen (40 mM $NO_3^-$ : 30 mM $NH_4^+$) than other nitrogen combinations, and was strongly inhibited when $NO_3^-$ was lacking (0 mM $NO_3^-$ : 60 mM $NH_4^+$ ) while anthocyanin production was increased. Cell growth was gradually increased by all nitrogen combinations, but anthocyanin production reached its peak on day 4 in culture. Anthocyanin content increased with decreasing cell density. Sucrose was rapidly hydrolyzed to fructose and glucose within 4 days. Glucose and fructose concentrations in the medium increased and peaked at the 4th day. The anthocyanin content of $NH_4^+$-free 2% sucrose media was 2 times (200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g) higher than that of 1% sucrose. When $NO_3^-$ was lacking, the highest anthocyanin production was observed at 4% sucrose after 12 days of culture, and increased along with the sucrose concentration.

  • Intact black raspberry fruits, which were crushed by hand or ground using a blender, were immersed in 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% ethanol (125 g fruits per 900 mL ethanol) and exuded for 30, 60, and 90 days at room temperature. Monomeric anthocyanin contents (MAC) and polyphenol contents (PHC) of the exudates were determined measuring absorbance using a spectrophotometer. DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activities (50%: $SC_{50}$) were determined for the antioxidant activities of the exudates. Twenty % ethanol exudates from black raspberry had significantly lower MAC and PHC regardless of the fruit types. $SC_{50}$ were higher in 20% ethanol exudates, suggesting 20% ethanol exudates from black raspberry had lower antioxidant activities. MAC and PHC of the black raspberry exudates decreased with time. This study suggests that MAC and PHC in the black raspberry could be exuded more efficiently using 40% or higher concentration of ethanol and that crushing and grinding little affect exuding MAC and PHC. The exudates with higher MAC and PHC showed higher antioxidant activities.

  • This study was performed to provide basic data of Saekso 2 corn kernels. Proximate composition, free sugars, fatty acids and anthocyanin content of Saekso 2 corn kernels were analyzed. Proximate composition of dried Saekso 2 corn kernels were represented 8.84% moisture, 1.44% crude ash, 5.46% crude lipid, 10.31% crude protein. Free sugars composition by HPLC/ELSD showed that sucrose (1.00%), glucose (0.63%), maltose (0.52%), fructose (0.44%) were present. The composition of fatty acids in Saekso 2 corn kernels was analyzed by GC/FID. 11 species of fatty acids were analyzed in Saekso 2 corn kernels. The ratio of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids 16.09 : 83.91. Content of linoleic acid was the highest in fatty acids. The total anthocyanin content in Saekso 2 corn kernels was 0.24% by UV/Vis. Anthocyanin components separated and quantified using HPLC/MS/MS. Cyanidin 3-O-glucoside chloride (C-3-G), pelargonidin 3-O-glucoside chloride (Pg-3-G) and peonidin 3-O-glucoside chloride (Pn-3-G) of anthocyanin were analyzed in Saekso 2 corn kernels.

  • This study investigated the effects of drying methods and drying time on the changes in anthocyanin content in colored barley. Colored barley cultivar Boanchalbori was harvested at a time when the anthocyanin content was the most and dried in afield. The harvested barley was then treated by two methods, sun drying and shade drying, for 4, 8, 24, and 32 h. The moisture content of the sun-dried barley decreased slightly faster than shade-dried samples, but the difference was not statistically significant. Chemical analysis indicated that the samples dried under shaded conditions had slightly higher crude fiber and lower nitrogen free extract, but the difference was not statistically significant. There was no difference in the total digestible nutrients between the two methods. In the case of sun-dried barley, the anthocyanin content decreased compared to the control and shade-dried samples after drying for 4 h (p < 0.05), was maintained at a constant level at 24 h, and then decreased at 32 h. In case of shade-dried barley, the anthocyanin content decreased gradually with the drying time, and a significant decrease was found at 24 h of drying (p<0.05) as compared to the control. The shade-dried method was more successful in reducing anthocyanin loss than the sun-dried method (p<0.05). There was a slight decrease in 1,1-Diphenyl-2-Picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging with drying time in the shade-dried method, and a significant decrease after 4 h with the sun-dried method. These results showed that covering with a two-layer awning was advantageous to dry colored barley in the field conditions.

  • Colored rices are a hulled grains having red or purple pigments in bran. Especially black rice (Heugjinjubyeo) is considered to be a healthy food in Asia. Black rice is of great interesting because of the possible biological activity with their anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are water-soluble plant pigments and representatives of flavonoids. The anthocyanins in black rice include cyanidin 3-O-glucoside, peonidin 3-O-glucoside, malvidin 3-O-glucoside, pelagonidin 3-O-glucoside and delphinidin 3-O-glucoside. In this study, anthocyanins in a black rice were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively with HPLC and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The anthocyanins contained approximately 95% of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside and 5% of peonidin-3-O-glucoside. Antioxidant activities of the anthocyanin extract were investigated by using various in vitro methods. The 100g/ml concentration of the anthocyanin extracted exhibited 88.83% inhibition on the peroxidation of linoleic acid, 55.20% DPPH free radical scavenging activity, 54.96% superoxide anion radical scavenging activity, and 72.67% hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity. And it also showed high ferrous ion reducing capability. These results suggest that the anthocyanin extracted from black rice may be utilized as a possible antioxdiant agent against ROS.

  • We have investigated the effects of the solvent fractions from the aleurone layer of Oryza sativa cv. Heugjinmi on plasma glucose and lipid levels in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 6 groups, normal, diabetic control, and four experimental groups. Diabetes mellitus was induced by injection of streptozotocin(45 mg/kg body weight) into tail vein, and fraction of Oryza sativa cv. Heugjinmi was administered orally in experimental rats for 14 days. The body weight, glucose, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid level, and aminotransferase activities were analyzed. It was identified that acetone and anthocyanin fractions significantly reduced the levels of glucose, triglyceride, and free fatty acid in plasma of diabetic rats. And HDL-cholesterol levels of acetone and anthocyanin groups were higher than those of diabetic control group. From these data, it can be postulated that acetone and anthocyanin fractions might possess rather potent hypoglycemic and hypotriglyceridemic properties in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
