This study was conducted to develop fresh-cut and processed pears. After treatment of citric acid (1%) or N-acetylcysteine (0.2 M), and co-treatment of citric acid (1%) and N-acetylcysteine (0.2 M) into the pears c.v. 'Wonhwang', the quality changes of pears during cold storage ($1^{\circ}C$) for 10 days were investigated respectively. Pear quality and the taste of pears increased much more in those treated with anti-browning agents than those in the control group at 10 days after anti-browning treatment and cold storage. Changes in Hunter b values of pears treated with 0.2 M N-acetylcysteine were insignificant. Those with Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity and ethylene production were had the most decreased effects and those with the phenolics compound contents were the most lowered. Firmness of fruits increased in treatment of 0.2 M N-acetylcysteine + 1% citric acid solution. The amount of respiration decreased in the application of 1% citric acid solution. Consequently, fruit freshness can be maintained more effectively by the treatment of the anti-browning agent compared to non-treatment, even if the effectiveness were different among different kinds of anti-browning agents.

The aims of this study were to examine the efficacy of phytochemicals of Rumex crispus as anti-oxidant and anti-browning agent. The bioactive properties of Rumex crispus as natural colorants were studied by total phenolic contents, DPPH radical scavenging, ABTS radical scavenging,lipid peroxidation, cell viability, singlet oxygen quenching and photoprotection effect. Among all of the results ($IC_{50}$: the concentration of various extracts required to exert 50% reducing effect), the higher activity of the extract was found in the ethyl acetate and butanol extracts. Anti-browning activity was evaluated by monitoring the change $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ values and total color differences(${\Delta}E$). It was found that ethyl acetate and butanol extracts effectively inhibited browning in apple juice at a concentration below 0.3 mg/ml. Rumex crispus extracts used natural colorants could be of good resources as anti-oxidant and anti-browning agents. The results suggest that our study may contribute to the development of natural and functional materials with potential application to reduce oxidative damage.

된장모델로서 0.2 mM $FeCl_2$를 함유한 0.1 M glucose-0.1 M glutamic acid 모델액에 50 mM citric acid와 이의 synergist로 5종의 금속결합능이 있는 식품첨가물을 첨가하여 시료를 조제한 후 $30^{\circ}C$와 $40^{\circ}C$에서 4주간 저장하면서 식품첨가물들이 된장모델의 갈변억제에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. $30^{\circ}C$에서 저장시 시료의 갈변억제율은 일정하게 유지 되다가 3주후 급감하였고, $40^{\circ}C$에서 저장한 경우는 저장기간이 증가됨에 따라 감소하였다. $30^{\circ}C$와 $40^{\circ}C$에서 4주 저장후 가장 높은 갈변억제율을 나타낸 첨가구는 tannic acid 0.015%와 pyrophosphate 0.15%이었으며, $30^{\circ}C$에서 저장시 이들 첨가구의 갈변억제율은 synergist 무첨가구보다 32%가 높았다. 또한 $30^{\circ}C$에서 4주 저장 후 gallic acid, tannic acid, pyrophosphate는 형광물질과 3-deoxyglucosone과 같은 Maillard 반응중간생성물의 생성을 크게 억제하였는데, 이는 이들 synergist들의 높은 철 이온 결합능에 의한 것으로 생각되었다. 중간생성물의 생성 억제효과는 0.15% 첨가 시가 0.015% 첨가시보다 높았다. 한편 gallic acid는 갈변도를 증가시키고, tannic acid는 철 이온과 유색의 착체를 형성하므로, 갈변억제제로 citric acid를 된장에 사용할 경우 이의 synergist로는 pyrophosphate가 가장 적당한 것으로 생각되었다.

This study was conducted to increase the keeping quality of the minimally processed pear slices during the cold storage. Korean pears, 'Shin-go (Niitaka)', 'Chu-hwang' and 'Won-hwang’ were immersed in 1% ascorbic acid, 0.1% calcium propionate, 1% citric acid, 0.2% N-acetyl cysteine and 0.5 M 4-hexylresorcinol solution for 3 three minutes and then stored at $1{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. We have also examined into the firmness and the color difference of pears slices as affected by the application of the anti-browning agents. The firmness of pears slices which that were immersed in 0.1% calcium propionate and 0.2% N-acetyl cysteine solution were not significant at did not differ significantly after 10 days after of cold storage. However, the ${\Delta}E^*$ values of 'Shin-go' slices which that were treated with 0.1% calcium propionate and 0.2% N-acetyl cysteine solution and stored for 10 days decreased by 3.18 and 3.83, when compared with that in of the control, which decreased by 6.36. The ${\Delta}E^*$ values of 'Chu-hwang' slices which that were treated with 0.2% N-acetyl cysteine and 0.1% calcium propionate solution had the slight difference by differed by only 2.09 and 2.14, when compared with that in of the control, which differed by 3.04. The ${\Delta}E^*$ values of 'Won-hwang' slices which that were treated with 1% citric acid and 0.5 M 4-hexylresorcinol were 4.49 and 5.83, respectively, while that in of the control decreased by 8.95. It was assumed that the anti-browning agent treatment had the different activities among varieties of the pear varieties slices, however, application of 0.2% N-acetyl cysteine and 0.1% calcium propionate application had greater the higher antibrowning activity.

한란(Cymbidium kanran)의 급속증식을 위한 식물생장 조절물질과 항산화제의 처리결과, 2.5 g/1 gelrite가 생장과 경제적인 면에서 우수하였는데, 9 g/1 시약한천보다 적은 약 28% 정도의 양과 절반 정도의 가격으로 우수한 결과를 나타났다. 식용한천은 시약한천에 비해 절반 정도의 가격으로 거의 비슷한 생육을 보였다. BA와 NAA의 농도가 높을수록 배지의 갈변도가 심하였으며, 식물생장조절물질의 작용을 억제하였다. polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, M.W. 40,000)이 ascorbic acid, aspartic acid, rutin 보다 우수 항산화제인 것으로 나타났다. 식물생장조절물질 처리에서는 0.1-1.0 mg/1 BA와 0.1 mg기 NAA, 1 g/1 PVP 처리구가 가장 좋은 생육을 보였다. 따라서 한란의 경우 급속한 개체 증식을 위해서는 MS 기본배지에 2.5 g기 gelrite를 불활성 지지물로 사용하고, 0.1-1.0 mg/1 BA 수준에 0.1 mg/1 NAA를 처리하고, 1 g/1 PVP 첨가를 통해 배지의 산화를 억제하여 배양기간을 연장하고, 식물생장조절물질의 역할이 정상적으로 작용하도록 하여 적은 양의 식물생장조절물질의 사용으로 강건한 묘를 확보할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The effect of alginate coating in combination with an anti-browning agent on increasing the post-cutting shelf life and improving the quality of minimally processed apple cubes was studied during storage at room temperature for 5 days. A simple coating technique involving the chemical cross-linkage of alginate by calcium was used. Statistical-based experimental designs were applied to improve the quality of the alginate-coated apple cubes (ACAC). Plackett-Burman design was first used to determine the main factors influencing the preservation of the original weight, color, and texture of ACAC. Among these variables, alginate concentration ($X_1$), dipping time ($X_2$), and dipping temperature ($X_3$) significantly influenced the ACAC weight and color (confidence levels above 90%). Subsequently, the effects of the 3 main factors were further investigated by a central composite design. The polynomial models developed by response surface methodology were adequate to describe the relationships between the studied factors and the responses. Overall optimization conducted by superimposing the curves of the responses enabled the determination of an optimal range of the independent variables in which the five responses were simultaneously optimized. The point chosen as representative of this optimal area corresponded to $X_1=2.98%$, $X_2=0.85\;min$, and $X_3=55^{\circ}C$ and under these conditions the model predicted weight loss=0.522%, relative hardness=1.517, ${\Delta}E=1.423$, browning inhibition=93.403%, and ${\Delta}L=0.158$.

비만은 에너지의 섭취와 소비의 불균형으로 인해 지방조직이 과도하게 분화하여 과잉 축적이 되면서 발생하게 되는 대사질환 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서 저자들은 3T3-L1 지방세포를 이용해 천연 유래 6 종 혼합물인 SliMax의 항비만 효과를 확인하였다. 그 결과 SliMax는 지방분화 단계에서 후기 분화를 조절하는 것으로 알려진 PPARγ와 C/EBPα의 발현 억제를 통해 지방분화를 억제하는 결과를 보였다. 또한 지방세포 분화 유도 후 지방세포 분해 과정에서 SliMax는 지방분해 관련 단백질인 ATGL과 HSL 발현 증가를 통해 큰 사이즈의 단방성 지방구를 작은 사이즈의 수많은 다방성 지방구로 분해하였다. 마지막으로 갈색지방으로 유도하는 효능을 확인하기 위해 UCP-1의 발현과 미토콘드리아 양을 면역형광염색법으로 확인한 결과 SliMax가 지방세포의 UCP-1의 발현과 미토콘드리아 양을 증가시켰다. 결과를 종합해볼 때, 천연 유래 혼합물인 SliMax는 지방 분화억제와 지방분해 촉진을 통해 지방구의 형성을 억제하고, 열 생산과 에너지 소비와 관련된 갈색지방화 촉진 기능을 가져 항비만 소재로의 가능성을 가진다.

To study the effect of natural anti-microbial chemicals on the growth and quality of chili peppers, chitosan ($100mg/L^{-1}$), stevia ($250mg/L^{-1}$), and the mixture of both chemicals at the same concentration were sprayed after planting at 1-week interval throughout the experimental period. Plant height was measured twice after the $3^{rd}$ and $4^{th}$ applications. Plant height was numerically reduced in all chemical treatments compared to that of untreated control; however, there was no statistical difference between treatments. The fruit quality was examined at commercial maturity, and only minor differences were found in fruit color, length, and dry matter content between the treatments. Although a statistical difference was not present for soluble sugars levels, total phenolics, and capsaicin contents, yield in all chemical treatments significantly increased compared to untreated control. The effect on yield increase was greater at the late harvest season regardless of treatments. Total yield of 4 harvests was higher for the chitosan treatment than other treatments. During the experiment, the entire experimental field was waterlogged for 1 day due to sudden heavy rainfall, which resulted in the occurrence of bacterial browning disease in all treatments. The rate of disease occurrence and the degree of severity, however, were much lower in the chitosan treatment. In conclusion, the potential of chitosan as an alternative antimicrobial agent was confirmed in chili peppers in this study. Further research is required on stevia as an alternative chemical for disease control in chili peppers.
