The treatment of X-ray was manipulated with the large focus of X-ray which was produced the capacity of 90 kilovoltage and 30 milliamphere in the distance of 50 centimeter. The germination of each gruop irradiated with X-ray for 5, 6, and 7 seconds was more delayed in the growth of carrot seed than those of the control group. However the germination of each group irradiated with X-ray for 2, 3, and 4 seconds was rather accelerated than those of the control group. The irradiation of ultraviolet light was carried out in the distance of 20 centimeter by Toshiba germidicial lamp which appeared the wavelength of 2537A$^{\circ}$. The germination of each group irradiated with ultraviolet light for 9, 15, 20, and 40 minutes was more delayed than those of the control group, but the germination of carrot seed was accelerated by adequate dosage of ultraviolet light. Consuquently it was suggested for the author that the inhibited substance contained in carrot seed would be certain fatty substance, becasue the germination of carrot seed was more accelerated by the treatment of acetone than those of X-ray and ultraviolet light.

This study was performed to compare the vitamin A, E, ${\beta}-carotene$, polyphenol content, and DPPH radical scavenging activity of carrot, apple, and blueberry juices as affected by extraction methods using slow juicer (HJ), no vacuum blending (NVJ) and vacuum blending (VJ). Juice yields of carrot, apple, and blueberry were 100% in NVJ and VJ groups. Vitamin A content of all juices was the highest in VJ group. Vitamin E content in carrot and apple juices increased most in the HJ group, followed by the NVJ and VJ group; Vitamin E content in blueberry juice was higher in the NVJ group than VJ or HJ group. ${\beta}-carotene$ and polyphenol content in all juices were highest in the VJ group. In addition, the differences between vacuum blending and non-vacuum blending were only shown on apple and blueberry juices. Polyphenol content in carrot and blueberry juices increased most in the HJ group, followed by the NVJ, and VJ groups, and in apple juice, polyphenol content was higher in the VJ group than the HJ or NVJ group. DPPH radical scavenging activity in the VJ group was significantly higher than the NVJ group. The results of this study showed the vacuum blending method had outstanding antioxidative nutrients compared to other juicing methods.

Investigations were conducted on the changes in carotenoids content, and quantification of cis-trans-${\beta}$-carotene Isomers in pureed and cooked carrot and spinach during storage. The isomerization and degradation of carotenoids were monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography on a C$\_$30/ reversed-phase column with diode-array detection. The results showed that lutein, ail-trans-${\beta}$-carotene, ${\alpha}$-carotene, 9-cis-${\beta}$-carotene and 13-cis-${\beta}$-carotene were present in carrot and spinach. Zeaxanthin and cryptoxanthin were present in raw spinach. The contents of lutein, zeaxanthin, cryptoxanthin, ${\alpha}$-carotene and all-trans-${\beta}$-carotene in pureed and cooked carrot and spinach decreased with increasing storage period. The 9-cis and 13-cis carotenoid isomers were the major types formed in cooked carrot during storage. Cooking was not found to alter the carotenoid profile of the sample, but increased the total amount of carotenoids compared with pured ones. This increase could be explained that cooking itself increased the extraction efficiency and inactivated the enzymes degradating carotenoids.

This study was carried out to obtain basic information for possibility of oral vaccine in carrot using Agrobacteruim -mediated transformation system. The epitope region of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) spike gene which is classified as a member of the Coronaviridae and causes an acute enteritis in pigs was successfully expressed in carrot (Daucus carota) using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system. Hypocotyl segments of in vitro germinated plantlets were infected with Agrobacteriun tumefaciens LBA 4404 harboring PEDV spike gene. Embryogenic callus (EC) was induced on MS selection medium with 1 mg/L 2,4-D, 50 mg/L kanamycin and 300 mg/L cefotaxime after 45 days of culture. Subcultured ECs on MS selection medium without 2,4-D were converted to somatic embryos (SE) of various stage; globular, heart and torpedo stage. Putative transgenic embryos were selected on MS medium with 50 mg/L kanamycin and 300 mg/L cefotaxime. Regenerated plantlets from transformed SE were induced on MS medium containing 50 mg/L kanamycin after 30 days of culture. Genomic PCR confirmed the integration of PEDV spike gene into nuclear genome of carrot and northern blot analysis demonstrated the expression of PEDV spike gene in transgenic carrot.

In this study, the extracts of carrot (Daucus carota var. sativa) leaf fermented with Weizmannia coagulans KK7 strain were investigated for the anti-inflammatory activities and component changes. The KK7 strain was isolated from kimchi, a Korean fermented vegetable. The high-performance liquid chromatography was performed to analyze the changes in the components of the carrot leaf extracts before and after fermentation. It was confirmed that the content of luteolin, a kind of flavonoid, was significantly increased after fermentation. The anti-inflammatory activities of the carrot leaf extracts and the fermented carrot leaf extracts were evaluated by the inhibition of NO (nitric oxide) production in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. The NO scavenging ability of the fermented carrot leaf extracts was higher than the other extracts. The protein expression of iNOS, an enzyme responsible for the NO production was significantly reduced in a concentration-dependent manner by treatment with the fermented carrot leaf extracts. In conclusion, we found that the anti-inflammatory effect of carrot leaf was increased by microbial fermentation, suggesting that carrot leaf generally discarded could be used as new food and cosmetic materials through fermentation.

Optimal mixing renditions of sub-ingredients(citron, apple, carrot and mushroom) for preparation of kimchi tablet were investigated by response surface methodology. Hardness of kimchi tablet was low with the addition of 0.75 g carrot powder but increased as increasing of mushroom amount. Hue angle of kimchi tablet was 83 ∼86 degree when the amount of citron, apple, carrot and mushroom was lower than 0.5 g. Solubility in artificial bile acid of kimchi tablet was not affected by the addition of carrot and was high in the group with 1.0 g mushroom added and the group with 0.75 g apple added. Flavor of kimchi tablet was better as increasing of the amounts of apple and carrot added. The results of investigating the effects of independent factors on each response variable showed that only carrot affected on the hue angle of tablet and other sub-ingredients not affecting on response variable. Therefore, carrot, apple and mushroom could be added in a wide range of concentration around 0.75 g.

This study was performed to produce the processing factors of pesticides in dried carrot. It is essential data for establishing the maximum residue limits (MRLs) of pesticides in dried carrot. The target pesticides were azinphos-methyl, chlorpyrifos, captan, endosulfan and triclorfon. These pesticides are included Korea's MRL list in carrot and USA's MRL list in dried foods. To infiltrate these pesticides up to each MRL level in carrot, the dipping test was performed in laboratory. Also, the supervised residue trial of the pesticide for carrot was conducted in the green house to recognize the field trial's tendency. In the dipping test in laboratory (including drying examination), the processing factors of the carrot at various concentrations and temperatures could be evaluated. In field test, the processing factors were 5.9 for azinphos-methyl, 1.7 for captan, 7.6 for chlorpyrifos, 6 for endosulfan, 0 for trichlorfon, respectively. The dipping test in laboratory on various kinds of conditions showed more precise processing factors than field trial. The processing factors obtained from the dipping test of carrot were 0~4.7 at the various concentration of the pesticides, and 0~6.7 at various drying temperature. The lower level processing factors were 0~0.6 for trichlorfon and the higher level were 3.0~5.8 for chlorpyrifos. The highest processing factor was 9.1 for captan.

The causal fungus of pear scab, Venturia nashicola, grows slowly and rarely produces conidia on artificial media in the laboratory, but it produced conidia on the Cheongah medium containing Cheongah powder. V. nashicola grew too slow to produce conidia until 15 days after cultivation but produced conidia with $4{\time}10^4$ conidia/plate 30 days after cultivation on the Cheongah medium containing 1% Cheongah powder. V. nashicola showed a peak production of conidia with $4.5{\times}10^5$ conidia/plate 60 days after cultivation on the carrot medium containing 2% carrot powder, one of the constituents of Cheongah powder. The carrot medium is considered to be the best medium to obtain conidia of V. nashicola in the laboratory until now. This is the first report on the development of a suitable medium for conidia production of V. nashicola, as far as we know.

Purpose: Drying characteristics of the sliced carrot and green pumpkin were investigated by using the waste heat dryer. Methods: The effects of drying temperature ($T$) and slice thickness affecting drying time were analyzed. Mathematical models for the drying curves were determined with statistical analysis of drying data. Effective diffusivity was determined for the slices of carrot and green pumpkin under various drying conditions. Results: Drying time was reduced at the drying conditions of thinner slice and higher drying temperature. Moisture ratio ($MR$) according to drying time ($t$) was well presented as an exponential function at all of drying conditions for the slices of carrot and green pumpkin with the determination coefficient ($r^2$) of >0.99. The values of effective diffusivity ($D_{ff}$) of the slices for carrot and green pumpkin were increased with increasing the drying temperature. The relationship between Ln($D_{ff}$) and $1/T$ was linear with the determination coefficient ($r^2$) of >0.97. Conclusions: Drying model was well established as an exponential function at all of drying conditions for drying samples.
