To evaluate the effect of Hydrangea serrata Seringe extract on kakdoogi(Korean radish kimchi), the kakdoogi was prepared, after supplementation, with Hydrangea serrata Seringe extract(0, 1.25, 2.5 and 5%(v/w)). The quality characteristics of the kakdoogi were investigated during 7 days of fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The proximate components of the Hydrangea serrata Seringe leaves were 3.48% crude protein, 6.45% crude lipid, 7.98% crude fiber and 9.32% crude ash. The pH values in the samples with the extract were higher than that of both the control group and the sugar group. The total acidity levels in the sugar group was higher than that of other groups. The sugar group showed higher L value(lightness) than that of kakdoogi fermented with the extract. A value(redness) and B value(yellowness) of the supplemented kakdoogi was lower than that of the control and the sugar group on day 7. The hardness of samples with the extract was higher than that of the sugar group. And the hardness of the groups with the extract was not reduced during the fermentation period. The control group showed higher salinity than the other groups by day 4. The samples with the extract were sweeter than the control group on day 0 then the difference disappeared after day 2. Sourness of all the groups increased during the fermentation period. However the extract did not affect the hardness or overall acceptability of the kakdoogi during fermentation.

To find the optimum proportion of Hydrangea serrata Seringe(HSS) powder, rice cakes were prepared with different quantities of Hydrangea serrata Seringe powder instead of sugar. Technical and sensory examinations were then conducted. The proximate components of the HSS leaves were 3.48% crude protein, 6.45% crude lipid, 7.98% crude fiber and 9.32% crude ash. The pH values of samples which replaced 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of sugar with the HSS powder were significantly decreased(p<0.05). The groups with HSS powder showed a lower L value(lightness) and a value(redness) than that of the control group. The B value(yellowness) of the Sulgidduk containing the HSS powder was higher than that of the control group. The hardness of HS2 and HS3 was increased by the addition of the HSS powder. The adhesiveness of Sulgidduk groups with the HSS powder was higher than that of the control group. Springiness was not changed by adding the HSS powder. The cohesiveness of the Sulgidduk was significantly reduced by adding the HSS powder(p<0.001). The groups with no sugar showed the highest gumminess and chewiness. The added HSS powder caused both a darker color and a stronger odor, but the sweetness of the Sulgidduk which replaced the sugar with the HSS powder was decreased compared to the control group. The moisture content and the hardness was not affected by the addition of the HSS powder. The preference of color and taste was not changed by adding the HSS powder. The preference of flavor of the Sulgidduk with the HSS powder showed higher than that of the control. Overall acceptability of the Sulgidduk did not show any significant differences. As a result, Sulgidduk can be replaced 25% and 50% of sugar with the Hydrangea serrata Seringe powder.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of persimmon jelly products with different levels (3, 5, and 7% w/w) of Daebong ripened persimmon puree was investigated. The moisture content of all jelly products used in this experiments was maintained within $8{\pm}2%$ of the products. Levels of crude chemical composition (moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, and crude ashes), texture, soluble materials, vitamin C, dietary fiber and ${\beta}$-carotene were increased as amount of puree addition increased in the products. Color values, $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ of the persimmon jelly products were 33.08-42.04, 0.93-1.31 and 8.85-11.21, respectively. There was no significant difference in pH (5.51-5.61) as the levels of Daebong ripened persimmon puree increased. Sensory evaluation in terms of appearance, color, taste, flavor, chewiness, and overall acceptance resulted in the highest score in the persimmon jelly product with 5% level of Daebong ripened persimmon puree. In conclusion, level of Daebong ripened persimmon puree affected color value, texture and vitamin C, dietary fiber, and ${\beta}$-carotene content of the persimmon jelly products. In addition, optimum level of Daebong ripened persimmon puree would be 5% for manufacturing the persimmon jelly product.

This study investigated the nutritional compositions and physiochemical properties of three domestically cultivated jujube fruits (Boeun, Sangwhang, and Bokjo). Nutrient contents were analyzed by freeze-drying the jujube fruits. The results showed that the proximate compositions of the three jujube cultivars ranged from 7.85~13.52% for moisture, 4.65~5.24% for crude protein, 1.29~2.38% for crude ash, 0.17~1.09% for crude lipid, and 7.66~16.63% for crude fiber. The above proximate contents of jujube cultivars were significantly different. Mineral contents of Al, Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, and K in the three jujube fruits were also determined. Mn, Cu and Zn were not detected in any of the varieties. The content of Al was higher in Sangwhang, while Boeun had higher contents of Ca and K. The total polyphenol, ABTS values, and hypoglycemic effect were slightly higher in Boeun as compared to the other varieties. Taken together, Boeun could be an important source of natural antioxidant as a functional food.

We investigated the nutritional characteristics and antioxidant effects of sea mustard Undaria pinnatifida fractions from Gultongmeori in Taejongdae, Youngdo, Busan. Based on dry weight, the moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, crude ash, and crude fiber contents were 34.98%, 11.55%, 0.43%, 17.82%, and 3.45%, respectively. To evaluate the antioxidant effect, we used radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS), reactive oxygen species (ROS) production measurement, and DNA oxidation assays. Total flavonoid and phenol contents were higher in the n-hexane fraction than in other fractions. The n-hexane fraction was more effective at scavenging free radicals than other fractions as assessed using DPPH and ABTS assays (P<0.05). The ROS production assay showed that all sea mustard fractions decreased H₂O₂ induced cellular ROS production compared to that seen in the control (P<0.05); however, the n-hexane fraction reduced cellular ROS production to a greater extent than the other fractions. Furthermore, the n-hexane fraction from Gultongmeori significantly inhibited genomic DNA oxidation. These results indicate that the antioxidant effect of sea mustard is associated with its high flavonoid and phenol content. This study proposes that processed food products supplemented with sea mustard can be developed as functional foods to promote health in the local population.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of several additives(macroalgae, wasabi, and herb) in formulated diets on the growth, body composition, blood chemistry and non-specific immune response of juvenile flounder. Three replicates of juveniles (average weight 8.4 g) in flow-through aquarium system were fed one of six isonitrogenous (45%) and isolipidic (8%) diets containing 5 and 10% Undaria powder, 2% wasabi leaf, 2% wasabi stem, and 0.5% herb (Obosan) for 8 weeks. Survival was not affected by the different dietary additives (P>0.05). The highest weight gain and feed efficiency offish fed the diet containing 0.5% herb were significantly higher than those of fish fed the diets containing 10% Undaria powder (P<0.05). No significant differences were found in contents of moisture, crude protein, lipid and ash of whole body (P>0.05). Fish fed the diet containing 10% Undaria powder showed the highest moisture and the lowest crude lipid contents in the liver. Although hematological parameters (red blood cell, hematocrit and hemoglobin) and serum constituents (glucose, total cholesterol and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase) contents of fish varied between treatments, no specific trend was observed throughout feeding periods. Lysozyme activity in the serum and nitroblue tetrazolium reduction of macrophage in the head kidney from fish fed the diets containing herb was significantly higher than those of fish fed the control diet. The results of this study suggest that herb as an additive in this formulated diet may improve growth and non-specific immune response of juvenile flounder.

This study was to evaluate effects of agar, sodium alginate and carrageenan on quality of Yugwa(Busuge) base. In the base preparation agar, sodium alginate and carrageenan were added 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0%(w/w), respectively. Volume, shape, hardness, color(L, a and b value), crude lipid content and sensory evaluation(taste and crispness) of the Yugwa base was measured. Volume of the base was higher than control in case of 0.1-0.5%(w/w) agar, sodium alginate and carrageenan, of which sodium alginate was the highest. Shapes were similar to control. Hardness and crude lipid content was decreased proportional to amount of addition of the three seesweed polysaccharides, the whiteness(L-value) was increased but the yellowness(a-value) and the redness(b-value) decreased. Taste and crispness were increased in the case of 0.1-1.0%(w/w) of sodium alginate, but agar and carrageenan decreased.

In this study, antioxidative potentials of the crude extract and its four solvent fractions from the Arctic terrestrial plant Ranunculus heperporeus were evaluated by using four different activity tests, including the inhibition of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation in Raw 264.7 cells as well as determining the extent of both the scavenging of peroxynitrite ($ONOO^-$) and the oxidative damage of genomic DNA purified from Raw 264.7 cells. Based on a comparative analysis, n-BuOH, and 85% aq.MeOH solvent fractions showed good scavenging effects on the production of intracellcular ROS and inhibited membrane lipid peroxidation and DNA oxidation. In addition, n-BuOH and 85% aq.MeOH fractions exhibited good scavenging effects on both authentic peroxynitrite and one generated from SIN-1. Among the samples tested, the n-BuOH fraction revealed the strongest antioxidant effect.
