  • Functional properties of Solanium nigrum-ethanol extract were investigated, nitrite scavenging ability(NSA) and antioxidant activities based on thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value were measured. The contents of potassium in fruit and root, calcium in leaf were the highest mineral components in each parts of Solanium nigrum. Total aromatics contents(TAC) was order of fruit>root>leaf, total flavonoid contents(TFC) in leaf was 6 and 10 times, total phenolic compounds contents(TPC) in leaf was 15 and 30 times of those in fruit and root, respectively, and TFC was high with TPC increase. NSA of leaf-ethanol extract was 61.9% on pH 1.2, 53.5% on pH 3.0, 54.8% on pH 4.0 and 14.3% on pH 6.0, where as NSA of root and fruit-ethanol were considerably low to 3.5~7.9% over pH 1.2~6.0. TBA value of soybean oil with the dosage of leaf-extract showed few differences from control within 3 days, but it fairly decreased with considerable antioxidant effect to 47.6% of the control in 8 days.

  • The potentiometric responses for various anions are investigated with membrane electrode (membrane 1) based on 1,3-diethyl-1,3-dihydroxy-1,3-bis(2-dimethylaminomethyl ferrocenyl) disiloxane. The nitrate ion-selective electrode based on compound 1 gave a good Nernstian response of 58.18 mV per decade for nitrate with the detection limit of −e5.66 of log [NO3−e]. Compound 1 has all those functional groups and the other two compounds have less functional group of ferrocenyl or ferrocenyl and hydroxide, respectively. Even though, potentiometric response to anions was excellent at pH 5, the selectivity pattern for all three membrane electrode based on series of disiloxane is almost like Hofmeister sequence at pH 5. However, the membrane electrode 1-3 exhibited very different response to anions at pH 7. In this pH, NH2 is not protonated and ionophore may act as neutral carrier. Hydrogen bond may enhance the responsibility to hydrogen acceptors and intramolecular electro-active site may increase the permeability of analyte to ionophore in membrane.

  • We focused on the development of red azo colorants with high thermal stability and good solubility for LCD color filter in this research. For the synthesis of hybrid azo colorants, we used the couplers of aniline, naphthol and benzoimidazol functional group. The synthesized hybrid azo colorants were charaterized by using NMR, UV/visible spectroscopy, FT-IR, EA and TGA. They represented the maximum absorption wavelengths which are longer than 500 nm in UV/visible spectrum. So they were confirmed to be suitable for red colorants of LCD color filter. Azo compound (1a, 1b) with aniline functional group had good solubility in organic solvents such as acetone, methanol, chloroform and PGMEA. Moreover azo compounds (1c, 1d and 1e) with naphthol and benzoimidazolone functional group gave excellent thermal stability higher than $250^{\circ}C$ in TGA thermograms.

  • Nutritional composition, contents of phenolic compounds, and antioxidative activities of small black soybean were investigated. Proximate composition of the soybean was crude fat, crude protein, carbohydrate, and crude ash at 15.9, 34.7, 38.5, and 3.7%, respectively. Potassium was the predominant mineral, followed by phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium. Glucose and galactose were the major sugars. Twelve different kinds of fatty acids were identified in whole soybean, dehulled soybean, and soybean hull. The 75% methanol and ethyl acetate extract fractions from the soybean hull contained total phenolic compounds at 4.64 and 13.53 g/100 g, respectively. The methanol extract of soybean hull showed strongest antioxidative activity among samples tested. Ethyl acetate fraction of the soybean hull exhibited DPPH radical scavenging activity at level similar to those of ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ and BHT. Phenolic compounds were the major biological components in the soybean hull. These results suggest that small black soybean can be used as a new material for functional food.

  • Background: Astragali radix (A) and Lithospermi radix (L) have long been used as traditional medicines due to their known anti-inflammatory effects. This study aimed at evaluating, their optimal mixing ratio and their functional compounds by investigating the inhibitory effects of mixed extracts of A and L and their active compounds on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Methods and Results: A and L extracts were obtained by extraction at $80^{\circ}C$ using 50% and 70% fermented alcohol, respectively, and then mixed at a ratio of 5 : 5, 6 : 4, 7 : 3 and 8 : 2 (w/w). The activities of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-13 were evaluated in interleukin-1beta ($IL-1{\beta}$)-induced SW1353 cells. The extract mixtures showed synergistic inhibitory effects on MMP-3 and MMP-13, higher than the effects of the individual A and L extracts. The 7 : 3 mixture (ALM16) showed the most effective MMPs inhibitory activity, while among the active ingredients, calycosin-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside and lithospermic acid exhibited excellent MMPs inhibitory activity. Additionally, an HPLC method was established for simultaneous quantification of the effective components of the extract mixtures, and validated by measuring the linearity, precision and accuracy of the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). Conclusions: ALM16 showed the most effective MMPs inhibitory activity. Calycosin-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside, calycosin and lithospermic acid were identified as useful candidates, as they were the major functional compounds in the MMP inhibitory activity. Summarily, ALM16 might be a highly effective in osteoarthritis management, owing to its because it exhibits a protective effect on cartilage via excellent inhibition of MMPs.

  • Flavonoids in pine needles are known to be effective scavengers of free radical. Especially, proanthocyanidin, a kind of flavonoids possesses cardiovascular protection and antioxidative activities. Here, we evaluated proanthocyanidin contents in total polyphenolic compounds of pine needle extracts prepared by using hot water, ethanol, hexane or sub-supercritical $CO_2$. Analyses of total polyphenolic compounds and proanthocyanidin in each extracts indicated that hot water extract contained the highest concentrations, but sub-supercritical extract contained the lowest concentrations. On the other hand, evaluation of proanthocyanidin contents in total polyphenolic compounds in each extracts showed that sub-supercritical extract possessed the highest content, but hot water extract possessed the lowest content. These results indicate that extracts containing high concentrations of both total polyphenolic compounds and proanthocyanidin could be obtained by using hot water or ethanol extractions. Furthermore, extract containing high content of proanthocyanidin out of total polyphenolic compounds could be achieved by using sub-supercritical extraction. Measurement of antioxidative activities of extracts showed that hot water extract possessed the highest activity. In this study, we prepared extracts from pine needles by four different methods and evaluated the antioxidative compounds in extracts that could be used for effective components of functional food products.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the appearance, sensory and physicochemical characteristics of muffin added glutinous(GSP) and non-glutinous sorghum powder(NGSP). As increasing the amounts of sorghum powder, proximate (moisture, ash and protein) and minerals composition(K, Ca, Mg and Na) of muffin were significant difference. The weight, volume, height, lightness(L-value) and yellowness(b-value) were decreased as increasing the amounts of sorghum powder. In the results of sensory evaluation, appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality of untreated muffin were 1.4, 1.6, 1.4, 1.0, 1.1 and 0.9, and muffin added 10% GSP and NGSP were scored relatively high. Antioxidant compounds contents of muffin added sorghum powder were increased as increasing the amounts of sorghum powder. DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activities on methanolic extracts of untreated muffin were 0.74 and 1.31 mg TE/g ER, respectively. DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activities of 100% GSP muffin were 9.40 and 19.14 mg TE/g ER, and 100% NGSP muffin were 10.59 and 18.78 mg TE/g ER, respectively. The results of this study show that notable antioxidant compounds and antioxidant activity on muffin added sorghum powder are considered to have significant health benefits.
