Background: This study aimed to investigate the quality characteristics of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge leaf (AMBL) fermented with lactic acid bacteria and the applicability of its biologically active compounds. Methods and Results: An assessment of physicochemical properties such as pH, total acidity, free sugars, and isoflavonoid (calycosin-7-o-β-d-glucoside, ononin, calycosin, and formononetin) was conducted. Furthermore, the levels of antioxidant compounds, including polyphenols and flavonoids, and radical scavenging activities of the extracts using 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate and 2,2-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) were investigated. The calycosin content in the water extract of AMBL fermented with Leuconostoc mesenteroides increased by approximately twice as much as the control. Conclusions: These results indicate that L. mesenteroides can be used to improve biological activity through fermentation, and that AMBL can be used as a functional materials and edible resource in industrial areas.

오미자의 전통식품소재로의 활용성을 높이기 위해 물과 에탄올, 그리고 추출온도와 시간을 달리하여 추출하여 얻은 추출물로부터 항산화능과 혈당 강하능을 살펴보았다. 총 페놀함량은 추출온도에 따른 차이를 크게 나타내었다. 60$^{\circ}C$에서 추출하였을 때 실온에서 추출한 것보다 51${\sim}$68% 더 높은 함량을 나타내었고, 또한 물 추출보다는 60% 에탄올로 추출하였을 때 더 높은 페놀을 함유한 것으로 나타났다. DPPH 유리 라디칼 소거능을 비롯한 $ABTS^+$ 라디칼, Nitrite 소거능 또한 60$^{\circ}C$에서 60% 에탄올로 추출하였을 때 유의적으로 가장 높았으며, 환원력도 60% 에탄올 추출물이 가장 높은 환원력을 나타내었다. 오미자 추출물의 인슐린 비의존형인 제2형 당뇨환자들의 식후 혈당을 저하시키는 효능을 검토하기 위해 ${\alpha}$-glucosidase 의 활성 저해력을 살펴본 결과, 5가지 추출 조건중 60$^{\circ}C$에서 60% 에탄올로 추출한 추출물이 유의적으로 가장 높은 저해력을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 오미자로부터 유용성분 용출 및 기능성 증대를 위해 60$^{\circ}C$에서 60% 에탄올로 추출하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다.

Helicobacter pylori infection causes gastrointestinal diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and may lead to gastric cancer. Several studies have reported that lactobacilli present on broccoli show inhibitory activity against H. pylori. Here, we evaluated aqueous broccoli, fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum MG208, for its fermentation characteristics and anti-H. pylori activities including antibacterial activity, growth inhibition, anti-adhesion, and urease inhibition. The results indicated that the fermentation characteristics changed significantly depending on the amount of aqueous broccoli used for fermentation (p <0.05). There was no significant difference between the samples before fermentation (p >0.05). However, a significant concentration-dependent difference was noted in antibacterial activity and urease inhibition (p <0.05) following the addition of aqueous broccoli. Growth inhibition in the 10 mg/mL sample was significantly higher as compared to the negative control and similar to that with amoxicillin (positive control) (p <0.05). Anti-adhesion activity of aqueous broccoli was also significantly different (p <0.05) from the negative control. Therefore, aqueous broccoli fermented by L. plantarum MG208 could prove useful as a functional diet for protection of the gastric environment against H. pylori infection.

This study was conducted to investigate the hypotensive effect of egg white protein (EWP) hydrolysate (EWH) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). The hydrolysis of EWP was effectively performed with a combination of 0.5% bromelain and 1% papain at 50℃ for 60 min. The resulting hydrolysate did not elicit an allergic reaction as confirmed by human mast cell activation test. The systolic and diastolic blood pressures of the SHRs fed the EWH diet were observed to be significantly or numerically lower than those of the other groups during the experimental period of 28 d. EWH treatment significantly (p<0.05) upregulated the nitric oxide levels in hCMEC/D3 cells and the plasma of the SHRs compared to those in the control. Moreover, EWH ingestion significantly (p<0.01) reduced the plasma angiotensin II level of the SHRs compared with that in the control. In conclusion, beyond its basic nutritional value, EWH prevents and manages hypertension, and thus can be an invaluable resource for functional food development.

This study was performed in order to examine the functional and quality characteristics of raw noodles with added kale powder. The raw noodles were prepared at a concentration of 4, 8, and 12% (w/w) of the kale, based on flour weight. The antioxidant activity of kale powder, specifically DPPH free radical scavenging, reducing activity, and total phenolic content were found to be 75.16%, 1.24 (O.D.) and 44.47 mg GAE/g, respectively. Using Hunter Lab color values for raw noodle with added kale powder, L (lightness) values decreased with an increased concentration of kale powder, whereas a (redness) values decreased (p<0.001). In a texture analysis, chewiness (p<0.01), gumminess (p<0.001), and cohesiveness (p<0.001) increased significantly as the amount of added kale powder increased. According to sensory evaluations: color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall palatability had the highest score in noodle with 8% kale powder (p<0.001). During periods of storage, moisture contents were decreased when kale powder concentrations increased, but pH did not differ in any of the groups and bacteria cell counts were between 0% and 8%. Kale noodles were observed at 8% then 0%, decreased by 102 log CFU/g. The antioxidant activities of raw noodles with added kale powder were increased by 8%, a 30~50% increase over the control group. These results suggest that kale powder is useful as a functional food resource with antioxidant activities.

본 연구는 한방자원으로 널리 이용되고 있는 인진쑥을 음료 제조에 적용하여 음료를 개발하고 음료의 영양성 분과 그 유효성을 평가하고자 계획하였다. 이에 따라 개발된 음료의 일반성분, 무기질, 아미노산 함량을 분석하였고 인진쑥의 scopoletin 함유에 따른 혈행개선효과 및 피로회복능력을 평가하고자 운동선수들을 대상으로 음료섭 취 전과 6주간 음료를 섭취한 후에 각각 운동시작 전 안정상태 및 운동을 멈춘 직후의 심박수와 혈액성 분을 조사하여 비교하였다. 심박수, 혈중 젖산농도, 혈청의 포도당, creatinine, LBH, GOT, GPT 및 혈청의 지질농도가 6주간 규칙적으로 음료를 섭취한 후의 안정시나 운동직후에 모두 유의하게 낮아진 결과를 보였다． 이 결과에서 연구대상자들이 꾸준한 유산소 운동을 하고 있는 운동선수들이었으므로 단지 유산소 운동에 의한 결과는 아닐 것이며 6주간 섭취한 인진쑥의 작용이었으리라 판단된다 인진쑥에 함유된 구연산, 원활한 혈행을 돕는 scopoletin 및 6,7-dimethoxy-coumarin의 기능에 의한 결과로 사료되며 인진쑥 음료는 피로물질 감소에 의한 피로방지에 효과적이고 운동능력항상에 도움을 주는 것으로 제언할 수 있겠다. 운동선수뿐 아니라 특히 평소 운동시에도 꾸준히 섭취함으로써 근본적인 체내의 혈액순환이 원활해지므로 경기력 향상과 국민건강증진에 일익을 할 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 보다 많은 대상자들, 다양한 운동부하조건, 다른 음료와의 비교 등으로 다양한 임상 분석이 이루어지면 그 기전이나 효능을 명확히 할 수 있겠으나 본 결과가 향후 인진쑥을 이용한 기능성 음료의 개발과정에 기초자료로 활용되어지기를 기대한다.

Background: Recent inquiries into high-quality foods have discussed the importance of the functional aspects of foods, in addition to traditional quality indicators such as color, firmness, weight, trimming loss, respiration rate, texture, and soluble solid content. Recently, functional Chinese cabbage, which makes up a large portion of the vegetables consumed in Korea, has been identified as an anticancer treatment. However, the investigation of practical issues, such as the effects of storage conditions on quality indicators (including functional compounds), is still limited. Purpose: We reviewed various studies on variations in the quality indicators and functional compounds of Chinese cabbage in response to different storage environments, focusing on storage temperature and storage period. In particular, we emphasized the effect of storage temperature and storage period on glucosinolate (GSL) levels, in order to provide guidelines for optimizing storage environments to maximize GSLs. Additionally, we used response surface methodology to propose experimental designs for future studies exploring the optimal storage conditions for enhancing GSL contents. Review: Large variations in quality indicators were observed depending on the cultivar, the type of storage, the storage conditions, and the harvest time. In particular, GSL content varied with storage conditions, indicating that either low temperatures or adequate air composition by controlled atmospheric storage may preserve GSL levels, as well as prolonging shelf life. Even though genetic and biochemical approaches are preferred for developing functional Chinese cabbage, it is important to establish a practical method for preserving quality for marketability; a prospective study into optimal storage conditions for preserving functional compounds (which can be applied in farms), is required. This may be achievable with the comprehensive meta-analysis of currently published data introduced in this review, or by conducting newly designed experiments investigating the relationship between storage conditions and the levels of functional compounds.
