This study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical and sensory properties of the cookies that were prepared with different concentrations [0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 6 % (w/w)]. The pH of the cookie dough increased significantly at all garlic juice concentrations greater than 1%. The highest dough density value was 1.23, which occurred in the 2% added group; however there was no remarkable differences among the test groups. The spread factor of the cookies showed an inverse relationship with the garlic juice concentration as compared to the control group (10.63). Hardness decreased with increasing garlic juice concentration at levels greater than 1%, and it ranged from 1857.92 to 1695.02. In addition, the L-value decreased with increasing garlic juice concentration, while the a-value gradually increased. In the case of the b-value, however, no significant difference was found compared to that of the control group. In the sensory evaluation, the color of the cookies (3.44-5.11) increased dose dependently with the garlic juice concentration. Taste scores were higher with garlic juice additions over 2%; whereas flavor was considerably greater compared to that of control group. The overall acceptability of the garlic juice cookies was higher than that of the control group. From this investigation, the optimal concentrations of added garlic juice for improvements in cookie quality were found in the range of 1-2%.

The antimicrobial activities of raw garlic and garlic juice heated for 30 min at $65^{\circ}C,\;80^{\circ}C,\;and\;95^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Activities against food poisoning bacteria were measured. Raw garlic and garlic juice heated at $65^{\circ}C$ showed strong antimicrobial activities, but the antimicrobial activity of garlic juice heated at $80^{\circ}C$ was much less, and no antimicrobial activity was seen in garlic juice heated at $95^{\circ}C$. Raw garlic and garlic juice heated at $65^{\circ}C$ completely inhibited the growth of Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhymurium, and Salmonella enteritidis at levels below 0.2%(w/v) of garlic solids. The inhibitory effects of garlic juice heated at $80^{\circ}C$ were much lower, against all bacteria tested.

The garlic juices were extracted and concentrated by heating at $90^{\circ}C$, by using a rotary vacuum evaporator at $45^{\circ}C$, or by freezing at $-50^{\circ}C$ until the volume was reduced to 70% of the original volume. The concentrated juices were kept at $4^{\circ}C\;or\;25^{\circ}C$ for 60 days and the changes of bacteria and color were monitored every 10 days. Flavors of the raw garlic juices, concentrated garlic juices, and garlic powder by hot-air drying were analyzed monthly using GC and GC/MS. The CFUs/mL of mesophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria in the garlic juice concentrated at $90^{\circ}C$ were lower about 1 to 2 log cycles than those of other concentrated juices. Hunter L, a, and b values in the raw garlic raw juice and the juice concentrated at $-50^{\circ}C$ significantly increased at the beginning of storage, in particular, when they were stored at $25^{\circ}C$. The garlic juice concentrated at $45^{\circ}C$ showed relatively low L value but the juice concentrated at $90^{\circ}C$ showed high a value. The main peaks in chromatograms of volatile components identified by GC/MS were 3,3'-thiobis-1-propene, di-2-propenyl disulfide, 3-(methylthio)-1-propene in the raw garlic juice and the concentrated juices, and the juices concentrated at $45^{\circ}C\;or\;-50^{\circ}C$ showed relatively high preservation of garlic flavor.

This study was conducted to develop healthy foods or natural preservatives with garlic (Allium sativum L.), ginger (Zingiber officinale R.) and onion (Allium cepa L.). The polyphenol contents of garlic, ginger and onion juice were analyzed, and they were tested for antioxidative and antibacterial activities. Their antioxidative activities were investigated in terms of their electron donating activity (EDA), SOD-like activity and nitrite scavenging ablity (NSA). Their antibacterial activities were tested against four kinds of pathogenic bacteria (L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, E. coli O157:H7, and Sal. typhimurium). The yields of the garlic, ginger and onion juice were 28.2, 24.3 and 38.3 percent, and their total polyphenol contents were 1,254, 1,523 and 412 mg/100 mL, respectively. The EDAs of the garlic and ginger juice ranged from 95 to 98 percent and over 90 percent in the 40 percent diluted solution. Their SOD-like activities were 64 and 67 percent, repectively. Onion juice had lower activities in EDAs and SOD-like activity than those of garlic and ginger juice. The NSAs of the garlic, ginger and onion juice were 56.5, 52.4 and 50.2 percent, respectively. The garlic juices showed antibacterial activity against four kinds of pathogenic bacteria (L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, E. coli O157:H7 and Sal. typhimurium) and the highest such activity against Sal. typhimurium. From all the results of the experiments, it can be concluded that garlic, ginger, onion can be used as a natural preservatives and can help develope healthy foods because of their antibacterial and antioxidative activities and abundunt polyphenols.

In order to examine the anticarcinogenic effects of garlic juice on the hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis induced by 9, 10-dimethyl-1, 2-benzanthracene (DMBA) totally 135 hamster.0.5% DMBA in mineral oil were painted onto the hamster buccal pouch three times a week on 50th, 70th and 90th day, while normal saline, 1% and 3% garlic juice were forced to oral tube feeding. Tumor cell induction could be seen on 50th experimental day, presumed to early carcinogenic inductive stage. And the tumor cells proliferated rapidly thereafter, so 70th and 90th experimental day were chosen for the comparison of anticarcinogenic effect of garlic juice. The every specimens were fixed in 10% buffered formalin for routine histopathological observation and also fixed in Carnoy's solution for the BrdU immunohistochemital detection of S-stage tumor cell distribution during the carcinogenesis. There showed more or less increased anticarcinogenic effect of garlic juice against DMBA induced hamster buccal pouch carcinoma, increased comparing to the control group showing invasive tumor growth after all histopathologically, BrdU immunoreactivity on normal pouch mucosa epithelium, representing the mitotic status, more decreased in the garlic juice feeding group than the control group. Meanwhile the neoplastic epithelium of all experimental groups showed much increased BrdU immunostaining irregularly.

Wild-garlic (Allium victorialis L.) is a perennial plant found in worldwide and has been considered as a favorite vegetable due to its particular smell and taste. However, the study of biological activity of wild-garlic and the development of processed food are in rudimentary. In this study, we evaluated several biological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and inhibitory activities against human thrombin, $\alpha$-amylase and $\alpha$-glucosidase, of Ulrung wild-garlic. Analysis of the composition showed that Ulrung wild-garlic is nutritive although it is perishable. The color of fresh juice was stably maintained during 10 days-storage at $4^{\circ}C$, but rapidly discolored by heat treatment at $70^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. During heat treatment, the contents of total sugar and total polyphenol were decreased to 75% and 50%, respectively, and acidity was increased from 0.069% to 0.111%. In a while, the brix, reducing sugar, and total flavonoids showed minor changes. The fresh juice showed strong DPPH scavenging activity, reducing power and antibacterial and antifungal activity, but the heat-treated juice lost the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The inhibitory activities against human thrombin and $\alpha$-amylase and $\alpha$-glucosidase was negligible in both fresh juice and heat-treated juice. These results suggested that the antioxidant and antimicrobial components in wild-garlic are heat-liable and volatile. Based on our results, we propose non-heat treatment products for processed wild-garlic, for example, fresh juice-added beverage or fermented liquors using wild-garlic.

To develop a new form of spice material by concentration of garlic juice, its rheological properties were investigated. In the temperature range of $15\;to\;65^{\circ}C$, the garlic juice with the solid content of $32\;to\;60^{\circ}Brix$ was considered as a pseudoplastic fluid. Flow and consistency indices of the juice interpreted by power-law equation varied from $0.9937\;to\;0.6130\;and\;0.0041\;to\;3.1886Pa{\;s^n$, respectively. Apparent viscosity was lineally decreased as shear rate was increased. Activation energy for the flow of the garlic juice changed in the range of 11,216 to 23,195 kJ/kg mol.

Changes in the alliinase activity during the aging of pickled garlic samples prepared by the several methods were investigated. The activity of alliinase in raw garlic was 8,37 units/mg protein. The ac-tivity in the garlic pickled with swoy sauce was reduced to 4.57 units/mg with 52% remaining by 1st week of pickling and to 1.05 units/mg protein with 12% remaining by 2nd week of pickling. The ac-tivity of alliinase in the garlic pickled with vinegar was 2.79 units/mg protein with 32% remaining by 1st week of pickling and was 0.26 units/mg protein only with 3% remaining by 2nd week of pickling. The activity of alliinase in the garlic pickled with 10% salt solution was 5.06 units/mg protein with 58% remaining by 1st week of pickling. After one week pickling the juice of pickled garlic was removed. Then garlics were pickled again with vinegar. The allinase acting in was reduced to 0.85 units/mg pro-tein with 10% remaining by 2nd week of pickling. The activity of alliinase in the garlic pickled with vin-egar was 2.79 units/mg protein with 32% remaining by 1st week of pickling. The juice of pickled garlic was removed after one week. Then the galics were again pickled with saysauce. The allinase activity in the garlic the garlic pickled again with soy sauce was reduced to 0.43 units/mg protein with 5% remain-ing by 2 week of pickling.

The antimicrobial activity of fresh garlic juice against Escherichia coli O157:H7 was investigated. When E. coli O157:H7 was cultured for 18 hr in the trypticase soy broth containing 1%, 3%, and 5% garlic juice, viable cell number of E. coli O157:H7 was reduced to $2.3{\times}10^2\;CFU/mL$ at 5% from $7{\times}10^8\;CFU/mL$ at the non-treated culture, respectively. The inhibitory effects of the ground beef treated with 3%, 6%, and 10% garlic juice against E. coli O157:H7 was significantly enhanced with approximate 2 log-reduction compared to that of ground beef without garlic. There was no significant difference in the inhibition of E. coli O157:H7 among the groups with different amounts of garlic juice (p<0.05). These results suggest that garlic juice may function well as a natural preservative in food system.
