This study was peformed to investigate the synergistic effects of catechin and ascorbic acid on antioxidative activities of methanol and hexane extracts (500 ppm) from rosemary, sage, oregano, and ginger. Ascorbic acid (200 ppm) and (-)-catechin (200 ppm) could be solubilized in a rice bran oil via a reverse micelles using small amount of water and dioctyl sulfosuccinate as the sufactant. Methanol extracts from rosemary, sage, oregano, and ginger showed the synergistic effects by (-)-catechin. However, methanol extracts showed the synergistic effect by ascorbic acid except that of ginger. The synergistic effects of (-)-catechin on methanol extracts were higher than those of ascorbic acid. Hexane extracts of oregano and ginger showed the synergistic effects by (-)-catechin, and no synergistic effects by ascorbic acid. On the other hand, rosemary and sage showed the synergistic effects by ascorbic acid and no synergistic effects by (-)-catechin.

This study was performed to investigate the antioxidative effects of solvent extracts of eighteen curry spices. Yields of the curry spices extracted by methanol, ethylacetate and hexane were $6.4{\sim}42.9%$, $3.9{\sim}26.2%$ and $1.6{\sim}29.2%$, respectively. Methanol, ethylacetate and hexane extracts of spices were added up to 1,500 ppm in the rice bran oil and antioxidative effects of extracts were tested by Rancimat. Induction periods of spices extracted by methanol were in the order of rosemary(33.5hr)>sage(29.1hr)>ginger(28.6hr)>turmeric(26.9hr)>nutmeg(25.8hr)>oregano(25.6hr)>thyme(25.3hr)>BHT(24.5hr)>control(22.6hr). Those of ethylacetate extracts were as follows: rosemary(43.9hr)>sage(30.9hr)>oregano(29.0hr)>thyme(27.5hr)>ginger(27.1hr)>BHT(24.5hr)>control(22.6hr). Those of hexane extracts were in the order of rosemary(47.4hr)>sage(31.4hr)>oregano(27.3hr)>ginger(25.5hr)>thyme(25.1hr)>control(22.6hr). Solvent extracts of rosemary, sage, oregano, ginger and thyme showed significant antioxidative effects. Two thousands ppm hexane-extract of rosemary was the most effective. Addition of hexane-extracts of rosemary didn't show any synergism with the hexane extracts of sage, oregano, ginger, and thyme.

In the results of sensory evaluation, beef steak was preferred with the highest overall acceptability while lamb steak was less preferred than pork in flavor and overall acceptability. Sensory tests were conducted to examine whether taste, aroma, or texture is the dominant contributor to people's ability to identify the animal species of meat. The meat samples used were beef, pork, and lamb. Panelists wearing eye masks ate cooked pieces, patties, and heated soups prepared from the meats of these 3 species with and without pinching their noses to regulate the aroma sensation. The results led us to the conclusion that aroma is the most important contributor to the identification of lamb meat, with texture being the 2nd most important contributor. The contribution of taste appeared much smaller than that of aroma and texture. A sensory evaluation of lamb steaks with added herbs or herbal vegetables showed that steak with ginger and rosemary was preferred as having the significantly highest overall acceptability. It was also more preferred au 3 kinds of steak with added garlic and mint, garlic and rosemary, and ginger and mint in appearance, taste and flavor, although there was no significant difference. In difference test, odor was least noticeable in lamb steak when ginger and rosemary were added. Its taste gained the highest preference level, although the difference was not significant. A sensory evaluation that measured the effect of herbs and herbal vegetables on lamb steaks showed that steak with ginger and rosemary had the significantly highest overall acceptability. The second most preferred was beef steak, which had most significantly preferred in taste, and which ranked lower than lamb in flavor with no significant differences. The difference test showed lamb steak with ginger and rosemary scored the least odor and the highest level of palatability.

Repellencies of herb plants and essential oils against alate Myzus persicae were investigated in a insect cage, a screen house, and a tobacco field. Numbers of nymphs deposited by alate or apterous Myzur persicae were lower on rosemary(Rosmarinus officinalis), silver thyme (Thymus vulgaris), and lemon balm(Melissa of fcianazis). Rosemary and silver thyme show little repellency against alate Myzus persicae on a nearby tobacco plant Rosemary oil, peppermint (Mentha piperita) oil, and ginger oil showed repellency against alate Myzus persicae, but spearmint (Mentha spicata) oil and lavender oil showed little repellency in a screen house. Rosemary oil, ginger oil, peppermint oil, lavender oil, and spearmint oil showed repellency against alate Myzus persicae in a tobacco field, but there was no significant difference among oils.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of herbs, including rosemary, thyme, oregano, ginger, and green tea, on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Yagkwa. After 16 days of storage at $60^{\circ}C$, all the herb-added samples showed significantly lower values for acid, TEA and peroxide than the control. The samples with rosemary and thyme showed significantly higher antioxidant activities than the other samples. The samples with rosemary and ginger showed significantly lower L-values than the control sample and the samples with thyme, oregano and green tea showed significantly lower a-values than the control. For the b-value, the control sample had the highest value. In the sensory evaluation of the Yakgwa, there were no significant differences between the samples in terms of color, flavor and texture. For overall acceptability, the rosemary-added sample showed the highest score among the samples and the thyme-added sample showed a significantly lower score than the control. In the texture analysis, all the herb-added samples, except for green tea, showed higher hardness than the control. In conclusion, the addition of herbs would be a useful way to enhance the antioxidant quality of yakgwa and rosemary would be the best choice when considering antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics.

The purpose of this study was to provide the basic information of making Skate pipyun made of skate skin. Test for quality characteristics of skate pipyuns seasoned with garlic, ginger, rosemary and basil were carried out. Hardness of GAR(4% of garlic and rosemary) was the highest, while that of GIB(4% of ginger and basil) was the lowest. As for the adhesiveness, springiness and cohesiveness, each specimen did not manifest significant difference. Water contents (82.43~85.56%) were no significant differences. The pipyuns added with spices and herbs were appeared weakly alkali with a range of pH 8.46~8.58. In the sensory evaluation, GIB was the most preferred in overall preference with significantly higher evaluation of flavor, savory taste, and lower fishy odor. The stability of gels decreased during storage at $10^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours, and at $20^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, and the greater was in GIB. Therefore, heating a mixture of 40% skate skin with 60% water for 10 min is recommended as optimum conditions for producing Skate pipyun.

Effects of antimicrobial herbs on growth of tactic acid bacteria were investigated to extend shelf-life of Dongchimi, kimchi made with radishes and spices. Marta rosemary, among eight foreign and domestic herbs, showed strongest antimicrobial activity against seven kinds of lactic acid bacteria. Spices such as spring onion, garlic, and ginger showed no antimicrobial activity against lactic acid bacteria. During fermentation of Dongchimi for 6 days at $35^{\circ}C$, addition of marta rosemary inhibited acid formation, maintaining optimal pH of 3.8-4.2 throughout fermentation period, while no inhibitory effect was observed from Sambaekho (Saurus chinensis), pepper mint, and stevia. Results show shelf-life of Dongchimi was extended by addition of marta rosemary, which controlled over-production of tactic acid by inhibiting bacterial growth.

To make functional fresh-cut yam using natural spices, the water or the methanol extract was prepared from different kinds of natural spices including ginger, wasabi, black pepper, mustard, cinnamon, chinese pepper, garlic, thyme, rosemary, chamomile, and peppermint. The extraction yields were varied as spice sources and extraction solvents used. Among the water extracts, peppermint extract showed strong antithrombosis activity with 26-folds extended thrombin time, and the $IC_{50}s$ of the extracts from cinnamon and rosemary were $61.3{\mu}g/ml\;and\;84.3{\mu}g/ml$ in DPPH scavenging assay, respectively. Whereas, the antimicrobial activity of all water extracts was ignorable. Among the methanol extracts, the extracts from thyme, ginger, and cinnamon showed antimicrobial activity against yam putrefactive bacteria. Strong antioxidative activity was found in the extracts from cinnamon and thyme. Based on these results, the functional fresh-cut yam was prepared using the water extract from peppermint or cinnamon. The antioxidative and antithrombin activities in the fresh-cut yam were maintained at $4^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr. Our results suggest that the natural spices could be applied to production of functional fresh-cut yam.

In this study, we analyzed the physicochemical and sensory properties of black goat jerky marinated with various spices (non-spice, control; rosemary, RO; basil, BA; ginger, GI; turmeric, TU; and garlic, GA). The physicochemical properties of black goat jerky analyzed were pH, water holding capacity, color, cooking yield, shear force, and fatty acid composition. The sensory characteristics were analyzed through the aroma profile (electronic nose), taste profile (electronic tongue), and sensory evaluation. The pH and water holding capacity of the GI showed higher values than the other samples. GI and GA showed similar values of CIE L^* and CIE a^* to that of the control. The shear force of the GI and TU was significantly lower than that of other samples (p<0.05). Regarding fatty acid composition, GI showed high unsaturated and low saturated fatty acid contents compared with that of the other samples except for RO (p<0.05). In the aroma profile, the peak area of hexanal, which is responsible for a faintly rancid odor, was lower in all treatment groups than in the control. In the taste profile, the umami of spice samples was higher than that of the control, and among the samples, GI had the highest score. In the sensory evaluation, the GI sample showed significantly higher scores than the control in terms of flavor, aroma, goaty flavor, and overall acceptability (p<0.05). Therefore, marinating black goat jerky with ginger powder enhanced the overall flavor and reduced the goat odor.
