To develop the processing methods of grape and increase the use of poor fruits, we researched the health drink made with them after making grape juice and vinegar. The grape heated at $80^{\circ}C$ during 30min was followed by filtration. Grape vinegar was prepared by alcohol and acetic acid fermentation of grape. Optimum initial alcohol concentration for acetic acid fermentation was 6-8%. Acetic acid fermentation of grape vinegar manufactured in onggi took 9 days and was faster than any other type of utensil. As the result of analysis of grape vinegar fermented in the various ratio of 'Campbell Early' and 'Kyoho' grape, the redness and total anthocyanin content and the score of sensory evaluation were higher in vinegar made with 100% 'Campbell Early'. The drink manufactured by adding grape vinegar was developed and adding 10% of grape vinegar to volume of grape juice and water mixture(1:1) was best in sensory evaluation. In this mixture, sugar content was $14^{\circ}$Bx.

This study examines the physicochemical property and antioxidant activity of wild grape juice, and the result is as follows. Total anthocyanin and color intensity contents of wild grape juice were $17.0{\pm}0.1%$ and $33.9{\pm}1.4%$, respectively. The contents of total phenols and flavonoid in wild grape juice were $25.4{\pm}3.1$ mg/100g, $4.4{\pm}1.4$ mg/100 g, respectively. Total mineral content in wild grape juice was $28.5{\pm}8.4$ mg/l00 g and the potassium content($11.3{\pm}0.3$ mg/100 g) was the highest Electron donating abilities of wild grape juice at concentration of $1,000\;{\mu}L$/mL were $94.8{\pm}1.2%$ Reducing power of wild grape juice at concentration of $1,000\;{\mu}L$/mL was 1.134. The electron donating abilities and reducing power were increased significantly with the sample concentration in the reaction mixture increased The nitrite scavenging ability was dependent on pH of the reaction mixture and sample concentration. The nitrite scavenging ability of wild grape juice was $77.1{\pm}1.1%$ at concentration of $1,000\;{\mu}L$/mL under pH 1.2.

Physicochemical analysis of the wild grape juice and its wine extracted with ethanol were assessed. The contents of moisture in wild grape juice and its wine were 78.7${\pm}$0.2% and 74.4${\pm}$O.4%, respectively. Total anthocyanin and flavonoid contents of wild grape juice were higher 4 times and 10 times than those of wild grape wine, respectively. Of the 17 amino acids, the glutamic acid in wild gape juice and threonine in wild grape wine were the highest, which were 43.7${\pm}$1.4mg/100 g and 14.1${\pm}$0.7 mg/100 g, respectively. Electron donating abilities of wild grape juice and its wine at concentration of 1,000 ${\mu}$g/ml were 93.1${\pm}$1.2% and 88.9${\pm}$O.8%, respectively. The nitrite scavenging abilities of wild grape juice and its wine were gradually increased by increasing levels of the extracts to 79.6${\pm}$1.27% and 72.8${\pm}$1.01% at concentration of 1,000 ${\mu}$g/ml under pH 2.5.

This study investigated the antioxidant activities of wine made with aronia (Aronia melanocarpa). The ethanol concentration of the aronia wine was increased up to 7.8±0.1% on the 8th day of fermentation. Compared to other types of wine, the total amount of organic acids was highest in raspberry wine, followed by grape wine, arona wine, and aronia juice. Because, acetic, oxalic, and succinic acids were not detected in the aronia juice, but were detected in the aronia wine, it was determined that they were produced during alcohol fermentation. The polyphenol content in the aronia juice and wine was higher than in the grape wine and raspberry wine and was twice as much in the aroni wine than in the aronia juice. The flavonoid content in aronia juice and wine was higher than in commercial grape wine and raspberry wine. The DPPH radical scavenging ability was higher than 50% in the aronia wine and juice samples. ABTS radical scavenging activity was higher in aronia juice and wine than in raspberry wine and grape wine. The results of this study suggest that the development of wine with high antioxidant activity is possible if wine is made with aronia.

In the course of a study in relation to the production of taste, and functional enhancements in root crop chips, which were prepared by soaking dried yam slices in fruit juices, we investigated the physiological characteristics and biological activities of 8 different commercially available juices including; apple, omija (fruit of Maximowiczia typica), grape, wild grape, orange, tomato, red ginseng and black garlic juice. The average water contents, pH, brix and acidity of the juices used were $85.59{\pm}5.80%$, $3.90{\pm}0.64$, $12.19{\pm}4.70%$, and $0.49{\pm}0.19%$, respectively. The polyphenol content of black garlic and grape juice were 1.50 and 1.21 mg/ml, respectively, and those were higher than the average content (0.57 mg/mL) of the juices. Evaluation of anticoagulation activity showed that only omija juice has a strong thrombin inhibition, which is comparable to that of aspirin (1.5 mg/mL). Omija, grape and orange juice all exhibited antibacterial activity, but no antifungal activity. The 8 different juices, and in particular grape and black garlic juice, showed strong antioxidant activity in DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity assays, with wild grape juice demonstrating potent nitrite scavenging activity. These results suggest that omija, grape and black garlic juice can be used as soaking solutions to produce taste, and other functional enhancements, for root crop chips.

Fruit juices such as grape juice are associated with healthy products by consumers because of the many health benefits they provide. Farm produced (FPGJ) and commercially produced grape juice (CPGJ) in South Korea were compared and studied through the evaluation of their physicochemical, functional, and sensory properties. The results of this study show that FPGJ's physicochemical properties are more varied than CPGJ. The pH, titratable acidity, and total soluble solids of FPGJ were higher than CPGJ. FPGJ had a higher mean value for total phenolics ($2,558.20{\pm}50.06\;mg/L$ GAE), total flavonoid ($3,236.80{\pm}56.11\;mg/L$), total anthocyanin ($559.88{\pm}3.51\;mg/L$), and radical scavenging activity (86.48%) than CPGJ, although the differences were significant only with regard to total flavonoid and total anthocyanin. This study also demonstrates that CPGJ is preferred in terms of sensory evaluation. These properties may be used as a basis for the optimization of processing to produce a higher quality grape juice.

Purpose: Fruit and vegetable juices are known to be rich sources of antioxidants, which have beneficial effects on diseases caused by oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to directly compare the antioxidant activities of fruit and vegetable juices marketed in Korea. Methods: We analyzed four fruit juices, two vegetable juices, two yellow-green juices, and six mixed vegetable juices. Antioxidant activities were analyzed using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) test, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) test, and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. Protective effects against DNA damage were determined using an ex vivo comet assay with human lymphocytes. Results: DPPH radical scavenging activities were in the following order: blueberry juice > mixed vegetable C juice > kale juice > mixed vegetable P juice > grape juice. ABTS radical scavenging activities were in the following order: blueberry juice > mixed vegetable C juice > grape juice > mixed vegetable P juice > kale juice. Peroxyl radical scavenging activities as assessed by ORAC assay were in the following order: blueberry juice > kale juice > mixed vegetable C juice > grape juice. Grape or blueberry juice showed strong abilities to prevent DNA damage in lymphocytes, and the difference between them was not significant according to the GSTM1/GSTT1 genotype. Conclusion: Antioxidant activities of fruit and vegetable juices and ex vivo DNA protective activity increased in the order of blueberry juice, grape juice, and kale juice, although the rankings were slightly different. Therefore, these juices rich in polyphenols and flavonoids deserve more attention for their high antioxidant capacity.

We evaluated the physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of, bioactive compounds in grape juice prepared from different grape varieties grown in Korea, such as Campbell Early, Steuben, and Muscat Bailey A (MBA), with respect to heating time (30, 45, or 60 min) and temperature ($60^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$, or $90^{\circ}C$). We found that long heating time and high temperature, especially treatment at $90^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, significantly affected the physicochemical properties and bioactive compound levels of grape juice. Among the grape juice varieties, Campbell Early juice had the highest level of bioactive compounds. Sensory evaluation scores showed that heating of musts at $80^{\circ}C$ for 30 min was associated with the most preferred sensory attributes for Campbell Early grape juice, whereas the most preferred juices from Steuben and MBA grapes were from musts heated at $70^{\circ}C$ for 60 min and at $70^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, respectively. The bioactive compounds of juice from the three grape varieties were optimal using the above-mentioned processing times and temperatures.

Campbell juice (25%, 50%, 70% and 90%) was blended with different concentrations (10%, 25%, 30% and 50%) of juice from a range of grape varieties including Kyoho, Steuben and MBA. The concentrations of Campbell and the grape variety juices influenced the physicochemical characteristics of the blended grape juice. As the concentration of Campbell juice increased, there was an increase in the mean content of bioactive compounds including total phenolics, anthocyanin and flavonoids, and the radical scavenging activity increased. The treatment containing 25% juice from the various grape varieties had the lowest level of bioactive compounds. A sensory evaluation showed there was no significant difference among the blended juice samples in terms of aroma. The sample comprising 50% Campbell + 50% Kyoho was the most acceptable in terms of taste and overall acceptability, while the sample comprising 90% Campbell + 10% MBA was the most acceptable in terms of color and aroma.

The total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of grape and fruit juice products in the Korean market were examined The total phenolic content was measured by the Folin-Ciocalteau method, and antioxidant activities were evaluated by FRAP and DPPH assays. The total phenolic content of the grape juice products were within the range $57.95{\sim}205.64\;mg/L$. Orange juice had the strongest antioxidant activity, apple juice the weakest, and grape juice was intermediate. Grape juice products exhibited a wide range of antioxidant activities. Especially, GU4, GU5, and GU9 exhibited about 80% of the DPPH radical scavenging activities, similar to the antioxidant activities by the FRAP assay. The antioxidant activities by FRAP and DPPH assays were well correlated with the total phenolic content of grape juice products (> 0.97).
