This study was conducted to examine the possibility of improvement effect in Takju mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage mash. Alcohol was highly generated in comparison with the control on fermentation time in case of the ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage mash. Reducing sugar was also highly produced after 2 days on the second stage, and amount of reducing sugar was indicated to be decreased between $4\~6$ days. Total acidity was shown not to be practically changed after 2 days in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage in comparison with the control. Fusel oil produced from mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was less generated in comparison with the control. Yeast growth on the mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was revealed to be highly in comparison with the control through fermentation periods. Precipitation velocity of suspension in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was shown to be 1.5 times lower than that of the control. Precipitation amount in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was not nearly changed on the storage time. The astringency and bitterness were slightly decreased, while on the other turbidity and refreshing were increased in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$. In general overall preferences was indicated to be fully satisfied in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ in comparison with the control. Nasty smell of Takju added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was recognized after 6 days during storage.

To protect skin problems, new natural material alternative to synthetic antioxidants has been extensively selected from natural sources such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. Poncirus trifoliata of those has been widely used as treatment of allergy, chronic inflammatory diseases, and natural antioxidant. In recent days, microbial fermentation to natural products has been reported to increase feasibly their bioavailability. Accordingly, we performed the fermentation using hot water extract of Poncirus trifoliata by isolated Leuconostocs sp. strain JYK and investigated the change of antioxidative activity. Antioxidative material such as hesperidine naringine, imperatorin, and luteolin was found in hot water extract of Poncirus trifoliata. Total phenolics compounds and flavoniods in hot water extract were $71.2{\pm}4.58GAE(mg/g)$ and $25.1{\pm}4.12$ hesperidine(mg/g), respectively. After fermentation, their values were $89.2{\pm}13.47GAE(mg/g)$ and $31.0{\pm}4.06$ hesperidine(mg/g), respectively. After fermentation, ABTS[2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)] and DPPH(1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical were highly enhanced from $70.2{\pm}9.01$ to $86.2{\pm}3.72$ and $18.7{\pm}1.81$ to $26.6{\pm}4.06$, respectively. Thus microbial fermentation offers a tool to further increase the bioactive potential of Poncirus trifoliata.

Yuza (Citrus junos) had 3 varieties and they had variable physiochemical properties. This study analyzed free sugar, hesperidine, naringin, flavonoid contents and antihypertensive activities according to variety and harvest time of Yuza. Three Yuza varieties, native (C. junos I), improved I (C. junos I + Poncirus trifoliata), improved II (C. junos I + C. junos II) were used. Harvest time could influence biochemical properties of Yuza such as acidity and $^{\circ}brix$. When the Yuza harvested at behind of season, the sugar/acid ratio went up because the acidity was decreased but sugar content was increased. Fructose content was dramatically high at November, Yuza of the season. Total flavonoids was high in pulp parts of improved II and in juice of native one harvested at October. The content of hesperidin and naringin in peels and juices were high in immature fruits fresh-picked at July since then they were decreased steadily and there were no difference according to varieties. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition was powerful at pulp of Yuza in particular native one picked at November.

Studies were carried out to investigate the optimal culture conditions for the production of penicillinase using a strain of Streptomyces sp. isolated from soil, YS-40. Among the carbon and nitrogen sources, glucose and L-asparagine increased the peniciilinase production. The addition of M $n^{＋＋}$, $Ca^{＋＋}$ and L $i^{＋}$ increased the enzyme production, but depressed by F $e^{＋＋＋}$, F $e^{＋＋}$, $Mg^{＋＋}$, Z $n^{＋＋}$, A $g^{＋＋}$, $Ba^{＋＋}$ and S $n^{＋＋}$. L-Leucine slightly increased the enzyme production but L-histidine, L-methionine depressed. Among the vitamins riboflavine, i-inositol, hesperidine, niacin-amide, biotin, folic acid, DL-$\alpha$-lipoic acid increased the enzyme formation. The addition of cephradine, cephalexin, ampicillin, cloxacillin more increased the enzyme formation than that of other$\beta$-lactam antibiotics and antibiotics. Optimal pH and temperature on the enzyme formation was pH 7.0 and 28$^{\circ}C$ respectively Amount of the enzyme production reached at maximum with incubation for 3 days on the optimal condition.

Effects of four citrus flavonoids, hesperidin, naringin and their aglycones on phosphatidate phosphohydrolase(PAP, EC 3.1.3.3) activity were examined using isolated rat microsomes as an enzyme source. In addition, these flavonoids were tested to see whether they exert any influence on the proliferation and growth in cultured human hepatocytes HepG2 cells. Flavonoids at concentration up to $10{-4}M$ had no significant effect on the number of cells and cell proliferation by MTT cell growth assay method, whereas aglycone flavonoids, hesperetin and narigenin, at concentration of $10{-3}M$ significantly inhibited cell proliferation. Hesperetin inhibited PAP activity in a dose-dependent manner starting at concentration of $10{-5}M$. Narigenin at concentration of $10{-2}M$ inhibited PAP activity markedly, while the other flavonoids did not show any significant effect. The present study, therefore, demonstrated that aglycone flavonoids exerted portent effects on PAP activity and on cell proliferation.

Unripen mandarin in Jeju Island is known to contain functional ingredients including various flavonoids. This Study was carried out to identify the components of Unripen mandarin extracts and Secondary metabolism by enzyme treatment on Unripen mandarin. We extracted Unripen mandarin using optimal extraction method and selected the most optimal enzyme among commercial enzymes for a Secondary metabolism. As a result, flavonoid components such as Hesperidine and Narirutin, which are known to be contained a lot in unripen mandarin, could be analyzed. However In this extraction method there were no other flavonoid components such as Nobiletin, Tangeretin known to contain in unripen mandarin. However as a result of secondary metabolism a new functional component called Prunin which was not known to be contained in unripen mandarin, was detected as a secondary metabolic product due to enzyme treatment. Through this, it can be confirmed that it would be possible to develop high-value-added products by enzyme treatment on unripen mandarin.

Cultural conditions for $\alpha$-D-Glucosidase Inhibitor production from Streptomyces sp. YS-221-B isolated from soil arid identified as Streptomyces flauovirens or a subspecies of it were investigated. When the strain was cultured in a flask containing 2% glucose, 0.3% asparagine, 0.0002% riboflavin, 0.05% $K_2$HPO$_4$, 0.1% MgSO$_4$.7$H_2O$, 0.05% NaCl, pH 8.0 at 3$0^{\circ}C$, maximum production of the inhibitor was obtained after 8-9 days of cultivation. Sugar alcohols such as mannitol, i-inositol, erythritol as carbon sources, asparagine and beef extract as nitrogen sources were favorable for inhibitor production. Among vitamins, riboflavin, p-aminobenzoic acid, pyridoxamine and folic acid promoted the production of inhibitor, but depressed by the addition of hesperidine, and also depressed by cobalt, lithium and ferrous salts.

Quality characteristics of Yukwa, Korean traditional rice cookie, added with citrus peel (2, 4 and 6%) were investigated. Yukwa was prepared by adding the water homogenate of the peel and the quality characteristics were evaluated by the expansion rate, texture, color, sensory quality and content of total carotenoid, hesperidine and naringin. The expansion rate (1,517~855%) of Yukwa with higher concentrations of citrus peel powder was lower than that of control product (1,740%) and the brittleness followed the same trend. However, the values were in the range of those of the traditional Korean Yukwa. The color of the control Yukwa (L* value: 63.3~49.9, a* value: 10.6~17.8, b* value: 12.6~56.4) was white, but with citrus peel (2~6%) light yellow~yellow (L* value. 63.3~49.9. a* value: 10.6~17.8, b* values: 12.6~56.4). Carotenoid, hesperidin and naringin contents of Yukwa with the addition of peel powder were 0.18~0.51 mg%, 36.55~101.60 mg% and 24.65~70.81 mg%, respectively. The color and the overall acceptability of yukwa with 4% of citrus peel powder were the best. This combination had some orange flavor, but no differences in both sweet and sour taste.

The study was performed to investigate the changes of components and volatiles in citrus sudachi juice heated at 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and $90^{\circ}C$. Total acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$, pH, organic acids, free amino acids, vitamin C, naringin, hesperidine, neohesperidin and volatiles were analyzed in fresh and heated citrus sudachi juices. The major organic acids were citric, malic and oxalic acids and their total contents were 5.27-5.48%. Citric acid content exceeded 92%, malic and oxalic acids were 3.6 and 3.2% in total orgainc acids. The organic acids decreased as heating temperature increased, but the their decreasing contents were 0.3% of total oraganic acids. Sixteen kinds of free amino acids presented in citrus sudachi juice. Major free amino acids were alanine, threonine, proline, aspargine, aspartic acid, serine, tyrosine, and trytophane and minor free amino acids were arginine, valine, glycine, lisoluecine, leucine and histidine. Free amino acids contents decreased as heating temperature increased. Vitamin C contents also decreased from 21.3 mg% to 17.3 mg% as heating temperature increased. Naringin, hesperidine and neohesperidin also slightly decreased from 304 mg% to 297.0 mg% as heating temperature increased. In the fresh and heated juices, a total of 50 volatiles were separated, of which 31 were identified. Limonene dominated in volatiles, followed by ${\gamma}-terpinene,\;{\alpha}-phellandrene$, myrcene and ${\alpha}-pinene$. ${\alpha}-Thujene$ presented in the fresh jucie but did not present in the heated juice above $50^{\circ}C$. However, ${\alpha}-Terpinolene$, terpinene-1-ol, ${\beta}-terpineol$, $cis-{\beta}-terpineol$, ${\alpha}-muurolene$, bicyclo(3.2.0)hept-6-ene, and mentha-1.4.8-triene did not presented in the fresh jucie but newly formed in the juice heated at $90^{\circ}C$.
