  • Utilities of kiwi fruit powder prepared from post-mature kiwi fruit in bakery products such as bread and cookie were investigated. The characteristics of bread and cookie with different amounts of kiwi fruit powder were examined through physical measurement (color specific volume, crumb firmness, spread ratio, and extensibility) and seneory evaluation. In baking performance of frozen dough with kiwi fruit powder, $L^{*}$, $a^{*}$, and $b^{*}$ values of crust and specific volume gradually decreased as the concentration of kiwi fruit powder increased. Crumb firmness had significant difference compared to bread without kiwi fruit powder, and sensory characteristics of breads with kiwi fruit powder were more poor than bread without kiwi fruit powder. In a cookie with kiwi fruit powder although specific volume was not significantly different, the spread ratio of cookie and cookie toughness significantly decreased; furthermore, cookie extensibility significantly increased as an amount of kiwi fruit powder increased. Hardness and moistureness of cookies in sensory evaluation had a similar tendency as toughness and extensibility of cookies. Therefore, post-mature kiwi fruit could be utilized to improve the cookie qualities.ies.s.

  • The kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa) is well known to contain anti-oxidants. In this study, we investigated the anti-oxidant effects of kiwi extract on carbon tetrachloride ($CCl_4$) induced liver injury in BALB/c mice. The radical scavenging effect of 80% methanol extract of Halla-Gold kiwi was observed. For the animal study, mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal group, $CCl_4$-induced model group, kiwi extract administered group, and silymarin treated group. The kiwi extract was provided daily for 10 days. At the 24 h after last administration, $CCl_4$ was injected. The kiwi extract showed strong inhibitory effect of DPPH radicals and superoxide scavenging. In animal study, administration of $CCl_4$ resulted in significantly elevated plasma levels of ALT and AST but they decreased in kiwi-extract pretreated group. Anti-oxidant enzymes such as GSH-px and GSH-rd were restored in the kiwi extract treatment group. Histopathological degeneration was also prevented in the kiwi extract treated group compared with of the control group, which exhibited $CCl_4$-induced hepatotoxicity. On the basis of the obtained results, it can be concluded that kiwi extract showed protective effects, not only as anti-oxidant effects, but also in the protection of hepatotoxicity in $CCl_4$-intoxicated mice.

  • The purpose of this study, as a part of developing a new french dressing, was to present the best conditions to make improved kiwi dressing, suitable for the tastes of modern people, the processing and cooking methods of different ratios of green kiwi and gold kiwi have been sought to develop a new type of dressing, then its antioxidant have been defined, and used for producing kiwi dressing. Each 150g of different Kiwi purees, made based on the most preferable combinations from the pre-test were used for kiwi dressing, and thereafter its quality characteristics, and physical properties were investigated, as well as a sensory test was conducted. The highest viscosity of kiwi dressing was test sample GD2, and in general that of combining both types of kiwis were higher than that of either single kiwi. The sugar content was decreased by changing the Gold kiwi portion(p<0.05). The chromaticity in general increased with increases in the Gold kiwi portion, and a-value(brightness) and b-value(redness) of sample GD1 were the highest by -2.75 and 17.50(p<0.05). From the acceptability test, the highest overall acceptability was the dressing sample combining Gold kiwi and Green kiwi at a ratio of 1:1. Based on the study results, it is expected that the dressing, made of kiwi puree, mixing Green kiwi and Gold kiwi by 1:1 ratio, and adding 130g of edible oil, 50g of onion, 40g of sugar, and 5g of salt, would improve the quality and overall acceptability of the dressing.

  • The present study evaluated the total phenolic and flavonoid contents as well as total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of three cultivars of Actinidia arguta Planch. kiwi berries; cv. Mansoo (Mansoo), cv. Chiak (Chiak), and cv. Haeyeon (Haeyeon). In addition, the anti-inflammatory effects of the three cultivars of kiwi berries were investigated using a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cell line. Mansoo had the highest total phenolic content and TAC among the three cultivars, whereas Chiak had the highest total flavonoid content. The total antioxidant capacities of the kiwi berry extracts were more strongly correlated with total phenolic content than with total flavonoid content. The kiwi berry extracts suppressed the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α, from LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. The release of nitrite, an indirect indicator of nitric oxide, was also ameliorated by pre-treatment with the kiwi berry extracts in a dose-dependent manner. Cellular-based measurements of antioxidant capacity exhibited that the kiwi berry extracts had cellular antioxidant capacities. Such cellular antioxidant effects are possibly attributed to their direct antioxidant capacity or to the inhibition of reactive oxygen species generation via anti-inflammatory effects. Our findings suggest that kiwi berries are potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents.
