Superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities of sixteen kinds of fruits, vegetable juice and commercial concentrates were measured by pyrogallol autoxidation method. The changes in SOD-like activity by heat treatment and the increase in SOD-like activity of apple juice mixed with fruits and vegetables were investigated. SOD-like activity of broccoli juice was 41.7%, the highest value among tested sample. SOD-like activities of strawberry juice, carrot concentrate, kiwi juice, radish juice and apple juice were 30.2, 30.0, 27.6, 26.7, 24.1 and 14.6%, respectively. SOD-like activity was increased generally after heat treatment at $95^{\circ}C$ until 20 min. SOD-like activity of apple juice was increased $20{\sim}35%$ by mixing with 20% of carrot concentrate, kiwi juice, strawberry juice, broccoli juice, respectively and particularly was increased 48% by mixing with 20% of raddish juice.

Fermented beverage using lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi was investigated. Lactic acid bacteria KL 1, KD 6, KL 4 strains from kimchi, or obtained Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, Leuconostoc mesenteroides with and without yeast(Saccharomyces cerevisiae) were inoculated in fruit vegetable juice for single and mixed culture fermentation. During the fermentation by bacterial strain and yeast for 1~3 days at 30oC, various fermentation behaviors were observed. The growth rate of mixed culture of KL 1 and yeast was higher than that of single culture by KL 1 alone during the fermentation. The amount of organic acid produced by the mixed culture fermentation of KL 1 and yeast was 0.82%(3 day) or 0.58%(1 day) and with the final pH of 3.3(3 day) or 4.2(1 day). These mixed culture systems of isolated strains or other bacterial strains had almost similar results of growth rate and acid production. Among several bacterial strains, KL 1 was suitable for the mixed culture fermentation with yeast in terms of desirable fermentation behavior and organoleptical quality. The selected strain, KL 1 was identified as Leuconostoc spp. through the series of tests on carbohydrate fermentation and biochemical characteristics.

This study was conducted to develop Helianthus tuberosus (HT) juice mixed with dried bitter melon juice and assess its hypoglycemic effect in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. HT juice mixed with 5.0% dried bitter melon juice was used in this study. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups (eight rats per group) and drunk each sample for 4 weeks: normal water [normal control (NC) group], STZ+normal water (STZ group), STZ+HT juice (HT group), STZ+HT juice mixed with 2.5% bitter melon juice (HT2.5 group), and STZ+HT juice mixed with 5.0% bitter melon juice (HT5.0 group). HT juice was diluted to 25% in distilled water and supplied to rats. Food intake, body weight gain, and food efficiency ratio were lower in the STZ group than in the NC group. HT, HT2.5, and HT5.0 groups showed higher parameters than the STZ groups. Water intakes were higher in the STZ group than in the NC group. After 3 weeks, HT, HT2.5, and HT5.0 groups showed lower parameters than the STZ group. After 1 week, blood glucose level of the STZ group ($476.7{\pm}22.8mg/dL$) was significantly higher than those of the HT group ($376.3{\pm}25.8mg/dL$), HT2.5 group ($405.2{\pm}35.1mg/dL$), and HT5.0 group ($342.8{\pm}29.7mg/dL$). After 4 weeks, blood glucose level of the STZ group were significantly higher than those of the HT, HT2.5, and HT5.0 group. Serum insulin levels of the HT group ($3.13{\pm}0.32ng/mL$), HT2.5 group ($3.40{\pm}0.23ng/mL$), and HT5.0 group ($3.48{\pm}0.43ng/mL$) were higher than that of the STZ group ($2.72{\pm}0.53ng/mL$). These results indicate that H. tuberosus juice mixed with dried bitter melon juice helps prevent or attenuate progression of diabetes in rats with STZ-induced diabetes.

A preferable mixing ratio of a six-vegetable juice was suggested in this study. The vegetables used for preparation of mixed vegetable juice were carrot(Ct), cabbage(Cg), pear(Pr), cucumber(Cr), celery (Cy) and dongchimi(Di). The characteristics of pH, titratible acidity, reducing sugar, turbidity, solids, color and acceptability were compared to determine the mixing ratio. The vegetables showed a wide ranHe of pH of 3.70-6.01, acidity of 28.92 uv~74.40 nd and reducing sugar of 1.20ft~ 12.69fo. Celery juice showed the higest suspension stability and "b" value and the lowest values in Hunter "L" and "a" values among the 6 vegetable juice. The preferable mixing ratio of two-vegetable juice selected were Ct-Di(1 : 4), Cg-Pr(1 : 3) and Cr-Cy(3 : 1). From the various ratio of the three of biary mixtures of Cg-Pr(1 : 3): Ct-Di(1 : 4): Cr-Sy(3 : 1), two ratio of 5.0 : 2.5 2.5(V-6A) and 6.0 : 2.0 : 2.0(V-6B) were suggested as the most prefered six-vegetable juice. Pear, dongchimi and cucumber were found to be influential on the preference. The pH and titratible acidity of the two juices with different ratios were in the range of 4.92~4.98 and 36.g∼37.4 ml, respectively.

Clarified fruit and vegetable juices (apple, carrot and tangerine) were produced using ultrafiltration and their color change due to the mixing ratio were evaluated. clarification was carried out by passing he supernatant of extracted juice through a filter and also by using a membrane of molecular weight cut-off 10,000 Daltons to obtain the juice ultrafiltrates. The mixing ratio between apple and carrot juices was kept constant at 1:1 while increasing the amount of tangerine juice according to 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50% an stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ prior to the color measurement. Hue angle ({TEX}$h_{ab}${/TEX}) and {TEX}$L^{*}${/TEX}-value increased as the tangerine mixing ratio increased. The color difference indicated by ΔE-value also increased as the amount of tangerine increased indicating that the color of the mixed juice became pale and the changes were slight but distinctive. On the other hand, chroma ({TEX}$C^{*}${/TEX}), {TEX}$La{*}${/TEX}- and {TEX}$b^{*}${/TEX}-values decreased as the tangerine mixing ratio increased indicating that the color of the mixed juice became slightly more grayish and the samples were becoming les yellow. A simple mathematical model to predict each color characteristic is proposed.

The influence of the yuza juice addition on quality of the doenjang was investigated by analyzing their chemical properties. The 80 days pre-fermented(PFD) and non-fermented(NFD) doenjangs used in the present study were mixed with yuza juice designed at different ratio (0, 1, 3, 5% (w/w)), These doenjangs were fermented for 60 days and then analyzed chemical properties, respectively. The moisture content was higher in yuza juice added groups than control group. But Ash, crude lipid and crude protein contents were higher in control than yuza juice added groups. The pH and formol-N were higher in yuza juice added NFD groups however, acidity was reversed. Among the free sugars, glucose contents was the highest. And, free sugars contents were higher in yuza juice added PFD groups than control group. Five kinds organic acids were detected, and succinic acid content was the highest. The organic acid contents were higher in proportion to adding volume of yuza juice, in all groups. The contents of Free amino acids were higher in yuza juice added PFD groups and among these, 1% yuza juice added PFD group(3970.0 mg%) was the highest. Hunter L value was lower by yuza juice added volume and higher in PFD groups. Hunter a and b values were non-significantly difference in PFD and NFD, respectively.

This study was aimed at evaluating a proper mixing ratio of making Beaknyuncho(Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten) Sulgidduk with different types of extraction, a fruit and a stem of Beaknyuncho, and by different making methods. As a result, moisture content was the highest(43.22%) in FP1 and the lowest(38.55%) in SJ60. The low lightness and yellowness are increased with more powder and juice of both fruit and stem added. The mechanical characteristics, hardness, adhesiveness and gumminess were increased as powder and juice were added. And cohesiveness and springiness were decreased. The identification test showed that a sample containing stem juice was the most preferable for taste, chewiness, moistness and after-taste. The preference test showed that a sample containing stem juice was the most preferable for color, texture and overall quality and a sample containing stem powder was preferable for flavor and taste. Both SJ60 mixed with 60% Beaknyuncho stem juice and FP3 mixed with 3% fruit powder proved to be the most desirable in both sensory evaluation and texture characteristics.

Physicochemical properties and microbiological quality chanties were investigated on mixed fruit and vegetable juices (apple, carrot and cucumber) stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ without pasteurization(NT), with light piasteurization (LP; 66$^{\circ}C$, 10 sec) and with full pasteurization(FP; 90$^{\circ}C$, 60 sec). Effects of ultrafiltration (UF) on the changes during storage were also examined. pH, viscosity, a-value and b-value remained relatively constant and all samples revealed Newtonian characterisitics. Total acidity and turbidity tended to increase slightly; however, total vitamin C content and L-value slowly decreased during storage up to about 2 months. During the first 4 weeks storage, soluble solids content slowly increased and then decreased. Mold and Yeast and Bacteria were not detected in LP, UP and UF treated samples during storage studied; however, E. coli were detected after 24 days storage. No distinctive storage effects were found among samples prepared; however, ultrafiltration had a considerable effect on the color and soluble solids content of mixed fruit and vegetable juice.

Omeprazole is usually administered as encapsulated enteric-coated granules and enteric-coated tablets because of its acid-labile nature. For children and patients who can not swallow, it can be mixed with water or other liquid after a capsule is opened or a tablet is crushed. This study was performed to compare omeprazole liquid formulations of tablet and capsule Omeprazole 20 mg capsule containing enteric coated granules was opened and 20 mg entric-coated tablet was ground to be mixed with sodium bicarbonate solution, orange juice or water. Each liquid formulation was poured into dissolution tester, mixed with first solution (artificial gastric juice; pH 1.2) for two hours, then with second solution (artifical enteric juice; pH 6.8) for thirty minutes. pH was measured periodically for two and half hours. Samples were drawn periodically, mixed with lansoprazole as an internal standard, and injected to HPLC. As results, pH of sodium bicarbonate solution of omeprazole was significantly higher than that of orange juice or water in first solution (6.2-7.4 vs. 1.2, p<0.005). At 150 min, concentrations of omeprazole in three diluents with granules and in sodium bicarbonate solution of tablet powder sustained significantly higher than in other solution of tablet powder (p<0.001). In conclusion, enteric-coated granules from capsule with three diluents and powder from tablet in sodium bicarbonate solution was stable during dissolution test, which would be appropriate and recommended for patient who can not swallow solid preparations.
