Heated onion juice was partitioned using the solvents hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and butanol. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the strongest scavenging effect on the ABTS radical. The antioxidant activities of the ethyl acetate fraction from raw and heated onion (120, 130, and $140^{\circ}C$) were evaluated using radical scavenging assays. Radical and nitrite scavenging activities were higher in heated onion than raw onion, and the higher the temperature of heat treatment, the greater the radical and nitrite scavenging activities. Heated onion ($140^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) was more effective than raw onion, having higher DPPH radical scavenging (5.7-fold), hydroxyl radical scavenging (6.4-fold), superoxide radical scavenging (2.3-fold), hydrogen peroxide scavenging (11.8-fold), and nitrite scavenging (4.3-fold) activities. Onion increased its physiologically active materials after heating, and in this regard, heated onion can be used as biological material for the manufacture of health foods and supplements.

26종의 향신료와 이들 향신료를 사용하여 제조하는 instant curry 제품의 SOD 유사활성을 측정한 결과 모든 시료에서 SOD 유사활성이 나타났으며 그 중 clove가 $232,143{\pm}19.989\;unit/g$로 가장 높았고, rosemary, cassia, tarragon, allspice, oregano, bay leaves, basil, marjoram, thyme, star anise등에서도 g당 $10^5\;unit$ 이상이었다 시판되는 10종의 instant curry제품을 사용하여 $100^{\circ}C$에서 10분간 가열 후 SOD 유사활성을 측정한 결과 g당 $400{\sim}700$ units 정도였다. Nitrite 분해능을 확인한 결과 26종 향신료의 상온수 추출물($(25^{\circ}C)$과 열수 추출물$(100^{\circ}C)$ 그리고, instant curry 10종의 열수 추출물에서 모두 nitrite 분해능을 확인할 수 있었다. pH 1.2에서 상온수 추출물의 경우 clove가 $(97.58{\pm}0.88%)$로 가장 높은 분해율을 나타냈으며 cassia, bay leaves, allspice, oregano, staranise, rosemary, tarragan의 경우도 90% 이상의 분해율을 보여주었다. 그리고 열수 추출물의 경우에도 상온수 추출물과 거의 유사한 nitrite 분해율을 나타내었다. Instant curry의 원료로 사용되는 pure curry의 경우 숙성기간(0주${\sim}$12주)에 따른 nitrite 분해능을 측정한 결과 pH 1.2에서 $50{\sim}60%$ 정도였으며 숙성기간 중 변화가 없는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 instant curry 제품을 사용하여 pH 1.2 조건하에서 nitrite 분해능을 측정한 결과 제품별 차이는 있었으나 12${\sim}$28% 정도의 분해능을 가지고 있었다.

This study investigated the antioxidant and synergistic effects and nitrite scavenging ability of some phenolic compounds(catechin, rutin, quercetin and naringin), The electron donating abilities of naringin, quercetin, rutin and catechin were 6.7%, 92.8%, 87.6% and 92.21%, respectively, The antioxidant activities in O/W emulsion substrates were in order of rutin > quercetin > catechin > naringin. The antioxidant effect of rutin was stranger than that of BHT or ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. ${\alpha}$-tocopherol showed synergistic effect with catechin and quercetin, but ascorbic acid not showed effect. The nitrite scavenging abilities of catechin, quercetin, rutin and naringin were 99.9%, 98.6%, 25.5% and 0.2%, respectively. The nitrite scavenging abilities of quercetin and actechin were very potent as compared with those of BHT and ascorbic acid.

This study was carried out to observe the antioxidative activity, fibrinolytic activity, nitrite savenging ability and adenosine content of three medicinal mushrooms. Among water and ethanol extract of each mushroom, water extract of Inonotus obliquus (Czech) showed the highest antioxidative activity $(57.1{\mu}g/ml)$, nitrite scavenging ability (52.04%), fibrinolytic activity (86.8%) and adenosin content $(94.3{\mu}g/g)$, whereas nitrite scavenging ability of ethanol extract of Phellinus linteus showed higher than that of water extract. Apart from the above statements, water was effective than ethanol as extracting solvent in general. These results suggest that Inonotus obliquus (Czech) showed higher activities such as antioxidative activity, nitrite scavenging ability, fibrinolytic activity and adenosin content and water was effective as solvent except for nitrite scavenging ability.

This study was carried out in order to determine the biological activities such as antioxidant activities in nine cultivars of Momordica charantia L. (Korea, China, Japan and Philippine native cultivars). Their antioxidant activities were measured using DPPH free radical scavenging, ABTS cation radical scavenging, and Nitrite scavenging ability. The highest total polyphenol content (16.82 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$) measured in the native Korea cultivar, and this value was 4.0 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ higher than that of the 'Verde Beuhas' cultivar (12.82 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$). The 'Peacock' cultivar had the highest total flavonoid amount which was 4.38 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The free radical scavenging activity using DPPH method was the highest in the native China cultivar ($RC_{50}$ = 102.6 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$). ABTS cation radical scavenging activity according to cultivars was significantly higher in 'Peacock'. Nitrite scavenging ability showed the most remarkable effect at the pH 1.2, exhibited to 81.5${\sim}$86.9% by addition of ethanol extract 1${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ from Momordica charantia L. These results suggest that Momordica charantia L. had the potent biological activities, and that their activities exhibited differently depending on cultivars.

This study compared the total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities of two seaweed cultivars, Undaria pinnatifida (UP) and Capsosiphon fulvescens (CF), subjected to different drying methods. UP and CF were dried under two different conditions: vacuum drying (VD) at $20^{\circ}C$ and hot-air drying (HD) at $60^{\circ}C$. After drying, the total phenolic content, DPPH, and nitrite scavenging activities of the water extracts were determined. Total phenolic contents were 101.94 mg/100 g for UP and 171.35 mg/100 g for CF upon VD-20, and these values were significantly decreased to 67.59 mg/100 g for UP and 141.48 mg/100 g for CF upon HD-60. UP upon VD-20 and HD-60 had 46.17% and 35.20% DPPH radical scavenging activity, whereas CF upon VD-20 and HD-60 scavenged 57.73% and 35.22%, respectively. UP upon VD-20 and HD-60 had 40.36% and 40.01% nitrite scavenging activity at pH 1.2, whereas CF upon VD-20 and HD-60 scavenged 72.35% and 55.24%, respectively. Nitrite scavenging activities of UP and CF were reduced at pH 3.0.

This study was conducted to clarify the antimicrobial effect, antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibitory activities of the biological composition having the Phytolacca americana, and to enhance the natural materials utilization of foods and cosmetics. The antimicrobial activities of the different parts of P. americana were evaluated using the agar diffusion test. The antimicrobial activity of P. americana was relatively high in Malassezia furfur known as a skin fungi and Vibrio parahaemolyticus compared to Escherichia coli and Staphy-lococcus epidermidis. However, the antimicrobial activity in Vibrio parahaemolyticus did not show at all parts of P. americana. Both the DPPH radical scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity have been increased with the higher concentration of methanol extract. In particular, leaf extract of P. americana exhibited the highest activity both ABTS radical scavenging activity and DPPH radical scavenging activity. The nitrite scavenging activity was decreased when the pH was changed from pH 1.2 to pH 6.0. The highest nitrite scavenging activity was exhibited from the methanol extract of fruit, followed by root, stem, and leaf at pH 1.2. However, the nitrite scavenging activity at pH of 6.0 was not almost detected. All plant parts of P. americana showed tyrosinase inhibitory activity. The highest activity was found in the stem, and followed by root, leaf, and fruit in order. These tyrosinase inhibitory activity was progressively increased in a concentration-dependent manner. In this experiment on the methanol extracts of different organ from P. americana, we confirmed that the extract of P. americana showed potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Taken together, we conjectured that the P. americana had the potent biological activities, therefore this plant having various functional components could be a good material for development into source of natural food additives and cosmetics.

The objectives of this study were to investigate biological activities such as nitrite scavenging effect of water and methanol fractions obtained from each green juice(Angelica keiskei, kale, carrot) under different pH conditions, and antioxidant vitamin contents in green juice made of green yellow vegetables. The result shows that nitrite scavenging effect of each green juice was 14.0~91.2% in model system. The methanol fraction provided higher effect than the water fraction. The nitrite degradation was the highest at pH 1.2. Nitrite scavenging effect of methanol fraction obtained from kale juice was 91.2% at pH 1.2 which was the highest among tested samples in this experiments. Consequently, extracts of kale juice were shown to provide the greatest functional properties among the vegetables tested. Contents of vitamine E and C in the extracts of kale were higher than the others.
