The blended oil was prepared from cottonseed oil and palm olien. The oxidative stability of blended oil after the addition of natural tocopherol and soybean lecithin during heating was investigated and the effects of lecithin were evaluated. The result obtained were as follows: 1. When the concentration of palm olein in blended oil during heating was increased, the oxidative stability was improved. 2. By both addition of natural tocopherol and soybean lecithin during heating in blended oil, induction period was considerably increased and residual ratio of tocopherol was high. 3. The oxidative stability of potato chips prepared from blended oil was higher in the prsence of lecithin than in the absence of it.

The accelerated thermal aging of CSPE(chloro sulfonate polyethylene) of test cables were carried out for the period equal to 10, 20 and 30 years in air at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively. The CSPE cables(TAIHAN electric wire Co. Ltd) which installed in nuclear power plant for three years were used as starting materials. Condition monitering methods of the accelerated thermal aging of CSPE cables were estimated through indenter modulus and OIT(oxidation induction time) of IEC 62582, and those were newly estimated through volume electrical resistivity, ultrasound reflection time, density, FE-SEM(field emission scanning electron microscopy), XPS(x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), EDS(energy dispersive spectroscopy), and WD-XRF(wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescence). A new condition monitoring methods of the accelerated thermal aging of CSPE cables were generally coincident with trend of indenter modulus expect EDS, XPS and XRF. A volume electrical resistivity among new condition monitoring methods of the accelerated thermal aging of CSPE cables is excellent. It is considered that life-time of CSPE cable can be predicted through volume electrical resistivity, if CSPE jacket was aged for period such as more than 20 years.

Effects of bleaching and deodorization on the quality of imported palm and canola oils were evaluated. Imported palm oil and deacidified canola oil were bleached with acid clay, followed by deodorization. Oxidation-related quality was evaluated by determining fatty acid composition by GC, acid and peroxide values, induction period by Rancimat, and off-flavor compounds by GC-MS. Tocopherols and benzo(a)pyrene were analyzed by HPLC. Acid and peroxide values were decreased by bleaching and deodorization, and tocopherol content was decreased to 60-70% (p<0.05). Aldehydes were major off-flavor compound class of imported oils, most of which were removed after deodorization. No significant change was observed in benzo(a)pyrene content (${\sim}0.4{\mu}g/kg$) of both oils by bleaching and deodorization (p>0.05). The oxidation-related quality of palm and canola oils was more improved after industrial bleaching than by deodorization. These results suggest that a careful control of bleaching during domestic refining can improve the quality of palm and canola oils.

Antioxidative activities of the extracts from Schizandra Chinesis Baillon (Omija) with various solvent were compared with some commercial antioxidants. AS (antioxidative index; induction period of oil containing extract/induction period of control oil) of Omija extracts from five kinds of solvents (MeOH, EtOH, BtOH, EA, PE) and other antioxidants were shown as following orders: 0.02% BHT > 0.05% EA > 0.01% MeOH > 0.05% EtOH > 0.1% EA > 0.05% PE > 0.05％ BuOH >> 0.02% alpha-tocopherol. Antioxidative effects of 0.05% EA and 0.05% MeOH extracts during autoxidation (60${\pm}$ 2$^{\circ}C$) were higher than those (If the other extracts but were not greater than that of 0.02% BHT. However, Al of EA and MeOH, EtOH extracts during thermal oxidation (180${\pm}$2$^{\circ}C$) were greater than that of BHT. The antioxidant effect of alpha-tocopherol showed no apparent difference or a prooxidant effect as compared with result of control.

Melatonin, known as a powerful wide-spectrum antioxidant, is consumed as a food supplement in some countries, but its applicability as an antioxidant additive was not yet studied. Therefore, we evaluated the antioxidant activity of melatonin by DPPH, ABTS, FRAP and ORAC assays as well as its ability to inhibit perilla oil oxidation. The activities of four other related indoles were also compared. Melatonin showed the highest antioxidant activity (mmol trolox equivalent per mol indole, mmol TE) in ORAC (2,159) assay, but a low antioxidant activity in DPPH (0.63), ABTS (91), and FRAP (764) assays, whereas serotonin showed an opposite result. Addition of 1% (w/w) melatonin to perilla oil extended the induction period of oxidation up to about 2 times ($2.93{\pm}0.47h$) compared to that of control ($1.43{\pm}0.26h$) in the Rancimat assay, corresponding to almost 50% of the ability of butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT). Tryptamine was the most effective indole that inhibited perilla oil oxidation ($9.53{\pm}1.43h$).

The wound-inducible lipoxygenase obtained from maize is one of the nontraditional lipoxygenases that possess dual positional specificity. In this paper, we provide our results on the determination and comparison of the kinetic constants of the maize lipoxygenase, with or without detergents in the steady state, and characterization of the dependence of the kinetic lag phase or initial burst, on pH, substrate, and detergent in the pre-steady state of the lipoxygenase reaction. The oxidation of linoleic acid showed a typical lag phase in the pre-steady state of the lipoxygenase reaction at pH 7.5 in the presence of 0.25% Tween-20 detergent. The reciprocal correlation between the induction period and the enzyme level indicated that this lag phenomenon was attributable to the slow oxidative activation of Fe (II) to Fe (III) at the active site of the enzyme as observed in other lipoxygenase reactions. Contrary to the lagging phenomenon observed at pH 7.5 in the presence of Tween-20, a unique initial burst was observed at pH 6.2 in the absence of detergents. To our knowledge, the initial burst in the oxidation of linoleic acid at pH 6.2 is the first observation in the lipoxygenase reaction. Kinetic constants (Km and kcat values) were largely dependent on the presence of detergent. An inverse correlation of the initial burst period with enzyme levels and interpretations on kinetic constants suggested that the observed initial burst in the oxidation of linoleic acid could be due to the availability of free fatty acids as substrates for binding with the lipoxygenase enzyme.

Samples of refined soybean oil were irradiated with lights from a 20-watt incandescent tungsten lamp, a 20-watt fluorescent daylight type lamp, a 20-watt low-pressure mercury vapor germicidal lamp, and direct sunlight for an experimental period of 147 days. Some samples were stored in a dark room throughout the period as a control. The peroxide values of all samples were measured every week. The induction period of the samples was arbitrarily taken as the time required for the samples to reach a peroxide value of 15. The induction period of the control was estimated at 198 days. Those of the samples irradiated with the incandescent light, the fluorescent light, the ultraviolet light, and the sunlight were estimated at 196, 119, 52 and 6 days, respectively. The sunlight showed by far the strongest prooxidant activity whereas the incandescent light showed the weakest but distinct prooxidant activity. The small temperature differences observed among the various samples throughout the experimental period did not seem to affect the oxidation rates of the irradiated samples in any significant way.

Oxidative stabilities of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour and white sesame flour, and commercial sesame oil prepared from whole white sesame were compared by measuring oxidation induction periods, peroxide values and electron donating abilities of each oil. Oxidation induction period (12.25 hr) of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was longer than those (4.37 and 9.1 hr, respectively) of sesame oil from white sesame flour and commercial sesame oil. Peroxide values of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour, sesame oil prepared from white sesame flour and commercial sesame oil were 1.3, 18.2 and 1.7 meq/kg oil, respectively. We ascertained that the oxidative stability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was superior than sesame oil from white sesame flour as well as ommercial sesame oil. This was based on the fact that electron donating ability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was 9% higher than that of sesame oil prepared from white sesame flour at the same concentration. The superior oxidative stability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was expected, not only because only it had lignans such as sesamol and sesamolin, but also because of its brownish coloring compounds such as tannin which were not contained in white sesame flour.

In the refrigerated storages of fishery products, the lipid oxidation of the meats had been the major deterioration factor. For the effective utilization of mackerel, Scomber japonicus, and yellow corvenia, Pseudosciaena manchuria, which are major costal fish in Korea, and were studied about oxidative rancidity during the refrigerated storage at $-18^{\circ}C$ and the effect of different temperatures upon the cooked meat. We detected the results followed. 1. The Induction period of refrigerated storages had 20 days for fresh meat and 60 days for cooked meat. 2. Peroxide and TBA value of cooked meats had half amount values In the comparison with those of fresh meats, 3. Values of mackerel had double amount than those of yellow corvenia in peroxide and TBA value as if the different values come from different fish species, 4. The rancidative degree of the different temperatures on the samples had the least amount at $-5^{\circ}C$ among several kinds of storage temperatures.
