The study investigated the quality of pound cake added with various concentrations of perilla leaves (Perilla frutescens var. japonica HARA) powder. Pound cake were prepared by addition of 0, 5, 10 and 15% powder to the flour of basic formulation. The pH of the batter and cake decreased with increasing perilla leaves powder concentration. The baking loss rate of the pound cake tended to increase by 7.13~7.42%. The height of pound cake added with perilla leaves powder decreased with increasing powder concentration. The lightness, redness, and yellowness values were significantly decreased with increases in perilla leaves powder except for redness of pound cake crumb. The pound cakes containing 5% perilla leaves powder had acceptable sensory evaluation, such as flavor, taste, moistureness, and overall preference. The hardness and gumminess tended to increase, while springiness and cohesiveness decreased with increases in perilla leaves powder. The retrogradation degree of pound cake prepared with perilla leaves powder for 7 days at $25^{\circ}C$ was higher than the control but there were no significant differences. For the antioxidative activity measured by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, pound cake added with 10% and 15% added perilla leaves powder showed high antioxidant activities. The results exhibited that adding the perilla leaves powder into the pound cake increased antioxidant activity with the highest quality improvement obtained by incorporating 5% (w/w) of perilla leaves powder into the pound cake formula.

Perilla, Perilla frutescens. (L.) Britton, is a traditional oil seed crops grown in Korea. The seeds and seed oil is used for edible and some industrial sectors. The seeds of perilla contains 35-54% of a drying oil which is similar to the linseed oil. The fatty acids of seed oil is composed with linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and oleic acid. The majority of fatty acids of the oil is $\alpha$-linolenic acid proportioned 51-71% of the oil. This high linolenic acid makes it unstable of the oil and owing to the fast oxidation. Therefore, the plant breeders are challenges to develope a new varieties with low linolenic acid for edlible oil and high linolenic acid for industrial uses. Perilla foliage is also used as a potherb. The green leaves contains a special flavor, perilla aldehyde, and some abundant minerals and vitamins. The vitamin C and $\beta$-carotene is more available than lettuce and crown-daisy of which used for similar potherb and vegetables in traditional Korean food table. The authors are reviewed and discussed on the current status and prospects of the quality evaluations and researches in perilla seeds and leaves to provide and refers the condensed informations on their quality.

The oxidative stabilities of perilla oil increased as roasting temperature and time increased. Induction period of the perilla oil from unroasted perilla seed was 3.9 days, but that of the oil from perilla seed roasted at $210^{\circ}C$ for 30 min was 55 days. The electron donating ability(EDA) on DPPH by perilla oils increased as the roasting temperature and time increased. EDA of the unroasted perilla oil was 24% but that of the perilla oil roasted at $210^{\circ}C$ for 30 min was 64%. These results indicated that the reducing compounds were formed during the roasting process. The fluorescence intensity in perilla oil increased as the roasting temperature and time were increased. This result indicated that Maillard reaction has occurred during the roasting process and the reaction products seemed to provide stability to perilla oil.

The physical characteristics of the major varieties of perilla were analyzed to use as basic data for the design of a high-quality, high-efficiency perilla cleaner and stone separator. Because the size, thousand-grain weight, angle of repose, angle of friction, bulk density and terminal velocity of perilla have significant differences according to the perilla variety, the different of characteristics by variety should be considered for performance improvement of a perilla cleaner and stone separator. Therefore the cleaner and stone separator using a sieve could be improved by the application of a detachable sieve or by using equipment such as a 2 - 3 stage sieve and regulating the slope. Moreover, because differences in the terminal velocity occur due to the differences in the size and thousand-grain weight according to the perilla variety, a blower with an adjustable fan speed was considered for the design of the improved cleaner. Additionally, it was shown that the length of perilla has the greatest correlation based on a comparison of the coefficients of the other characteristics. Accordingly, the length of perilla could be used as a major factor for the fine adjustment and parts replacement of the device. These results can be used as basic data for a high-quality, high-efficiency perilla cleaner and stone separator. In the future, the development of the machine and follow-up studies based on the basic data are needed to determine the optimized operating conditions and mechanism of action.

This study was designed to obseve the effect of defatted perilla as a dietary fiber on lipid components of serum feces and liver in rats. Serum cholesterol and triglyceride were signfican-ly decreased in defatty perilla added groups. total lipid cholesterol and triglyceride of feces were significantly increased in defatted perilla added groups. Liver phospholipid content was higher in the defatted perilla added groups. The other lipid components of the liver were not affected by the defatted perilla administration. These results suggest the possibitlity that defatted perilla have a reducing effect of serum cholesterol and triglyceride through the incre-ment of feacal excretion of lipid component and phospholipid in liver.

Serve outbreaks of anthracnose were observed on perilla plants grown in greenhouses and open fields in several locations in Korea during the disease survey from 1997 to 2000. A total of 53 isolates of Colletotrichum spp. and Glomerella sp. was obtained from diseased perilla plants and identified based on their morphological and cultural characteristics. Forty isolates were identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, three isolates as C. coccodes, five isolates as C. dematium, and the other five isolates as Glomerella cingulata, the teleomorph of C. gloeosporioides. All isolates of C. gloeosporioides tested by artificial inoculation were strongly virulent on perilla plants, but isolates of the other species were weakly or not virulent. Anthracnose symptoms induced on the perilla plants by artificial inoculation with the isolates of C. gloeosporioides were similar to those observed in the fields. This study revealed that C. gloeosporioides is the main causal fungus of perilla anthracnose.
