This study was carried out to investigate the properties of woodceramics made from thinned logs of Cryptomeria japonica. In order to find the effect of steam injection time on the woodceramics fabricated with boards, boards were made with the non-steamed treatment and steamed treatment 1, 5, 10 min. at $250^{\circ}C$. The percentage of weight loss was proportional to the increased density of board The reducing rate of length and thickness, however, decreased with increasing density of board. The rate of weight loss, length and thickness reduction in non-steamed board were slightly higher than those of steamed board. When the resin impregnation rate increased, the bending strength and compressive strength of woodceramics had a tendency to increase. The bending strength and compressive strength of woodceramics in non-steamed board was higher than those of steamed board. But there was little difference between dimensional and strength properties of woodceramics and steam injection time of board.

This study compared the contents of ginsenosides depending on steaming conditions of red ginsengs to provide basic information for developing functional foods using red ginsengs. The red ginseng steamed eight times at $98^{\circ}C$ ranked atop the amounts of prosapogenins ever detected in red ginsengs (ginsenoside $Rg_2$, $Rg_3$, $Rg_5$, $Rg_6$, $Rh_1$, $Rh_4$, $Rk_1$, $Rk_3$, $F_1$, $F_4$, 1.15%) among red ginsengs steamed more than twice. When steamed eight times at $98^{\circ}C$, 2.7 times as much prosapogenins such as ginsenosides $Rg_2$, $Rg_3$, $Rg_5$, $Rg_6$, $Rh_1$, $Rh_4$, $Rk_1$, $Rk_3$, $F_1$, and $F_4$ as those steamed just once at $98^{\circ}C$ was collected. In addition, the red ginsengs steamed eight times at $98^{\circ}C$ contained more amounting ginsenoside $Rg_3$ (0.28%) than that in the red ginseng steamed several times at random. Accordingly, it is recommendable that red ginsengs steamed 8 times, which proved to be the optimal steaming condition, be used rather than those steamed 9 times (black ginsengs), in order to develop red ginseng products of high prosapogenin concentration and high functions.

Background: The root and rhizome are historically and officially utilized medicinal parts of Panax notoginseng (PN) (Burk.) F. H. Chen, which in raw and steamed forms are used differently in practice. Methods: To investigate the differences in chemical composition and bioactivities of PN root and rhizome between raw and steamed forms, high-performance liquid chromatography analyses and pharmacologic effects evaluated by tests of anticoagulation, antioxidation, hemostasis, antiinflammation, and hematopoiesis were combined. Results: With the duration of steaming time, the contents of ginsenosides $Rg_1$, Re, $Rb_1$, Rd, and notoginsenoside $R_1$ in PN were decreased, while those of ginsenosides $Rh_1$, $20(S)-Rg_3$, $20(R)-Rg_3$, $Rh_4$, and $Rk_3$ were increased gradually. Raw PN samples steamed for 6 h at $120^{\circ}C$ with stable levels of most constituents were used for the subsequent study of bioeffects. Raw PN showed better hemostasis, anticoagulation, and antiinflammation effects, while steamed PN exhibited stronger antioxidation and hematopoiesis activities. For different parts of PN, contents of saponins in PN rhizome were generally higher than those in the root, which could be related to the stronger bioactivities of rhizome compared with the same form of PN root. Conclusion: This study provides basic information about the chemical and bioactive comparison of PN root and rhizome in both raw and steamed forms, indicating that the change of saponins may have a key role in different properties of raw and steamed PN.

Objectives : Gastrodiae Rhizoma extract (GE) is possess the various bioactive compounds such as gastrodin, vanilyl alcool and p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol. Various processing methods such as steaming have been widely applied to ease ingestion and enhance the therapeutic effects of plant materials including GE in East-Asia area. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dermal bioactive properties of GE. Methods : First, total phenol, total flavonoid, gastrodin and ergothionein contents of GE were measured. In order to evaluate the dermal bioactive properties of steamed GE compared with not-steamed GE, tyrosinase, collagenase and elastase inhibitory activity were tested. Furthermore, the anti-oxidant activity of GE assessed based on DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assay. Results : In results, total phenol and total flavonoid contents were increased when 9 times steamed compared to not-steamed GE. Also, GE increased gastrodin contents, in proportion to the number of steaming times and ergothioneine content was abolished in the steaming state. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of GE increased by steaming, but the ABTS radical scavenging activity was not related to the steaming process. In addition, the tyrosinase inhibitory activity was increased as the number of steaming times of GE increased. Collagenase was most inhibited by 4 times steamed GE, and elastase was inhibited by 8 times steamed GE. Conclusion : In conclusion, these results suggest that steamed GE extract has the potential as a cosmetic material which possess anti-oxidant and whitening activities than not steamed GE.

Experiments were conducted to assess the quality properties of steamed fish paste by addition level, along with a fish meat replacement(dried bovine plasma). The moisture, crude protein, crude fat and ash contents evidenced partially significant difference among the controls, DBP1, DBP2 and DBP3 groups(p<0.05). The pH values of the steamed samples were higher than those of the non-steamed samples, and when the content of the dried bovine plasma as meat replacement agent was increased, the pH was increased. The water holding capacity of the steamed fish past samples, along with the replacement levels were significantly higher than in the samples without the meat replacer(p<0.05). The range of cooking loss was $5.19{\sim}5.38%$. Structural weakening of the boiled samples was significantly higher than that observed in the fried sample. Hardness and chewiness were increased slightly by the addition of bovine plasma, but gel strength evidenced a pattern of decreased in DBP1, DBP2 and DBP3 groups. The result of our sensory evaluation on taste, texture, color and overall acceptance evidenced significant differences among the controls, DBP1, DBP2 and DBP3 groups, and the sensory score of color was the highest.
