The antioxidant activities of Korean Red Ginseng Extract(RGE) and ${\alpha}-tocopherol$, as reference compound, were tested with HPLC and fluorometry which measure the MDA after reacting an aqueous 1% linoleic acid buffer solution, and LDL(1 mg protein/ml) buffer solution with $H_2O_2{\;}and{\;}FeCl_2$. The generation of conjugated-diene in LDL(0.25 mg protein/ml) was also measured by spectrometry. MDA determination showed the antioxidant effect on linoleic acid oxidation with oxidation inhibition ratio of 71.8% and 76.1%, respectively, by addition of 1000 ppm RGE and 100 ppm ${\alpha}-tocopherol$. LDL(1 mg protein/ml) oxidation was inhibited by 25.2% and 21.2%, respectively, by addition of 200 ppm REG and 100 ppm ${\alpha}-tocopherol$. The generation of conjugated diene in LDL(0.25 mg protein/ml) was also inhibited by 44.2%, by addition of 50 ppm RGE.

Extracts of Panax ginseng root significantly induced tolerance of Fusarium oxysporum to heavy metal, mecury, as the fungal mycelial growth was less inhibited by mercury chloride on potato dextrose medium(PDA) amended with ginseng root than on the PDA with no ginseng amendment. The most favorable concentration of ginseng root powder in detoxification of mercury chloride was 1%. The induced tolerance of F. oxysporum to mercury chloride appeared to be rather due to absorption of ginseng components, and was not related to stimulation of mycelial growth of the fungus per so by ginseng treatment. Ginseng components responsible for inducing tolerance of the fungus to mercury were involved in the water fraction of the ginseng root extract, although the water fraction had no effect on enhancement of the mycelial growth on the medium without mercury chloride. The hexane fraction of ginseng root extract, by which the mycelial growth was stimulated, was not related to the inducement of the tolerance to mercury chloride. However, more tolerance to mercury chloride was noted in PDA with both the water and hexane fractions combined than with either of the two fractions. Six-year-old ginseng roots were more effective in detoxification of mercury chloride than 4-year-old ginsng roots, and American ginseng (P quinquifolium) had no or little effect on inducing tolerance of the fungus to mercury chloride. This method may be used to screen other natural materials for test in the detoxification of mercury chloride.

The antigenicity of the aqueous extract of red ginseng (ARG) was evaluated using the following assay procedures : 1. active systemic anaphylaxis (ASA) in guinea pigs, 2 active cutaneous anaphylaxis (ACA) in guinea pigs, 3 passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) in guinea pigs, 2.active cutaneous anaphylaxis (ACA) in guinea pigs, 3. passive cutanepous anaphylaxis (PCA) in guina pigs with serum for guina pigs sensitized with ARG and 4. passive hemagglutination (PHA) with serum from guinea pigs sensitized with ARG. 1. ASA : No anaphylaxis reaction was observed in any of the sensitized guinea pigs by elictitation with ARG. 2. ACA : No skin reaction was observed in sensitized guinea pigs after intrademal injection of ARG. 3. PCA in guinea pigs : PCA titer of sera from all the sensitized animals was less than 10 in eliciation with ARG. 4. PHA reaction : When eythrocytes coated with challenge antigen were added to sensitized sera, the hemagglutination titer was less than 1. These results suggest that ARG has no antigenicity under the conditions used. And the dose levels of ARG employed in the present experiment were confirmed not to suppress immune reactions.

In order to improve the qualities of red ginseng extract and decrease precipitate formation in ginseng drink, red ginseng extract were hydrolyzed with ${\alpha}$-Amylase and characteristics of the hydrolyzed ginseng extract were investigated. 1.08% of isomaltose were produced and glucose content was increased from 2.83% to 11.03% in the hydrolyzed red ginseng extract. Total ginsenoside content of the hydrolyzed ginseng extract were decreased from 1,661 mg/100g extract to 1,389 mg/100g extract. The hydrolyzed ginseng extract enhanced the growth of Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus helveticus. Bitterness and astringency of the hydrolyzed ginseng extract were lower than those of the ginseng extract Precipitate formations in ginseng drink prepared with the hydrolyzed ginseng extract were significantly reduced in the storage conditions of 40$^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks compared to those of control.

The natural ingredient has been utilized variety of the food and medicine. The aromatherapy well known prevent disease and healthy promotion using the essential oil derived extracted plants. In this work, natural ingredient include herb granulated for application of tobacco filter. That used by granulation using fluidized bed granulator(top-spray, bottom-spray and tangential-spray) and wet granule method. According to ingredient can used granulating method selectivity. So, we used fluid-bed granulator and wet granule method. Grapefruit extract coated sugar particle using the bottom-spray method and red ginseng granule granulated red ginseng powder using the tangential-spray method in a fluidized bed. Then, these granules applied the tobacco filter after due consideration add amount and operation efficiency. As a result, wet granule was loaded dual filter because that similarity carbon granule. And it was fitted in added 3mg/mm, per tip in the tobacco end part. Another type, fuidized bed granules was filled cavity filter because it has high hardness, sphere shape.

This study was conducted to elucidate the effects of light intensity using polyethylene (p.E) net shading on the specific gravity, red ginseng quality, sugar and saponin contents of ginseng root. The specific gravity significantly increased in the ginseng roots grown under the P.E net shading as compared with that of common straw shading. The red ginseng quality under the P.E net shading was improved in order of 10, 5, 15, 20, 30% of light intensity and the inside cavity and inside white part decreased remarkably as compared with those of common straw shading. The ginseng roots grown under the P.E net shading at 10% and 15% light intensity showed a significant increase in the total sugar content but a significant decrease in the reducing sugar content at 15% light intensity as compared with those of common straw shading. The amount of total saponin of ginseng roots was increased under the P.E net shading at high light intensity as compared with that of common straw shading and the ginseng roots grown under the P.E net shading at 10% light intensity showed an increase in the diol group saponin but the ratio of PT/PD was decreased. Extract contents of ginseng root under the P.E net shading was higher than those of common straw shading and the roots grown under the P.E net shading at 15% and 20% light intensity resulted in a remarkable increase in extract contents.
