  • Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the family Urticaceae. It was used in folk remedies for diuretic or anti-pyretic purposes and as an hepatoprotective, anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammation agent. In this study, we investigated the composition of free sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, organic acids, and total polyphenol contents in parts of ramie (root, stem, and leaf) and different harvest areas (10 areas). Overall, free sugars were found as sucrose, glucose, fructose, and galactose at concentrations ranging from 24.5 to 1173.8 mg/g. Amino acids lysine, threonine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, and histidine were detected at concentrations of 33.8 to 3735.3 mg/g. Major fatty acids were linoleic acid, palmitic acid, and linolenic acid at concentrations of 7.3 to 364.4 mg/g. In organic acids, the concentration of malic acid was highest of all with 672.2 mg/g. The content of free sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, organic acids, and total polyphenol was higher in leaves than in roots and stems. In contrast, the total polyphenol content was higher in roots with 33.7 - 219.4 mg/g than in leaves or in stems. As seen in collecting region, the contents of free sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, organic acids, and total polyphenol of Bn-33, 39, 55, 65, and 90 were higher than other samples. Chemical compositions of different parts of ramie are important factors to consider in manufacturing functional foods. The results of this study provide fundamental information on the chemical compositions of ramie parts and would help develop new functional foods from ramie leaves or the whole plant.

  • The total polyphenol contents and antioxidative activities of water and ethanol extracts from Synurus excelsus and Synurus palmatopinnatifidus var. palmatopinnatifidus were determined. Total polyphenol contents of ESE and ESP were 195.7 and 216.2 mg/g, and were higher than WSE (74.7 mg/g) and WSP (77.4 mg/g). The total flavonoid contents were also higher in ESE (176.6 mg/g) and ESP (148.8 mg/g) than WSE and WSP. DPPH radical scavenging activities of ESE and ESP (73.1 and 73.4%) were higher than WSE and WSP as like total polyphenol and flavonoid contents. Although the DPPH radical scavenging activities of the extracts were proportional to total polyphenol contents, there are no differences between water extracts and ethanol extracts of Synurus excelsus and Synurus palmatopinnatifidus on ABTS radical scavenging activities. Moreover, all the solvent extracts (ESE, ESP, WSE and WSP) had no SOD-like activity. These results suggest that consideration for adoption of method is necessary to evaluate antioxidative activity of extracts from plants including vegetables.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the chemical component of Camellia japonica L. according to picking time. Leaves of Camellia japonica L. were picked in April and May,2003. Free sugars (fructose, glucose and sucrose) and organic acids (citric acid, tartaric acid, succinic acid, acetic acid) were present in the Camellia japonica L. leaf. The contents of total free sugars and organic acids increased as picking time was delayed. The major components of free amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid and histidine, and those of total amino acids were histidine and alanine. The contents of total free amino acids and total amino acids were decreased as picking time was delayed, while the ratio of essential amino acids to the total amino acids increased. The amount of minerals (P, Ca, K, Na and Fe), chlorophyll and total polyphenol increased as picking time was delayed.

  • The purpose of this paper is to describe the differences in mineral, ascorbic acid, and total polyphenol content, and also the relationship between polyphenol content and antioxidant activity(DPPH radical scavenging, FTC, and TBA methods) in three sizes of Cudrania tricuspidata leaves. For the mineral contents of the leaves, Ca was highest(17.26 mg/g.d.w.), followed by K(15.53 mg), P(2.61 mg), and Mg(1.99 mg). Ascorbic acid was found to be slightly higher(43.4 mg/100g.f.w.) in the basal parts of the medium size leaves and lowest in the whole parts(9.9 mg) of the small size leaves. Total polyphenol content was highest($1,384{\sim}1,258mg/100g.f.w.$) in the leaves, for all sizes, when extracted with 80% ethanol, followed by the stem bark(543 mg%), roots(369 mg%), stems(243 mg%), and thorns(223 g%). By determining DPPH activity, we found that antioxidant activity was higher in the ethanol extracts of the leaves than in the ethanol extracts of the thorns, stems, roots, and stem bark. While in the tea, no differences were found between the ethanol and water extracts.

  • This study evaluated the effects of heat treatment on antioxidant activity of Rehmannia radix Libosch (RRL). RRL was heated at various temperatures ($110-150^{\circ}C$) for various times (1-5 hr), and the total polyphenol, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity were investigated. With increased heating temperature and exposure time, total content of polyphenol, flavonoid, as well as antioxidant activity increased. The highest total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were 21.65 and 3.56 mg/g, respectively, these values were occurred after heating for 3 hr at $150^{\circ}C$ (RRL was 5.09 and 0.83 mg/g, respectively). The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity was highest value of 83.46% after heating for 3hr at $150^{\circ}C$. The 2,2-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) cation radical scavenging activity was highest value of 20.43mg ascorbic acid (AA) eq/g after heating for 2 hr at $150^{\circ}C$. There were highly significant differences in the total polyphenol, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity among heating temperatures and times (p<0.001), with heating temperature having the greater effect.

  • This study was performed to evaluate and compare the antioxidant substance content and antioxidant activities of white (Superior) and colored (Hongyoung, Jayoung, Jasim, Seohong, and Jaseo) potatoes. The potatoes were extracted with 80% ethanol and were evaluated for the total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents and for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)/2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and ferrous metal ion chelating effect. The total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents of Hongyoung and Jayoung were higher than white and other colored potatoes. All colored potato extracts, except for Jaseo and Seohong, showed higher ABTS radical scavenging activities than the general white potato extract. Hongyoung and Jayoung had the highest ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities. Optical density values for the reducing power of Jayoung and Jaseo at concentration of 2 mg/mL were 0.148 and 0.090, respectively. All colored potato extracts had lower ferrous metal ion chelating effect than the white potato. A significant (P<0.05) positive correlation was observed between total polyphenol content and total flavonoid content (r=0.919), anthocyanin content (r=0.992), and ABTS radical scavenging activity (r=0.897). Based on these results, this research may be useful in developing the Hongyoung and Jayoung cultivars with high antioxidant activities.

  • To develop appropriate potato clones as functional food materials, we collected 35 potato breeding clones to analyze the contents of the total polyphenol, anthocyanin, and vitamin C with the 'Superior', 'Dasom valley', and 'Gogu valley' cultivars as controls. Based on our analysis great differences were observed in different potato clones. KPG16 had the highest content of total polyphenol at $105.08mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}\;FW$; KPG13 had the highest content of anthocyanin at ${\cdot}4.78mg100g^{-1}\;FW$; KPG20 had the highest content of vitamin C at $22.16mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}\;FW$. Some clones had higher contents of the total polyphenol but lower levels of anthocyanin. Ultimately, potato clones showing relatively high indexes for all three compounds, could be considered as good functional food material. By equilibrium analysis of the contents of total polyphenol, anthocyanin, and vitamin C, KPG5 showed relatively higher contents, with values of 103.95, 3.15, $12.12mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}\;FW$, respectively. Therefore, KPG5 was considered to be the best potato breeding clone in view of a functional potato breeding system.

  • The physicochemical properties and schizandrin contents of various solvent ($H_2O$, 50% EtOH, 75% EtOH, 95% EtOH) extracts from residue after Omija juice was investigated using total polyphenol contents (TOC), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity (RAS), anthocyanin contents (ANC), and schizandrin contents level (SCL). Total polyphenol contents, radical scavenging activity, and anthocyanin contents of 50% EtOH extract were the highest among all residue after Omija juice extracts, and was 16.70 mg/mL in the TOC and 86.16% in the DPPH-RAS. This meant that 50% EtOH extract from residue after Omija juice had more available antioxidant matters. As extraction time increases all extract treatments significantly reduced in the ANC contents (p <0.05). Amount of the SCL were observed higher value in 95% EtOH extract of residue after Omija juice.
