Effective method for the preparation of Dongchimi juice was developed by addition of NaCi, sucrose and bydrolytic enzymes before fermentation and addition on Dongchimi juice during fermentation. The radish was ground and suspended in water(1:1, w/v) with addition of spices(garlic, green onion and ginger) followed by fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$. The addition of 2% NaCi and 0.5~2.0% sucrose resulted in significant increase of solid content and it was also improved by the addition of polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzyme during fermentation. When the fermented juices of pH 5.4 of 4.4 were added by 15% of total weight before(pH 5.4 juice)and during (pH 4.4 juice) fermentation, a significant increase in solid content after 24hrs of fermentation was resulted. The combined method of addition of 2% NaCI, 1.0% sucrode, 0.1% Viscozyme and 10% of fermented juice of pH 5.4 and 4.$ before and during fermentation improved solid content, reducing sugar, color and showed little effect on viscosity. The organoleptic characteristics were also improved by the combined method.

Enzyme-assisted hydrolysis is frequently used as a cost-effective and efficient method to obtain functional ingredients from bioresources. This study involved the enzyme-assisted hydrolyzation and purification of fucoidan from Ecklonia maxima stipe and the investigation of its anti-inflammatory activity in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Fucoidans of Viscozyme-assisted hydrolysate from E. maxima (EMSFs) harvested in Jeju, Korea. Structural and chemical characterizations were performed using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, and monosaccharide analysis. Among fucoidans, EMSF6 was rich in fucose and sulfate and had a similar structural character to commercial fucoidan. EMSF6 showed a strong inhibitory effect on nitric oxide generation in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells and significantly decreased the production of LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor α. The anti-inflammatory potential of EMSF6 was mediated through the downregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 expression. Thus, fucoidans from E. maxima stipe are promising candidates for functional food products.

The antioxidative activity of various enzymatic extracts from leaves of Perilla frutescens var. japonica was evaluated by measuring 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl, and alkyl radical scavenging activity using an electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometer. For this study, the leaves were enzymatically hydrolyzed by 8 carbohydrases (Dextrozyme, AMG, Promozyme, Maltogenase, Termamyl, Viscozyme, Celluclast, and BAN) and 9 proteases [Flavourzyme, Neutrase, Protamex, Alcalase, PP-trypsin (trypsin from porcine pancreas), papain, pepsin, $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, and BP-trypsin (trypsin from bovine pancreas)]. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of Promozyme and Alcalase extracts were the highest, and the $IC_{50}$ values were 77.25 and $109.66\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. All enzymatic extracts of the leaves scavenged hydroxyl radical, and the $IC_{50}$ values of Celluclast and pepsin extracts which were the highest activity were 243.34 and $241.86\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The BAN and $\alpha$-chymotrypsin extracts showed the highest scavenging activities, and the $IC_{50}$ values were 21.13 and $33.23\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The pepsin extracts from the leaves showed protective effect on $H_2O_2$-induced DNA damage. In addition, the pepsin extracts decreased cell death in PC-12 cells against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative damage. The findings of the present study suggest that enzymatic extracts of the leaves possess antioxidative activity.

An edible marine red alga, Grateloupia filicina, collected from Jeju Island of Korea was hydrolyzed by cheap food-grade carbohydrases (Viscozyme, Celuclast, AMC, Termamyl, and Ultraflo) to investigate its anticoagulant activity. Among the tested enzymatic extracts of G. filicina, a Termamyl extract showed the highest anticoagulant activity. Anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel-permeation chromatography on Sepharose-4B were used to purify the active polysaccharide from the crude polysaccharide fraction of G. filicina. The purified sulfated polysaccharide (0.42 sulfate/total sugar) showed ${\sim}1,357kDa$ molecular mass and was comprised mainly of galactose(98%) and 1-2% of glucose. The sample showed potential anticoagulant activity on activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) thrombin time (TT) assays. The purified G. filicina anticoagulant (GFA) inhibited the coagulation factor X (92%), factor II (82%), and factor VII (68%) of the coagulation cascade, and the molecular interaction (protein-polysaccharide) was highly enhanced in the presence of ATIII (antithrombin III). The dissociation constant of polysaccharide towards serine proteins decreased in the order of FXa (58.9 nM) >FIIa (74.6 nM) >FVII (109.3 nM). The low/less cytotoxicity of the polysaccharide benefits its use in the pharmaceutical industry; however, further studies that would help us to elucidate the mechanism of its activity are needed.

본 연구는 메밀 알곡에 비해 유효성분이 많음에도 불구하고 식품학적 가치가 떨어져 폐기되고 있는 메밀껍질을 기능성 식품소재로 활용하기 위해 메밀껍질을 효소로 분해하여 수용성 식품섬유를 생산하고자 하였다. 메밀껍질을 효소를 이용하여 72시간 분해하여 수용성 식품섬유의 수율을 측정한 결과, 72시간 효소분해 후 셀룰로스 및 헤미셀룰로스 분획으로부터 얻은 수용성 식품섬유는 각각 60.5 g/kg, 123.7 g/kg이었으며, 총 수용성 식품섬유의 수율은 129.8 g/kg이었다. 겔 크로마토그래피에 의한 수용성 식품섬유의 분자량 추이를 측정한 결과, 분해 시간이 증가함에 따라 저분자의 피크가 크게 증가하여 효소 반응 시간이 증가할수록 분해가 진행되었다. 효소분해되지 않은 메밀껍질의 수용성 식품섬유에 비해 효소분해에 의해 생산된 식품섬유소의 산화방지 활성이 높게 나타났으며, 대조군에 비해 높은 포도당 및 담즙산 흡수 지연효과를 보였다. 따라서 메밀껍질로부터 생산된 수용성 식품섬유소는 산화방지를 비롯한 포도당 및 콜레스테롤의 흡수저하 효과를 가진 건강기능식품 소재로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The effects of cell lytic enzyme treatment on total phenolic content, antioxidant and antityrosinase activities of lotus leaf were investigated. The dried lotus leaves were hydroyzed by cell lytic enzymes such as Promozyme, Ceremix, Pectinex, Ultraflo, Celluclast, Pentopan, Tunicase, Viscozyme at their optimum pHs (pH 5-8) at $50^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs. Depending on the enzymes used, total phenolic compounds content was measured as $1,079-1,476{\mu}g$/mL, and antioxidant activities and whitening activities were increased by 5~10% and 20%, respectively Among the tested hydrolytic enzymes, Promozyme (pullulanase) was selected as the most suitable enzyme for the extraction of total polyphenol from lotus leaf. The optimal dosage of Promozyme were found to be 1-2% (w/w). By Promozyme treatment, total phenolic compounds content of the lotus extract significantly increased compared to the extraction without enzyme treatment.

Various conditions for onion-juice production, and for alcohol and acetic acid fermemtations were investigated to produce a vinegar from onion. In the production of the onion juice, treatments with enzymes such as 0.6% Celluclast 1.5L and 0.2% Viscozyme L increased the yields significantly from 45.0% to 54.5% and 72.5%, respectively. Alcohol and acetic acid fermentations from the onion juice were effectively improved by using the onion juice heated at 80$^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes, and by adding 0.3% yeast extract, 0.3% $MgSO_4$ and 0.3% $K_3PO_4$ as nutrients to the onion juice. At the optimum condition, 5.8% alcohol was produced after five days of fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$ from the 14 Brix onion juice, which was adjusted by adding sugar. A vinegar with 6.7% acetic acid content was produced after 20 days of fermentation of $30^{\circ}C$ from 4% alcohol that was adjusted by adding onion juice.

This study aimed to develop and optimize a demucilaging process of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (OFI) fruit to increase its usability as functional food ingredient and food additive. Viscozyme and Novozym 33095 as multienzyme complex having a broad spectrum of carbohydrases and pectolytic enzymes, respectively, were used in enzymatic dissolution along with high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction. To optimize the liquefaction process using high hydrostatic pressure liquefying extractor, response surface methodology with 3-factor central composite design was employed with reaction factors such as temperatures (25, 32, 40, 48, and $55^{\circ}C$), pressures (20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 MPa), and times (15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 min). At optimum conditions ($25^{\circ}C$, 100 MPa, and 58.275 min) for high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction process, the processed OFI fruit juice was predicted to have viscosity at 2.917 poise, partly due to the release of free sugars such as fructose and glucose detected using HPLC-ELSA system. The results above suggests that the OFI fruit juice with decreased viscosity may be used for various manufacturing processes of food, beverage, ice cream, and cosmetics.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical properties of citrus peel extracts with different hot water extraction and enzymatic hydrolysis conditions. Enzymatic hydrolysis was also employed using Viscozyme L and results were compared with that of optimized hot water extract. Hot water extraction was performed under different parameters; the sample to solvent ratio(1:20, 1:15, 1:10), extraction time(2, 4 hrs), extraction temperature(85, $95^{\circ}C$) and enzymatic hydrolysis(0, 1%) and the subsequent extracts were used for determining their physicochemical properties, such as total yield, total phenolics, total flavonoids, and electron donating ability (EDA). With the increase in the sample to solvent ratio and extraction time, total yield, total phenolics, total flavonoids and EDA increased. But extraction temperature did not significantly affect the hot water extract. As hot water extract was hydrolyzed by the enzyme, total yield and active ingredients increased rapidly. In the result of total yield, total phenolics, total flavonoids and EDA, the activity of enzyme-treated extract was higher than those of enzyme-untreated extract. Based upon the overall hot water extraction efficiency, it was found that 20 times volume or 120 min at a time at $95^{\circ}C$ after enzyme treatment was optimal.
