It is well known that the fruit of the vitamin tree (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) provides excellent anti-diabetic, antibacterial, immune regulation, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects. In some countries including Europe the fruit has been added to certain foods to develop functional foods. The present research was carried out to elucidate the biological function of vitamin tree fruit powder added to fermented milk. It was found that there was an antioxidant effect of yoghurt made with vitamin tree fruit powder, and this effect was greater with increased incubation time and amount of vitamin powder, as shown by 1,1-diphenyl2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-anziobis (3-ehtylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic aicd) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities. The antibacterial effect of yoghurt containing vitamin tree fruit powder was shown to be effective against four pathogenic microorganisms, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Salmonela Typhimurium. In particular, yoghurt supplemented with 5% of vitamin tree fruit powder showed the best antibacterial effect. The yogurt containing the vitamin tree fruit powder significantly inhibited the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6 (yogurt [Y] + Hippophae rhamnoides L. powder [HP] and yogurt containing 5% Hippophae rhamnoides L. powder [HPY]) and IL-1β (HP, Y + HP and HPY) in a concentration-dependent manner among tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-6, IL-1, and induced nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Our results clearly demonstrated that vitamin tree fruit powder could be a good functional ingredient for improving health through yoghurt manufactured with vitamin tree.

It is well documented that the fruit of the vitamin tree, which is rich in vitamins A, C, E, and K, shows anti-diabetic, antibacterial, immune regulation, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects. In some countries including Europe it has been used to develop various functional foods. This study was conducted to elucidate the fermentation properties of fermented milk supplemented with vitamin tree (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) fruit powder. The pH, titratable acidity, number of viable cells, and viscosity of the yogurt made with vitamin tree fruit powder were found to be higher than those of the control group, as the amount of supplemented powder added became higher and the fermentation progressed. Production of lactic, malic, and acetic acids increased relative to that of the control as the amounts of supplemented powder were higher. It was found that the increase in the decomposition of lactose to glucose and galactose was proportional to the amount of supplemented powder added and the elapsed fermentation time. During storage for 15 days the quality of yogurt supplemented with vitamin tree fruit powder was within the proper range of fermented milk quality in terms of pH, titratable acidity, and number of lactic acid bacteria. The yoghurt manufactured with vitamin tree fruit powder has a similar quality to that of the control, and therefore, a new functional yoghurt providing health benefits could be developed.

Changes in antioxidant activity of Rubus coreanus fruit of 3 clones (S13, S114, and S16), which were selected from different sites, were studied at different ripening stages. Antioxidant activities (tree radical scavenging activity and reducing power) were determined and their relationships to total phenolic contents and ascorbic acid were analyzed. The highest tree radical scavenging activities of 3 clones (S13, S14, and S16) were 79.39, 75.80, and 81.16% at $125\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. In general, the antioxidant activity and the related parameters, including total phenolic content and vitamin C content decreased during fruit ripening. Total phenolic contents of the R. coreanus fruits (S13, S14, and S16) were correlated with tree radical scavenging activity ($R^2=0.8114$, 0.9186, and 0.9714). These results improve knowledge of the effect of ripening on the antioxidant activity and related compounds contents that could help to establish the optimum R. coreanus fruit harvest data for various usages.

Five samples (Bakwoonbae, Chungsilbae, Sandolbae, Dolbae, and Chuwhangbae) of Pyrus species differing in their origin of production were analyzed for total phenolic content, vitamin C content, and antioxidant activities. Two antioxidant activities were measured by the free-radical scavenging activity and reducing power method. Total phenolic content of the Chungsilbae extract (20.35 mg/g) was higher than those of other pears. Vitamin C content in five Pyrus species ranged from $420.32\;{\mu}g/g$ in Sandolbae to $659.75\;{\mu}g/g$ in Bakwoonbae. Chungsilbae also had the highest free radical scavenging activity (76.56%) and reducing power (0.35).

Actinidia arguta extracts obtained from three cultivars ('Sae-Han', 'Dae-Sung', and 'Chil-Bo') were assayed for their antioxidant properties and nutritional composition. Antioxidant activity of the extracts was evaluated using 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method. Total phenolic contents of the extracts were determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) content measured by a colorimetric method and reducing sugar content estimated by dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) method. Crude extracts from A. arguta 'Sea-Han' showed the most potent radical-scavenging activity showing 86.55% at 10 mg/ml. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of extracts and solvent fractions from Sea-Han cultivar was in decreasing order of EtOAc fraction>BuOH fraction>$CH_2Cl_2$ fraction>hexane fraction, among which EtOAc fraction showed the highest antioxidant activity (87.51 % at 5 mg/ml). Total phenolic contents in A. arguta 'Sae-Han', 'Dae-Sung' and 'Chil-Bo', were 32.93, 28.23, and 25.60 mg/g, respectively. Vitamin C contents of them were 840.57, 578.81 and 730.10 ug/g, respectively.

품종별에 따른 복분자 딸기 열매의 항산화 활성 및 기능성 성분 함량을 비교 분석하였다. 우수한 품종으로 개발한 정금 1, 2, 3, 4, 5호(10년생)와 도입종 블랙베리(Rubus fructicosus)를 사용하였다. DPPH법을 이용한 항산화 활성은 2 mg/㎖ 농도에서 46.58에서 78.55% 범위에 있었으며, 이 중 정금 1호의 항산화 활성이 우수하였다. 총 페놀 함량과 비타민 C 함량 및 안토시아닌 중 베리류의 대표성분인 cyanidin 3-glucoside의 함량을 측정한 결과 정금 1호가 다른 품종에 비해 우수한 결과를 나타내었다.

블랙 라스베리 과실의 성숙정도에 따른 항산화 활성과 이와 관련된 인자인 총페놀성 함량 및 비타민 C 함량의 변화를 측정하였다. 이러한 결과들로부터 과실의 성숙 단계에 따른 활성 및 성분변화 그리고 이들 간의 상관관계를 구명하였다. 블랙 라스베리 과실의 항산화활성측정 결과, 자유 라디칼 소거능 및 환원력 모두 과실이 성숙함에 따라 감소하였다. 또한 항산화 활성과 밀접한 관계가 있는 총페놀 함량 및 비타민 함량 역시 과실이 성숙함에 따라 감소하였다. 자유 라디칼 소거능은 과실 결실 5일 후에서 125ppm 농도에서 61.67%로 최대치를 나타내었으며 환원력은 과실 결실 10일 후가 0.71로 최대였다. 총페놀 함량과 비타민 C함량의 최대치는 각각 220.73ug/g과 540.45ug/g였다. 여러 인자들에 의한 상관관계 분석 결과 자유 라디칼 소거 활성과 환원력 그리고 환원력과 총페놀 함량과의 상관관계는 각각 r=0.9861와 r=0.9889로 고도의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 보면, 블랙 라스베리를 수확함에 있어 완숙과보다는 미숙과가 약리적인 측면에서는 유용한 성숙단계라 할 수 있지만 크기나 무게 그리고 맛이나 과색에서는 완숙단계가 식용으로는 적합하고 항산화 활성 등에서는 낮으나 이용 가능한 약리 효과를 가지고 있다고 할 수 있다.

국내에 충분히 보고되지 못한 소재로서 drumstick-tree (Moringa Oleifera Lam.)를 고부가가치 식품 자원으로서 그 활용가능성을 알아보기 위해 주요 영양성분 분식 및 in vitro 신경세포 보호효과에 대해서 연구하였다. Drumstick-tree의 주요 무기성분으로는 칼슘으로 2658.67 mg/100 g이 함유되어 있었고, 다음으로 칼륨, 마그네슘 및 인 등이 함유되어 있었다. 주요 지방산으로서 포화 지방산으로는 palmitic acid (16.33%)와 불포화 지방산으로서 gadoleic acid (66.34%)가 상대적으로 많이 함유되어 있었고, 지용성 비타민인 vitamin E가 94.78 mg/100 g 그리고 niacin이 112.61 mg/100 g 함유되어 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 80% methanol에 추출한 drum-stick-tree 추출물을 활용하여 $H_2O_2$ 처리한 PC12 cell 내의 활성산소 생성억제효과를 DCF-DA assay를 통해 측정한 결과 drumstick-tree 추출물은 농도의존적인 활성산소 생성 억제효과를 보였다. MTT assay를 이용하여 $H_2O_2$로 유도된 PC12 신경세포에 대한 보호효과를 측정한 결과 vitamin C group 대비 효과적인 신경세포 보호효과를 확인하였고, LDH release assay를 통해 일정 수준의 세포막 보호효과를 역시 확인하였다. 또한 PC12 cell의 oxidative stress-induced apoptosis에 대한 세포 보호효과를 측정하기 위한 caspase assay 실험 결과, 세포 내 caspase activity가 추출물의 의해 효과적으로 감소됨을 알 수 있었다. 결국 본 연구결과를 종합해 볼 때, 우수한 영양 구성 성분과 함께 신경세포 내 oxidative stress의 저감화 등을 통한 drumstick-tree 추출물의 신경 세포 보호 효과는 고부가가치 천연 소재로서의 다양한 산업적 활용 가능성을 암시하는 것으로 판단된다.
