  • The proximate composition, pH, vitamins and minerals in sunflower seed sprout were investigated to furnish basic data for utilization in health food or processed food. The pH of sunflower seed sprout was 5.70. The contents of moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash and crude fiber of sunflower seed sprout were 94.7%, 1.3%, 0.3%, 1.3% and 1.6%, respectively. The vitamin A, vitamin B$_1$, vitamin B$_2$, vitamin C and niacin contents in sunflower seed sprout were 114.411. U%, 0.06mg%, 0.05mg%. 5.90mg% and 0.80mg%, respectively. The contents of Ca, P, Fe, Na, K, Mn, Cu, Zn and Mg in sunflower seed sprout per 100g were 80.00mg, 4.85mg, 3.63mg, 8.25mg, 180.90mg, 1.35mg, 0.43mg, 1.85mgand 66.35mg, respectively. The crude ash and crude fiber content of sunflower seed sprout were 3 or 4 times higher than those in the sprout of radish seed, mung bean, soybean or alfalfa, respectively.

  • Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli) is a type of cabbage that contains vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. Consequently, it is used as a potential nutraceutical source for improving human health by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. Here, the effects of broccoli sprout extract (BSE) on the inflammatory response were investigated through lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory mouse models. First, we found that the BSE obviously reduce NO production in RAW 264.7 cells in response to LPS stimulation in in vitro study. Pretreatment with BSE administration improved sperm motility and testicular cell survivability in LPS-induced endotoxemic mice. Additionally, BSE treatment decreased the levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-a, IL-1β, and IL-6, and COX-2 in testis of LPS-induced endotoxemic mice models. In conclusion, BSE could be a potential nutraceutical for preventing the excessive immune related infertility.

  • This study aimed to develop low-salt seasoned Gim (김) with new functionality to meet the diversification of the export market and consumer demand for Gim, which is one of the four major seafood products in Chungcheongnam-do province. Spirulina, a microalgae containing essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, is known to have antioxidant components such as phycocyanin. Therefore, to determine the suitability of spirulina as a seasoning material, we conducted seaweed. It can be used as a substitute for seasoning salt in the development of low-salt seasoned laver with enhanced functionality.

  • The supplementation of mulberry leaves, with the aim of yield, enhancement using vitamins, minerals and other compounds have generally been attended from 1990s and many researches have been conducted. More than 30 different compounds from complementary nutrients have been analyzed and in different regions where different climates various results have been achieved. This review has attempted to discuss the results of different works on enrichment of mulberry leaves with supplementary compound. Generally the most effects of these compounds are in the regions where productive parameters are low. In the areas that follow a normal pattern in economical parameters the enrichment of the leaves havent have significant economical effects.

  • This study was performed to evaluate the effects of high supplementary diet of vitamins, minerals, and polysaccharides on enhancing immunity and preventing from cancer in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(hepatoma). Dietary therapy for patients was performed with dried yeast, wheat germ. Gonoderma extract, and vegetable juice. The vegetable juice was made of fresh green edible vegetables. Ten patients of total 30 patients were considered as improved state in tumor sizes, AFP, or symptoms. Most of patients complained of weight loss, fatigue, indigestion, anorexia before dietary therapy, but most of symptoms disappeared after dietary therapy. There was no significant side effects because of dietary therapy except for occasional slight diarrhea.

  • The nutritional composition of transgenic rice (Agb0101) with bar and modified cry1Ac1 genes grown with herbicides was compared with that of its non-transgenic counterpart. The analyzed components (proximates, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, vitamins, trypsin inhibitors, and phytic acid) in the herbicide-treated Agb0101 brown rice were substantially equivalent to those of its non-transgenic counterpart.

  • Drought is one of the major abiotic constraints limiting quantity and quality of rice grain. In order to elucidate the effects of drought on chemical compositions of rice grain, seedlings were cultivated in a rainout shelter controlled with well-watered or water-deficit conditions. After harvesting, the key components including proximates, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, and vitamins of rice grains were analyzed. Drought stress increased the amounts of methionine, phenylalanine, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, calcium, potassium, vitamin B1, and vitamin E in rice grains, whereas it decreased the contents of lignoceric acid. Particularly, drought stress caused a marked increase in vitamin E content. These results indicate drought significantly influence the chemical compositions of rice grains.
