To investigate soluble polysaccharide of Chinese tallow leaf, a glycoprotein was extracted and isolated from Chinesetallow leaf. The glycoprotein was purified by Sephadex G-100. The average molecular weight of the glycoprotein was 53000.Quality ratio of saccharide and protein was 94:6 using sulphuric acid-phenol method and amino acid analysis. PC and TLC ofthis glycoprotein indicated the saccharide component that consisted of galactose, glucose, rhamnose, arabinose, xylose with themolar ratio of 25:24:18:31:2 respectively. Amino acid analysis of this glycoprotein showed that Gly,Ala,Ser etc. were mainlyneutral amino acid constituent. The characteristics of the glycoprotein by IR analysis showed the typical absorption ofpolysaccharide and indicated the presence of α-glycoside linkage. The β-Elimination reaction demonstrated the existence ofO-glycoside linkage in this glycoprotein. At the same time, the antioxidant activity was also investigated. This was a glycoproteinof hybrid neutral polysaccharide with hydroxyl radical scavenging activity.

The Galacturonic acid residues in Cp-2-B were reduced by Taylor method to be Galactosyl residues using deuteriumindexed reducing reagent NaBD4, and then subjected to methylation treatment and assayed by GC-MS. The results suggested thatthey contained non-reducing terminal, 3-O- and 4-O-substituted galacturonic acid residues, indicating the presence of three kindsof galacturonic acid residues in Cp-2-B. NMR analysis was also supported this conclusion. Additionally, The actions to thecrude pectinase and endopolygalacturonase suggested that Cp-2-B had no consecutive region of (1→4) linkage Galacturonicacid residues.

During processing fruit and vegetable, the combined treatment of high-pressure jet and medium temperature cancontribute intrinsic colour, flavor and good quality to processed food, which will thus be extremely helpful in the field of foodproduction. Based on the impulsed pressurization brought by continuously high-pressure jet, the effects of the processing onthe peroxidase (POD) activity in wax gourd juices are discussed in this paper. Results show that the processing conditions suchas pressure, temperature, ambient pH value and treatment time can influence greatly the POD activity. POD can be inactivatedunder the pressure of >50MPa or the material temperature of 35℃ and 55℃, while this enzyme can be activated under <40MPa or the material temperature of 45℃. When the temperature of raw material is 35℃, the pressure is 20MPa and the treatmenttime is 4min, the acidity of pH 2.99 can inactivate subtotal POD, while the effect of pH 4.96 and 5.96 is contrary. In addition,POD is activated in the beginning, and then is inactivated gradually along with lasting of the treatment time. And the higher thepressure is treated, the shorter the processing time used to inactivate POD.

Emulsion activity and emulsion stability of MPP is similar to soy protein .The ability of emulsion for solid fat byMPP was beffet than isolated soy protein. Adding MPP into ECMP (Emulcified Cominuted Meat Products) could yield moreproduct with improved texture than adding isolated protein. This functional property of MPP might be related to the solublepolymor formed by protein molecules.

‘haohui’peaches (Prumus persica Batsch)were treated with 1,10 and 100μmol/L methyl jasmonate (MeJA)vapor respectively at 20℃ for 24h before stored at 0℃ for 35d.The untreated fruits developed chilling injury symptoms after4 weeks of storage,as mainly evidenced in increased fruit firmness and reduced extractable juice,referred to leatheriness.Thetreatment with 1or 10μmol/L MeJA has promoted normal ripening and softening,maintained higher levels of extractable juice,total soluble solids(TTS),reducing sugar,total sugar,titratable acidity,VC and improved color development,thereby prevenedchilling injury symptoms development and maintained edible quality.MeJA treatment has also reduced fruit weight loss anddecay incidence.

The experiments have studied physiological and bilchemical change on banana packed in LDPE bags with differentthickness and stored at room temperature about 20℃.The thicknesses of LDPE bags respectively were 0.022mm、0.028mm、0.037mm and 0.061mm.Through analysis on weight loss、peel color、firmness、revert sugar、starch and ethyleneproduction,it proved that by comparing the four types of bags,the one with 0.061mm thickness could better usefully postponethe storage life of banana.

The effects of exogenously applied 1-MCP on physiological and quality changes in harvested apple cv.Fuji fruitswere investigated.Treatment with 1or 2μl/L 1-MCP significantly inhibited the senescence process of harvested apples,asmanifested in low levels of ethylene production and respiratory rate butin high levels of VC retaining and total soluble solidcontents.In fruits treated with 1-MCP,low levels of PE and PG activity were detected,the degradation of protopectin was inhibited,and fruit firmness was maintained at higher level in comparison with control fruits.The experimental results suggested that 1-MCPmight delay fruit senescence by inhibiting ethylene production,thereby keeping better quality during ambient temperaturestorage.

In certain conditions, by the respiration of the product itself and the permeation through the plastic films, this productcould spontaneously control the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the storage preservation bags. According to thelinear relationship, the equation between the concentration of oxygen or carbon dioxide and thickness (D), area (A), storagen (w)has been established. The storage preservation bags, which have been designed according to this equation, could preserve leek-balt perfectly as long as 90 days, containing of VC, and chlorophyll with edibility rate satisfactorily.

Immune milk is a kind of new concept health promotional food.The definition,biologieal active constituents(elements)and health promotional functions of the dairy products, as well as the correlative colostrums products were introduced.The historyof research works about immune milk, the recent domestic and foreign studies and exploitation on immune milk produets werereviewed in the article.Since 1993, some Chinese scientific researchers have been engaged in the studies,notable achievementswere obtained,and semi-commercial immune milk products were produced.However,the immune milk products made in Chinahave not been seen in the market yet,whereas several brand bovine colostrum produts made in the country have become availablein Chinese dairy market.Nevertheless the imported immune milk products (e g from Stolle Immune Milk Company of America)have new been avarilable also in big department stores in quite a few metropolises.It was believed that immune milk and itsproducts would be prosperous in Chinese incoming dairy market.
