The effects of microwave heating and air-drying of grapeseeds on the physic-chemical parameters and tocopherols in their oils were investigated. Microwave treatment improved oil yield and increased viscosity while reducing pigment contents (K410 and K670 values). Removal of tannin by washing grapeseeds with alcohol resulted in oil with low pigment content (K410 and K670 values). γ-Tocotrienol, the major tocopherol of grapeseed oil, and α-tocopherol,β-tocopherol,γ-tocopherol increased while δ-tocopherol concentrations decreased on heat treatment of grapeseeds. The negative effect of tannin removal was confirmed by the low tocopherol contents of its oil. The results demonstrated the impacts of using microwave heating in producing oil from grapeseeds.

To elucidate the colour stability of pork,oxymyoglobin was extracted at 24h post mortem and purified from semimembranosrs of pork.After seperation from metmyoglobin by chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose FF and Sephadex G-75 columns,its purity was controlled by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and scanning spectrophotometry.The autoxidation rate was measured over a wide range of pH values(5 0~7 0),temperatures(20~50℃),ionis strength(0~600mmol/L NaCl) and partial pressure of O2(0~150mmHg).The results showed the exogenous factors(pH,temperature,ionic strength and partial pressure of O2) had significant effects on the autoxidation rate of oxymyoglobin•Low pH,high temperature,high ionic strength and very low partial pressure of O2 could increase the autoxidation rate.

The effects of temperature, heating time, ratio of tea to water and pH value on extraction rate and activities of Oolong tea, Green tea and Black tea polysaccharides(TPS) were studied. The results showed that extraction rate of TPS was noticeably affected by pH, temperature, heating time and ratio of tea to water in significant order. It was concluded that pH was the main factor affecting activity of TPS, since activity of TPS extracted on the condition of acidity or alkalinity was very low. The model of extraction rate (Y) showed no significant lack of suitability at 5%, but it was statistically significant at 1%. The model was appropriate to express response variables. Considering high extraction rate and activity of TPS, the extracting condition was optimized by using expectant function approach for simultaneous optimization of several variable levels, these were 0~1 temperature, 0~1 heating time, 0~0.5 ratio of tea to water and -0.95 pH.

The method for determination of toxic components -ginkgolic acids in leaves of Ginkgo biloba by Ultraviolet spectrophotometry was established. The contents of ginkgolic acids in leaves of Ginkgo biloba collected within different vegetative periods were determined by UV and HPLC. The leaves of Ginkgo biloba were extracted by n-hexane in Soxhlet apparatus, then concentrated under vacuum. The ginkgolic acids could be determined directly by UV spectrophotometry at 242 nm and 310 nm after one-pre-purified-step by silica gel column chromatography. The linear regressive equations were A=1.55×10-4+16.36×C(R=0.999) and A=0.031+9.08×C(R=0.997) respectively. Their linear scope was 5.72~114.4 mg/L. The average recovery of ginkgolic acids was 97.6% and 97.5%,RSD was 2.1% and 2.4%(n=6) respectively. The results being detected at both wavelength were close to that by HPLC. The results showed that the content of ginkgolic acids in the leaves of Ginkgo biloba is relative to the vegetative periods ,and leaves of Ginkgo biloba are best collected in September. Not only is the method found to be simple ,fast and accurate,but has wide linear scope. The limit of detection can be up to 5.72×10-6. And it can be used for determination of toxic components-ginkgolic acids in the leaves and teas of Ginkgo biloba.

Genetic engineering is a biotechnology about DNA recombination. The Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) is the product of genetic engineering,that can get specific genetic characters and functions different from their natural species. Genetic engineering has been applied on agriculture and food industry and the genetically modified food has come into being. It is important to use genetic engineering safely and benefit from its advantages. In this review, the status quo and the development of genetic engineering and genetically modified food were reported.The safety problems of genetically modified food, including safety as food itself and safety in environment and in national economy, were reviewed. In addition, the safety assay and the regulations on the genetically modified food were evaluated.
