ABSTRACT : We examined the effect of antioxidative and antibacterial activities in Ukogi leaf extract on the quality of fresh cut vegetables. The vegetable quality tested in this study was the vitamin C content. The vitamin C contents in cut cabbage and cut cucumber were lower than those in non-cut fresh vegetables. The loss of vitamin C content in cut cucumber was significantly higher than that in cut cabbage. The effect of soaking in 2% Ukogi extract and various solutions on the vitamin C content in cut cabbage was examined. The vitamin C content in cut cabbage did not decreased by soaking in Ukogi extract. However, vitamin C contents in cut cabbage soaked in distilled water, 1% sodium chloride, 1% citric acid 1% acetic acid and 0.1% sodium hypochlorite solution were decreased by about 20%, 10%, 30%, 50% and 70%, respectively. Moreover, the loss of vitamin C content in cut cabbage soaked in Ukogi extract during storage at 10℃ for 3 days was about 10% slightly. These results demonstrate that Ukogi extract is useful for freshness preservation of cut vegetables. KEY WORDS : Ukogi leaf extract, vitamin C, cut vegetable, soaking treatment,
