본 연구는 항원성을 저감한 우유 및 유제품 개발을 위한 기초자료 도출을 위해 열처리와 감마선 조사 처리 시 우유의 화학적, 미생물학적 및 면역적 변화를 비교하였다. 열처리와 감마선 조사 처리 시 열처리 온도와 조사량이 높을수록 유리지방산 함량이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 UHT 처리시와 5 kGy 조사시 유리지방산 함량은 유사하였다. $10^3$ CFU/mL 수준의 원유를 저온, 고온, 초고온으로 열처리시와 1${sim}$10 kGy로 감마선 조사처리 시 모두 일반세균과 대장균 군이 검출되지 않았으나, 일주일 지난 후에도 UHT 처리유와 5kGy 이상 조사 처리유에서 일반세균과 대장균 군이 검출되지 않았다. 원유를 열처리시 arginine, asparate, iso-leucine, leucine, lysine, methionine이 감소된 반면 조사처리에 의해 aspartate, histidine, iso-leucine, leucine, lysine이 감소되어 열처리와 조사처리가 단백질의 일차구조에도 영향을 미칠 수 있는 것(p<0.05)으로 나타났다. 또한, 우유의 항원성은 감마선 조사처리시 5kGy 이상에서 유의적(p<0.05)으로 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 5 kGy 정도의 감마선 조사처리로 UHT 처리시와 유사한 화학적, 미생물학적 효과와 우유의 항원성 감소효과를 기대할 수 있다.

Chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, are the leading cause of death and disability in Korea since 1970 due to lifestyle change introduced by urbanization & industrialization. The type of cancer and cardiovascular diseases changes as lifestyle becomes westernized. These diseases account for 4 of every 10 deaths and affect the quality of lift of Koreans. Although chronic diseases are among the most common and costly healthy problems, they are also preventable. Adopting healthy behaviors such as quitting smoking, being physically active, eating right with moderate alcohol drinking, and maintaining healthy weight can prevent or control the effect of these diseases.

The trend towards ageing populations has been observed over many years in Europe and the US but has accelerated significantly in developed countries in Asia including Japan and South Korea. In the latter country the elderly population (65+) has increased 5-fold between 1960 and 2000 and this group will comprise 40% of the population by 2050. This creates a new socio-economic group with specific demands and considerable spending power. As ageing occurs a range of changes occur in the body that can be moderated by adjustments in nutrition. A significant body of evidence points to changes in the balance of glutathione synthesis and utilisation as people age. Glutathione is tile most important natural anti-oxidant of the body and the amounts present can become limited by available cysteine in the diet. A cysteine-enriched peptide product, Cysteine Peption$^{TM}$ has been developed by DMV International for dietary supplement and food applications. A qualitative consumer trial has indicated benefits including improved sleep and more energy. Animal and clinical trial will be described that provide indications on bioavailability and possible mechanisms of action of Cysteine Peption$^{TM}$ with particular focus on the ageing population.

Microcapsules consisting of natural, biodegradable polymers for controlled and/or sustained core release applications are needed. Physicochemical properties of whey proteins suggest that they may be suitable wall materials in developing such microcapsules. The objectives of the research were to develop water-insoluble, whey protein-based microcapsules containing a model water-soluble drug using a chemical cross-linking agent, glutaraldehyde, and to investigate core release from these capsules at simulated physiological conditions. A model water soluble drug, theophylline, was suspended in whey protein isolate (WPI) solution. The suspension was dispersed in a mixture of dichloromethane and hexane containing 1% biomedical polyurethane. Protein matrices were cross-linked with 7.5-30 ml of glutaraldehyde-saturated toluene (GAST) for 1-3 hr. Microcapsules were harvested, washed, dried and analyzed for core retention, microstructure, and core release in enzyme-free simulated gastric fluid (SGF) and simulated intestinal fluid(SIF) at $37^{\circ}C$. A method consisting of double emulsification and heat gelation was also developed to prepare water-insoluble, whey protein-based microcapsules containing anhydrous milkfat (AMF) as a model apolar core. AMF was emulsified into WPI solution (15${\sim}$30%, pH 4.5-7.2) at a proportion of 25${\sim}$50%(w/w, on dry basis). The oil-in-water emulsion was then added and dispersed into corn oil ($50^{\circ}C$) to form an O/W/O double emulsion and then heated at $85^{\circ}C$ for 20 min for gelation of whey protein wall matrix. Effects of emulsion composition and pH on core retention, microstructure, and water-solubility of microcapsules were determined. Overall results suggest that whey proteins can be used in developing microcapsules for controlled and sustained core release applications.

Korea dairy market has greatly expanded recently by growing up the consumer's demands of high quality of milk products and their functionality due to expanding of well being lift trends. However, life cycle of dairy products is shorter than ever before and low birth rate is a common trend of Korean people. Moreover due to the national economy crisis, most of dairy companies are faced with the pressure of new milk products development and their sales. This paper deals with the development of Korea dairy industry by chronological order and deals with the future applicable new dairy foods and advanced dairy technology.

Lactic acid bacteria had been widely utilized in fermented foods such as fermented dairy products, traditional sauces, kimchi, fermented sausages, medicines or probiotic feed additives for a long time. LAB are also widely distributed in the mammalian gastrointestinal tracts, oral cavity, vagina, and various foods or soils. The most familiar examples of using LAB would be the fermented milk products, and those had become one of the favorite foods in Korea f3r more than 34 years of history. The main benefits of the fermented milk products were originally the improvement of the balance of intestinal flora to control diarrhea and congestion disorders, and gradually, they were chosen by the consumer preference of the taste. The very beginning of the fermented milk products in Korea was the Yakult type products in 1971, and it was the commencement of the solid foundation of the dairy industry and the understanding beneficial effect of probiotic yogurt. After middle of 80's, stirred type fermented milk products had been firstly produced, and it was the time that the domestic dairy industry took root in Korea. From 90's, functional fermented milk products were produced, and drink type yogurt sales a mount increased drastically, and these products began to be chosen not only with the values of nutrition but also with physiological functions. The health claims are classified into intestinal health, gastric health and hepatic health. The prospects for the Korean market are as follows; The majority of leading products would be the premium functional yogurt products as it was last year. It is because the sales of lower cost products shows slow-down, and industries tend to increase the commercial advertisements of premium functional yogurt products through mass media. These tendencies would make the market situation become more competitive.

전세계 많은 나라들은 조제분유를 특수 영양식품으로 분류하여 관리에 각별히 신경을 쓰고 있으며, CODEX에서는 첨가되는 거의 모든 성분을 모유에 들어 있는 것이어야 하며, 또한 과학적으로 안전성이 입증된 것만을 넣을 수 있도록 규정하고 있다. 이 때문에 분유 메이커들은 제품 개발을 위해 많은 모유 및 우유 성분에 관한 연구를 바탕으로 하여 모유의 조성에 맞추는 노력을 하고 있다. 국내산 분유는 외국 제품에 비해 면역기능 향상, 항-알레르기 능력 향상, 뇌와 소화기관의 발달 등을 돕는 성분이 강화되어 있다. 현재 생명과학기술의 진보와 각종 신기술의 도입으로 모유 및 우유속의 극미량 성분까지 분리정제가 가능함에 따라 다양한 기능성을 갖는 성분들이 상품화되고 있으며, 이를 이용해 조제분유를 개발하고 있다. 두뇌 발달 성분인 DHA, 아라키돈산 등과 면역기능 강화 성분인 뉴클레오타이드, 락토페린 등의 첨가 및 정장기능을 보이는 올리고당 등의 성분강화에서 이제는 뼈 성장 발달인자, 아토피 및 알레르기의 감소를 위해 가수분해물의 이용 등의 기능을 보강한 다양한 제품이 개발되어지고 있는 중이다.

In 1967, cheese was first produced with small scale of mozzarella cheese in Korea. The processed cheese market was highly grown after putting on the market of sliced cheese in the late 1980's, and the various products that complied with well-being trends such as organic and high functional cheese have been produced in the 2000's. The natural cheese opens up a new domestic market after producing camembert and brie cheese in the end of 2004. At present. the cheese market is expanded with differentiated products such as high value added and high functional cheese. The size of domestic cheese market remains about 200 billion won, but it is expected to go over a trillion won on account of growing preference of natural cheese with well-being trends. To promote domestic cheese industry, differentiation policy of raw milk price for cheese, diversification of cheese products, financial support to farm-made cheese industry and automation and processing development to improve productivity should be taken into account in the future in Korea.
