The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect on lowering blood LDL-C in an adult human, by taking n-6/n-3 balanced Hanwoo beef and reducing n-6/n-3 in loin of Hanwoo beef. The randomized complete block design was used to conduct an experiment with a total of 20 castrated Hanwoo cattles, which were divided into two groups. Each group had 10 cattles, and the control group consisted of absence of linseed, while n-3 treatment group (n-3 group) had linseed. The results showed that n-6/n-3 in loin and blood was decreased to under 4:1 in n-3 group, while oleic acid as an monounsaturated fatty acid was increased by 52.79% compared to the control group. In above 70% of the clinical subjects who ate the balanced Hanwoo beef, the blood triglyceride, total cholesterol, and LDL-C were decreased by 25.35, 5.22, and 17.59%. However, in the subjects who ate the imported beef, and not the common Hanwoo beef, the same parameters were increased by 9.05, 8.21, and 21.70%, respectively. When the balanced Hanwoo beef were eaten, HDL-C were increased by 6.07% but the imported beef and common Hanwoo beef had those values decreased by 14.46 and 11.46%, respectively. The blood glucose was decreased by 6.42 and 11.82% in the subjects who ate balanced Hanwoo beef and common Hanwoo beef, respectively but the subjects who ate the imported beef had an increase by 15.19%.

9월이다. 하늘이 한층 높아졌고, 커진 일교차에 카디건 하나쯤은 필수로 챙기게 된다. 입추가 지난 지는 오래요, 이슬이 내리기 시작한다는 백로도 이미 지났다. 어딜 봐도 분명 가을이다. 그런데 왜 바깥 온도는 30도가 넘고, 뙤약볕은 모든 걸 구워버릴 기세로 내리꽂히고 있는 걸까?

Effects of supplemental charcoal powder and vitamin A on physico-chemical properties in 24 Hanwoo steers were investigated. The Hanwoo steers were randomly assigned to one of the three dietary treatments : 1) Control (commercial feed) 2) T1 (commercial feed supplemented with 2% charcoal powder and 0.2% vitamin A) 3) T2 (commercial feed with 2% charcoal powder). Crude fat content of proximate chemical composition in longissimus muscle was increased at control but moisture of control was rather lower than that of treatment groups (p<0.05). The WHC (water holding capacity) in longissimus muscle was tended to increase in control and shear force was higher in T2 (p<0.05). However, effects of diets charcoal power and vitamin A on pH were not found (p>0.05). Tenderness and flavor of sensory evaluation was improved significantly in control with peculiar and savory taste of Hanwoo being more emphasized. But Juiciness were not difference by treatments. When Hanwoo steers were fed with dietary charcoal powder and vitamin A, the palmitoleic acid and linoleic acid contents were higher compared with that of control (p<0.05), but oleic acid was higher in control than others.

This study was carried out to determine effects of the feeding length of spent mushroom composts from selenium-enriched mushroom (Se-SMC) on meat quality and carcass characteristics in finishing Hanwoo steers. A total of 20 steers were used in this trial with four treatments. Treatments included control (no Se-SMC), Se-SMC groups of three different feeding lengths (2, 4, and 6 months). After the completion for each feeding length, steers were slaughtered and then loin muscle (Longissimus dorsi) was sampled to evaluate meat quality characteristics. Chemical compositions of the loin, except for protein content, were not different across treatments. Protein content was highest in 6 months feeding groups, however, it was lowest in 4 months. Physical property and meat color (L*, a* and b* values) were not affected by the feeding length of Se-SMC. However, water holding capacity (WHC) for Se-SMC feeding treatments was significantly more improved (p<0.05) in comparison with the control group, showing 63.8 (2 months), 64.4 (4 months), 64.2 (6 months), and 59.5% (control), respectively. Grades for meat quality and quantity, and carcass characteristics were not affected by feeding length of Se-SMC. Our results showed that Se-SMC supplementation was not significantly associated with parameters for meat quality and carcass characteristics. However, as feeding Se-SMC lengthens, WHC for loin was more improved, suggesting that the improved WC may result in the expression of antioxidant effect.

This study was indicated that both potato leaves and stems contained certain amount of alkaloids compounds which digested in the rumen of Hanwoo steers. Three candidate plant byproducts such as potato, tomato, and eggplant were collected and dried for making feed additives. Among the candidate byproducts, potato extract was contained 2.05±0.27mg/g of α-chaconine and 0.60±0.08mg/g of α-solanine. These glycoalkaloids was potentially activated as functional compounds to skeletal muscle in beef cattle. However, tomato and eggplant byproducts were not detected any alkaloids compounds. After potato byproducts collected and dried for 24 hours, dry matter of potato byproduct were used as feeding study for evaluating active dose titrations. For evaluating dietary rate of rumen microbes, potato dry matter were treated with in situ hybridization for 72 hours using annulated Hanwoo steers. The glycoalkaloids contained potato dry matter were digested until 12 hours after treatment. Blood concentration of glycoalkaloids were not detected after 24 hours treatment of potato dry matter. These data indicated that potato byproduct were digested with rumen microbes for 24 hours after treatments.

Effects of feeding timothy hay roughage in the growing period on the beef quality with during 24 month(5 month from 28 month to) in twenty Hanwoo steers were investigated. Hanwoo steers were randomly assigned to 2 groups (10 heads/treatment), the control group (C) and the treatment group (T). Cooking loss and the shear force value of m. longissimus tended to be higher in the control group, and the panel test scores of juiciness and flavor were higher in the treatment group. However the tenderness was significantly higher in the treatment group (5.10 points) relative to the control group (4.30 points) (p<0.05). The proportion of fatty acids that were saturated ranged from $42.83{\sim}40.75%$. The unsaturated fatty acid, mono-unsaturated fatty acid and poly-unsaturated fatty acid contents in the two groups were not significantly different (59.25%, 55.61% and 3.40%, respectively, for T; 57.17%, 54.40% and 2.77%, respectively, for C) (p>0.05).

This study fulfilled to investigate the feed efficiency, tissue selenium distribution, carcass characteristic and economic value in finishing Hanwoo steers fed organic selenium mix (OSM) which included seleno-yeast, rumen culture and other microbial supplements. Forty five finishing Hanwoo steers were tested for 4 months dividing to three feeding groups: OSM add as 0.5 ppm Se of DM feeds (0.5 ppm OSM), OSM enriched add as 1.0 ppm Se of DM feeds (1.0 ppm OSM) and basal diet without OSM (control). The total weight gains, the average daily gains and the feed intakes were not differ in treatments (p > 0.05). No differences (p > 0.05) were noted for hot carcass weight, loin eye area, backfat thickness, meat yield index, meat color, fat color, tenderness and maturity. However, the 1.0 ppm OSM showed better performances for feed requirement, TDN per gain, meat yield grade and meat quality grade compared to other groups. Tissue selenium distribution was increased by organic selenium feeding: higher Se concentration in liver and rump of 0.5 ppm OSM (p < 0.05), and kidney, liver, sirloin and rump of 1.0 ppm OSM (p < 0.05) than the tissues of control group. Generally, tissue selenium was the highest value in 1.0 ppm OSM and showed higher concentrate in order; kidney, liver, sirloin and rump. The income over feed cost was 1.06-fold higher in 1.0 ppm OSM than control group. In conclusion, organic selenium mix supplementation and its amounts were not influenced to feed intake, body gain and carcass characteristic but significantly increased tissue selenium. Therefore, these results suggest that finishing Hanwoo steer fed an enriched organic selenium mix with proper probiotics is able to produce “high-Se” beef as high bioavailable form as well as create a beneficial opportunity on Hanwoo farm.

This study was conducted to determine effects of different supplementation periods (2, 3 and 4 months) of spent composts of Se-enriched mushrooms (Se-SMC) on plasma glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity and selenium deposition of finishing Hanwoo steers for the optimal supplementing period determination in order to produce Se-fortified Hanwoo beef. In the present study, 30 Hanwoo steers were allotted to treatments in six groups of five steers per pen. Treatments were separated into control and Se-SMC for each supplementation period. Dietary selenium contents were 0.1 and 0.9 ppm for control and Se-SMC treatments, respectively. At the end of each supplementation period, steers by periods were slaughtered to collect hind leg and liver samples for their selenium analyses. Blood samples were taken to analyze whole blood Se concentration and plasma GSH-Px activity at the last day of each supplementation period. Dry matter intakes were unaffected by Se-SMC and supplementation periods. In addition, average daily gain was not different between control and Se-SMC treatments and among supplementation periods. There was no difference for total body weight gain between control and Se-SMC treatments within each supplementation period. The supplementation of Se-SMC significantly (P<0.001) increased whole blood Se concentration, but whole blood selenium concentration was not affected by the supplementation period. Furthermore, plasma GSH-Px activity showed similar trend as shown in the pattern of whole blood Se concentration, but no difference by supplementation periods was observed. Selenium contents in hind legs significantly (P<0.05) increased with increasing supplementation periods, and also they were significantly (P<0.001) higher for Se-SMC supplementation groups in comparison to controls. However, there was no difference for selenium contents of hind legs between three and four months supplementation. Selenium contents in livers tended to slightly increase with increasing supplementation periods with no significant difference, but they were significantly (P<0.01) higher for Se-SMC supplementation groups compared with controls within the same period. The results indicated that the optimal Se-SMC supplementation period for the selenium deposition in Hanwoo steers might be around two or three months when we considered selenium contents in hind legs and livers.

This study was conducted to investigate the compositional properties by different cut of Hanwoo steer beef. 10 cuts [Abjin (short plate), Bosup (top sirloin), Cheggt (striploin), Dngsim (Ioin), Guri (chuck tender), Hongduke (eye of round), Moksim (chuck roll), Sulgit (bottom round), Udoon (top round), Yangji (brisket)] were prepared from 10 Hanwoo steers ($24{\sim}28$ mon old) were used for the experiment. Calorie contents were $2,205{\sim}3713.20\;cal/g$ and loin, striploin, short plate were significantly higher than the other cuts (p<0.05). Loin was highest in cholesterol content, whereas top round and eye of round were lowest among 10 cuts (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in soluble and insoluble collagen contents although chuck tender, chuck roll and bottom round contained significantly higher total collagen and loin and striploin contained significantly lower total collagen contents than the other cuts (p<0.05). The result from the analysis of free amino acids showed that glutamate and alanine contents were $275.99{\sim}536.04\;mg/100g$, $130.63{\sim}175.23\;mg/100g$, respectively and followed by arginine ($7.00{\sim}10.49\;mg/100g$), phenylalanine ($4.70{\sim}13.88\;mg/100g$), and leucine ($5.98{\sim}10.26\;mg/100g$) in 10 cuts. $1^{++}$ grade Hanwoo steer beef had significantly higher IMP (Inosine monophosphate) and inosine in eye of round (30.04% and 6.25%) and top round (33.44% and 6.28%), while hypoxanthine contents were significantly higher in chuck tender than the other cuts (p<0.05). In fatty acid analysis, there were not significantly differences in fatty acid composition among 10 cuts only except for C16:1n7, C20:3n6, and C20:4n6 (p>0.05).
