This study was conducted to investigate methods of increasing raw ginseng consumption. To accomplish this, Insambob was prepared by adding minced raw ginseng (MRG), ground raw ginseng (GRG) or extracts of red ginseng (RGE). Sensory quality, textural properties, and changes in the ginsenoside and free amino acid composition of the Insambob then were investigated. Insambob containg 50% RGE had the best color, flavor and texture, but that containing 10% GRG had the best taste and overall acceptability. The hardness and adhesiveness were highest for containing 10% GRG and decreased as the amount of ginseng added increased. However, the hardness increased, while the adhesiveness of Insambob containg RGE decreased significantly as the amount added increased. Moreover, the ginsenoside composition changed upon addition of ginseng, with the levels of ginsenoside-Rb1, -Rb2, -Rb3, -Rc, -Re, -Rd, -Rg1, and -Rf decreasing and ginsenoside-Rh2, -Rh1, and -Rg3 newly appearing. Finally, the total free amino acid contents of Insambob increased upon addition of MRG, GRG and RGE.

Enzymatic treatments of maize flour (MF) were investigated using commercial carbohydrases (Ultraflo L and Pentopan 500 BG) to enhance the phenolic acid content and antioxidant property. The total phenolic acid content of the MF was 3.76 mg/100 g, whereas those of the Pentopan 500 BG and Ultraflo L treated MF were 6.85 and 39.55 mg/100 g, respectively. Particularly, ferulic acid content of Pentopan 500 BG-treated MF was 20.0 times higher than that of untreated MF (1.7 vs. 33.9 mg/100 g). Pentopan 500 BG appeared to be more effective than Ultraflo L in increasing the free phenolic acid content. Antioxidant activities of enzyme treated MF were significantly higher than untreated MF. In particular, the Pentopan 500 BG-treated MF (16.0 mmol TE/100 g) was approximately 1.5 times higher than untreated MF (12.6 mmol TE/100 g). Enzymatic hydrolysis of cell wall polysaccharides in MF could be used as an effective procedure for not only increasing phenolic content but also antioxidant activities.

This study was to investigate the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of snack with various amounts Cham chwi and oil. This result was used to determine the optimum condition of adding levels of Cham chwi and oil. Flavor, crispness, greasiness, oil absorption, expansion rate were selected as the physicochemical and sensory characteristics to determine the optimum conditions of the amount of Cham chwi and oil. The predicted values were obtained by the regression method of RSM(response surface methodology). Conditions were standardized with maximum range of expansion rate when expected value of crispness was more than five and expected value of greasiness was less five. The optimum conditions of Cham chwi snack was established as the 8.6% of Cham chwi and 7.6% of oil.

The purpose of this study is to verify factors affecting the use of dental hygiene care products in adults. The study used a nationally representative sample of Koreans (2013 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) aged 19 years over (n=4,839). Dependent variable was frequency of tooth brushing per day, use of dental floss, use of interdental brush and use of mouth rinse. Independent variable was sociodemographic factors, health behaviors, perceived health and oral health conditions. The chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the factors affecting the use of dental hygiene care products. All analyses were performed using PASW Statistics version 18.0. Resulting of chi-square test, the use of oral hygiene care products was statistically significant with gender, age, education level, household income, marital status, dental utilization, dental examination. Resulting of logistic regression, in female, the higher the education level was identified as common factors for variables in use of dental hygiene care products. Dental hygienist among dental professionals should play an important role as contributor to the national oral health promotion that recognizes the impact of each factor by refining dental hygiene care products and reflect personal characteristics and preferences through the oral health educational media and program development.

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of quality of life (QoL) and its related factors in patients with Korean Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). With data collected by Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey in 2013, general and disease-related variables, pulmonary function test, and EuroQol-5Dimension (EQ-5D) were analyzed. The mean of EQ-5D index was 0.916 in patients with COPD and 0.941 in non-COPD. The EQ-5D index and its sub dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activity, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) of COPD patients were significantly lower than that of non-COPD. However, difference in COPD patients' airway limitation was significant only for self-care of EQ-5D (${\chi}^2=9.50$, p=.013). The related factors of QoL in COPD patients were age, gender, level of education, quartile of household income, smoking status, and number of comorbid diseases. Based on the results, it is important to pay close attention to COPD patients' QoL as well as comprehensive interventions which possibly improve their QoL.

Illegally adulterated compounds, such as impotency drugs and their synthetic analogues, which have been purported to enhance sexual potency or mood, have been constantly detected in foods including dietary supplements. The adulterated foods with these illegal compounds may threaten public health because their safety and efficacy have not been verified. This study was aimed at investigating illegal compounds in foods and counterfeit products. 54 illegal compounds were assayed using a simultaneous analytical method involving liquid chromatography equipped with photo diode array (LC-PDA) and LC coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The method was validated in terms of selectivity, linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), precision and accuracy. In 48 of 161 samples, we identified 7 different illegal compounds, including sildenafil, tadalafil, chlropretadalafil, demethylsildenafil, dimethyl-thiosildenafil, icariin and yohimbine. When purchasing products marketed for erectile dysfunction or aphrodisiacs, ulmost care should be taken owing to the possible presence of these illegal compounds.

Purpose: This study was implemented to develop and validate the semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) to assess energy, carbohydrates, fat, protein, minerals, and vitamins as well as fatty acids and alcohol in Korean adults. Methods: The SQ-FFQ consisted of 88 food items, and 12 food groups were selected based on information of frequently consumed foods from the Korean Health and Nutrition Examination survey. Each portion size was categorized as one of three amounts: small (0.5 times), medium (1 time), and large (1.5 times). A total of 111 subjects finished 3-day diet records and the SQ-FFQ. The relative validity of SQ-FFQ was assessed by comparison with the 3-day diet records. Results: The mean nutrient intakes obtained from the SQ-FFQ were estimated to be greater than those of the two 3-day dietary records. Spearman's correlation coefficient between the two methods was the highest for energy (r = 0.583; p < 0.001) and lowest for saturated fatty acid (r = 0.121). Correlation coefficients were energy (r = 0.583; p < 0.001), carbohydrates (r = 0.500; p < 0.001), protein (r = 0.466; p < 0.001), fat (r = 0.411; p < 0.001), dietary fiber (r = 0.467; p < 0.001), alcohol (r = 0.527; p < 0.001), calcium (r = 0.409; p < 0.001), phosphorus (r = 0.499; p < 0.001), potassium (r = 0.418; p < 0.001), magnesium (r = 0.427; p < 0.001), and zinc (r = 0.464; p < 0.001), respectively, for all subjects. Conclusion: The developed SQ-FFQ in this study seems to be useful for estimating nutritional status, particularly energy, carbohydrates, protein, fat, dietary fiber, alcohol, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and zinc of Korean adults.

The objective of this study is to suggest the utilization of educated dental hygienist as the solution to the problem of supply and demand in dental clinics that has been brought up recently. Through document research and National Health Personnel Licensing Examination Board homepage, we estimated the number of dental hygienist and the condition of employment as well as gotten a grasp of the current activities carried out by dental hygienists. Furthermore, through discussion of researchers, suggested reform bills to guarantee and extend the work of dental hygienists as well as to train dental assistant. The findings were as follows: As the result of the estimation of dental hygienist, in the year 2009, two dental hygienists structure will be formed in each dental clinic. Currently the practice ratio of non-law activities of dental hygienists is high and in order to increase the practical use of dental hygienists, there is a need to reform bills that guarantee and extend the work of dental hygienists. In order to train new labors, there is a need for cautious consideration to distinguish the activities of existing trained labors, reforming of bills, and considering from various other sectors. From present point of view, solving the problem of existing trained dental hygienists, researching for the plan of utilizing dental hygienists and carrying it into practice must be the priority.

Korean government decided to adopt an explicit population control policy in 1961 and from the following year the establishment and operation of the national family planning programme was included in each of the Five-Year Economic Development Plans that began in 1962. This policy was pursued in the understanding that without proper population control measures korea could not be able to achieve economic development. Korean national family planning programme is characterized by contraceptive target system through public health network with distribution of free contraceptives by family planning field workers and clinical contraceptive services such as IUD, vasectomy and tubaligation at designated clinics by the government. In addition, IE&C activities by the Planned Parenthood Federation of Korea and programme evaluation and research by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs contributed to the development of the government programme. Between 1960 and mid 1980s the nation's total fertility rate was reduced from 6.0 to population replacement level of 2.1 and thereafter it has been maintained at 1.6 to 1.7 of below replacement level. With a short period of less than three decades fertility transition was completed in Korea. It is estimated that if the current level of below replacement fertility continues, the population in Korea stabilize at around 52.78 million people by the year 2028, and it will begin to decrease thereafter. Under this circumstances, the government adopted new directions and strategies of the population policy in June 1996, focused primarily on population quality and social welfare than on demographic arenas. In spite of over 80 percent of high contraceptive prevalence among married women, high incidence of induced abortions is maintained. Moreover, the prevalence of sex selective induced abortions using procedures to determine the sex of the fetus has resulted in an imbalance in the sex ratio at birth. In order to overcome those problems associated with reproductive health new policy for population quality control and health promotion programme should be highly strengthened in the future.
