The measurement of gastric emptying time is useful in differentiation of the hypochondriac neurosis from the functional gastrointestinal disturbance, and also useful in searching the hidden gastrointestinal disease in patients who are believed as the functional gastrointestinal disturbance. We confirmed in this study that the more delayed gastric emptying time was measured in functional gastrointestinal disturbance compared to normal group, and more shortened gastric emptying time was found after treatment with dopamine antagonist (cleboril) in this group.

Respiratory air flow rate is necessarily measured for the pulmonary function evaluation. The currently used devices are exposed to the problems of measurement reliability and cross-patient infection. The present study introduced a new technique which converted the bidirectional air flow rate into averaged dynamic pressure based on the famous Bernoulli's energy conservation principle. Single use plastic sensing element was assembled within the flow tube(mouth piece) made of paper, which was named "functional single use flow tube". Experiment demonstrated only ${\pm}1.5%$ relative error in the standard 3L volume measurement procedure well within the error limit suggested by the American Thoracic Society(ATS). Disposable use design completely eliminated cross-patient infection. The present device is best useful and safe for clinical respiratory air flow measurement such as spirometry.

As an attempt to develop new functional beverages, various ingredients including pine needle, P Japonica, C. Militaris, black tea, artemisia, cocoa, and persimmon leave tea, were used to make fermented beverages and their chemical and sensory properties were evaluated. The acidity of beverages produced was the highest in the one with C. Militaris, and the lowest in the ones with persimmon leave tea and pine needle. The pH of P Japonica beverage, 2.54, was the lowest among all. The sugar content was the highest in the one of C. Militaris and the lowest in cocoa-used one. In sensory evaluation, the fermented beverages prepared with persimmon leave tea, pine needle, and artemisia were significantly more preferable in acceptability than the others (p<.001). For purchase intention, the beverage prepared with persimmon leave tea got the highest score followed by the ones with pine needle and artemisia, and the scores of those three beverages were significantly higher than the others (p<.001). Hunter color test showed that fermented beverage added Black tea was the lowest in lightness, but the highest in redness and yet-lowness(p<.001). The beverages with high scores in sweet odor, sweet taste, and purchase intention were more favored in the sensory evaluation looking at the correlation among the sensory properties. And the lightness in color had a positive correlation, and the redness and yellowness had negative correlations with appearance quality of the beverages. Chemical properties like pH and acidity were negatively correlated with the acceptability, and the sugar content was positively correlated with sweet odor.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of functional food, which was processed with fermented soybean as main ingredient (FS), on the body weight, organ weight, plasma glucose, and plasma lipid in diabetic rats caused by streptozotocin (STZ). The body weight was decreased more slowly in the FS group than in the diabetic, and the food intake increased significantly in all diabetic groups. The food efficiency was very low in all diabetic groups, but increased significantly in the FS groups than diabetic control (p＜0.05). In comparing the weight of organ, the weight of liver and kidney were increased in all diabetic groups than in the control, and decreased slightly in FS groups. The weight of heart and spleen were not different among all test groups. In the oral glucose tolerance test, the blood glucose in the diabetic group was the highest in 60 minutes. And the blood glucose in the FS group was the highest in 30 minutes, and decreased significantly after 120 minutes to the level of fasting glucose. The glucose in serum was decreased significantly in the FS groups fed the functional food for 4 weeks, compared to the diabetic control (p＜0.05). Total cholesterol, triglyceride and atherogenic index (AI) in serum were significantly higher in diabetic control, compared to the normal (p＜0.05), and decreased by 16.4％, 15.4％ and 48.3％, respectively, in the FS fed 400 mg/kg of functional food. HDL-cholesterol was increased significantly in the FS-400, compared to the diabetic control. These results support that functional food using fermented soybean improve glucose and lipid metabolism in diabetic rats.

Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the relationship between gastric emptying, psychopathology(especially anxiety and depression), and various factors that can mediate stress and response, such as coping style, social support and level of perceived stress. Methods : A total 30 patients who complained of the non-ulcer dyspepsia and did not have any abnormal finding on the gastroduodenal endoscopic examination, 24 hour ambulatory esophageal manometry and conventional gastroesophageal manometry were tested with gastric emptying that would be a functional examination of stomach. The correlations between the gastric emptying and psychological vaiable such as quantity of perceived stress, Symptom Checklist-90-Revision(SCL-90-R), Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), Spielberger Stait-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI), Ways of Coping Checklist and Interpersonal Support Evaluation List were evaluated. Results : 1) The mean and standard deviation of the time for half of the meal to empty(T50%) was $118.50{\pm}23.64$ minute which showed no gastric stasis in terms of gastric emptying test. 2) There were significant positive correlations between T50% and the state anxiety, T50% and thedepression. 3) There was no significant correlation between T50% and the quantity of perceived stress, T50% and mediating factors(coping style and social support). Conclusion : These results suggested that psychopathology, especially emotional components such as depression and anxiety, could affect on the current physiological functional gastric activity(gastric emptying), but quantity of perceive stress and mediating factors of stress and response such as coping style and social support could not affected on the functional gastric activity. These results showed that psychological interventions should considered in management of the patients with functional dyspepia.

우리나라 쌀 생산량은 해마다 증가되고 있으나, 1인당 쌀 소비량은 급격히 감소되고 있는 수급 불균형을 이루고 있다. 특히 충청남도는 최근 6년간 전국 쌀 생산량 1위를 차지해 오고 있어서 쌀 소비의 확대방안이 더욱 절실히 요구되고 있는 지역적 특성을 지니고 있다. 취반용 쌀 소비량 확대만으로는 쌀 소비량 증대에 한계점이 있으므로, 소비자의 요구에 맞는 고 기능성, 간편식으로 다양한 기호성을 지닌 쌀 가공식품 형태의 개발이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 요구에 적합한 제품개발로 쌀을 이용한 쌀국수를 개발하고자 하였으며, 이러한 쌀국수 제품개발은 쌀을 이용한 제품개발은 또다른 시도가 되어 쌀 소비촉진이 향상될 것으로 기대된다. 기능성 쌀국수 개발을 위하여 천연물 중 연잎 소재를 첨가하였다. 연잎은 차와 사찰음식을 대표하는 소재중 하나이다. 연잎에는 비타민 C와 섬유소가 매우 풍부하다. 이러한 성분은 미용식품으로써의 응용이 가능하며, 식이 섬유소는 배변작용에도 도움이 될 수 있다. 또한 항산화제인 quercetin이 다량 함유되어 있다. 이 quercetin은 플라보이드 배당체이며, 우리 몸의 세포의 노화를 유발하는 유해 활성 산소를 제거하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 따라서 이러한 유해 활성산소를 억제하는 것이 항산화 활성이 높은 연잎을 이용하여 고 기능성 쌀가공품 제품 개발이 가능할 것으로 기대한다. 쌀가루 50%를 기준으로하여 연잎가루는 3% 첨가하였으며, 전분의 종류를 달리하여 최종 제품을 개발한 결과, texture analyser로 물성을 측정한 결과 타피오카 전분과 쌀가루 혼한 쌀국수의 물성이 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 관능검사 결과도 타피오카 전분과 쌀가루 혼합 쌀국수가 소비자들의 기호도가 높은 선호도를 나타내었고, 감자전분과 밀가루는 다소 낮은 선호도를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 기초로 하여 쌀제품 개발시 쌀의 가공적성 및 기능성 소재의 첨가 비율 확립하고, 연잎과 같은 쌀국수에 첨가 가능한 다양한 기능성 소재 발굴 및 첨가 가능성을 제시하고자 하였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of sponge cake quality added with different levels of Schizandra chinensis powder. Schizandra chinensis sponge cake was prepared with different levels of Schizandra chinensis (0, 5, 15, 20%). The proximate composition contents of Schizandra chinensis powder were analyzed as composed of 8.732% moisture, 10.25 crude protein, 8.63 crude lipid, and 1.98 crude ash. Results show that the baking loss rate was decreased with levels of Schizandra chinensis powder added, and the height was decreased as the Schizandra chinensis powder increased. As added ratio of Schizandra chinensis powder increased, L and b values were decreased. In addition, the texture properties result showed that the hardness and cohesiveness of sponge cake increased as the Schizandra chinensis powder added, while springiness decreased. Last, the sensory evaluation showed that the group of 5% Schizandra chinensis powder had the highest preference scores. Therefore, Sponge cake added with 5% Schizandra chinensis powder add gave the better taste and quality to sponge cakes in this study.

Purpose: We diagnosed pediatric functional gastrointestinal disorders in Korean children and adolescents using Rome III criteria and investigated the clinical validity of QPGS-Rome III. Methods: Diagnosis based on QPGS was compared with the physician's diagnosis based on Rome III criteria. One hundred and thirty eight children and their parents completed the QPGS. Agreement rates were measured using Kappa method. Results: In physician's diagnoses, the most prevalent disorders were functional dyspepsia (39.1%), irritable bowel syndrome (38.4%), and functional abdominal pain (18.8%). Among QPGS based diagnoses, the most prevalent disorders were irritable bowel syndrome (39.1%), functional dyspepsia (29.7%), and functional abdominal pain (21.7%). The agreement rate was substantial (${\kappa}$=0.72, p=0.00). Diagnostic disagreements probably resulted from different patient responses to bowel movement form and bowel frequency. Conclusion: Functional dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome, and functional abdominal pain were the most common disorders by Rome III criteria in the Korean pediatric and adolescent patients. The agreement rate between physician's diagnoses and QPGS based diagnoses supported the validity of the QPGS-Rome III in Korean pediatric and adolescent patients. QPGS seems to be useful in diagnosis of patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders by Rome III criteria.

소시지 제조시 저장기간 연장을 목적으로 첨가되는 potassium sorbate(0.5%, 1.0%)와 nit-rite 감소를 위하여 첨가되는 ascorbic acid의 농도(0.5%, 10%)를 조정하여 오미자 추출물 첨가 소시지의 저장성과 잔존 이질산염 함량을 1$0^{\circ}C$와 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 저장하면서 관찰한 결과 온도에 관계없이 pH, 수분, 부수력, 염도, TBARS, 색차 관능검사 모두 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 낮은 값을 나태었다.(P<0.05),그러나 오미자 첨가 소시지의 잔존 nitrite 함량의변화는 대조구에 비해 낮은 값을 나타내어, 아질산염이 감소된 기능성 소시지의 개발 가능성을 시사하고 있다.그러나 pH의 감소로 인하 보수력의 저하로 조직감이 떨어져 소시지 제조시 첨가 농도를 0.5% 이하로 낮추는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다.
