The purpose of the study is to assess and evaluate methods employed in nutrition surveys and to give an information on methodological considerations for future studies in Korea. Three hundred thirty six papers of nutritional surveys published from 1960 to 1990 were classified into 9 groups according to the survey subject and analyzed for methods used in survey. The frequency of publications according to the survey subject was as the following order : 'in-fants and preschool children' 'school age children' 'adolescence' 'college students' 'preg-nant and lactating women' 'housewives' 'the elderly' 'workers' and 'patients' Eighty five percents of papers applied methods of dietary assessment. of which weighing method recall method an record method were extensively used in the order. Questionnairs included items related to nutrition such as food habit nutrition knowledge etc. Anthropometric techniques were employed in 53% of papers and in general growth measurement were undertaken for children and body composition was emphasized for adults. biochemical assessment was limited to 32% of papers and assessment of anemia was the major test. Clinical studies were applied to 26% of the studies. of which only 5% employed examination of clinical signs of malnutrition Recently self-reported health status assessed using questionnaires has been adopted frequently. Further researches are required for evaluation of the methods employed in nutrition surveys in order to develop the standard model for nutrtion survey so that obtained data can become more reliable and utilized efficiently.

Iron deficiency is still a common nutritional disorder in the world. In developing countries, the bioavailability of dietary iron is often very low, mainly due to a low content of factors facilitating nonheme iron absorption. The iron content of the diet, iron status of subjects, and the actual composition of the diet are the major factors that influence the absorption of food iron. Inadequate dietary intake of iron often results from low-calorie diets, food restrictions, or single food diets. Ascorbic acid and MFP (meat, fish and poultry) are the quantitatively most important enhancers of nonheme iron absorption found in the diet. Ascorbic acid and meat have consistently been shown to enhance iron bioavailability. Major inhibitors of nonheme iron absorption are dietary fiber, phytate, and polyphenols. The availability of nonheme iron can be highly influenced by components of foods ingested concomitantly, Therefore, consumption of food in combinations can either enhance or inhibit nonheme iron absorption.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence of malnutrition and to explore its association with socioeconomic and social support factors among Korean elderly in the community. Methods : The study sample was a weighted population of 10,160 elderly who participated in the 2014 Korean Elderly Living Conditions and Welfare Survey. Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the association socioeconomic and social support factors have with malnutrition. Results : Of the Korean elderly 18.6% were at risk of malnutrition. Being uneducated (OR=1.40) and having a lower household income (OR=1.97) were significantly associated with malnutrition even after adjusting for other socio-demographic and health-related covariates. Elderly who lived alone (OR=1.86) and who had poor relationships with their children (OR=1.97) were at much higher risk of malnutrition than their counterparts. Their having poor relationships with acquaintances and poor social participation were also associated with malnutrition. Conclusions : Socioeconomic and social support resources are important factors in the nutritional status of the elderly.

우리나라 축산업이 과학적인 축산으로 변모하는 과정에서 선도적 역할을 해온 것이 양계분야인 만큼 생산성적에 있어서도 어느 타 선진국에 뒤지지 않을 만큼 높아지고 있다. 그러나 사료원료의 해외 의존도가 높고 개방경제시대에 접어들음으로서 외국의 양계산물과 경쟁을 벌리게 되는 이 시점에서 생산비중 가장 높은 비율을 차지하는 사료를 가장 경제적으로 이용함으로서 생산 효율을 극대화시킬 책임이 우리에게 있다. 우리나라의 년 중 기온차이가 심하고 대부분의 산란계가 유창계사에서 사육되고 있는 만큼 계절에 따른 온도 변화에 맞추어 계절 사양을 함으로서 하절기에는 영양소 결핍현상을 방지하고 동절기에는 영양소 과다 섭취로 인한 영양소 허실을 줄일 수 있다. 난중에 따른 난가 형성이 되는 시장 상황에서 난중을 조절함으로서 생산효율을 높일 수 있다. 비록 난중이 생리적인 현상에 의해서 결정되지만 닭이 섭취하는 아미노산과 지방의 함량을 증감함으로써 어느 정도의 난중조절이 가능하다. 산란율과 난중에 영향을 미치지 않는 범위에서는 산란계의 체중이 작을수록 경제성이 있다. 가급적 육성기간중의 사료비를 줄이고 성계 체중을 줄이는 방법으로 육성기간중의 사료비를 줄이고 성계 체중을 줄이는 방법으로 육성기간중 단백질 점증법이 시험되고 있다. 이러한 육성체계를 보급화 하기에 앞서서 좀 더 많은 비교 시험이 필요하리라 본다. 사료 원료의 영양가를 정확하게 평가하는 것은 닭이 필요로 하는 영양소 요구량을 충족시키기 위한 필수조건이 된다. 단지 영양성분의 화학분석만으로 사료배합에 임하지 말고 생물가를 측정함으로서 닭이 섭취하는 영양소의 이용률이 함께 고려하여야 한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship among dietary behavior, meal balance, and clinical symptoms related nutritional status and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD) in preschool children. The survey was conducted using questionnaires and the subjects were 3~6 years old preschool children in Samcheok. Subjects were divided into an ADHD dispositions group(n=88) and a normal group(n=129) based on assessments conducted by the children's mother using the Abbreviated Conners's Parent Rating Scale. There was no significant difference in meal frequency, meal speed, meal regularity or meal balance between children with ADHD dispositions and the normal groups. The ADHD disposition group had a higher proportion of children with picky eating(p<0.05), too much snacking(p<0.05) and over eating (p=0.05) habits than the normal group. In addition, the ADHD dispositions group had a higher frequency of clinical symptoms such as 'breathlessness when going up stairs', 'sleeplessness', 'anxiety' and 'tiredness'. Overall, there was a significant relationship between ADHD disposition and dietary problems and clinical symptoms related to poor nutritional status in preschool children. Therefore, to prevent and treat ADHD in preschool children, proper dietary management such as correcting of picky eating, over snacking and overeating is needed.

Lipoxygenase(LOX) in soybeans is responsible for beany flavors which limit the wide utilization of soybeans to foods. This study was conducted to analyze beany flavor compounds of the normal Hwagkeumkong and LOX-deficient soybean cultivars, Jinpumkong which lacks L-2, L-3, and Jinpumkong 2 which lacks all L-1, L-2, L-3. Using the combination of dynamic headspace sampling and gas chromatography-mass selective detector(DHS-GC-MSD) for analyzing volatile compounds, hexanal and hexanol were identified in whole soy flour of all three soybena cultivars. Hwangkeumkong had more volatile compounds than Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 in defatted soy flour. Hexanal and acetic acid were identified in soy milk of all three soybean cultivars but Hwangkeumkong had more volatile compounds than Jinpumkong 2. From the analysis with a static headspace sampling(SHS) and GC-MSD the major compounds were hexanal, acetic acid, 1-hexanol, and 1-octen-3-ol. The content of acetic acid was similar among three cultivars. But contents of hexanal and pentanal in Jinpumkong 2 were less than that of Jinpumkong and Hwangkeumkong. Using GC-FID, Jinpumkong 2 had less contents of hexanal and pentanol than Hwangkeumkong in whole soy flour and defatted soy flour. In this study, LOX-deficient soybean cultivars showed less hexanal, pentanol and other compounds than the normal Hwangkeumkong. However quite amount of beany flavor compounds were identified in Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2. So further studies are required to characterize LOX isozymes, to understand the mechanisms of beany flavors production, and to develop some other methods for removing beany flavor.

There was a mass outbreak of death caused by transport stress and malnutrition in Japanese macaques imported from Japan at a farm stock in Korea, which were diagnosed on the ground of history taking, clinical finding, hematological examination and necropsy. Twenty eight Japanese macaques imported from Japan died suddenly from the 4th day after arrival in a farm. These animals were confined very small cages individually and lose the appetite for 10 days from shipping. Main clinical findings observed from alive Japanese macaques consisted of hypothermia and dehydration. On hematological observation for typical 4 cases showed increased erythrocytes and packed cell volume. On serum biochemical examination for 3 cases showed hypoglycemia, whereas blood urea nitrogen, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were increased. On necropsy for 3 cases, hemorrhage and congestion were observed on the lung and the walls of stomach and intestine were thinned. Histologically, hemorrhagic pneumonia and enteritis with loss of villi were seen. The death of these animal was caused by poor management during transport, which was resulted in transport stress and malnutrition.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vitamin B2 deficiency on fuel metabolism in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Thirty rats were fed a vitamin B2 deticient diet(-B2) or a control diet (＋B2) for 2 weeks and then subdivided into 3 groups respectively : base group, one day diabetic group and three day diabetic group. Diabetes of the rats were induced by streptozotocin injection into the tail vein. Glucose, glycogen, protein, alanine, triglyceride and free fatty acid were compared in plasma, liver, skeletal muscle of rats. Also, the total urinary nitrogen and glucose excertion were compared. Compared with ＋B2 rats, the increase of plasm glucose in -B2 rats due to the diabetes tended to be smaller. After diabetes were induced, the levels of plasma protein and alanine was significantly decreased and the urinary nitrogen excretion was significantly increased in -B2 rats. The level of plasma free fatty acid was increased continuously in B2 rats while increased at the first day and decreased at the third day diabetes was induced in ＋B2 rats. These results suggest that vitamin B2 deficiency increase protein catabolism due to the decrease of fatty acid oxidation. Thus, vitamin B2 deficiency in diabetes impair the adaptation of animals to the fuel metabolism and aggravate the body protein wasting which is one of the chronic complications of diabetes.

A study was made on the effect of anti-nutritional factors found in some Korean beans : soybean, red bead, mung bean and kidney bean. Two animal experiments were conducted to investigate the nutritional value of the beans. The first experiment, in which the diet contained 15% protein from raw beans, compared the intensity of inhibition caused by methionine deficiency or a total amino acid deficiency. In the second experiment, the conditions were the same as in experiment I, except that heated beans were substituted for raw beans. Severe growth inhibition and high mortality was found in the raw kidney bean and red bean groups than in the soybean and mung bean groups. As no effect on the growth inhibition of raw bean groups was shown by methionine and protein supplementation, the inhibition could be ascribed mainly to the low feed intake and the low protein digestibility caused by toxic factors. Pancreatic enlargement was obserbed in all the raw bean groups. A increase in body weight, a decrease in mortality and a decrease in the weight pancreases were found in the heated bean groups. But the digestility of the diet and of the protein and the PER by heating did not increase as markedly as weight, except in the heated red bean groups. Even with heat treatment, the whole inhibitory action could not be eliminated.
