This study was conducted to examine quality stability during storage periods, herb high pressure boiled extract(HPBE)(T$_1$), Korean Ogol chicken HPBE(T$_2$), cross-bred Ogol chicken HPBE(T$_3$), cross-bred Ogol chicken meat hydrolyzed with flavourzyme(T$_4$) were pouch packaged and stored at 37$\^{C}$. After each period, TBARS, VBN, pH, total microbial counts and sensory properties were determined and the results were as follows. There was no noticeable difference in TBARS value until 42 days at the ambient environment among the treatments, but T$_4$ showed a significantly higher TBARS value at 56 days. There was a tendency for a higher protein decomposition as storage time increased, and in particular at 56 days, T$_1$ group showed a significantly higher values than other groups. Given to the sensory properties in which overall sensory preference decreased after 42 day, it was considered that the maximum storage time for the extract was less than 42 days at 37$\^{C}$.

The antioxidative activity and bioactivity of water, ethanol, and methanol extracts from Paecilomyces japonica (PJ), Cordyceps militaris (CM), and cordycepin-enriched C. militaris JLM0636 ($CM{\alpha}$) were tested in in vitro experimental models. The PJ water extract showed the highest extraction yield (42.53%). The highest content of phenolic compounds and flavonoids were found in the water extract of PJ, 2.72% and 1.73%, respectively. The major minerals were K, Mg, and Ca. The water extracts of PJ also showed the highest DPPH free radical scavenging activity and reducing power. Linoleic acid peroxidation and antioxidative activities were strong in $CM{\alpha}$. The methanol extracts of PJ showed the highest inhibition activity against tyrosinase. Fibriolytic activity was higher in $CM{\alpha}$ than in CM. These results may provide basic data to understand the biological activities of bioactive materials derived from $CM{\alpha}$ for the development of functional foods, cosmetics, and antithrombotics.

Quality and flavor compounds of perilla loaves cultivated in greenhouse(May) and field (August) in Geumsan province were investigated and compared. All perilla leaves contained 4.0％ crude protein and 0.8％ crude lipid. Crude flavonoid contents of perilla leaves cultivated in greenhouse and field showed 25.2％ and 26.5％, respectively and each crude saponin content was 2.7％ and 2.8％. Pretense activity were showed 11.8 unit in ethanol extracts and 7.1 unit in water extracts of perilla leaves cultivated in field. Hardness and chewness of bottom parts of field-perilla leaves were higher than those of top and middle part, whereas the cohesiveness of top parts and middle parts of perilla leaves were higher than that of bottom part. Furthermore, texture properties of greenhouse-perilla leaves were similar with those of field-perilla leaves except chewness. Nine kinds of flavor compounds such as 1-octen-3-ol, linalool, ${\beta}$-caryophyllene, ${\alpha}$-caryophylene, ${\alpha}$-farnesene, perilla ketone, nerolidol, eugenol, ${\alpha}$-cadinol were identified in greenhouse-perilla and field-perilla leaves, showing that main flavor compound was perilla ketone.

An agarolytic marine bacterium (H9) was isolated from the coastal seawater of the West Sea, South Korea. The isolate, H9, was gram-negative and rod-shaped with a smooth surface and polar flagellum. Cells grew at 20-30℃, between pH 5.0 and 9.0, and in ASW-YP (Artificial Sea Water-Yeast extract, Peptone) media containing 1-5% (w/v) NaCl. The G+C content was 41.56 mol%. The predominant isoprenoid quinone in strain H9 was ubiquinone-8. The major fatty acids (>10%) were C_16:1ω7c (34.3%), C_16:0 (23.72%), and C_18:1ω7c (13.64%). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and biochemical and chemotaxonomic characterization, the strain was designated as Pseudoalteromonas sp. H9 (=KCTC23887). In liquid culture supplemented with 0.2% agar, the cell density and agarase activity reached a maximum level of OD = 4.32 (48 h) and OD = 3.87 (24 h), respectively. The optimum pH and temperature for the extracellular crude agarases of H9 were 7.0 and 40℃, respectively. Thin-layer chromatography analysis of the agarase hydrolysis products revealed that the crude agarases hydrolyze agarose into neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose. Therefore, the new agar-degrading strain, H9, can be applicable for the production of valuable neoagarooligosaccharides and for the complete degradation of agar in bio-industries.

Our review begins with the maize hybrid for grain, called 'Seakso 1,' which was developed in 2008 by the Gangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services in Korea, and subsequently registered in 2011. In this study, we aimed to investigate the lipid metabolic enzyme activity and inhibitory effect on the adipocyte differentiation, in 3T3-L1 cells of the identified Seakso 1 corn husk and cob extracts (EHCS). We investigated the pancreatic lipase inhibitory effect and anti-adipogenic effect of EHCS.The lipid accumulation and adipocyte differentiation were measured by the procedure of Oil Red O staining, Real-time PCR and the Western blot analysis. The pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity of EHCS was measured at higher levels than those of the positive control (orlistat) at 100, 500, and $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. In particular, EHCS was noted as being significantly inhibited and including a measured adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation, when treated during the adipocyte differentiation process in 3T3-L1 cells. Based on the Oil Red O staining, EHCS inhibited lipid accumulation at 19.19%, 33.30% at $1000{\mu}g/mL$, $2000{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The real-time PCR and Western blot analysis showed that EHCS significantly decreased in the mRNA expression and protein level of obesity-related factors, such as peroxisome-proliferatorsactivated-receptor-${\gamma}$ ($PPAR{\gamma}$) and CCAAT enhancer-binding-proteins ${\alpha}$ ($C/EBP{\alpha}$). This study potentially suggests that the Saekso 1 corn husk and cob extracts may improve lipid metabolism and reduce lipid accumulation.

In this study, we carried out an experiment for estimation the larval digestibility in aspects which digestive enzymatic activities and nutrition of the rotifers, Brachionus rotundiformis. Thus we enhanced the digestive enzymatic activity through the addition of starch for the increase of digestibility of rotifer (starch-rotifer), and compared with the feed efficiency through rearing of the olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus used rotifer lipid-enriched with Algamac $2000^{(R)}$ (CE-rotifer). The digestive enzyme activities (except for TG-lipase), total protein contents, total essential amino acid, essential amino acids (methionin and phenylalanine) of starch-rotifer (the rotifer used a starch as additive, and enriched not) was assayed significantly higher than CE-rotifer (P<0.05). And total lipid, lipid classes (except for sterol) and fatty acids as DHA and EPA showed higher in CE-rotifer than starch-rotifer (P<0.05). But, sterol contents and ST/TG ratio were shown significantly higher in starch-rotifer (P<0.05). The flounder larvae supplied the two rotifers showed standard length and body weight that not significantly differed with ranges $3.72{\sim}3.79\;mm$ and $32.9{\sim}37.8\;mg$/larva on 6 days after hatching (DAH), respectively (P>0.05). However, these of 12 DAH showed the values of significantly higher to $5.94{\pm}0.249\;mm$, $144.0{\pm}23.86\;mg$/larva and $26.2{\pm}12.13%$ in standard length, body weight and survival in CE-flounder than that of starch-flounder (P<0.05). The hydrolytic enzymatic activities of flounder larvae severally supplied the two rotifers showed the significantly higher activities in acidic -amylase, neutral -amylase, TG-lipase, lysozyme and acidic phosphatase in starch-flounder on 5 DAH (P<0.05). But neutral $\alpha$-amylase, three proteases and two phosphatases of CE-flounder on 11 DAH showed the significantly higher activities than that of starch-flounder (P<0.05). Therefore, for the flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus larvae just depleted yolk was more beneficial to supply the feed, rotifer, enhanced the digestibility than to supply the feed lipid-enriched for aspect of larval digestibility up to 6 DAH, thereafter nutrition of absorption due to the development of digestive organs suggested that enrichment effect appeared with larval somatic growth. Consequently, investigation more detailed about the larval digestive physiological and nutritional requirement variations after 6 DAH will be necessary, thereafter.

This study was conducted to find out the effects of aqueous extract from the leaves of Artemisia capillaris (AA) on the reduction of hepatotoxicity induced by ethanol in rats. In this experiment, Sprague Dawley rats were used in the experimental groups, which were divided into 5 groups; normal group, ethanol+UDCA (ursodeoxycholic acid)-treated group (positive control), ethanol-treated group (control), ethanol+Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract-treated group (200 mg/kg of BW) and ethanol+Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract-treated group (400 mg/kg of BW). AST (aspartate aminotransferase), ALT (alanine aminotransferase), GGT (gamma(${\gamma}$)-glutamyl transferase) and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) activities of the ethanol+Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract-treated group (400 mg/kg of BW) were significantly decreased compared to that of the ethanol-treated group (P<0.05). The triglyceride level of the ethanol-treated group was significantly increased and the HDL-cholesterol level was significantly decreased compared to the normal group (P<0.05). On the other hand, the triglyceride level was significantly decreased (P<0.05) and the HDL-cholesterol level was significantly increased (P<0.05) in the ethanol+Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract-treated groups. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was enhanced significantly (P<0.05) in the ethanol+Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract-treated groups. Also, malondialdehyde contents were decreased in this group (P<0.05). Histologically, in the control group, there was a mild degenerative change around central venule. The AA treated group showed well preserved lobular architectures with no evidence of steatosis or liver damage in aqueous extract from the leaves of Artemisia capillaris treated group (H&E, ${\times}20$). As the results of this study, it is thought that Artemisia capillaris aqueous extract may have effects on the improvement of hepatic damage by ethanol.

The food quality of lupin seed, i.e. soaking, cooking, sprout growing and mold growing for fermentation, was investigated by using the seed of Lupinus angustifolius harvested in Western Australia. A method to produce lupin seed protein concentrate (LPC) was developed, and the wage of LPC in Korean food system was investigated. The water soaking rate of lupin seed was faster than that of soybean, but the cooking rate of lupin seed was much slower compared to soybean. The thermal softening time, $D_{100}$, was 345 min for lupin seed and 84 min for soybean. A two-phase solvent extraction system consisting of haxane-alcohol-water could effectively remove the residual bitter taste, lipid and yellow pigments of lupin seed flour, and the resulting LPC contained over 50% protein and had bland flavor and milky white color. Treatment of LPC with carbohydrate decomposing enzymes resulted in a product of more soluble and higher concentration of protein. Methods to produce lupin seed vegetable milk and lactic beverages from LPC products were discussed.

To investigate the feasibility of mucosal delivery of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH, a potent analogue of LHRH, enzymatic proteolysis of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH and inhibitory effect of medium chain fatty acid salts(MFA) were studied using rabbit mucosal homogenate. $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH incubated in homogenates of rectal(RE), nasal(NA) and vaginal(VA) mucosa were assayed by HPLC. The degradation of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH followed the first order kinetics. The degradation products were found as $[D-Ala^6]$ $LHRH^{1-7}$(m-i), to a lesser extent, $[D-Ala^6]$ $LHRH^{1-9}$(m-ii) and $[D-Ala^6]$ $LHRH^{1-3}$(m-iii) by the method of amino acid analysis(PITC method). The formation of$[D-Ala^6]$ $LHRH^{1-7}$ was not inhibited by the addition of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid but inhibited by sodium tauro-24,25-dihydrofusidate, suggesting that endopeptidase 24.11(EP 24.11) cleaves the $Leu^7-Arg^8$ bond of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH and is the primary $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH degrading enzyme. The patterns of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH degradation indicated that EP 24.11 exists in each mucosal homogenate with the order of RE>NA>VA. MFA significantly inhibited the proteolysis of $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH. The addition of sodium caprate(1.0%) or sodium laurate(0.5%) to the each mucosal homogenate completely protected $[D-Ala^6]$ LHRH from the degradation.
