This study was carried out in order to investigate the changes in chemical components of four kinds of Cheonggukjang during fermentation. Three different kinds of Cheonggukjang were prepared with germinated soybeans using rice straw, Bacillus natto, Bacillus natto plus Aspergillus oryzae, and non-germinated soybeans using rice straw. The nitrogen contents increased significantly during fermentation in all kinds of Cheonggukjang. Especially germinated soybean Cheonggukjang prepared with A. oryzae plus B. natto showed approximately 1.3 to 3.0 fold higher values than the other Cheonggukjangs. Total free amino acid contents of all Cheonggukjangs increased with an increase in fermentation time until 60 h. Lysine content was highest in Cheonggukjang prepared with ungerminated soybean at 72 h of fermentation. Among free amino acids of germinated soybean Cheonggukjang prepared with rice straw, glutamic acid was highest (3.64 mg/g) after 72 h of fermentation. In Cheonggukjang prepared with mixed culture, glutamic acid content was 4.37 mg/g. Total carbohydrate contents of Cheonggukjang decreased rapidly with an increase in fermentation time except the ungerminated soybean Cheonggukjang, and the total carbohydrate contents varied from 9.81 to 14.04% after 72 h of fermentation. On the other hand, total carbohydrate contents of ungerminated soybean Cheonggukjang prepared with rice straw gradually decreased during fermentation. In conclusion, it is expected to increase the contents of functional constituents and to improve quality characteristics of Cheonggukjang when it is prepared with germinated soybeans using B. natto plus A. oryaze.

This study investigated the strains and fermentation characteristics of used to ferment a mixture of rice and soybeans to manufacture low-salt doenjang for flavoring. The soybean and rice mixture was fermented using three selected strains of Aapergillus oryzae and Bacillus sp. The changes in quality of the fermented products were found to be dependent on the aging period. Therefore, the strain and a suitable aging period were seleted based on the increases in AN, total sugar, and reducing sugar. The fermented products were prepared and mixed, using the selected or commercially available strains (the sample and control, respectively), to create low-salt doenjang. Following this, their characteristics were compared. The sample had a higher content of taste-related ingredients(free amino acid, nucleic acid-related substances) than the control. Using the selected strain to ferment a rice and soybean mixture will thus be expected to enhance the flavor of industrially produced seasoned doenjang.

This research was conducted to investigate the changes in quality characteristics of cheonggukjang made with 24-hr germinated soybeans during fermentation. Our study confirmed that the pH of the 24-hr germinated soybeans was 6.7, and the value increased as fermentation progressed. The amount of viscous substances in the cheonggukjang produced with the 24-hr germinated soybeans constantly increased to 5.89% at 36 hr of fermentation, and then remained unchanged. Free sugars (raffinose, sucrose, glucose, and fructose) rapidly decreased with the fermentation process. The levels of free amino acids in the 24-hr germinated agakong and the 48-hr fermented cheonggukjang were 391.0 and 10,994.8 mg%, respectively. Glutamic acid content was highest, followed by aspartic acid, lysine, leucine, and proline. The ratio of glutamic acid to total free amino acids at 48-hr of fermentation was 18.0%. Finally, it was confirmed that the sensory evaluation score of the 24-36 hr fermented cheonggukjang, made with the 24-hr germinated soybeans, was superior to that of the 24 and 48-hr fermented cheonggukjang.

Changes in pH, titratable acidity, reducing sugar, nitrogen compound and mineral of black bean chungkugjang(BBC)added with kiwi and radish during fermentation were investigated. During fermentation of BBC, pH was increased, while titratable acidity was decreased. The changes in pH and titratable acidity of all chungkugjangs other than BBC were very rapid after 24 hrs of fermentation. Reducing sugar content was highest in BBC and was increased by 24 hrs of fermentation and decreased thereafter. Amino-type nitrogen increased rapidly after 24 hrs of fermentation. The addition of kiwi and radish increased the content of amino-type nitrogen in BBC by enhancing proteolysis of black bean, being as much as in soybean chungkugjang. At 72 hrs of fermentation BBC was found to be lower in ammonia type nitrogen than soybean chungkugjang. Mineral content, in general, was higher in BBC than in soybean chungkugjang, showing highest in potassium followed by phosphorus, magnesium and calcium.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of soybean fermented with several Bacillus sp., which were selected based on their high enzymatic and antimicrobial activities. Total aerobic bacterial counts of fermented soybeans with HJ5-2 ($3.00{\times}10^9CFU/mL$) were the highest among all strains. Lactic acid bacteria numbered $2.50{\times}10^2{\sim}7.30{\times}10^4CFU/mL$ in soybeans fermented with isolates. Amylase and protease activities of the RD7-7 sample were the highest among all strains. Reducing sugar and amino-type nitrogen contents of fermented soybeans with HJ18-4 (2.35%) and RD7-7 (227.96 mg%) were the highest. Total amino acid contents of the samples were 16.62~18.38%, and glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, lysine, arginine were major amino acids. Oxalic acid (36.51~63.57 mg/100 g) and succinic acid (429.49~600.15 mg/100 g) were the predominant organic acid. These results provide useful information for development starter (single and complex) as well as for the production of high quality fermented soybean foods.

콩 발효식품은 예로부터 단백질 식품원으로서 뿐만 아니라, 식생활에서 없어서는 안되는 매우 중요한 식품 중의 하나였다. 발효식품에 대한 연구가 부진하였던 과거에는 콩 발효식품은 하나의 식품군으로서의 중요성을 가질 뿐 큰 관심의 대상은 아니었다. 그러나 최근에는 많은 연구자들이 콩 발효시 생성되는 기능성 성분 및 생리활성 효과를 점차 밝혀냄으로서 주목을 받기 시작하였다. 따라서 본 실험에서도 콩 발효에 의한 생리활성 효과를 알아보기 위해 Ames법에 의한 항돌연변이원 효과를 실험하였다. 콩 발효는 국산콩을 이용하여 메주에서 분리한 Bacillus sp. 와 Aspergillus sp.를 복합 발효시켜 동결건조 후, 분쇄하여 실험에 사용하였다. 제조된 발효 콩 분말은 일반분석을 행하였으며, 70% 에탄올로 3회 추출하여 감압농축 후, hexane, chloroform ethyl acetate, butanol 및 aqueous로 분획하여 동결 건조시킨 후, S. typhimurium TA98 및 TA100 균주를 이용한 유전자 복귀 돌연변이 시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 70% 에탄을 추출물과 각각의 분획물 자체의 돌연변이원성은 없었다. 또한 항돌연변이원 실험에서는 발암물질로서 직접 돌연변이원인 4NQO와 MNNG, 간접 돌연변이원인 Trp-P-1을 이용하였다. 특히 이들 발암물질 중 MNNG(0.4 $\mu\textrm{g}$/plate)의 경우 TA100 균주에서 ehtyl acetate 분획물에서 다른 분획물보다 높은 86.6%의 억제 효과를 나타내었으며, 대부분의 분획물에서도 70%이상의 억제효과를 나타내었다. 또한 각 분획물에서 농도 의존적으로 억제효과 역시 높았으며, 분획물에 따라 서로 다른 억제효과를 나타내었다.아 저장할 때 대비 저온저장고에서는 111일 동안에 11.7%의 중량감모가 발생하였으나, 신기술투입 저온저장고에서는 5.6%의 중량감모만이 발생하여 약 50%의 중량감모를 줄일 수 있었으며, 배의 색깔이나 경도도 대비구 보다 우수하였다. 4. 배를 비닐로 포장하여 대비 저온저장고에 저장한 경우와 비닐로 포장하지 않고 신기술투입 저온저장고에 저장한 경우를 비교할 때 11월~다음해 1월 까지는 중량감모, 과피색깔 및 경도에 큰 차이가 없었으나, 2월부터는 비닐로 포장하여 대비 저온저장고에 저장한 배의 품질변화가 급격히 증가되어 중량감모, 과피색깔 및 경도가 신기술 투입시 보다 급속하게 나빠졌다.를 저장 25일 경과시까지 유지하였다. 수확 시 높은 품온을 갖고 있는 과일을 산지에서 예냉 처리를 한 후 저온 냉장차를 이용하여 유통한다면 관행 유통 구조보다 고품질의 포도를 유통시킬 수 있는 것으로 사료되며 앞으로는 완숙된 고 당도(12.0~15.0Bx)$^{\circ}$ 포도를 수확 한 즉시 예냉 처리하고 저온 유통한다면 보다 신선한 과일을 소비자에게 전달 할 수 있을 것이다.갈변물질이 생성되었다. 이와 같은 결과로 볼 때, BAAG의 처리는 BAAC의 경우보다 가격은 저렴하면서도 항균력은 우수한 천연 항균복합제재로써 농산물 식품원료에 적용하여 선도유지 기간을 연장할 수 있는 효과를 기대할 수 있었다. 과일 등의 포장제로서 이용할 가능성을 확인하였다.로 [-wh] 겹의문사는 복수 의미를 지닐 수 없 다. 그러면 단수 의미는 어떻게 생성되는가\ulcorner 본 논문에서는 표면적 형태에도 불구하고 [-wh]의미의 겹의문사는 병렬적 관계의 합성어가 아니라 내부구조를 지니지 않은 단순한 단어(minimal $X^{0}$

Doenjang (Korean soy paste) is one of the popular soybean based fermented foods in Korea. This study investigated the growth and DNA synthesis inhibitory effect of doenjang methanol extracts on AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells, Hep 3B human hepatocellular carcinoma cells and HT-29 human colon cancer cells. In order to determine an anticancer effect of doenjang methanol extracts, other soybean fermented foods and original materials were compared. The treatment of doenjang methanol extracts (200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL) to the AGS, Hep 3B and HT-29 cancer cells inhibited the growth of cancer cells by 80%, 77% and 86%, respectively. Compared to other soybean fermented foods and original materials, doenjang methanol extracts showed the highest growth inhibitory effect on different cancer cells. In addition, doenjang methanol extracts (200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL) significantly inhibited DNA synthesis of AGS and Hep 3B cancer cells by 76% and 59%, respectively. These results suggested that this anticancer effect of doenjang may be due to specific active compounds, which will be newly produced during soybean fermented process and not contained in soybean.

Two Phytase-producing bacteria isolated from the fermented soybean and corn meals, Enterobacter cloacae and Bacillus lichenifomis, were used to investigate the degradation of phytic acid and changes of some nutrient contents in fermented soybean and corn meals. The pH in fermented soybean meal with E, cloacae was rapidly dropped after 48 hours, but the pH in fermented corn meal was declined gradually for 5 days. The degradation of phytic declined acid were optimized at $35^{\circ}C$.pH 8.0 for 5 days and at $30^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0 for 5 days fermented with E. cloacae and B. iichenifomis, respectively. Riboflavin and vitamin $B_{12}$ contents were greatly increased after the fermentation with these two bacteria, and also available lysine, methionine and tryptophan contents were greatly increased.

Soybeans were fermented with Monascus sp. to select strain with highest mevinolin production through solidstate fermentation. Monascus pilosus IFO 480 showed highest yield of 2.2 mg mevinolin per g dry weight without citrinin, toxic fungal secondary metabolite, as byproduct. Nutrient broth used for soybean fermentation with Monascus sp. was composed of 3.4 rice powder, 1.1 peptone, 2.6 glycine, 12.9 glucose, initial pH 6.0 (%, w/v). Mevinolin was present in fermentation substrate largely as hydroxy carboxylate form (open lactone, 91.8-96.8%), which is used as hypocholesterolemic agent. Production of mevinolin continued up to 50 days fermentation time at $30^{\circ}C$.
