This study was investigated to evaluate the feasibility of protein concentrate for human food from ginseng leaf. The protein concentrate was prepared from ginseng green leaf by treating with cold acetone , followed by protein extraction with 0.2% NaOH containing 0.5% 2-mercaptoethanol and 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate. Proximate composition of the ginseng leaf protein concentrate (LPC) showed that fat and ash was less than 1%, protein was about 75%, total sugar and total saponin was 5% and 1.2%, respectively. As compared to the provisional amino acid pattern reported by FAO/WHO, ginseng LPC was found to be poor in S-containing amino acids, which were the first limiting amino acid. The amino acid score and E/T ratio of ginseng LPC were 43.1 and 3.02, respectively. Digestibility of ginseng LPC by pepsin and trypsin was lower than that of milk casein.

We studied active substances like crude cell wall components, crude protein, composing amino acids and free amino acids including orinithine cycle-related amino acids such as asparagine, ornithine and citrullin in fully ripe fruits of Korean native squash, Cucurbita moschata Poir. Crude protein content of 'Jeju 2' was the highest with $2,830\;{\mu}g/g$, while 'Sangju' was the lowest with $1,319\;{\mu}g/g$. Regarding the contents of crude cell wall components, fruit 'Kanghaw' was the highest with 2,961 mg% while 'Namhea' was the lowest with 1,582 mg%. Pectin contents of crude cell wall components were the highest in 'Kanghaw' (2,198 mg%) followed by 'Jeju 2' (2,178 mg%) and 'Jeju l' (1,461 mg%). The main contents of amino acids in squash were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, leucine and valine, which comprised to be more than 50% of total amino acid contents. Especially, in 'Jeju 2' aspartic acid and threonine were not detected. In fully ripe fruits, a total of 34 kinds of free amino acids were detected including 8 kinds of essential amino acids (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, methionine, threonine and valine). More than 50% of the total free amino acids were aspartic acid and asparagine, and also all varieties were detected in ornithine, citrullin, and arginine, which are related to Ornithine cycle. There was a big difference in the contents of arginine in all varieties whereas the contents of ornithine and citrullin were very similar. 'Teaan' 29.34% was 7 times higher than 'Namhea' 4.30% in regards to arginine contents.

The protein content of seed meal were examined to evaluate genotypes of higher protein content from 164 peanut germplasms. The variations in amino acids content were investigated from nine Korean leading varieties grown at five locations. Amino acids contents of protein fractions were also ana lysed in the present study, too. The results of the study were summarized as fallows. The seed protein of 164 peanut varieties averaged 24.5% ranging from 19.5% to 28.7%, showed 9.2% varietal variation in proteins. Differences were not observed in protein content between plant types, however, protein contents were higher in small-seeded than large seeded varieties. The differences were more greater particulaly in Spanish type varieties. The varieties introduced from Taiwan and Philippine showed higher protein contents, and the cultivars or lines bred in Korea and introduced from Japan were lower in protein contents. protein contents showed non-significantly negative correlations with 100-kernel weight and pod weight per plant, but positive correlations were observed between oil and protein content in all types of peanuts. Significant differences among the varieties and locations were observed for total, essential and non-essential amino acids contents, and aspartic acid. Locational differences for arginine, lysine, methionine, threonine, glutamic acid, glycine and tyrosine, and varietal difference for phenylalanene were revealed as significant. The limiting amino acids from the leading varieties were isoleucine, methionine, threonine, alanine and tyrosine, comparing with FAO recommanding levels of amino acids. Among the protein fractions prolamins was the highest in total amino acids, but essential amino acids was the highest in globulins

The present study provides nutritional characteristics of body composition based on the different collected locations and body sizes in wild eels, Anguilla japonica. Eels were collected in Kyungho river, near the Sachun bay (Gyeongnam) and Inchun river, near Gochang, Jeonnam. Eels were divided by size into the following groups: less than 100 g (Gochang: 75.8$\pm$17.6 g, Sachun: 89.3$\pm$6.42 g) and more than 200 g group (Gochang: 215$\pm$8.95 g, Sachun: 236$\pm$11.7 g). The moisture content of individuals in Gochang area (Gw) was higher than that in Sacheon area (Sw). In the results of proximate analysis, the ranges of moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash were 63∼72, 16∼20, 6.1∼15.4 and 2.2∼2.8%, respectively. Moisture and crude fat were significantly different (P<0.05) based on the captured locations. In fatty acid composition, the ranges of saturates, monoenes, polyenes, and n-3 PUFA content were 38.0∼48.0, 51.5∼58.5, 1.95∼4.12 and 0.68∼1.53%, respectively. It was significantly different (P<0.05) based on the captured locations. In the amino acid composition, the ranges of essential and non-essential amino acids were 7.11∼12.5 and 8.34∼ 12.9%, respectively. These values were not significantly different (P>0.05) based on the captured locations, however these were significant different (P<0.05) based on their body weight. Therefore, these results indicated that the different body composition depends on the different captured locations and body sizes. Furthermore, it is necessary to examine more varied locations and body sizes for their body composition in eels.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of ion water and premixed mineral supplementation on the growth performance, carcass, and meat quality parameters in finishing pigs (LY$\times$D). Each 20 pigs were randomly allotted to three treatments; CON (basal diet), T1 (CON diet added active water), T3 (T1 diet added 1.0% premixed mineral). Used ion water and premixed mineral consisted mainly of Zn and Si, respectively. Cholesterol content (mg% meat) were not differ significantly in the samples, however, the ratios of cholesterol to fat in T1 and T2 was significantly lower than the control (p<0.05). The fatty acid qualities of palmitic acid, linoleic acid, arachidonic acid, SFA (saturated fatty acid), EFA (essential fatty acid), and EFA/UFA ratio were the highest significantly, however, those of the oleic acid, UFA (unsaturated fatty acid), and UFA/SFA ratio were the lowest significantly in T2 (p<0.05). The amino acid levels of glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, lysine, total amino acids, and EAA (essential amino acid) were the highest in T1 (p<0.05). Whereas, the levels of serine, valine, isoleucine were the highest in T2 (p<0.05). The results indicate that dietary ionized water and premixed mineral affects fatty acid composition and improves amino acid composition.

불포화지방산이 풍부한 오리고기는 예로부터 보양식으로 많은 사랑을 받았다. 오리고기가 기력을 회복하는 음식으로 널리 알려진 이유는 필수 아미노산과 레시틴이라는 성분이 풍부하기 때문이다. 아미노산은 근력 향상에 도움을 주고 신체 능력을 강화하며 피로 해소에도 탁월한 역할을 한다고 알려지며, 레시틴이 부족할 경우 피로를 느끼고 면역력이 저하되기 때문에 꾸준하게 섭취를 해주는 것이 중요하다. 오리에 풍부한 비타민A는 체내 병균 저항력을 높여준다. 또한 면역 세포의 기능을 촉진해 감염 질환이 걸리지 않게 몸을 보호하는 역할을 한다. 특히 비타민A가 부족하면 호흡기계 질환이 걸리기 쉬우므로 호흡기 건강에 신경을 쓴다면 평소 비타민A가 풍부한 음식을 먹는 게 좋다. 또한 오리고기에 풍부한 리놀레산은 성장기에 꼭 필요한 필수 지방산으로 인체 기능에 꼭 필요한 요소다. 다른 육류에 비해 열량이 낮고 단백질이 풍부해 다이어트를 할 때도 부담없이 즐길 수 있는 오리고기 신제품을 소개한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in physicochemical properties of Spergularia marina Griseb by blanching. The proximate composition, free sugar, free amiao acid, organic acid, vitamin and mineral composition of raw and blanching Spergularia marina Griseb were compared. After blanching treatment, the moisture and carbohydrate contents of Spergularia marina Griseb increased, but the crude protein, crude fat and crude ash contents decreased. Total free sugar content decreased by 62.50% compared with raw Spergularia marina Griseb after blanching, and the reduction of galactose was the largest in free sugars. The raw and blanched Spergularia marina Griseb contained all the essential amino acids, except tryptophan. The total amino acid and essential amino acid contents were reduced by blanching, but the essential amino acid ratios of the raw and blanched Spergularia marina Griseb were similar. The amounts of all the detected organic acids were reduced by blanching, except acetic acid. Spergularia marina Griseb was found to contain high levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and minerals, but these were reduced by blanching. These results showed that most of the nutrients contained by Spergularia marina Griseb are decrease by blanching. Therefore, the blanching conditions that can reduce nutrient loss of Spergularia marina Griseb must be established.

The current work was carried out to investigate the effect of crossbred Korean native chickens (KNC) on fatty acid, amino acid and nucleotide-related compounds contents of chicken meat. A total of 360 male chicks (1d of age) was used in this work and were divided 4 groups as A) (KNC egg-meat type C strains ${\times}$ KNC meat type S strains) ${\times}$ Ross broiler, B) (KNC egg-meat type C strains ${\times}$ KNC meat type H strains) ${\times}$ KNC meat type S strains, C) (KNC native R strains ${\times}$ KNC meat type S strains) ${\times}$ KNC meat type H strains and D(White Semibroiler Chickens) strains for 5 weeks at the flat house. Palmitic acid and vaccenic acid were highest in C strain meat, and myristic acid and linolenic acid were lowest in A strain meat (p<0.05). Saturated fatty acid was lowest in C strain meats (p<0.05). Valine, leucine, phenylalanine and lysine of essential acid were low in A strain meat. Cystine, aspartic acid, glycine, alanine and proline were also low in A strain meat. Hypoxanthin (Hx) was high compared other strains at 5 weeks and low at 10 weeks. IMP was high compared other strains at 5 and 10 weeks. AMP has not significant difference among strains at 5 weeks but B strain was high other strains at 10 weeks. These results showed that C stain was excellent on the fact of nutrients compared to other strains. Consequently, the result of this work gave the basic data that needed to develope the new strains.
