We investigated the effect of tea fungus/kombucha beverage(TF) on the body weights, the blood glucose levels, lipid and protein concentrations, and enzyme activities in diabetic female rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were fed drinking water supplemented with 20% or 40% TF groups, respectively for 7 weeks. The female rats (mean weight 155.5$\pm$9.3 g) were assigned to one control and three diabetic groups. Diabetic groups were divided into diabetic control (TF free water), 20% or 40% TFD groups (20% or 40% TF in water) according to the levels of TF supplementation. Diabetes was experimentally induced by intraperitonially administration of streptozotocin in citrate buffer(pH 4.3) after 2 weeks feeding of four experimental water. Animals were sacrificed at the 5 weeks of diabetic state. The diabetic groups showed significantly decrease of body weight(6.8-7.5 g) compared with the control group(48.3 g). The hepatic, kidney and pancreatic weights of 20% or 40% TFD groups were not significantly different with D-control group. The fasting serum glucose level were higher in all diabetic groups than that of the control group. The concentrations of serum triglyceride in 40% TFD group and serum LDL-cholesterol in 20% TFD group were significantly decreased compared with the D-control group. The concentrations of serum total cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio, and atherogenic index in 20% or 40% TFD groups were similar to those in D-control group. The concentrations of hepatic triglyceride in 20% or 40% TFD groups were significantly decreased compared with the D-control group, but the concentrations of hepatic cholesterol and phospholipid were similar to all diabetic groups. The concentrations of serum and hepatic total protein, serum albumin, and the activities of GOT, GPT and LDH in the serum were the same levels of all diabetic groups.

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.

Jangsu, a Korean ancient non-alcoholic beverage made by lactic acid fermentation of cooked rice, was prepared and the microbial characteristics were investigated. The periodic removal of fermented product and the addition of newly made cooked rice and cold water as new substrate enhanced the growth of lactic acid forming bacteria but supressed the growth of proteolytic bacteria. The important microorganisms in jangsu were Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Pediococccus and Leuconostoc species. Lactococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus coryniformis and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were identified. The isolated strains were cultivated and used as starter culture of jangsu. Some useful strains were selected which were able to produce acceptable flavor and sufficient amount of acid lowering the pH to near 4.0.

Smoking is well known to be associated with increased indices of tree radical-mediated damage of DNA, indicating that smoking may exacerbate the initiation and propagation of oxidative stresses, which are potential underlying processes in the pathogenesis of many diseases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a daily regimen of green vegetable drink supplementation to smokers can be protective against endogenous lymphocytic DNA damage and whether it could enhance other antioxidant status. Twenty nonsmokers and nineteen smokers aged 23-60 were given 240 ml of green vegetable drink every day for 8 weeks in addition to their normal diet, and blood samples were drawn before and after the intervention. The 8 weeks of green vegetable drink consumption resulted in a significant decrease (p = 0.000, by paired t-test) in lymphocyte DNA damage expressed by TL (before: $63.13{\pm}1.05$ vs after: $37.86{\pm}10.83$, before: $66.73{\pm}1.24$ vs after: $36.51{\pm}1.13$), TM (before: $14.55{\pm}0.61$ vs after: $6.61{\pm}0.25$, before: $15.36{\pm}0.45$ vs after: $6.65{\pm}0.38$) and $\%$ DNA in tail (before: $19.7{\pm}0.41$ vs after: $16.6{\pm}0.37$, before: $20.6{\pm}0.31$ vs after: $17.1{\pm}0.5$) in both nonsmokers and smokers respectively. Vitamin C and TRAP level was not significantly changed after the supplementation. In conclusion, these results support the hypothesis that green vegetable drink exert a cancer-protective effect partially via a decrease in oxidative damage to DNA.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activities of natural antimicrobials (10 formulas, $F1{\sim}F10$) against yeasts in functional beverages. The growth rates of yeasts were different with the ten different natural antimicrobial formulas tested. Yeasts grew for 14 days and the antimicrobial effect was observed between 14 and 18 days. Levels of S. cerevisiae, Z. bailii, and P. membranaefaciens were reduced to the limit of detection (ND) < 10 CFU/mL) after 28 days. Resistance against the antimicrobial effect was greatest for P. membranaefaciens, which grew to a level of $0.12{\sim}1.48\;\log_{10}\;CFU$/mL after 14 days and was reduced to a level of $1.61{\sim}3.55\;\log_{10}\;CFU$/mL after 28 days. The resistance of C. albicans was also high with a growth level of $0.13{\sim}1.28\;\log_{10}\;CFU$/mL after 14 days and reduction to $1.51{\sim}5.30\;\log_{10}\;CFU$/mL after 28 days. The antimicrobial effect of F10 was strongest for P. membranaefaciens. Every treatment reduced the microbial levels to $2.68{\sim}5.62\;\log_{10}\;CFU$/mL after 6 months. F2, F4, F5, F6, and F10 reduced the C. albicans level to ND after 28 days while F1, F3, F8, and F9 reduced yeasts to the ND level after 6 months. The antimicrobial activities observed here will be useful for development of natural antimicrobials.
