This study examined the manufacturing characteristics of sweet potato doenjang in order to gain a more efficient use of the sweet potato. Sweet potato(Sinwhangmi, Sinjami) koji(mixed sweet potato paste and soybean powder in a ratio of 1:1) was cultured with Aspergillus oryzae KCCM 11372 at $35^{\circ}C$ for 48 h. Sweet potato doenjang was fermented for 60 days using a sweet potato koji(20%, 45%) and steamed soybean(70%, 45%), with salt accounting for 10%. The glutamic acid content was determined to be much higher in sweet potato doenjang using Sinwhangmi koji(45%) and steamed soybean (45%), than that of general doenjang. The DPPH radical scavenging activity has the largest $EC_{50}$(0.9 mg) in sweet potato doenjang using Sinjami potatoes 45%. Sensory evaluation indicated a good preference for sweet potato doenjang using Sinwhangmi(45%) and steamed soybean(45%).

The mashes of soybean paste were preparea using the conventional meju fermented naturally by wild microoganisms or the new types of meju fermented by pure cultures of Aspergillus oryzae, Bacillus natto and B. subtilis to elucidate changes during the aging period. The results obtained are as follows ; The soybean paste made with conventional meiu and Asp. oryzae meju showed higher content of amino nitrogen than those of B, natto and B. subtilis meju. Soybean paste made with conventional meju contained a little more content of total and reducing sugars than other soybean pastes. ph during aging period was higher than 5.0 for the Asp. oryzae paste while less than 4.5 for B. subtilis paste. Aspartic acid. threonine, serine, glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, cystine, valine, methionne, leucine and histidine for Asp. oryzae paste ; tyrosine, arginine and proline for conventional meju paste; and isoleucine and phenylalanine for B. subtilis paste were found to be peak amount 90 days after the preparation. The content of total free amino acid was high in the order of Asp. oryzae paste, conventional paste, B. natto paste and B. subtilis paste.

This study evaluated the effects of dietary inclusion of soybean (SM) and fermented soybean meal (FSM) on growth promotion in juvenile abalone Haliotis discus. Six hundred and thirty juvenile abalone were distributed into nine plastic containers. Three diets were prepared with 22% fish meal, 2% casein, and either 25% SM or FSM used as the protein sources in the experimental diets, and Undaria was used as a control diet to compare the effects of the experimental diets on the growth performance of abalone. The diets were assigned to three containers each and fed to the abalone once daily to satiation for 16 weeks. Weight gain and specific growth rate (SGR) were higher in abalone fed the SM diet than in those fed the FSM diet. Weight gain and SGR of abalone fed the SM and FSM diets were higher than those of abalone fed Undaria. The crude protein and lipid contents of the edible portions of abalone fed the SM and FSM diets were higher than those of abalone fed Undaria. SM was superior to FSM as a protein source in abalone feed. The SM and FSM diets facilitated greater growth than Undaria.

The objective of this study was to improve the qualities of Saengsik (substitute meal formulated with uncooked cereal powder) such as functionality, safety and sensory preference by using Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB). The optimum formulation of fermented Saengsik (substitute meal) was verified as $40\%$ of fermented brown rice, $13\%$ of fermented job tears, $5\%$ of yellow soybean, $5\%$ of waxy rice, $5\%$ of sorghum, $3\%$ of Seumok bean, $1\%$ of sesame, $3\%$ of barley, $2\%$ of red bean, $5\%$ of prosomillet, $2\%$ of foxtail millet, $9%$ of black rice, $3\%$ of buckwheat, $1\%$ of chestnut, $2\%$ of pumpkin, $3\%$ of peanut. Fermented Saengsik decreased significantly serum glucose in STZ-induced diabetic rats. However, serum lipid levels were not affected by fermented Saengsik. In rats fed with high-fat diet, serum triglyceride level was slightly decreased and the contents of liver triglyceride were significantly decreased by supplementation of fermented Saengsik.

This study was investigated to find out optimal medium maximizing the production of fibrinolytic enzyme by Bacillus sp. isolated from Korean fermented soybean paste, which could hydrolyze the fibrin produced through the blood coagulation mechanism in human body. Among carbon sources tested, galactose was most effective for the enzyme production, and the level of the concentration for the optimal enzyme production was $4\%$(w/v). For nitrogen sources tested, malt extract was most effective for the enzyme production, and level of the concentration for optimal enzyme production was $4\%$(w/v). For mineral sources tested, $K_2HPO_4$ was most effective for enzyme production. The enzyme was maximally produced by cultivating the organism at the liquid medium of the initial pH 6 and temperature of $40^{\circ}C$.

The objectives of present study were to characterize the peptides which were isolated from Korean fermented soybean paste, chungkukjang, and to determine their antioxidant activities. Four fractions were collected from the methanol extract of chungkukjang by using a recycling preparative HPLC. Among fractions, Fr-2 was identified to be highly potent free radical scavenging activity in the assay of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and nitroblue tetrazolium(NBT)-reduction inhibition. Base on antioxidant effects, fraction Fr-2 was employed for the refraction with a prep-column and separated into five fractions of which two fractions were identified to have higher antioxidant activity. To confirm the amino acid constituents of antioxidant fractions Fr-2-2 and Fr-2-3 were analyzed, and eight kinds of amino acids such as aspartic acid, threonine, serine, glutamic acid, glycine, lysine, histidine, and arginine were identified as the constituent amino acids. Antioxidant activities of the separated peptides were further assessed cell viability with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl terazolium bromide (MTT), and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis of H4IIE cells treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Chungkukjang peptides have shown their ability to protect H4IIE rat hepatoma cells against H2O2- induced oxidative stress by concentration and time-dependent manner. Therefore, These results indicated that fermented soybean paste chungkukjang will be promoted the antioxidant and radical scavenging activities, and beneficial for health. The antioxidant peptide fractions Fr-2-2 and Fr-2-3 were denominated as P-NICS-1 and P-NICS-2, respectively. However, further studies were required to clarify their amino acid sequences and molecular properties, and physiological significances.
