The effect of cooking(boiling, steaming and baking0and drying on the cholesterol content and formation of oxidized cholesterols in quid(Japanese flying squid, Todarodes pacificus) was studied. Cholesterol content of live squid meat varied with the portion sampled, and results from spectrophotometric assay ranged from 263.2mg/1..g(mantle) to 315.8mg/100g(tentacle). The cholesterol levels analyzed by gas chromatography(GC) for squid samples were lower by 7% of total cholesterol for live squid meat and 24% for processed meat than those results by spectrophotometric assay. Cooking resulted in the decrease of the initial total cholesterol content of raw meat from 10%(boiling for 5min.) to 25%(steaming for 5min.) The amounts of cholesterol remaining after baking were 68% for microwave oven samples and 64% for convection oven samples. Drying of raw tissue caused the greater reduction in cholesterol content than cooking but showed no significant difference in samples stored for 6 weeks at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 2$0^{\circ}C$. Raw squid meats contained essentially no oxidized cholesterols, while the 22-hydroxychoesterol was detected in frozen meats. The additional oxidized cholesterols as cholestane-triol was indentified with 22-hydroxycholesterols in cooked samples. Sun dried meat stored at 4一 and 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 6 weeks had the three kinds of oxidized cholesterols such as 22-hydroxycholesterol, cholesta-3,5-dien-7-one and cholestane-triol.

In this study, the small strain shear moduli ($G_{max}$) of uncemented and gypsum-cemented sands are evaluated by performing a series of bender element tests on the specimens reconstituted in the calibration chamber. It is observed from the experimental results that $G_{max}$ of crushed-sands is about 35~50% smaller than that of natural sands. The increase in gypsum content is observed to result in an exponential increase of $G_{max}$ value. It is also shown that the relative density has more significant effect on $G_{max}$ of cemented sand, whereas the vertical effective stress has more significant influence on $G_{max}$ of uncemented one. A prediction equation for cemented sand is expressed as a function of gypsum content as well as void ratio and vertical effective stress.

To evaluate processing suitability of lipoxygenase (LOX)-free genotype soybeans (Jinyang, 05C4 and LS), quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of their Doenjang products were compared to those of Doenjang made from Taekwang soybean (LOX-present) as the control. Moisture and crude protein contents of Doenjang were significantly higher in LS than the control. Crude lipid content was not significantly different and was in the range of 7.92~8.22% in all samples. Carbohydrate content was significantly lower in LS than Taekwang. Content of reducing sugar in Doenjang was significantly higher in Jinyang than Taekwang. Contents of amino-type nitrogen were significantly higher in LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. Colors of 05C4 and LS Doenjang were not different compared to that of Taekwang, whereas Jinyang Doenjang showed a noticeable color difference. Taekwang Doenjang had a slightly stronger savory taste than another sample. LOX-free cultivars had a strong salty taste. Flavor was the strongest in LS, whereas overall acceptability showed little difference among all samples. The total amino acid content was slightly higher in Jinyang and 05C4 than Taekwang, and content of essential amino acids was higher in Doenjang from LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. Isoflavon content was significantly higher in Doenjang ($522.16{\sim}684.46{\mu}g/g$) made from LOX-free cultivars than in Taekwang ($374.79{\mu}g/g$). Total phenol content was significantly higher in 05C4 and LS, and flavonoid content was significantly higher in LS than Taekwang. Antioxidant activities were highest in Jinyang based on DPPH radical scavenging and reducing power. ABTS radical scavenging activity was significantly higher in Doenjang made from LOX-free cultivars than Taekwang. These results suggest that Doenjang from LOX-free cultivars could have a suitable genotype for Doenjang processing since it is more effective in terms of amino acids, isoflavone contents, and antioxidant activity.

The purpose of the present study is to provide preliminary data for turning sweetpotato leaves into dehydrated vegetables. To achieve this goal, we have gone through the process of hot-air drying the leaves of sweetpotato that are usually thrown away and examined the drying speed and rehydration resilience, then made a comparative analysis of the general ingredients, lutein, $\beta$-carotene and chromaticity. The drying speed reached the peak at a temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. As for other general ingredients, there was no significant difference according to temperature. The content of lutein, which is a functional ingredient, was large in Shinmi with $171.59{\mu}g/g$ at a temperature of $40^{\circ}C$; small in Hayanmi with $73.75{\mu}g/g$ at a temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. The content of $\beta$-carotene was large in Shinmi with $379.59{\mu}g/g$ at a temperature of $40^{\circ}C$; small in Hayanmi with $170.78{\mu}g/g$ at a temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. The content of functional materials was the largest at a temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, and decreased in the order of temperatures at $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$. As for rehydration stability, rehydration rate in both Shinmi and Hayanmi was the highest at a temperature of $40^{\circ}C$ with 233.93% and 223.47% respectively. To summarize, the quality of dried sweet potato leaf was more affected by temperature than by drying time, and low temperature drying resulted in better product value.

In this study, the quality characteristics of eight kinds of non-sterilized commercial makgeolli were investigated. The alcohol contents of five kinds of makgeolli were determined to be as follows: 5.7~5.8%, G $6.7{\pm}0.1%$, D $6.8{\pm}0.2%$, and C $7.5{\pm}0.1%$. As for the titratable acidity, makgeolli C and D showed higher than 0.5%, H showed $0.49{\pm}0.02%$, and the rest showed 0.45% or less. For the pH levels, there were no significant differences among the samples. The reducing-sugar content was approximately 200 mg%, and those of makgeolli A and F were lower by approximately 90 mg%. As for the organic acids, malic acid was detected only in makgeolli A and G while the acetic-acid content was high in makgeolli C and D. Concerning free sugars, fructose and sucrose were not detected, and the glucose content of makgeolli G was shown to be the highest ($335.1{\pm}40.3$ mg%). The maltose contents were similar ($23.5{\pm}1.0{\sim}45.0{\pm}1.1$ mg%), except for makgeolli G, whose maltose content was $73.5{\pm}1.8$ mg%. For the alcoholic ingredients, 0.4~0.5 mg/mL 1-propanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, and iso-amylalcohol were detected, a suitable table wine standard. Further studies involving the quality analysis of the leavening agents, fermentation conditions, and fermentation types are needed.

Packaged Backsulgi cooked by steam/convection oven and then rapidly chilled was examined by research of microbiological test and sensory evaluation while storing them at the temperatures of 3$^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 0, 2, 4, 6, 10 days . The pH and reducing sugar content were seemed to change little at 3$^{\circ}C$. However the pH was rapidly reduced until 4 days and then decreased a little at 3$0^{\circ}C$, the reducing sugar content was inclosed little by little. In the microbiological test, any microbial growth in total aerobic, psychrophilic, anaerobic, spore forming bacteria, yeast and molds was not observed until 10 days at 3$^{\circ}C$, but microbial changes of aerobic, psychrophilic and anaerobic bacteria increased to 6 logCFU/g until 10 days at 3$0^{\circ}C$. However microbial changes of them decreased from 6 logCFU/g to 5 logCFU/g. As a result of the sensory evaluation, appearance, taste, color, softness, chewiness and overall Quality were significantly decreased during storage times(p<0.05), but scores of taste and overall quality on 6th days were 7.38${\pm}$1.06, 7.00${\pm}$0.93. Therefore we concluded that there was no problem about stability of storage 6 days at 3$^{\circ}C$.

Although classical metabolic engineering strategies have succeeded in developing microbial strains capable of producing desired bioproducts, metabolic imbalance resulting from extensive genetic manipulation often leads to decreased productivity. Thus, abiotic strategies for improving microbial production performance can be an alternative to overcome drawbacks arising from intensive metabolic engineering. Herein, we report a promising abiotic method for enhancing lycopene production by UV-C irradiation using a radiation-resistant ΔcrtLm/crtB+dxs+ Deinococcus radiodurans R1 strain. First, the onset of UV irradiation was determined through analysis of the expression of 11 genes mainly involved in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway in the ΔcrtLm/crtB+dxs+ D. radiodurans R1 strain. Second, the effects of different UV wavelengths (UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C) on lycopene production were investigated. UV-C irradiation induced the highest production, resulting in a 69.9% increase in lycopene content [64.2 ± 3.2 mg/g dry cell weight (DCW)]. Extended UV-C irradiation further enhanced lycopene content up to 73.9 ± 2.3 mg/g DCW, a 95.5% increase compared to production without UV-C irradiation (37.8 ± 0.7 mg/g DCW).

This study investigated the nutritional properties and biological activities of Ganoderma lucidum (GL). The round type of GL contained higher carbohydrate content, while the Nokgak type of GL contained higher crude ash, crude fat, and crude protein content. The most abundant amino acid, fatty acid, mineral, and soluble vitamin observed were valine (round type: 11.90 mg/g and Nokgak type: 17.18 mg/g), linoleic acid (round type: 47.56% and Nokgak type: 75.68%), potassium (round type: 116.50 mg/100 g and Nokgak type: 184.36 mg/100 g), and vitamin B3 (round type: 1.78 mg/100 g and Nokgak type: 1.81 mg/100 g), respectively. In addition, the ${\beta}$-glucan content were 34.15 g/100 g (round type) and 30.07 g/100 g (Nokgak type). The GL 70% ethanol extract at $40^{\circ}C$ showed higher radical scavenging as well as carbohydrate and lipid enzyme inhibition than other conditions. At 1 mg/mL of treatment with the 70% ethanol extract at $40^{\circ}C$ of round type GL, the DPPH, ABTS, hydroxyl radical scavenging, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, ${\alpha}$-amylase, and pancreatic lipase inhibition activities obtained were approximately 92.85, 99.74, 58.09, 89.68, 44.68, and 67.56%, respectively.

The quality characteristics of semi-dry red pepper (SDRP) (Capsicum annuum L.) were compared with raw and dry red pepper (DRP). Raw red pepper was divided into pieces and the semi-drying treatment involved air-drying at $65^{\circ}C$. The study focused on describing the characteristics of semi-dry red pepper in comparison with dry red pepper. Factors considered were reduced drying period, ASTA color, capsanthin, capsaicinoids, free sugars and vitamin C content. ASTA color, capsanthin, capsaicinoids, free sugars and vitamin C content of SDRP were higher in SDRP than in DRP for 15 g or less water per 100 g. Red pepper powders made using the semi-drying method showed the highest amount of glucose and vitamin C. Capsanthin content in SDRP (151.6155.9 mg/100 g) was significantly higher than for DRP (133.4 mg/100 g). The capsaicinoid content of SDRP was about 13-25% higher than in DRP. The ASTA values (148.7159.3) for SDRP were much higher than for DRP (139.5). The vitamin C and free sugar content of SDRP was 40-76% and 20-40% higher, respectively, than for DRP. and $20{\sim}40%$, respectively, by SDRP compared to DRP.
