In this study, the comparison of antioxidative effect of the methanol (MeOH) extracts from grains were investigated in vitro radical scavenging system. Ten grains (black rice, rice, barley, wheat, millet, sorghum, glutinous millet, buckwheat, phellines linteus rice and brown rice) were extracted with MeOH. Among the MeOH extracts of grains, sorghum and black rice showed effective scavenging activities of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. The $IC_{50}$ values of sorghum and black rice were $47.4{\mu}g/mL$ and $50.6{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. In addition, black rice also exerted the strongest activities on hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$) scavenging activity. Furthermore, the MeOH extracts of black rice showed effective and dose dependant scavenging activities of DPPH radical and ${\cdot}OH$. These results indicated that black rice showed strong free radical scavenging activity. It suggested that black rice could be a promising natural antioxidant against free radical-induced oxidative damage.

Various Bam-dduk were prepared by using two kinds of chestnut flour (dried chestnut, boiled chestnut), 2 types of sugar (sugar and honey), and 3 levels of sugar (10, 20, 30 g), and they were evaluated for sensory quality, texture, moisture, and color. The addition of 10∼15% of dried chestnut flour to glutinous rice flour increased the graininess, moistness, chewiness, and sweetness of Bam-dduk, and the addition of 30∼40% boiled chestnut flour increased the graininess, moistness, and sweetness, depending up on the types and levels of sugar. The use of 10% dried chestnut flour and 30 $m\ell$ of honey gave the highest value of springiness in Bam-dduk. Gumminess, hardness and chewiness were the highest with 15％ dried chestnut flour and 20 g sugar. Cohesiveness was the strongest at 30% boiled chestnut flour and 10 $m\ell$ honey. Adhesiveness was most proper when 30 g sugar was added to 10％ dried chestnut flour. The use of boiled chestnut flour gave higher moisture content in Bam-dduk (32.2∼41.3%) than the use of dried chestnut flour (29.6∼34.2%). The values of 'L' (67.43) and 'b' (18.07) were most intensive in Bam-ddfik prepared with 15% dried chestnut and 20 g sugar, and the replacement of 20 g sugar with 30 $m\ell$ of honey gave the highest 'a' value, 2.33.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of microorganism inactivation using 3 ppm of aqueous ozone (AO), 1% citric acid, 1% lactic acid, and 1% acetic acid alone, as well as the combinations of AO and organic acid, for washing the raw materials of saengsik (carrot, cabbage, glutinous rice, barley) with or without agitation. The combination of AO and 1% of each organic acid significantly inactivated spoilage bacteria in both the vegetables and the grains (p<0.05). However, in the glutinous rice, no inhibitory effects were shown for total aerobic bacteria by using water, ozone, or the combination of AO with citric acid or lactic acid, without agitation. Microbial inactivation was enhanced with agitation in the grains, whereas dipping (no agitation) treatments showed better inhibitory effects in the vegetables than in the barley, suggesting that washing processes should take into account the type of food material.

Effects of resistant starch as a functional substitute on the quality of Yukwa were determined. Replacement ratios of resistant starch were 2, 4, and 6% of glutinous rice flour. Regarding pasting properties of Yukwa dough replaced with resistant starch, initial pasting temperature significantly increased and peak viscosity significantly decreased with increasing resistant starch. The moisture contents of bandegi and Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch were higher than that of the control. The expansion ratio of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch significantly decreased with increasing resistant starch, and there were no significant differences in the oil absorption ratio. Lightness (L) of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch increased significantly with increasing resistant starch. Appearance of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch showed a shortened length and increased width with increasing resistant starch, and cross-section showed an oval shape, fine air cell distribution, and increased outer layer thickness. Hardness and peak number increased significantly with increasing resistant starch. The overall acceptability of Yukwa base replaced with 6% resistant starch was the highest among the samples, but the result was not significant. The above results show that resistant starch substitution in Yukwa improved the texture and further could improve health functionality due to its dietary fiber content. Resistant starch was appropriate as a 6% replacement for glutinous rice flour in Yukwa.

Taurine content in Korean foods of plant origin was determined for 118 commonly used food items including cereals, potatoes, pulses, nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits. Taurine concentration in food sample was analyzed using an automated amino acid analyzer(Biochrom 20, Pharmacia LKB) based on ion-exchange chromatography. Taurine was frequently detected in plant kingdom in much lower concentrations(1/100~1/1000) than those found in marine lifes and mammals. Glutinous rice, glutinous millent and sorghum did not contain taurine, while 0.7~3.9mg taurine/100g dry wt were detected in rice, barley and their products. Potatoes and sweet potatoes contained 0.3~1.2mg taurine/100g wet wt, and seasame seeds, perilla seeds, almonds, walnuts and gigko nuts contained 0.7~3.0mg taurine/100g wt. Taurine concentration was undetectable in most of the pulses, and in a large number of vegetables. Garlic bulbs, eggplants, green peppers, lotus roots, and cabbages have a relatively high level of taurine(around 1mg taurine/100g wet wt) among vegetables. Taurine was absent or found in very low levels(<1mg taurine/100g wet wt) in most of the commonly used fruits.

Strawberry powder was incorporated into Baikseolgi by substituting the non-glutinous rice flour in the range of 0-8% based on the total weight of the non-glutinous rice flour and the effects on physicochemical and sensory properties were investigated. pH decreased significantly with the higher amount of strawberry powder in the formulation whereas titratable acidity showed a reverse trend (p<0.05). Moisture content also decreased significantly with the increasing amount of strawberry. Lightness ($L^{*}$-value) decreased significantly with higher strawberry powder concentration, indicating that the color of Baikseolgi became dark as also indicated by the visual observation. Redness ($a^{*}$-value) and yellowness ($b^{*}$-value), on the other hand, increased significantly with the substitution of strawberry powders up to 8% (p<0.05). Increases in strawberry powder concentration up to 8% in the Baikseolgi formulation significantly increased the intensities of sensory color, flavor, and taste attributes; on the other hand, the intensities of sensory moistness and chewiness decreased significantly (p<0.05). Results from the consumer test revealed that control received the highest acceptability scores in all attributes but 4% sample also obtained the competitive scores. Finally, Pearson correlation analysis revealed several very highly significant linear correlation between the means used to access physicochemical, sensory properties, and consumer preferences.

Aspergillus niger was selected as a strain producing the potent raw starch hydorlyzing enzyme. These experiments were conducted to investigate the conditions of the glucoa- mylase production, the purification of the enzyme, some characteristics of the purified enzyme and hydrolysis rate on various raw starches such as com, rice, potato, glutinous rice, sweet potato, wheat and barley. The optimum cultural temperature and time for the enzyme production on wheat bran medium were $30^{\circ}C$ and 96hrs, respectively. The respective addition of yeast extract and nutrient broth on wheat bran medium increased slightly the enzyme production. The enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 30.7u/mg-protein and the yield of enzyme activity was 25.8%. The purified enzyme showed a single band on polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis and its molecular weight was estimated to be 56,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point for the purified enzyme was pH3.7. The optimum temperature and pH were $65^{\circ}C$ and pH 4.0, respectively. The purified enzyme was stable in the pH range of pH 3.0-9.5 and below $45^{\circ}C$, and its thermal stability was slightly increased by the addition of $Ca^{2+}$. The purified enzyme was activated by $Co^{2+},\;Sr^{2+},\;Mn^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Cu^{2+}$. Raw rice starch, raw corn starch, raw glutinous rice starch, raw sweet potato starch, raw wheat starch and raw barley starch showed more than 90% hydrolysis rate in 48hrs incubation. Even raw potato starch, most difficult to be hydrolyzed, showed 80% hydrolysis rate. The purified enzyme was identified as glucoamylase.
