Most of cosmetics are emulsion-type products which contain the sources of nutrition, i.e., vegetable oil, mineral oil and carbohyrate etc.. These additives are usually very susceptible to the contamination by microorganisms. The purpose of this study is to obtain the data necessary not only to prevent dermalopathia occurred by microbials but also to maintain the quality. In this experiment we observed the growth of P.aeruginosa in the cosmetics with or without antiseptics so as to prevent contamination. During the contamination period, the phase became unstable and creaming phenomina was happened together with some discoloration and bad smell. The pH of cosmetic was decreased from 7.6 to 6.0 and the concentration was increased from 1.443 to 1.453 in terms of refractive index during 40 days incubation. By adding antiseptics to the cosmetics, the number of P. aeruginosa from the challenge test method were decreased from $10^8$ cell/ml to $5{\times}10^3$ cell/ml. For the antibacterial effect against P. aeruginosa, p-hydroxy benzoic acid propyl ester in phosphoric acid buffer solution showed the best result.

Quality of three kinds of honey from acacia, chestnut and polyflower sources, was evaluated by physicochemical and GC-MS analysis in respect to some chemical composition. The average contents of moisture, ash, HMF(hydroxy methyl furfurol) and free acidity were 19.7% , 0.028% , 18.28mg/kg and 8.85meq/kg , respectively, in acacia honey, 19.1% , 0.05% , 18.47mg/kg and 10.24 meq/kg , respectively, in polyflower honey, and 18.9% , 0.050% , 20.21mg/kg, 12.28meq/kg respectively, in chestnut honey. The average contents of glucose and fructose ranged from 31.0 to 32.0% and from 35.0 to 36.0% , respectively, in all three kinds of honey. The average ratio of fructose to glucose was 1.14 in all three kinds of honey. Fatty acid composition in honey identified by GC-MS analysis was dodecanoic acid, 10-hydroxy-2-decanoic acid, 6,9-undecadienoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, 12-(acetyl oxy) -9-octadecenoic acid and 14-octadecenoic acid. The content of 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid was about 10% in three kinds of honey.

The hydroxydation of the saturated fatty acids in order to prepare hydroxy fatty acids in the presence of catalysts was reported by several workers. The considering commercial applications of this reaction, authors studied on the hydroxydation of natural fats composed of nonhydroxy saturated fatty acids. Tallow and stearic acid were tested with manganese dioxide as catalyst, $110 {\pm}3^{\circ}C,$ and under atmospheric oxygen. The highest hydroxyl values were obtained at 20 hours for tallow, 107.6 and at 14 hours for stearic add, 116.0.

The purpose of this study was to discern the critical point in skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation by changing plasma free fatty acids (FFA) level in rat. In the study, 3 key steps in lipid oxidation were examined after changing plasma FFA level by acipimox. The rates of both palmitate and palmitoylcarnitine oxidation were decreased by decrease of plasma FFA level, however, carnitine palmitoyl transferase (CPT) 1 activity was not changed, suggesting CPT1 activity may not be involved in the fatty acid oxidation at the early phase of plasma FFA change. In the fasted rats, ${\beta}-hydroxy$ acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (${\beta}$-HAD) activity was depressed to a similar extent as palmitate oxidation by a decrease of plasma FFA level. This suggested that ${\beta}-oxidation$ might be an important process to regulate fatty acid oxidation at the early period of plasma FFA change. Citrate synthase activity was not altered by the change of plasma FFA level. In conclusion, the critical step in fatty acids oxidation of skeletal muscles by the change of plasma FFA level by acipimox in fasting rats might be the ${\beta}-oxidation$ step rather than CPT1 and TCA cycle pathways.

Albizzia julibrissin Durazz (Leguminosae) is a small domed to flat-topped, spreading tree with smooth. gray-brown bark and doubly pinnate leaves. It grows abundantly in Korea. The dried stem bark of A. julibrissin is used as a tonic in China, Japan and Korea. From the stem bark of A. ju/ibrissin, a new unsaturated hydroxy fatty acid was isolated and characterized as 4-hydroxy-dodec-2E-enedioic acid on the basis of several data including 2D-NMR. (omitted)

A lot of waterlogged shrouds and mummies have been found in tombs revered with lime of the Chosun Dynasty(1392-1910) of Korea. Shrouds were heavily polluted with greyish white material. Greyish white material, which adhered to shrouds excavated from tombs(16C and 17C), was submitted to FT-IR qualitative analysis and fatty acid analysis for cleaning. The results of the FT-IR qualitative analysis identified the main ingredient of the greyish white material as calcium salt of fatty acid, including a little of the fatty acids, lipids and proteins. Therefore the greyish white material fumed out adipocere which was formed from the degradation of the lipids in a dead body. From the fatty acid analysis, hydroxy fatty acids(10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid and 10-Hydroxyoctadecanoic acid), which were found in adipocere, were detected. The distribution of contents of fatty acids was also rimilar to that of adipocere which have a high proportion of palmitic acid of saturated fatty acid and a low proportion of oleic arid of unsaturated fatty acid. In view of the results of analyses, it was revealed that greyish white material adhered to shrouds was adipocere moved from a mummy.

Rice cultivars of Goami2 (G2), Baegjinju (BJJ), and Sulgaeng (SG) with different amylose contents were developed by mutation breeding via N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) treatment to Ilpumbyeo (IP), high japonica rice. They were identified by different appearances such as grain size, color, and shape. In this experiment, the compositional and physical qualities of those cultivars were examined. The G2 rice classified as a high-amylose rice cultivar was significantly higher in its non-digestable carbohydrates contents. Linoleic and oleic acid were composed of 70~75% of all fatty acids composition regardless of milled and brown rice, except G2 rice in which palmitic acid was the major fatty acid followed by linoleic acid and oleic acid in order. Major amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and hydroxy lysine. It was found that cysteine contents were higher in the cultivars of endosperm mutant rice. The DSC analysis revealed that enthalpy was the highest in BJJ followed by SG, IP, and G2 rice. The lowest enthalpy of G2 might be attributable to the higher amylose content. Ilpumbyeo in its cooked rice form showed the highest in Toyo value and less in hardness, but G2 was vise versa. Results of gelatinization and cooked rice properties suggest that G2 was less suitable for cooked rice, but has a potential for functional ingredients from nutritional point of view. The BJJ and SG could be used for traditional cooking as well as for processed foods.

Cerebrosides were isolated from soybean, deunjang and chungkukjang and their constituents were investigated. The principal fatty acid of soybean cerebroside was 2-hydroxy-palmitic acid but chungkukjang cerebroside consisted palmitic acid, elaidic acid(trans 18:1), oleic acid and stearic acid. The only sugar in cerebrosides was glucose. TLC analysis of cerebroside hydrolysate elucidated soybean and chungkukjang had same sphingold bases, mainly dihydroxy bases, trans-4, trans-sphingadienine. But, alkali stable glycolipid fractions of chungkukjang and deunjang had $2{\sim}3$ different primary amines.
