In succession to the previous paper, the present study was directed to investigate the optimal processing conditions of meat paste products with mackerel. To improve the gel forming ability of meat paste, washing conditions with water and alkaline solution, setting time and temperature, and heating temperature were controlled, and the influences of the freshness of raw mackerel and mixing ratios of ordinary and dark muscle on the qualities of meat paste products were discussed. The most effective condition for the keeping freshness of raw mackerel meat among different storage conditions was the forozen storage at $-20^{\circ}C$, followed by the storage at $-3^{\circ}C$ and ice storages, and this relation was coincided with the effect for maintaining of gel forming ability among above conditions, but there was no effect on keeping freshness of raw mackerel in the storage at $25^{\circ}C$. Gel strength of meat washed with tap water decreased with washing time, particularly, the meat washed three times showed higher gel strength than the meat washed more than 5 times. And the removal ratios of water soluble protein were $60\%$ in the meat washed three times and $90\%$ in the meat washed nine times. Washing effect of raw mackerel meat with alkaline solution was great at pH $6.5{\sim}7.0$ of meat paste yielding the highest gel strength in the meat washed with $0.5\%$ sodium bicarbonate solution. Gel strength of meat paste product decreased with the increase of mixing ratios of ordinary and dark muscle in the raw meat. In the setting conditions of meat paste examined, 15 hours at $5^{\circ}C$ and 2 hours at $30^{\circ}C$. The most suitable temperature for gel forming in heating conditions was $90^{\circ}C$, fellowed by $100^{\circ}C\;and\;80^{\circ}C$.

For the production of pumpkin paste with respect to heating conditions, we steamed the pumpkin for roughly 15 min, heated it with high pressure treatment for 0 min (A), 10 min (B), 20 min (C), 40 min (D), and subsequently investigated the quality characteristics. Generally a significant difference was observed between the pumpkin paste treated with and without high-pressure heat. The values of water content, crude protein and crude fiber of the high-pressure heat-treated groups B, C, D were decreased compared with untreated group A. The soluble fiber in experimental group B sweet-pumpkin paste treated with high-pressure heat for 20 min was higher than the control, and the highest value at 2.02. Experimental group D sweet-pumpkin paste treated with high-pressure heat for 40 min was found to have a decreased soluble fiber content relative to the control. The L value for the color of the group A untreated control sweet-pumpkin paste (no high-pressure heating) decreased as the time increased from 10 min to 40 min, with L values of 50.33, 49.46, and 48.06, respectively. The b value for the color of the sweet-pumpkin paste also decreased, showing a significant difference. Taking into account all the results, we chose experimental group B in order to prepare sweet-pumpkin latte. We used 0.2% gum (xanthan gum, locust bean gum, guar gum) as a stabilizer. Sweet-pumpkin latte with xanthan and locust bean gum has a suspension stability effect that lasts 90 min. The L and b values of sweet-pumpkin latte with gums increase and a value decrease compared with the control. In terms of the overall acceptance of the sweet-pumpkin latte, the experimental group with xanthan gum scored the best.

In order to establish the quality standard of Jeju traditional Doenjang(soybean paste), general components, free sugar, organic acid, fatty acids, amino acids, and isoflavones contents were analyzed. Moisture, crude ash, crude protein, crude lipid, acid value, pH, and salinity were 37.33~47.43%, 12.75~15.97%, 11.06~14.28%, 0.08~0.53%, 17.83~27.55 mg/g, 4.82~5.12, and 10.66~13.91% respectively. The content of amino type nitrogen was 301.06~573.89 mg%. The compositions of free sugar were glucose (0.81~10.22 mg/g), maltose(0.64~5.28 mg/g), sucrose(0.78~3.86 mg/g), and fructose(0.72~1.11 mg/g). The major organic acid was lactic acid (89.30~180.39 mg/g). Total free amino acids were from 13.89 to 15.51%, which makes no difference between the test samples. Among amino acids, glutamic acid was abundant (2.12~2.55%). The contents of isoflavones were 274.87~431.96 mg/kg, less than those of commercial soybean paste. In fatty acid composition of soybean paste, the most abundant fatty acid was found to be linoleic acid as 61.54~66.79% in Jeju traditional Doenjang. This results might be caused by the differences of brewed periods, microflora, processing methods and used soybean cultivars.

Many operations have been carried out using the fluoride ion to prevent and reverse dental caries. It certainly encourages remineralization and also prevents dental caries. However, the remineralization developed by these means is superficial only leaving lower levels of demineralized lesion with a degree of porosity and incomplete mineralization. We must consider its toxic effects when it is ingested for overdose. The CPP-ACP paste is able to remineralize the incipient lesion and has no harmful effects when it is ingested, because it was made form casein which is from the protein of milk. The purpose of this article is to compare the remineralization effects between APF gel and the CPP-ACP paste. we applicated the APF gel and CPP-ACP paste on the artificial enamel carious lesion. After 14 days, we measured the surface microhardness and observed the remineralized lesion under polarized light microscope. The results were as follows : 1. The surface microhardness of group III was the highest, followed by group II, and I(p<0.05). 2. The surface microhardness of group III was significantly higher than those of group I, and II(p<0.05). 3. We could observe thin and irregular remineralization layer of group II, and regular and moderate remineralization layer of group III under polirized light microscope.

This study was aimed at investigating the physicochemical characteristics of a freeze-dried soybean paste block with sea mustard. In the proximate composition, the crude protein, lipid and ash contents were higher in the product prepared with commercial doenjang than in a green tea product, whereas the carbohydrate content was high in the green tea doenjang than in the commercial product. There was a rich composition of free amino acids, alanine, phenylalanine, hydroxyproline, valine, leucine, isoleucine and lysine in both products. The majoity of the free amino acids were more abundant in the green tea doenjang product than in the commercial doenjang product. There were no differences between the two products in the total saturated, mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The order of the abundance of the fatty acid contents in both products were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. The major of the organic acid in both the commercial soybean paste product and the green tea product was oxalic acid, followed by tartaric acid and citric acid. In the sensory evaluation test, the taste, color and overall acceptability were not significantly different between both products, but the odor was significantly higher in the commercial product than in the green tea product. The freeze-dried doenjang product could be convenient for cooking nutritious sea mustard soup, without tedious preparations for a husband and wife that are both working.

The effects of soy protein isolate (SPI) and red bean protein isolate (RBPI) on gelling properties of pork myofibrillar protein (MP) in the presence of microbial transglutaminase (MTG) were studied at 0.45 M NaCl. MP paste was incubated with MTG (0.1%) at various levels (0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 1%) of SPI and RBPI before incubating at $4^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. The rheological property results showed that MP gel shear stress increased with increasing RBPI concentration. Cooking yield (CY) of the MP gel increased with increasing RBPI and SPI, whereas gel strength (GS) was not affected by adding RBPI or SPI. Thus, effects of incubation time (0, 4, 8, 10, and 12 h) were measured at 0.1% SPI and RBPI. GS values of the MP gel at 10 and 12 h were similar and were higher than those of the others. CY values were highest when RBPI (0.1%) was added, regardless of incubation time. The protein patterns indicated that incubating the MP with MTG for 10 h resulted in protein crosslinking between MP and RBPI or SPI. Based on these results, RBPI and SPI could be used as an ingredient to increase textural properties and cooking yield of meat protein gel.

The levels of biologically active compounds, such as isoflavone, total saponin, dietary fiber, soy oligosaccharides, and lecithin from each serving size of commercial soy products, were quantitatively determined from the raw soybean, soymilk, tofu, isolated soy protein (ISP), soybean paste(toenjang), natto, and tempeh from local and foreign market. Soy flour, natto, and soymilk contained 489.1 mg, 308.3 mg, and 138.1 mg of isoflavone in each 100 g of dry matter, respectively. The ratios of aglycone to glucoside of soybean paste and tempeh showed relatively high level compared with other tested soy products. Commercial soymilk showed the highest ratio of soluble fiber to total dietary(59%). The higher levels of dietary fiber (20.1 g) and lecithin (1.13 g) were also found in tofu. The lecithin and saponin content of isolated soy protein(ISP) were highest (0.63 g and 0.65 g/ 100 g of dry matter) among the tested samples. In conclusion, soy flour showed the highest level of biologically active compounds, such as saponin, isoflavone, dietary fiber, and soy oligosaccharides. But when the evaluation was based on the serving size, soymilk containing 31.5 mg of isoflavone, 2.59 g of dietary fiber, 0.57 g of oligosaccharides, 0.10 g of lecithin, and 0.11 g of saponin showed similarity to those of the tested soybeans(20 g).

Azuki bean is the important bean crop in Korea, and is traditionally used as a filling material for red bean porridge, rice cakes, and bread, as well as for sediment. So far, the National Insititute of Crop Science has developed azuki bean varieties for various uses, such as for sediment, tea, and azuki bean sprouts. Among azuki bean elite lines, 25 strains were used to analyze the correlation between red bean quality characteristics and sediment yield. The crude protein of red beans was 25.0-28.9%, ash content was 3.8-5.3%, and fat was 0.4-1.0%. As for the appearance quality characteristics of azuki bean, one hundred seed weight was 11.1-19.5 g, the length of seed was 6.45-8.49 mm, the width seed was 4.84-6.45 mm, and the withd/lenght ratio was 0.72-0.89. When the azuki bean were boiled, the thickness of the seed coat was 0.14-0.27 mm and the length ratio of seed was 0.65-0.76 mm, showing that the length of seed was slightly larger than the width. The yield of azuki bean sediment was 239-284% for whole red bean paste, and 144-203% for fine azuki bean paste. As a result of analyzing the correlation between the quality characteristics of azuki beans, such as protein, husk and seed weight, and the yield of azuki bean sediment, the yield of whole azuki bean sediment showed a negative correlation with the seed coat thickness and the length ratio of the original grain at -0.62 and -0.45, respectively. The yield of fine sediment showed a negative correlation with the length ratio of whole azuki beans at -0.49, and a positive correlation with that of white beans at 0.41. However, protein and ash content did not show any correlation with sediment yield. In view of the above results, it is thought that it would be better to have a high seed weight or a low width/length ratio of seed to develope azuki bean cultivar for sediment.

Objective : This study aims to determine the optimal dose of recombinant-human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) for successful bone fusion in minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion (MIS LLIF). Previous studies show that rhBMP is an effective alternative to autologous iliac crest bone graft, but the optimal dose remains uncertain. The study analyzes the fusion rates associated with different rhBMP doses to provide a recommendation for the optimal dose in MIS LLIF. Methods : Ninety-three patients underwent MIS LLIF using demineralized bone matrix (DBM) or a mixture of rhBMP-2 and DBM as fusion material. The group was divided into the following three groups according to the rhBMP-2 usage : group A, only DBM was used (n=27); group B, 1 mg of rhBMP-2 per 5 mL of DBM paste (n=41); and group C, 2 mg of rhBMP-2 per 5 mL of DBM paste (n=25). Demographic data, clinical outcomes, postoperative complication and fusion were assessed. Results : At 12 months post-surgery, the overall fusion rate was 92.3% according to Bridwell fusion grading system. Groups B and C, who received rhBMP-2, had significantly higher fusion rates than group A, who received only DBM. However, there was no significant increase in fusion rate when the rhBMP-2 dosage was increased from group B to group C. The groups B and C showed significant improvement in back pain and Oswestry disability index compared to the group A. The incidence of screw loosening was decreased in groups B and C, but there was no significant difference in the occurrence of other complications. Conclusion : Usage of rhBMP-2 in LLIF surgery leads to early and increased final fusion rates, which can result in faster pain relief and return to daily activities for patients. The benefits of using rhBMP-2 were not significantly different between the groups that received 1 mg/5 mL and 2 mg/5 mL of rhBMP-2. Therefore, it is recommended to use 1 mg of rhBMP-2 with 5 mL of DBM, taking both economic and clinical aspects into consideration.

Processing conditions of retort pouched fried mackerel fish meat paste and quality stability during storage were investigated. The reasonable amounts of added ingredients to the frozen mackerel meat paste were $10\%$ of corn starch, $1\%$ of soybean protein, $1.5\%$ of sodium chloride, $0.6\%$ of monosodium glutamate, $0.3\%$ of alcoholic extract of red pepper, and $0.1\%$ of sodium erythorbate as an antioxidant and also added water corresponding to $10\%$ of the frozen mackerel meat paste. After grinding the defrosted mackerel fish meat paste with ingredients, the meat paste was molded in bar type and fried in soybean oil at $170-180^{\circ}C$ for 3 minutes. The fried mackerel meat paste was cooled, vacuum-packed in laminated plastic film bag (polyester/polyvinylidene chloride/unoriented polypropylene : $12{\mu}m/15{\mu}/50{\mu}m,\;14{\times}19cm$) and finally sterilized at $120^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes in a hot water circulating retort. The pH, volatile basic nitrogen, moisture content, water activity, color, thiobarbituric acid value, peroxide value, texture and viable bacterial count of products were examined during 100 days of storage at $25{\pm}3^{\circ}C\;and\;5^{\circ}C$. The results showed that products could be preserved in good condition for 100 days at $25{\pm}3^{\circ}C$. Judging from sensory evaluation, the quality of products was not inferior to that of market products.
