The fatty acid composition, selected minor components, and the oxidative stability of the mixed edible oil (perilla seed oil and rice bran oil, 3:7 (v/v)) were analyzed. The fatty acid composition of the mixed oil was 32.1% of oleic acid, 30.6% of linoleic acid, 21.4% of linolenic acid, 13.0% of palmitic acid, and 1.7% of stearic acid. The mixed oil contained ${\alpha}$, ${\gamma}$ and ${\delta}$-tocopherols and tocotrienols showing the highest contents of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. Total amount of tocopherols contained in the mixed oil was 46.63 mg/100 g oil. The composition and content of phytosterols were determined by a GC equipped with a flame ionization detector. Total quantity of phytosterols in the mixed oil was 712.80 mg/100 g oil. The most predominant phytosterol in the mixed oil was ${\beta}$-sitosterol, followed by campesterol and stigmasterol, in a decreasing order. The oxidative stability of the mixed oil was much higher than that of perilla oil, and similar to that of soybean oil, indicating the high oxidative stability of the mixed oil.

This study was carried out to evaluate the possibility of citron seed as industrial resource by analyzing chemical properties and the antioxidant activity. Crude lipid content of citron seed was $35.29{\pm}0.18%$. Total mineral content in citron seed was 1171.64 mg/100g and the potassium content ($637.99{\pm}5.38mg/100g$) was the highest. The contents of total phenols and flavonoids in citrus seed were $24.44{\pm}1.10mg/100g$ and $2.27{\pm}0.18mg/100g$, respectively. The electron donating ability using DPPH, hydroxy radical scavenging activity and SOD-like activity were increased significantly by increased the sample concentration in the reaction mixture. The nitrite scavenging ability was dependent on pH of reaction mixture and sample concentration. It was higher activity at pH 1.2 than pH 4.2. During the storage of soybean oil, the peroxide and acid values of the oil were significantly increased regardless of addition of citron extract. But antioxidant activity of soybean oil added with ethanol extract from citron seed was superior to that of control (sample with no addition) at 16 days of storage.

In order to find out the effects of the time and degree of defoliation on the seed yield, oil content and fatty acid composition of perilla seed, two cultivars, Namhae and Geumnung, were grown in two years, 1985 and 1987. Defoliation was initiated after 110 days from sowing with two-week interval. Defoliation degree was manipulated into four levels i.e. 0, 25, 50 and 75 per cent based on the total leaf area per plant. The results are summarized as follows: Flowering date, maturing date, culm length, culm diameter and branch numbers were not significantly influenced by the defoliation time and degrees, but by the cultivars. The higher levels of defoliation was made, the lower seed yield and 1000-seed were obtained, and either the earlier or the later time of defoliation, the less influence on seed yield were observed for both cultivars. Severe defoliation caused a significant decrease in oil content. The composition of unsaturated and saturated fatty acids was significantly decreased by severe defoliation (above 25 per cent). In conclusion, with a view to achieving higher seed yield and oil content with good quality, it is advisable to defoliate perilla leaf less than 25 per cent based on total leaf area at either or later growth stages.

Although traditional Korean diet consists of Very little fats and oils, the increase of their consumption, especially vegetable oil, has been truly remarkable in recent years and this increase is attributed to the improvement of their dietary habit and the development of Korean food industry. On the other hand, domestic production of the edible vegetable oil did not increase at all. Naturally, foreign exchange (over a several hundred million U.S. dollars) is annually used in importing oil seed and/or oil per se. Under these circumstances, it is of utmost importance to maximize the domestic production of edible vegetable oil, although its complete self-sufficiency cannot be achieved. In this seminar, intake of fats and oils by Korean people, status and outlook of the domestic production and consumption of fats and oils will be discussed, with. emphasis on the utilization of agricultural by products and waste as a source of fats and oil.

Grape seeds have recently been utilized for the production of seed oil. Grape seed oils (GSOs) are generating increasing interest as a functional food product since it has been shown to contain high levels of vitamin E, unsaturated fatty acids, and phytosterols. The objective of this study was to determine the compositions of vitamin E, fatty acids, and phytosterols in commercially available grape seed oils in Korea. Vitamin E was analyzed by HPLC with fluorometric detector and phytosterol and fatty acid composition was analyzed by GC. GSOs contained total vitamin E in the range of 34.6 to 66.1 mg/100 g oil and high levels of tocotrienols. The GSOs are mainly composed of linoleic acid ranging from 60 to 76%. GSOs also contained $77.0{\sim}166.9\;mg$ of phytosterols/100 g oil.

In order to elucidate the interaction effect between temperature and moisture content on the oil expression of perilla seed, recovery of expressed oil (REO) and volumetric strain of pressed cake (VSPC) of both roasted and unroasted perilla seeds were observed at different temperatures of 30, 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$, and different moisture contents of 2.5, 4.5, 6.5 and 8.5% (w.b). And duration of press was 11 min and applied pressure was 50 MPa. At the low temperature REO and VSPC of roasted and unroasted perilla seed increased in high moisture content and at the high temperature those increased in low moisture content. But REO and VSPC at 8.5% moisture content were decreased without relation to temperature. From the analysis of variance between expression factors and REO and VSPC, temperature and moisture contents showed high significance. Also the interaction effect between temperature and moisture content was higher than temperature. In our experimental conditions, the highest interaction effect between expression factors was observed in the range of $2.5{\sim}4.5%$ of moisture content in all temperatures. The maximum REO of unroasted perilla seeds was observed as 84.4% at 2.5% of moisture content and $60^{\circ}C$, and that of roasted one was as 84.3% at 6.5% of moisture content and $30^{\circ}C$.

Vegetable oils are a rich source of bioactive substances. Phytosterols in those have been known for many years for their properties for reducing blood cholesterol levels, as well as their other beneficial health effects. Phytosterols are triterpenes that are important structural components of plant cell membranes just as cholesterol does in animal cell membranes. The aim of this study was to provide consumers with information about phytosterol contents in vegetable oils in Korea market. The contents of major phytosterols (campesterol, stigmasterol, β-sitosterol) in 50 vegetable oils of 10 kinds (perilla oil, peanut oil, avocado oil, olive oil, pine nut oil, sesame oil, canola oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil, and sunflower oil) were analyzed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detector. The average contents of vegetable oils containing 5 or more samples were in the order of sesame oil (334.43 mg/100 g), perilla oil (262.16 mg/100 g), grape seed oil (183.71 mg/100 g), and olive oil (68.68 mg/100 g). Phytosterol content of sesame oil and perilla oil was high among vegetable oils.

The effect of water deficits on soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] could appear on seed quality through changes of morphological plant characteristics. Two Korean genotypes, Hwangkeum (determinate growth habit) and Muhan (indeterminate growth habit), were used to examine the influences of treatment stage and method of water deficit during reproductive growth period on yield and seed quality of soybean. Water deficit at R5 or R6 stages was as damaging to seed quality as double water-deficit treatments at R2+R5 or R2+R6. However, seed from double water-deficit treatment tended to have lower oxidation-reduction potential compare to the corresponding single water-deficit treatment. In comparison with Muhan, Hwangkeum had significantly greater oxidation-reduction potential value. Seed yield per plant in both genotypes depended greatly on seed yield of branches. However, the proportion of number of branch seed to total seed umber in Hwangkeum was increased as the water deficit was applied during later reproductive stage, whereas, in Muhan the proportion was lower. Water-deficit treatments including the single and double water-deficit treatments and non-stressed treatment were able to be classified into five groups for Hwangkeum and four groups for Muhan based on the influences on yield components, number of pod, number of seed, and single seed weight, using principal component analysis. In both genotypes, R2+R5 water-deficit treatment decreased number of pod and seed, but increased single seed weight. On the contrary, R6 or R2+R6 stress increased the pod and seed number, but decreased single seed weight.

Most transformer use insulating and cooling fluids derived from petroleum crude oil, but mineral oil is some possibility of environmental pollution and fire with explosion. vegetable oil fluids extracted from seed has superior biodegradation and fire-resistant properties including an exceptionally high fire point enhancing fire safety. In this study, it is aimed at the practicality of substituting natural ester dielectric fluid for mineral oil in liquid insulation system of transformers. As a rise in coil winding temperature has a direct influence on transformer life time, it is important to evaluate the temperature rise of coil winding in vegetable oil in comparison with mineral oil. Three transformers for the test are designed with 10KVA, 13.2KV, one phase unit. The temperature are directly measured in insulating oil of these transformers with the two sorts of natural ester and mineral oil dielectric fluid respectively. Temperature of vegetable oil transformers was similar to temperature of mineral oil transformer in the same design at 80% load and above.

Among polyunsaturated fatty acids (PURAs) targeted for manipulation in animal tissues (poultry eggs and meat), omega-3 PUFAs(n-3 PUFAs) are discussed in this review. 3 or 5% dietary menhaden oil (MO) supplemented layer diets was reported to increase docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) contents in the egg. MO at 1.5% also increased the deposition of up to 180mg total omega-3 fatty acids / yolk. Utilization of 5% ground flax seed (FS) resulted in similar total omega-3 fatty acid (FA) deposition as 1.5% MO. However, the basic feed formulations used in the Canadian feed industry usually include 10 to 20% FS in the egg laying diets. Recently several studies reported that addition of tocopherols in layer diets increased the tocopherol content more in the egg than any other tissue. One of reports said that 3.5% dietary oil with added tocopherols resulted in increasing tocopherol deposition and FA composition of the egg and other tissues. In the poultry meat, redfish meal (RM;4, 8, 12, 15 and 30% of diet) or redfish oil (RO;2.1 or 4.2% of diet) added to the practical corn-wheat-soybean based diets resulted in an increase in omega-3 FA and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) contents in broiler meat lipids. Linseed oil (LO;1.0, 2.5, and 5.0% of broiler diet) supplemented in broiler diets also resulted in omega-3 FA and the ratio of omega-6 being significantly higher in poultry meat lipid than MO. Concern about fish flavor resulted in research about fish oil (FO) supplementation in broiler diets. Without the use of antioxidants, no more than 1.5% FO should be fed to broilers due to unacceptable orders from the chicken carcasses. One recent research project found that over 50mg/kg of vitamin E was required for maintaining the stability of unsaturated lipids in the meat. In regards to 'fishy'or 'crabby'taint in the eggs and poultry meat, poultry products remained acceptable when dietary fish oils were stabilized with antioxidants.
