This study investigated sensory characteristics and cross-cultural consumer acceptability of sweet crispy chicken (Dakgangjeong) prepared with six types of Korean-style sauces among Korean and Chinese consumers. The main ingredient(s) of each sauce was soy sauce (SOY), Japanese apricot extract and soy sauce (JASOY), gochujang (SPICY), minced garlic (GARL), and ketchup (KET-I and KET-II); KET-I and KET-II were modified to possess ethnic Korean flavors. In general, Korean and Chinese consumers preferred all types of Dakgangjeong, except for GARL and SPICY, respectively. Least preferred products of each country had the lowest familiarity rating among consumers of the respective countries. Similar to previous studies, these results showed that familiarity is an important factor affecting consumer preference in a cross-cultural context. Particularly, it was found that higher familiarity of the product was not found to influence consumer to like a product, but rather low familiarity seemed to affect consumers to reject a product.

The mechanisms of aflatoxin $B_1(AFB_1)$ degradation by ammonia and alkaline pH during the storage of Korean soy sauces were studied. In the 0.05%, 0.1% and 0.5% of ammonia solutions, almost all of $AFB_1$(96-100%) was degraded after 2 to 24 hrs of incubation at $30^{\circ}C$. Increased levels of ammonia in both home made soy sauce(HMSS) and commercial soy sauce(CSS) caused slow increases in pH. The pH change was higher in CSS than in HMSS. The degradations of $AFB_1$ were not observed in the samples of HMSS, CSS, distilled water and 20 % of NaCl solution during the storage, however, when the pHs of the samples were adjusted to 10, the toxin was completely removed in all samples. $AFB_1$ was stable at pH 5 and 7 in bath buffer solutions and buffer solutions+0.2% ammonia, however, $AFB_1$ was degraded completely at pHs more than 9. $AFB_1$ was not degraded even at high concentrations of ammonia(0.2-1.0%) when the pH was maintained at 7 in the buffer solution. It indicated that ammonia content in the system was not important but the higher pH was the reason to degrade $AFB_1$. When the pHs of HMSS, CSS, buffersolution and buffer solution + 0.2% ammonia were adjusted to 5 and then reacted with $AFB_1$ for 5 days, the toxin was stable in all samples. However, when the pHs of the samples were adjusted to 7, about 60-70 % of $AFB_1$ was degraded in HMSS and CSS after 5 days of incubation during which the pH was not changed, but $AFB_1$ in the buffer solution and buffer solution + 0.2% ammonia was not degraded at all in the same conditions.

The effect and osmotic characteristics of sugars for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ were examined and their results obtained were as follows. (1) The best effective sugars for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ were inulin, fructose and maltose. (2) Glucose, saccharose, galactose and arabinose were more effective on the media containing 20 percent of NaCl than containing none of NaCl, while fructose, inulin, xylose, sorbitol, raffinose, mannitol, mannose, trehalose and rhamnose were more effective on the media containing none of NaCl. (3) Maltose and lactose were excellent for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ as addition of 5 to 10 percent on the media containing NaCl and more good in case of 15 percent or more addition on the media containing none of NaCl. (4) Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ was generally grown well on the media at the range of containing 15 to 30 percent of sugar concentration. (5) Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ was grown up to 80 percent concentration of glucose and 90 of saccharose and maltose.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the color penetration of cavity margin with composite resin restorations in some Korean foods substance-soy sauce and hot bean paste. Fifty specimans which were extracted caries free third molar of young adults recently. All of the prepared 100 cavities were filled with two kinds of composite resin (Hipol$^{(R)}$and Restodent$^{(R)}$). The experimental specimans were divided into five groups by the following procedures. Group I : Filling of composite resin and polishing. Group II : Filling, polishing, etching of cavity and sealing. Group III : Etching, sealing, filling and polishing. Group IV : Etching, sealing, filling, polishing, and repeated of etching of cavity margin and sealing. Group V : Etching, sealing, filling, polishing, and sealing again without etching. Before examination, the restorated teeth were subjected to thermal cycling ($4^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$). All the specimens were immersed in soy and 30% hot bean paste solution under $37^{\circ}C$ incubator during six weeks. Then, the specimens were sectioned bucco-lingually through the center of two restorations with diamond disk and examined under a. metallographic microscope. (Union 6617 U.S.A.) Thereafter, the degree of color penetration was calculated and analyzed. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The color penetration was the lowest in the procedure of Group III which was acid etching, sealing, composite resing filling, and polishing. 2. The color penetration occured in soy and hot bean paste, but the degree of penetration was not so significant statistically between them. 3. The degree of color penetration was not so significant statistically between Hipol$^{(R)}$ and Restondent$^{(R)}$.

In order to increase the availability of filefish scrap, the ordinary and low salt sauce were prepared, and identified their taste compounds in their products. To process the filefish scrap sauce, chopped filefish scrap was mixed with koji, 25% brine, slat and glucose (25.0 : 65.0 : 12.5 : 7.0, w/w) and fermented at $25{\pm}4^{\circ}C$ for 120 days. The same process was also carried out to process the low salt sauce adding sorbitol, lactic acid and ethyl alcohol (7.0 : 0.7 : 9.0. w/w) instead of salt. While amino nitrogen and volatile basic nitrogen(VBN) of products were decreased, pH and reducing sugar were increased all alone the fermentation period. The major free amino acids of products at final stage of fermentation were glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, lysine and aspartic acid. And the contents of total amino acid in the ordinary and low salt sauce were 4126.6(mg/100m1 sauce), 4519.5(mg/100m1 sauce) after fermentation. Hypoxanthine was revealed as the major constituent among nucleotides and their related compounds through fermentation. Free amino acid-N in the filefish scrap sauces were from 56.3%(ordinary) to 60.7%(low salted) of extractive nitrogen. From the sensory evaluation, the quality of products from filefish scrap sauce were almost equal to sold soy sauce on the market.

Soyfoods have potential roles in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, most notably cancer, osteoporosis, and heart disease. There is evidence that carcinogenesis are supressed by isolated soybean derived products in vivo such as a protease inhibitor, phytic acid, saponins and isoflavones. It is believed that supplementation of human diets with soybean products markedly reduces human cancer mortality rates. Especially, recent papers recognize the potential benefit of soybean isoflavone components for reducing the risk of various cancers. Isoflavones exhibit a multitude of medicinal effects that influence cell growth and regulation, which may have potential value in the prevention and treatment of cancer. In addition to potential biological effects, soybean isoflavones have the important physiological functions such as the induction of Bradyrizobium japonicum nod genes and the responses of soybean tissues to infection by Phytophthora megasperma as well as biochemical activities such as antifungal and antibacterial actions. Genistin, daidzin, glycitin and their aglycone (genistein, daidzein, glycitein) are the principal isoflavones found in soybean. Malonyl and acetyl forms have also been detected but they are thermally unstable and are usually transformed during the processing in glucoside form. Most soy products, with the exception of soy sauce, alcohol-extracted soy protein concentrate, and soy protein isolate, have total isoflavone concentrations similar to those in the whole soybean. Soybean-containing diets inhibit mammary tumorigenesis in animal models of breast cancer, therefore, it is possible that dietary isoflavones are an important factor accounting for the lower incidence and mortality from breast cancer. Of the total soybean seed isoflavones, $80\~90\%$ were located in cotyledons, with the remainder in the hypocotyls. The hypocotyls had a higher concentrations of isoflavones on a weight basis compared with cotyledons. Isoflavone contents were influenced by genetics, crop years, and growth locations. The effect of crop year had a greater impact on the isoflavone contents than that of location. The climate condition might be the attribution factor to variation in isoflavone contents. Also, while the isoflavone content of cotyledons exhibited large variations in response to high temperature during seed development, hypocotyls showed high concentration in isoflavone content. So, it is concluded that one of the factors affecting isoflavone content in soybean seeds is temperature during seed development. High temperature, especially in maturity stage, causes lower isoflavone content in soybean seed. It is also suggested that there may exist a different mechanism to maintain isoflavone contents between cotyledon and seed hypocotyls. In a conclusion, soy foods may be able to have a significant beneficial impact on public health.

Cultural conditions for mass production of the antagonistic bacteria, Bacillus subtills CAP134 against pathogens causing major airborne diseases to apple tree, effect of temperature, pH, carbon and nitrogen source in the culture broth were investigated. The bacterial growth was most vigorous when the temperature and pH of the culture broth was 30~$35^{\circ}$C, and 7, respectively. As for carbon source, dextrose was best followed in order by dextrose(monosaccharides)>sucrose(disaccharides)$\geq$saccharose(di-saccharides)>starch (polysaccharides). Among different sugars, bacterial growth was favored by in the order of brown, black and white sugars, indicating that the bacterial growth might be promoted by the minor elements presented as impurities in the less purified sugars. As for nitrogen source, organic forms were better to bacterial growth than inorganic forms, that is polypeptone was best followed in order by soy sauce, soybeen milk and inoganic nitrogens. Differences in bacterial growth among different forms of inorganic nitrogen were negligible.
