An rat liver enzyme test was carried out in order to investigate preventing effect of selested amino acids and some food extracts on ethanol induced liver toxicity in vitro. Solutions of aspartic acid, arginine, glutamic acid were prepared and treated on ethanol treated rat liver preparation. Protective effect of amino acids on lipid peroxidation was determined. Same experiments were conducted using aqueous extracts of Dried soybean sprout, Dried Alaskan pollack and Ganoderma lucidum. The TBA value indicating the lipid peroxidation decreased significantly (p<0.05) by addition of aspartate, glutamate and arginine, repectively at concentrations of $6.25{\sim}50\;{\mu}g/mL$. Similar results were observed by adding the aqueous extracts of Soybean sprout, dried Alaskan pollack and Ganoderma lucidum. The aqueous extracts added after ethanol treatment presemted more effect than added before the treatment.

Soyasaponin I, II, III and V contents were investigated in seed, cotyledons and sprouts of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merill) subjected to germination over five days. High-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometric (HPLC-MS/MS) method was used to evaluate the content of soyasaponins. Soyasaponins contents were different according to the varieties. Germination of soybeans dramatically increased soyasaponin contents in soybean sprouts in a time-dependent manner. Cotyledons had a higher contents of soyasaponins compared to dried seed (p<0.05). After five days of germination, Soyasaponin I and II increased 10 times higher after germination. Soyasaponin I and II are major metabolites in cotyledons and hypocotyls. Soyasaponin III and V were also detected in seed and increased depended on the germination stage. Soyasaponin V was at its highest levels in the hypocotyl, almost 7 times higher than the initial content in soybean seeds. Therefore, the germination of soybean sprouts significantly increased soyasaponin content.

This research was carried to investigate the food preference of students, from elementary school, middle school, high school, university and industrial workers on Jinju, Sacheon and Jinyang by age and sex. The results were obtained as follows. In case of rice as the stationary food, plain white boiled rice showed the highest preference among all the groups. Most of groups liked most of one-dish meals such as kimbab, fried rice with kimchi, dumplings and bibimbab, especially the elementary school students and middle school students. On the other hand, high percentage of industrial workers disliked the western food such as pizza, hamburger and sphagetti. Most of subjects liked jajangmun, nangmun and bibimgooksu as noodles. As the side dishes generally they prefer the soup to stew. Male prefer the soup with beef and female prefer soup with vegetables. Stew with kimchi and stew with soybean paste showed high preference among most of groups. Most of broil food showed high preference, and students prefer meat to fish as broil cooking materials especially younger students. As a general they liked soybean sprout, spinach and wild sesame leaf as namul cooking method and they liked korean cabbage kimchi, chonggak kimchi, kackdoogi and dongchimi as kimchi. As a dessert subjects liked most of fruits and they liked yoghurt, fruit juice, milk, sikhae and soda as drinks generally. On the other hand snacks such as cooky, candy, cake, corn, rice cake, sweet potato have the lowest percentage preferance as a dessert, but students from elementary schools showed the highest preferance to sweet such as cooky, cake and candy than any other group. These food preferance results showed some nutritional problems especially young age students. They should eat more green-yellow vegetables, liver food and dried small sardine and they should reduce snacks such as candy and cooky and soda drinks. Therefore it is necessary to conduct nutrition education by parents, teachers and dietician together to improve their food habits and their health.
